A pesquisa que dá origem a este livro possui forte rigor no trabalho com as fontes documentais e grande consistência analítica na construção do tema central que a norteia, qual seja: traçar a trajetória partidária dos comunistas cubanos ao longo de quatro décadas (1920- 1960) com ênfase nas contradições e nas disputas políticas travadas pelo Partido Comunista de Cuba (PCC)/Partido Socialista Popular (PSP)1 e suas lideranças. Para isso, Ana Paula Cecon Calegari utiliza o enfoque teórico-metodológico das culturas políticas, em especial da comunista, para desvendar as ideologias, as constelações mitológicas, as representações e os valores que foram difundidos pelo partido e seus afiliados. A história dos comunistas, como bem mostra a autora, cruza com momentos decisivos da história de Cuba na primeira metade do século XX, tais como as ditaduras de Gerardo Machado e Fulgencio Batista, a Segunda República Cubana e, por fim, os primeiros anos de uma Revolução que abalou o cenário político da Ilha e da América Latina em contexto de Guerra Fria interamericana.

Por que as moradias em Cuba estão tão deterioradas e os carros são tão antigos? Existe internet na ilha? Por que tantos cubanos emigram? Por que existiram duas moedas e como está o cenário econômico do país? Há racismo e machismo em Cuba? E quanto à desigualdade social? Qual a situação da comunidade LGBTQIA+? Quais dificuldades o país enfrenta desde a morte de Fidel Castro? Todo mundo que estuda Cuba já teve de se debruçar sobre o conjunto de contradições que cada uma dessas perguntas suscita. Para o pensamento conservador, da extrema direita ao liberalismo democrático, só há uma explicação pueril: o socialismo falhou. Resta ao militante de esquerda ou aos estudiosos do...
For more than fifty years, the revolutionary experience in Cuba was the stage for such re markable personalities as Che Guevara and for dramatic events like the missile crisis. All these 20th century historic icons are interwoven with the deep internal restructuring of the Cuban economy and society, and the related challenge to the United States' prior unopposed hegemony over Latin America. The complexities of these elements should not be dismissed, for, in them selves, they are an explanation for the passions and interpretative battles that are evoked still today by this Caribbean revolution.
Che Guevara, the larger-than-life hero of the 1959 revolutionary victory that overturned the Cuban dictatorship, believed that revolution would also topple the imperialist governments in Latin America. Che's call to action, his proclamation of "invincibility"-the ultimate victory of revolutionary forces-continues to influence the course of Latin American history and international relations. His amazing life story has lifted him to almost legendary status. This edition of Che's classic work Guerrilla Warfare contains the text of his book, as well as two later essays titled "Guerrilla Warfare: A Method" and "Message to the Tricontinental." A detailed introduction by Brian Loveman and Thomas M....
Gastric cancer has been one of the great malignant scourges affecting man kind for as long as medical records have been kept. Until operative resection pioneered by Bilroth and others became available, no effective treatment was feasible and death from cancer was virtually inevitable. Even with resection by total gastrectomy, the chances of tumor eradication remained small. Over recent years, however, the situation has been changing. Some changes have resulted from better understanding of the disease, early detec tion, and better management techniques with applied clinical research, but the reasons for other changes are poorly understood. For example, the incidence of gastric cancer is decre...
