In this seminal exploration of Che Guevara's contributions to
Marxist thinking, Michael Loewy traces Che's ideas about Marxism
both as they related to Latin America and to more general
philosophical, political, and economic issues. Now revised and
updated, this edition includes a chapter on Guevara's search for a
new paradigm of socialism and a substantive essay by Peter McLaren
on Che's continued relevance today. Loewy portrays Guevara as a
revolutionary humanist who considered all political questions from
an internationalist viewpoint. For him, revolutionary movements in
Latin America were part of a world process of emancipation. Loewy
considers especially Che's views on the contradiction between
socialist planning and the law of value in the Cuban economy and
his search for an alternative road to the "actually existing
socialism" of the Stalinist and post-Stalinist Soviet bloc. Che's
varied occupations-doctor and economist, revolutionary and banker,
agitator and ambassador, industrial organizer and guerrilla
fighter-were expressions of a deep commitment to social change.
This book eloquently captures his views on humanity, his
contributions to the theory of revolutionary warfare, and his ideas
about society's transition to socialism, offering a cohesive,
nuanced introduction to the range of Guevara's thought.
