In the last five decades, the Cuban society has evolved from a primarily agricultural economy to a more industrialised one It is looking for more interactions with outside world. The cigars which were seen as one of the manifestations of the godfather movie brought into the limelight this critical luxury.  Cuban cigar is also seen as a luxury item. Many a times the sugar producing nations also feel that Cuba is one of the main competitors in the global sugarcane market. When one tries to peek at global society and tries to evaluate it from global perspective then the whole concept of living sustainable life with minimal demands comes into being. during the recent G-20 summit the whole concept of sustained living while reducing carbon footprint was buttressed repeatedly. 

Cuban society is a unique melting pot of Spanish, Caribbean, and African cultures and it is manifested in the music, food, art, and architecture of the society. Cigar has been integral part of the society and baseball is one of the favourite games. Even Cuban rum is one of the engaging things which most of the tourist try to venture into. Baseball has been discussed at regional and national level. It is a passion for many, and locals play it with panache. In terms of dance forms salsa is one of the important manifestations of unique Cuban dance skills and is one of the most popular dance forms in Cuba. Other dance forms such as Rumba and Mambo are the other two dances which are practiced in the Cuban society. 

Cuba has allowed mass organizations which includes workers central union of Cuba federation of Cuban women and many others which promote interactions between civil society organizations and working towards addressing those issues related to better social life and preserving the socialist welfare model.

This is much larger than many of the capitalist economies at the global level.

The adaptation and implementation are still in elementary stages.  Cuba has done remarkably well in terms of containing the impact of corona virus and has been looking for containing inflation and providing food security to all the citizens. The US embargo on Cuba has been voted down by countries like Vietnam and Brazil in the United Nations to improve better international interactions between Cuba and the global community.
