Abstract

In many ways the development of physical anthropology in Cuba paralleled the history of the discipline in other countries—until the successful Cuban revolution of the late 1950s. The overthrow of the Batista regime by forces led by Fidel Castro had little immediate academic effect because reform was initially concentrated on social, economic, and political spheres. Eventually, however, the revolution greatly influenced the direction of higher education and of science in Cuba.
