Âmbito e conteúdo
The 2014 US-Cuba Policy Change Twitter archive collection contains a data set of tweets collected from the Twitter microblogging platform when President Barack Obama announced on December 17, 2014 that the United States would begin normalizing full diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Cuba after more than half a century of minimal relations. President Obama's announcement included plans to re-establish the US embassy in Havana, allowing official visits of Cuban diplomats and officials to the United States, and increased official dialogue on public policy issues affecting both countries.
During the announcement, the Cuban Heritage Collection collected tweets relating to the hashtags #cuba, #cubapolicy, #cubalibre, #cubausa, #uscuba, and #cubanmiami between December 9, 2014 and January 28, 2015. The tweets collected before the December 17, 2014 announcement by Presidents Obama and Castro represent tweets gathered via the Twitter API seven days prior to the date of first accessing the Twitter stream via the API, a feature allowed by the API. The tweets collected by the Cuban Heritage Collection for this data archive do not represent an exhaustive or complete record of all tweets relating to the targeted hashtags due to restritions on tweet volume accessed via the Twitter API.
This data archive is available for download to the University of Miami community via the University of Miami scholarly repository. The data is presented in JSON structured text files. For information on accessing the archive, see the "Conditions governing access" section of this finding aid.
