Becker Publishes New Cuban Research

Marc Becker, professor of history, recently published two essays on Ecuadorian-Cuban diplomatic relations drawing on research he conducted with the support of a sabbatical research leave, a Faculty Scholarship Grant and a School of Arts and Humanities International Travel Grant: “Ecuador y las relaciones diplomáticas por la paz en el conflicto Cuba–Estados Unidos,” Andares: Revista de Derechos Humanos y de la Naturaleza and “Los misiles de octubre en Ecuador” in “A instantes de la destrucción. La Guerra Fría latinoamericana y la crisis de los misiles en Cuba.” Becker also published “Las escuelas sindicales de Cayambe en la encrucijada entre educación y política” and was recently interviewed on the community radio station WORT in Madison, Wisconsin, on his research on Cuba, which can be found at wortfm.com.
