            Abstract

            In the United States in particular, but also in Western countries, since 1959, Cuban emigration has been the subject of two consensuses. First, the Cuban Revolution would have resulted in a significant migratory movement towards the United States. Then, this would reflect the rejection of the process of social transformation structured around a one-party political system put in place by Fidel Castro. The migration statistics of the US authorities, available for the period from 1860 to 2019, will shed light on this question by comparing the various flows from Cuba at different times (1860–1959, 1960–1989, 1990–2019). Likewise, a comparative analysis of migratory flows emitted by the countries of the region will assess the relevance of these two hypotheses.

            En los Estados Unidos en particular, pero también en los países occidentales, desde 1959, la emigración cubana es objeto de dos consensos. Primero, la Revolución cubana habría ocasionado un importante movimiento migratorio hacia los Estados Unidos. Luego, éste sería el reflejo del rechazo del proceso de transformación social estructurado en torno a un sistema político con partido único elaborado por Fidel Castro. Las estadísticas migratorias de las autoridades estadounidenses, disponibles para el período que va de 1860 a 2019, permitirán arrojar una luz sobre esta cuestión comparando los distintos flujos procedentes de Cuba en diferentes épocas (1860–1959, 1960–1989, 1990–2019). Del mismo modo, un análisis comparativo de las corrientes migratorias emitidas por los países de la región evaluará la pertinencia de estas dos hipótesis.
