Who Killed Che
Ratner and Smith have done it again! Who Killed Che? How the CIA Got Away With Murder is their second bombshell book dealing with Che Guevara and the U.S. government's frequent use of illegal and criminal political assassinations and routine whopper lies in its foreign policy, all in the name of "defending freedom".... In their new Che book these two prominent civil liberties lawyers present forty-four previously classified documents released und…
Mexico
A social volcano is bubbling in Mexico. Nearly half the country's eligible voters showed their disgust with the country's political parties by staying away from the polls in the off-year elections of July 2010. All the major political parties have become neoliberal and corrupt. Broad-based social movements are resisting a right-wing offensive, which, building on twenty-eight years of neoliberal economic policies, has led to the country's increasi…
An Open Letter on U.S. Policy for Cuba
Imperialism, State and Social Movements in Latin America
The militarised imperialism being consolidated by the Bush Administration forms a pretext for assuring and increasing control over natural resources, the expansion of financial and industrial capital, and the best possible conditions for U.S. trade and investment. The greatest threat facing U.S. imperialism in Latin America is the new wave of social movements that has arisen across the region. Key aspects of this process are outlined including th…

Gendered Class Analysis
We need a more gendered and internationally oriented class analysis. As monopoly capital confronts its crisis of overproduction and the tendency of the rate of profit to fall by scouring the globe for quick financial profits and cheaper sources of labor power and natural resources, its state and international representatives modernize counterinsurgency and crowd control SWAT teams to be the mailed fist behind the velvet glove of investment in the…

Mexico's Political Earthquake
Soldiers prevented relatives and volunteers from advancing past the barricades. A few desperate moans could still be heard from the rubble beyond. Lorry trucks drove through. Workers with bandanas over their mouths jumped out. Nattily dressed "gentlemen" with clipboards in their hands directed them into the ruins. There occurred a collective sigh of relief. Help had finally arrived.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, whe…

Immiseration, Not Marginalization
The Mexican Volcano
"People at the State Department told us: 'If El Salvador has a revolution, then the Mexican oilfields 150 miles away will be hit by revolution: we can't permit either." These words were spoken by Enrique Alvarez Cordoba, president of the Salvadoran Democratic Revolutionary Front, in an address at Riverside Church, New York City, in late August 1980. Three months later, he and other Front leaders were kidnapped and assassinated in San Salvador.Thi…

Recent Caribbean Developments and Need for Theoretical Expansion
In recent years there has emerged in the Caribbean scene of intense political struggle for socialism a score of influential left intellectuals writing on socialist transformation and national liberation. One of these new Marxist thinkers is Clive Y. Thomas. His book Dependence and Transformation, Economics of the Transition to Socialism, published by Monthly Review Press in 1974 like the works of Samir Amin (e.g., Accumulation on a World Scale: A…

Confronting Myths in Latin America
From the Spanish Conquest to the present, the colonization of Latin America has meant the exploitation of people and the destruction of great cultures by the expanding forces of mercantilism and capitalism. The continued development of world capitalism has depended for its success upon the continued underdeveloping and exploiting of other parts of the world. This "development of underdevelopment," as Andre Gunder Frank has argued, is the essence …

Prescott and His Sources
JUST AS PRESCOTT was a historian, so too the authors of his sources were chroniclers. Bernal Diaz del Castillo, Francisco L6opez de G6omara, Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, Hernan Cortes himself-all were men who, like Cervantes' magnificent creation, daba a leer libros de capallerias con tanta aficion y gusto, que olvido6 casi de todo punto el ejercicio de la caza, y aun la administracion de su hacienda.. Seemingly hypnotized by the romances of…

Venezuela and the Faln Since Leoni
After ten years of ruthless military dictatorship, the 1959 advent of a democratically elected government in Venezuela lifted popular hopes for social-economic reform and political democracy. In 1958, Romulo Betancourt (President 1959-1964) spoke like a revolutionary, in 1959 like a reformist. His initial actions were, in fact, reformist; but in the last four years of his regime, under pressures from Left and Right, he performed increasingly as a…
