Description and Table of Contents
Description
As Communist regimes throughout Eastern Europe collapse, the author examines the relevance of Marxism and socialism for Latin America and the Caribbean. The author discusses recent revolutionary regimes and attempts at socialist transformation in the region in terms of Marxist theory, comparing them with the historical experiences of the Soviet Union, China, Yugoslavia and Vietnam. Particular attention is given to revolutionary Cuba, the Allende administration in Chile, the regime in Nicaragua, and contemporary leftist parties throughout Latin America.
