The Cuban Revolution
Five Cuban intelligence agents sit in federal penitentiaries across the United States because they infiltrated antirevolutionary groups in Miami intent on doing violence in Cuba. These five men represent a long line of those who have acted from an understanding of their roles in the long human historical drama. The Cuban Revolution did for radical youth of the 1950s what the Bolsheviks did for their ancestors. You could play a role in history and…

Filming Fidel
In May 1968, I received a call in San Francisco where I worked for the local public television station. From Havana, Dr. Rene Vallejo, Fidel Castro's doctor and confidante, said: "Come down with your crew as soon as you can." In other words, Castro was ready to cooperate on a film portrait for public television. We arrived shortly thereafter and waited for seven weeks. What follows is a diary and commentary about the jeep trip with Fidel through …

Globalization,Maquilas, Nafta, and the State
This article examines the latest wave of neoliberalism and globalization through its impact on border regions of the US and Mexico, especially the urban sprawl and squalor that has resulted from the manufacturing centers in Mexico known as maquilas. The maquilas , typically non-Mexican owned, take advantage of cheap Mexican labor and proximity to the US markets to find a niche in the new globalization. However, the pollution, corruption, violence…

Saul LandauLondon: Pluto Press, 2003. ix, 182pp, $38.95 cloth (ISBN 0-7453-2140-2)As Michael Moore and Ann Coulter can attest, there is a lot of money in partisan political commentary. Reviews of their books on booksellers' websites run into the hundreds, usually awarding the author either a furious one or enthusiastic five stars, depending on the political prejudices of the reader. Indeed, given the enormous sales of Moore and his fellow antagon…

The Day the Counterrevolutionaries Had Waited for Arrived, y en eso llegó Fidel
Since the Fidelista forces had rounded up the last of the bandidos contrarevolucionarios in the Escambray mountains in 1967, the Cuban government had not had to face any form of militant opposition. Indeed, the United States, not understanding Fidel's potency as ajudo politician, eagerly welcomed his political opposition, thus ridding the revolutionary government of its potentially worst political problem. By the time the Soviet Union collapsed a…

No Mas Canosa
For forty years, U.S. national security apparatchiks have tried to exact imperial revenge against Fidel Castro, the man who should hold the Guinness record for disobedience. From almost the day Fidel Castro led his triumphant rebeldes into Havana in January 1959, the U.S. government has employed routine terrorism against the Cuban revolution; in addition, the United States has tried to embargo Cuba to death and strangle it by any means, short of …

Is revolution, as defined up to now, viable in the 1990s? Or have changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, as well as those in technology and in the organization of the world economy over the past decade, made obsolete the formulations that have sustained progressive thought since Lenin? How does the unraveling of the Soviet model at home and abroad relate to the triumphalism of capitalist ideologues? How to think about political discourse…

Death in Washington
Understanding Revolution
I went to hear Tad Szulc discuss his new book, Fidel, a Critical Portrait, at the Wilson Center of the Smithsonian Institution. The former New York Times reporter related his observations from his life in Cuba while he was writing the book in 1985, from long talks with President Castro and other Cuban leaders, and from archival materials. The Cuban Revolution is "at a dead end," Szulc said; it suffers from a "decay of ideas," and the revolutionar…
