This brief volume is an eloquent statement on the meaning of
Jose Marti's thought as well as on how his thought has been
harnessed to the needs of ideology in present-day Cuba. Hence, Jose
Marti, the United States, and the Marxist Interpretation of Cuban
History should quite properly be viewed as a contribution to the
sociology of knowledge, and the political processing of the
literature.
Professor Ripoll's volume gives special attention to Marti's
writings on the United States: without sparing the colonialist and
annexationist currents of the times, Marti in his writing
demonstrated a full and balanced sense of pluralist currents in the
United States.
The author sees Marti, in his desire for redemption, as a truer
socialist and revolutionary than those who seek to cloak themselves
in his words. Because Marti believed freedom to be indispensable
for the advancement of society, efforts to hitch Marti to a single
ideological post are considered futile.
