Marx & Philosophy Review of Books » 2015 » Gaido: Che Wants to See You Ciro Roberto Bustos Che Wants to See You: The Untold Story of Che in Bolivia Verso, London, 2013. 468pp., £25 hb ISBN 9781781680964 Reviewed by Daniel Gaido Comment on this review About the reviewer Daniel Gaido Daniel Gaido is a researcher at the National Research Council (Conicet), Argentina. He is author of The Formative Period of American Capitalism (Routledge, 2006) and co-editor, with Richard Day, of Witnesses to Permanent Revolution (Brill, 2009), Discovering Imperialism (Brill, 2009) and Responses to Marx's 'Capital' (Brill, forthcoming). More... Review The publication of these memoirs by one of Ernesto “Che” Guevara’s key men in Argentina and Bolivia is a major political and literary achievement. Politically, not because it shows the superiority of Che’s rural armed foco strategy and his peasant way to socialism over Marx’s strategy of building a revolutionary working-class political party, but because it provides a truthful account of Che’s guerrillas exploits, and in that sense it is the best homage that could have been paid to his memory. Artistically, because Bustos’ unique experiences are rendered in a lively and captivating style, which makes the reading of these at times brutal and traumatizing reminiscences an enjoyable experience. Ciro Bustos was born in Mendoza, Argentina, in 1932. A painter by profession, he studied at the School of Fine Arts of the National University of Cuyo, Mendoza. Attracted by the Cuban Revolution, in 1961 he travelled to Havana, where he met Che, who included him in the group he chose to carry out his revolutionary project in Argentina – part of Che’s wider “continental plan” to set up a guerrilla base in Northern Argentina and Southern Bolivia and Peru. -
El Período Histórico 1955 / 1976, Su Influencia En La Juventud De
Cuando se planteó la posibilidad de crear una página Web de homenaje a los compañeros Marplatenses desaparecidos del PST y la JSA, se concluyó que todas sus trayectorias era en cierto modo convergentes, a la vez que todos nosotros habíamos sido influenciados por el mismo entorno, que no era otro que aquel en el que vivimos. Pero si hay algo sobre lo que no hubo ninguna duda, fue que el punto de partida de nuestra historia y la de la mayoría de los 30.000 desaparecidos, era el último gobierno de Perón. El objetivo no es otro que sintetizar el período que va de mediados de los 50 hasta el golpe militar de 1976, utilizando como fuente fundamental de información la enciclopedia Wikipedia con sus enlaces. Al final de este resumen también se realiza una pequeña exposición de los acontecimientos acaecidos en la ciudad de Mar del Plata, a partir del asesinato de Silvia Filler, hecho este que propició “El Marplatazo”. Utilizando como fuente el libro de Carlos Bozzi “Luna Roja” se resume la espiral de violencia que se produjo en “La Ciudad Feliz” por el accionar de elementos de extrema derecha y paramilitares cuyo objetivo era anular la influencia, en el movimiento estudiantil y obrero, de las organizaciones de izquierda, contestando a su vez a las acciones, en su mayoría testimoniales, de los grupos guerrilleros, que alcanzaron su punto álgido con el asesinato del abogado Ernesto Piantoni, dirigente de la CNU. Un repaso a esa parte de la “Historia de Argentina”, que está a final del libro. Fuente mayoritaria: Wikipedia. -

