The scenario was ideal to jointly present
and distribute the magazine Identities in
Miami. A particularly substantial
exchange took place for a full hall of
compatriots on both sides of the Florida
Straits, who talked to each other in a
frank and respectful way, even in cases
of conflicting criteria, as the precepts of
Deliberative Democracy advise.
Thusly the fifth meeting provided a
strong conviction to the expectant
children of Cuba: that finally a
promissory light becomes visible in the
depths of the tunnel. At the same time,
this meeting gave to the world enough

evidence that all is not lost for Cubans,
if we can thrive from the experiences of
Deliberative Democracy.
Meanwhile the Castro regime strives
increasingly to conceal its lack of
interest before the urgent need to
introduce
structural
changes
to
responsibly advance towards progress.
To top it off, the regime does not even
impose its power with a minimum of
rationality, since it now denies, rejects,
proscribes and pursues the practice of
the pure and civilized principles of
Deliberative Democracy
