The appointment, at the first Congress in 14 years was the way for more private companies with a Blizzard of changes. Taken together, the revolution, 53, to draw the President Raul Castro, led to a declining economy and even in the estimation of a midlife crisis meant stagnant think the actions.
But Mr Castro, for all his discourse on the need for, the system in the end many of them colleagues rejuvenate with the old guard officers, for now.
He, Fidel Castro, said "The rebel army is the soul of the revolution", to quote his brother.
President Castro, 79, had hinted that he is a young up and comer, a post-Castro era lead can select. Instead, he knocked a party of stalwart, José Ramón Machado, 80, fought at his side in the mountains during the rebellion.
Mr Castro, however, several persons younger than 70 of the Central Committee and three to 15 Member of the Politburo, including the architect who maintain the current round of economic changes, you may call them for larger roles.
Mr Castro recognized that young leader, was behind his generation in the preparation, that Cuba was "Take a reserve of alternative substances with sufficient maturity and experience to the most important tasks of the country."
Some analysts dispute, which say that Mr Castro's moves only his power against all signs of that young and perhaps are too progressive solidified.
"What it means is generational change and the implementation of reforms will be - headed by the 'Territories' or perhaps better put, constrained by the history of the Cuban revolution and the memories and aims of its founders,", said Christopher Sabatini, a scholar of Cuba, Americas quarterly edited.
Fidel Castro, 84, who had been absent from the proceedings and a parade over the weekend, looked up, dressed in a dark warm up suit over a checkered shirt, and sometimes by helpers if he stand to gossip, which he particularly energetic action helped for his brother.
Mr participant age doubts because some people, that he would succeed President Castro. Instead as a trusted Lieutenant, he can play a key role in the, select the end may and see what structure it can govern.
Apart from fellow fighters during the revolution, Mr. Machado can an attractive option to Mr Castro his role supervision of the inner workings of the party, which approved an Office promotions and development links with party leaders in the island been Arturo Lopez-Levy, lecturer at the University of Denver and former policy analyst in the Cuban Interior Ministry said.
Mr. Lopez-Levy said "Machado a decisive factor in the choice of not only the successor, but also the structure of the Division of powers, replace within the party and between the party and Government, the current model of"Castro in command,"".
"Below the street, the old leader only some time won," he said. "They used wisely it?" The Congress gave some hope the members of the Group and the population of a serious economic reform. "Now the old generation would need to respond further in power to these expectations."
President Castro, as expected, took the top position of the party and a list of the leadership changes made official his brother's departure from the ranks of the party he founded read. Fidel Castro, cheered heartily by party members, announced last month that he no longer first Secretary of the party, but his name still on lists appeared.
President Castro, represented apart from offers the usual lashing words towards the United States, the changes as an upgrade of Cuban socialism instead of restarting the capitalism could open the way to the RESA.
"I'm assuming to defend my contribution, to preserve and further to perfect socialism and never allow the return of capitalism," said Mr Castro close in a speech of the Congress.
Congress Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Republican of Florida, which leave, responded in kind, Cuba as a girl in the early 1960s demonstrated the passions that can generate the leadership of Cuba under many exiled.
"The so-called 'Congress' the Communist Party of anything other than a Congress, such as the agenda and all decisions prior to the decision and aging dictators agreed," she said in a statement. "The Cuban people deserve much better than this old and tired despot who refuse to accept that they have failed miserably."
Although the Congress approved some 300 changes to the law, and may, a practice banned the sale and purchase of houses, since the revolution and the eventual elimination or reduction of State subsidies such as ration cards for basic needs, details were not disclosed. Get the results of the National Assembly, and it is generally expected that it will ratify them.
On the streets was a response of either a lack of understanding of how the changes would be carried out or the fear of speaking openly to a foreign to a place that will tolerate on the whole, not dissent is muted.
The document which party delegate allegedly discussed for the past four days was never publicly released, Cubans caught a glimpse of you and what decided also only in the evening news broadcast as summaries of the proceedings.
If a casual look in living room was any indication, it seems a good many people to see found other programs.
"If all this improves the conditions here, then of course, we are", said Juana Ortiz, 44. "be done, who can argue with the fact something and need to have the young a role?"
