内容説明
Examining in detail Fidel Castro's prolific output of writings and speeches, this book sets out to show how his ideas reflect the events and issues of his times, and how his words show the impact of this influential leader and custodian of the revolution on Latin American revolutionary thought in particular, and beyond that on Third World revolutionary Marxism in its wider context. The author discusses the European and Latin American intellectual origins of Castro's ideological development, and probes his views on a wide range of central and controversial issues such as capitalism, reolutionary movements, the Cuban-Soviet relationship, and the role of the United States in exacerbating the region's social ills.

内容説明
The author of this book takes a highly original approach to understanding the past three decades of Cuban historyhe offers an analysis and interpretation of the prolific writings and speeches of Fidel Castro and of numerous interviews with him. Through Castros own words, Sheldon Liss examines the evolution of the Cuban leaders political and social ideas and evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the Revolution. Liss first illuminates how intellectuals and political activists, such as Jos Mart, Antonio Guiteras, and Ernesto Che Guevara, influenced Fidels ideological development. Next, he examines the Cuban and European origins of Castros political philosophy, probes his views on the deficiencies inherent in capitalism, and details why he established a vanguard Communist party. Throughout the book, Liss places Fidels ideas in international perspective, outlining, for example, his views of the Cuban-Soviet relationship, his reasoning behind Cubas support for revolutionary movements in the Third World, and his thoughts on the role of the United States in exacerbating social ills in Latin America.
Finally, Liss investigates Castros controversial views on democracy, human rights, and freedom of artistic and intellectual expression. The book stands as a fine introduction to Cubas unique brand of Third World Marxism.
