Description

In response to the American administrations attempt to isolate Cuba, Fidel Castro delivered a series of speeches designed to radicalize Latin American society. As Latin America experiences more revolutions in Venezuela and Bolivia, and continues to upset Americas plans for neo-liberal imperialism, renowned radical writer and activist Tariq Ali provides a searing analysis of the relevance of Castros message for today.

Reviews

Castro was one of the more extraordinary political figures of the 20th century. A charismatic figure from the developing world, his influence was felt far beyond the shores of Cuba. * Guardian *
A towering international figure whose importance in the 20th century far exceeded what might have been expected from the head of state of a Caribbean island nation of 11 million people. * New York Times *
