El objetivo de este artículo es analizar las intersecciones entre economías orientadas al turismo y las políticas de desarrollo local y de infraestructuras en el contexto de un país del socialismo (tardío). Mi propósito es demostrar cómo turismo, considerado en general como un mecanismo de profundizar las desigualdades social y crear desigualdades nuevas, se utiliza como una herramienta para promover el desarrollo comunitario y atraer atención a varios problemas sociales en el contexto del socialismo tardío en Cuba. Mi investigación está basada en una literatura extensa que considera el impacto de las transformaciones turísticas en Cuba, pero al mismo tiempo, las confronta con una reflexión crítica sobre la ideología de la revolución cubana y estrategias de trabajo comunitario.

The aim of this article is to consider intersections between tourism-oriented economies and the politics of infrastructure and community development in a (late) socialist country. I argue that although tourism is usually considered a mechanism that deepens existing inequalities and creates new ones, in the context of late socialist Cuba it becomes a resource that the creation of new ideas for community development and brings attention to various social issues. My research builds on a rich body of work that considers the impact of touristic transformations in Cuba while linking it to the critical reflection on Cuban revolutionary ideology and strategies of community engagement.
