The book interprets the Cuban revolutionary movement from 1868 to
1959 as a continuous process that sought political independence and
social and economic transformation of colonial and neocolonial
structures. Cuba is a symbol of hope for the Third World. The Cuban
Revolution took power from a national elite subordinate to foreign
capital, and placed it in the hands of the people; and it
subsequently developed alternative structures of popular democracy
that have functioned to keep delegates of the people in power.
While Cuba has persisted, the peoples of the Third World, knocked
down by the neoliberal project, have found social movement and
political life, a renewal that is especially evident in Latin
America and the Non-Aligned Movement. At the same time, the
capitalist world-economy increasingly reveals its unsustainability,
and the global elite demonstrate its incapacity to respond to a
multifaceted and sustained global crisis. These dynamics establish
conditions for popular democratic socialist revolutions in the
North.