“Cuba's Revolutionary Armed Forces: How Revolutionary Have They
“Cuba’s Revolutionary Armed Forces: How Revolutionary Have They Been? How Revolutionary Are They Now?” Hal Klepak Professor Emeritus of Strategy and Latin American History Royal Military College of Canada “El Caribe en su Inserción Internacional” Conference of the Tulane University Center for Inter-American Policy and Research San José, Costa Rica 3-4 January 2009 Introduction This paper will argue that Cuba’s Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias (FAR) have been, and to a great degree still are, ‘revolutionary’ in the contexts of what the armed forces of that country were before 1959, of what Latin American armed forces are and do traditionally, of what those forces normally think about themselves, and of those armed forces in regard to Cuba’s role in international affairs since the Revolution. These four elements will provide the threads for the argument to be made. Thus one will first address what these forces were and how they saw themselves in the years of the revolutionary struggle for power, and the structuring of them after 1959. We will then look at how their roles, structures and ways of seeing themselves changed over the years after their taking of Havana and installing the government of Fidel Castro in power. And finally we will assess their revolutionary credentials since the shattering experience of the Special Period and the subsequent major leadership changes the island has known in recent months. El Ejército Rebelde The army of Fidel Castro’s struggle in the mountains of Cuba’s then easternmost Oriente province, the Ejército Rebelde of now epic memory, takes for the date of its founding the day in November 1956 when the tiny force of 82 men on board the small yacht Granma disembarked to begin the long fight to rid the country of the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista Zaldivar and bring about deep reform of the island’s political, economic and social system. -
1958 04 Entrevista De Jorge Masetti Con El Che En Sierra Maestra
Entrevista de Jorge Masetti con el Che en Sierra Maestra (Abril / mayo 1958) Jorge Ricardo Masetti fue el primer periodista argentino que ascendió a la Sierra Maestra, en Cuba, para lograr entrevistarse con Fidel Castro y el Che Guevara. En los meses de abril y mayo de 1958, Masetti vive toda una odisea humana y profesional para lograr su cometido. Entre los peligros que suponía andar por la Cuba de Batista en busca de los Rebeldes que combatían la tiranía y las dificultades naturales que ofrecían las montaсas cubanas, este periodista argentino tuvo que subir dos veces a encontrarse con los jefes revolucionarios porque la primera transmisión de las entrevistas no había llegado a destino. El contacto directo con los hechos, la cercanía directa con los combatientes revolucionarios y con los campesinos cubanos que sufrían en carne propia la represión batistiana, forjaron en Masetti una visión más subjetiva del proceso de lucha que se estaba llevando a cabo en la Isla. Su primer encuentro con el Che ocurre tras agotadoras jornadas de ascenso, matizadas con lluvias torrenciales, mulas empacadas y espinos por doquier. Al llegar al campamento del comandante guerrillero argentino-cubano, Masetti se entera que Che había salido con un grupo de hombres a intentar emboscar al temible Sánchez Mosquera. Cuando Guevara regresa se encuentra con el periodista argentino que lo estaba esperando. Luego de oír las explicaciones del motivo que traía para hacer las entrevistas, la intención de mostrar al mundo qué se encontraba detrás de la guerra que mantenían, el Che escuchó la primer pregunta de quien años después serнa parte de un proyecto de liberación continental más abarcador y concreto: - ”?Por qué estás aquí? - Estoy aquí, sencillamente, porque considero que la ъnica forma de liberar a Amйrica de dictadores es derribбndolos. -

Salvador Allende- Notes on His Security Team: the Group of Personal Friends (Gap-Grupo De Amigos Personales)
STUDY SALVADOR ALLENDE- NOTES ON HIS SECURITY TEAM: THE GROUP OF PERSONAL FRIENDS (GAP-GRUPO DE AMIGOS PERSONALES) Cristián Pérez This article describes the formation and development of the first strictly revolutionary institution of the Socialist President Salvador Allende: his security team, known as the Group of Personal Friends or GAP, from its origins in 1970 to the fight at the Presidential Palace (La Moneda). In it I intend to trace the different phases of the organisation, the diversity of its functions and its intimate rela- tionships with, on the one hand, the parties and movements of the Chilean Left and, on the other, with Cuba.

The news that he brought about the national situation did not cause any undue anxiety, because over the past few months rumours of a coup against the Government had become almost routine, especially after June 29th, the day of the tanks or el tancazo as it was known.3 At the same time, some kilome- tres towards the centre of the capital, in the house at Tomas Moro No. -
