Sommario/riassunto |
|
Analyzing the crucial period of the Cuban Revolution from 1959 to 1961, this book challenges scholarly views of the revolution's sources, shape, and historical trajectory. It states that revolutionary leaders, while acting under serious constraints, were nevertheless autonomous agents pursuing their own independent ideological visions. |
