The Cuban Family Code went through numerous revisions during this decade.

 

While on the books, it was not always easy to implement. Despite the Cuban Family Law, many women still have to contend with both full time housework and full time waged labor. In this sense, Cuba is not unlike that other country 90 miles away, where women also have to contend with overlapping paradigms of traditional and modern womanhood.
