Prospects and challenges of penalties for economic crime in Cuba

Abstract

The present work is a study of the system of penalties imposed in cases of economic crime in Cuba. We use the legal-historical method to address the genesis of our study object and its variations over time. The legal-doctrinal method is also used, which entails reviewing the concepts and institutions involved in the procedures, together with their doctrinal, jurisprudential and practical aspects, in order to enter into the subject in greater depth and provide related information. These methods are used to discuss past and present research into economic crime, and the various theoretical and ideological approaches to an issue that is currently at the center of debate due to its serious consequences.
