Abstract

The historic instability of pre-Castro politics in Cuba is developed into three hypotheses dealing with a national personality dominated by old order values which tend to be anti-democratic, group-divisive, symbolic as opposed to realistic, and dominated largely by the allure of personalismo, a hypothesized Latin political phenomenon in which personalities obscure the issues. The hypotheses were tested in the analysis of a survey of samples of Cuban- and native-born high school students in Dade County, Florida.
