I am thankful to the University of Florida and the Center for Latin American Studies for funding my graduate studies and archival research. My work would not have been possible without the welcoming policy of the Presbyterian Historical Society in Philadelphia and its staff, especially its senior reference specialists, Leah Gass and Lisa Jacobson. I also want to thank my friend, Ashley Puig Herz, her husband, and her two children for allowing me to live in their home while I was doing archival research in Philadelphia. The guidance and contributions of my advisor, Lillian Guerra, and the other members of my thesis committee Richmond Brown and Manuel Vásquez have been of unimaginable value and I owe a great debt to all of them. I also thank María Cristina Garcia for advising, teaching, and mentoring me throughout my undergraduate years at Cornell University and for encouraging me to pursue graduate studies in history and Latin American studies. I also extend my thanks to all of the professors, classmates, and friends who have supported and encouraged me throughout my undergraduate and graduate studies. Furthermore, I will be eternally grateful to my family, especially my grandparents whose love, support, and memories of 1960s Cuba have greatly contributed to my work. Finally, none of this would be possible without the sacrifices and unconditional support of my mother. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Graduate School of the University of Florida in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts PRESBYTERIANS AND THE CUBAN REVOLUTION By Tomás Enrique Castellanos May 2013 Chair: Lillian Guerra Major: Latin American Studies This thesis examines the Presbyterian experience in Cuba during the period of state consolidation following the Cuban Revolution. The first phase of the Revolution, between 1959 and 1960, was welcomed by Presbyterians with optimism and euphoria. Presbyterians hoped the new government would represent a new beginning for Presbyterian missionary and social work in the country. They justified the more controversial actions of the revolutionary government, namely the public executions of former Batista policemen, guards, and military officials, and sought to maintain and strengthen their bonds with their North American financial sponsors, the United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America. The radicalization of the Revolution, especially between 1961 and 1966, presented a challenge for Presbyterians as they tried to accommodate to the changing nature of the regime, the breakdown of United States-Cuba relations, and the economic recession that ensued. A sector of the denomination embraced the radical reforms, even the Marxist nature of the state. However, a significant faction opposed the radicalization of the revolutionary government and chose to emigrate, especially after the Presbyterian leadership secured ecclesiastical independence in 1967. 8 Presbyterian entered the most radical phase of the Revolution, between 1966 and 1971, with an independent church but deeply tied to U.S. financing. This thesis demonstrates that while the Presbyterian leadership embraced the anti-imperialist, nationalist, and sometimes even Marxist discourse of the Revolution, they failed to internalize the self-sacrificing, frugal, unselfish, and egalitarian ideology of the “New Man” that emerged during the final period of the revolutionary state’s consolidation. 9 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Research Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between Presbyterians and the process of state consolidation following the Cuban Revolution. It covers the period from 1959 to 1972, when Presbyterians were forced to renegotiate their historic dependence on the United States and reexamine their identity in the context of an anti- imperialist revolutionary state.

  • Establishment and Growth of Protestantism in Colombia
    Establishment and Growth of Protestantism in Colombia Leslie J. Thompson September, 2005 School of Education, University of Wales, Bangor This Dissertation is submitted in part fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Ph.D. of the University of Wales ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The researcher is most grateful to friends in Colombia who came to his assistance. Some lent books long out of print on the early years of the Protestant Church. Rev. Guillermo Triana, President of the Confederación Evangélica de Colombia (CEDEC), provided minutes of key meetings that helped the researcher gain an understanding of missionary/national conflicts. Rev. Jairo Gutierrez made a special trip to the Baptist Theological Seminary Library in Cali, Colombia and, with their permission, copied several entire books that would otherwise have been unavailable. The chief librarian at the National Library of Colombia in Bogotá was very helpful. An old friend, Jeanne Burford de Bucana (1995) must be thanked for her book La Iglesia Evangélica en Colombia. Without these special resources, the task of completing this work would have been very difficult. Two men deserve special mention: Dr. Bill Rees and Dr. Colin Baker, my thesis supervisors at the University of Wales, Bangor. Dr. Rees has patiently reviewed this work chapter by chapter and provided invaluable suggestions and assistance. Dr. Baker has been a source of constant encouragement. As a group, the pastors of the Asociación de Iglesias Evangélicas del Caribe receive chief credit for the completion of this work. They are the men who actually lived out the researcher’s thesis. For their participation in interviews as well as their responses to numerous phone calls and electronic communications, the following individuals deserve special mention: Gregorio Landero, Ubaldo Padilla, Juan González, Marcos Díaz, Alvaro Méndez, Enoc Palacio, Wilson Martínez, Danilo Díaz, Eleazar Moreno, Eddie Romero, and Nicolas Woodbury.

Casa Editorial Verde Olivo Avenida Independencia y San Pedro Apartado 6916. CP 10693 Plaza de la Revolución, Ciudad de La Habana 3 PRESENTACIÓN La lucha en la Sierra Maestra dirigida por Fidel Castro Ruz para liberar al país del régimen dictatorial que apoyaba el go- bierno de los Estados Unidos, es una etapa crucial de la historia de Cuba. Estas páginas tratan acerca de esa gesta y dan continuidad a un libro anterior, Fidel : De Birán a Cinco Palmas, que recoge los pri- meros treinta años de vida del líder revolucionario. Cinco Palmas, en Purial de Vicana, histórico lugar donde se pro- duce el reencuentro de Fidel con su hermano Raúl y otros expe- dicionarios del Granma después de la dispersión de Alegría de Pío, es el sitio escogido para iniciar una jornada al lado de Fidel que solo concluirá veinticuatro meses y catorce días después en Santiago de Cuba, cuando entre victorioso con su Ejército Rebelde a la heroica ciudad. Esta obra, nacida de una acuciosa investigación, tiene como fuentes fundamentales: discursos de Fidel; sus recuerdos, tomados de múltiples entrevistas; cartas, órdenes, instrucciones, declaracio- nes, manifiestos, partes de guerra y muchos de los mensajes elaborados por él durante la lucha insurreccional.

The fact that anti-Batista sentiments were very popular in Cuba, and that several revolutionary groups existed has also been highly documented. Nonetheless, the most highly recognized insurrectional organization remains Castro’s M-26-7. The goal of my thesis is to explain the steps which Castro took in order to remove all competition, allowing him to remain the only figure left in power.

  • Fidel Castro: a Machiavellian Prince?
    FIDEL CASTRO: A MACHIAVELLIAN PRINCE? Alfred G. Cuzán1 Preface Two versions of this essay are in print. A short version appears in the Proceedings of the Association for the Study of the Cuban Economy, 1999, Volume 9, pp. 178-191. An extended version was published by the National Endowment for Cuban and Cuban- American Studies (Coral Gables, Florida, 1999). In light of the renewed interest about Cuba prompted by the resumption of diplomatic relations with the Castro regime announced by President Obama, I post the latter here with a few alterations, corrections, and additions, including more recent references and a few “postscripts” in the footnotes. A number of people, some of them regrettably no longer living, kindly read original drafts of the essay and offered encouragement and suggestions. Many thanks to Luis Aguilar León, Marvin Alisky, Charles W. Anderson, Ernesto Betancourt, James and Marian Busey, Juan Caballero, Juan del Aguila, Art Doerr, Barry Evans, Edward Gonzalez, Yvon Grenier, James A.
