This themed issue on oral history research in Cuba focuses on how researchers and participants deal with sensitive topics during the interview process. The issue highlights that any topic can be a sensitive topic when interviewing participants who have lived and still live in a communist society. It will offer various reflexive perspectives on the interview process, focusing in particular on how both researcher and participant address such topics, and on how these approaches are later analysed and interpreted by the researcher.
