The historical events Che partook in have been studied for decades by historians around the world and no consensus has been reached as to the morality of his actions. Many people throughout Latin America view Guevara as a heroic martyr for the people, whereas many people from the rest of the world see him as little more than a terrorist. What many of these historians fail to address is what exactly made Ernesto Guevara leave his relatively upper-middle class, loving family behind to pursue a life of revolution and guerrilla warfare.

  • CHE GUEVARA Een Controversiële Erfenis
    CHE GUEVARA een controversiële erfenis Masterscriptie Internationale Betrekkingen in Historisch Perspectief (MA) Naam: Bob van Leeuwen Studentnr.: 3555836 Begeleider: Bob de Graaff Datum: januari 2011 Studiepnt.: 22,5 ECTS “Sta mij toe te zeggen, met het risico belachelijk te klinken, dat een echte revolutionair geleid wordt door een diep gevoel van liefde.” (Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara) 1 Abstract Che Guevara is vandaag de dag een icoon, een symbool, een cultfiguur en een merk. Strijdend voor de revolutie en de verspreiding van het marxisme vond Che Guevara de dood, maar toch zou hij voortleven. In deze scriptie staat de vraag centraal waarom hij voortleeft en of dit te rechtvaardigen valt. De strijd van Che Guevara ging namelijk gepaard met gruweldaden, waaronder vele moorden. Is het wenselijk dat een Nederlandse jongen van vijftien met een shirt rondloopt waar een moordenaar op is afgebeeld, of moet deze afbeelding gezien worden als een symbool van een vrijheidsstrijder die zijn leven gaf voor het creëren van een rechtvaardige samenleving? In deze scriptie wordt op interdisciplinaire wijze naar antwoorden gezocht op de vele vragen die de controversiële erfenis van Che Guevara oproept. 2 Inhoudsopgave ABSTRACT 2 INHOUDSOPGAVE 3 KRONIEK 5 INLEIDING 6 DEEL I 1 ERNESTO ‘CHE’ GUEVARA 9 1.1 ERNESTO 9 1.1.1 ZIJN EERSTE JAREN 9 1.1.2 DE REVOLUTIE 14 1.2 CHE 17 1.2.1 NA DE REVOLUTIE 18 1.2.1.1 Cuba 18 1.2.1.2 Congo 20 1.2.2 HET EINDE 22 2 MOREEL OORDEEL 25 2.1 CAMUS 28 2.2 DEONTOLOGISCHE ETHIEK 29 2.3 INTENTIONALISTISCHE ETHIEK 30 2.4 CONSEQUENTIONALISTISCHE

He had taken notes during his journey around Latin America in 1952 and wrote it one year later. He was 24 years old when he decided to discover his continent with his friend Alberto Granado .This book inspired a director, Walter Salles, who created the film “the motorcycle diaries” in 2003. He tried to keep and respect the author’s feelings and his own description.Walter Salles had chosen an Argentinean, Gael Garcia Bernal to play Ernesto Guevara, and the role of Alberto Granado had been given to Rodrigo De La Serna, who was Argentinean too. This is not a tale of heroic feats, but it is about two lives running parallel for a while. The plan was to travel 5000 miles in four months. The Goal was to explore a continent they had only known in books. The method was the improvisation. They started their expedition with an old motorbike called the “Pederosa” which stands for vigorous.

We will always honor his memory” (“Speech by Nelson Mandela at the Rally in Cuba”). Por otro lado, Felix Rodriguez, el agente cubano de la CIA quien guió la misión de matar a Ernesto Guevara en octubre de 1967, rechazó esta interpretación reclamando: “Most people don’t know the real Che Guevara — the Che Guevara who wrote that he was thirsty for blood, the Che who assassi- nated thousands of people without any regard for any real legal process” (Grant).

  • Che Guevara, Médecin Des Pauvres Et Des Lépreux En Amérique Latine
    Chloé Maurel Che Guevara, médecin des pauvres et des lépreux en Amérique latine (années 1950) Qu’il suscite l’admiration ou le rejet, le révolutionnaire argentin Ernesto Guevara (1928-1967), surnommé le « Che », ne laisse personne indifférent. Intellectuel, médecin, guérillero, économiste, homme d’état, cet homme qui a quitté son Argentine natale pour aider Fidel Castro à faire la révolution à Cuba puis est mort en martyr en Bolivie en essayant d’y susciter une révolution paysanne, a été un peu tout cela à la fois, mais il est impossible de le classer dans une catégorie. Passionné, idéaliste et généreux, il apparaît à beaucoup de gens comme un héros romanesque. A l’inverse, il est parfois représenté comme dur, inflexible, et même sanguinaire, ayant effectivement tué lui-même ou fait exécuter des ennemis durant ses périodes de guérilla et de mise en place du régime castriste à Cuba. Comment évaluer la personnalité complexe de Che Guevara ? Dans cet article, à la lumière de l’actualité de la grave crise pandémique de 2020, il s’agira d’analyser comment Che Guevara, diplômé en médecine, s’est consacré avec dévouement et passion, lors de ses pérégrinations à travers l’Amérique latine au cours des années 1950, à soigner bénévolement les malades et notamment les lépreux, ce qui révèle son caractère profondément humaniste. * Un petit garçon à la santé fragile Le jeune Ernesto, né dans une famille bourgeoise d’Argentine, est, dès l’enfance, un petit garçon de santé fragile. Inquiets, ses parents consultent de nombreux médecins, font faire des radios, des analyses, essaient des médicaments divers, ne lésinant pas sur l’argent.

Ma per la storia del pensiero Ernesto Guevara sembrava ormai morto, visto che il compito di ricostruire le sue teorie era affidato esclusivamente a servizi giornalistici, libri ad effetto, ingenue celebrazioni apologetiche. Per quanto incredibile, era mancato fino ad oggi uno studio critico - sia in Europa che in America latina. Questo libro colma un vuoto e fornisce finalmente al pubblico la possibilità di «conoscere» il Che, dopo averne tanto «sentito parlare». Utilizzando tutto il materiale disponibile, la propria esperienza diretta a Cuba negli anni '60 e l'amicizia mantenuta per anni con la prima moglie di Guevara, l'autore traccia un ampio quadro dell'itinerario teorico del Che. Non mancheranno le sorprese, in questo itinerario, dato il carattere nettamente antidogmatico, polemico e libertario del pensiero di Guevara. Una scoperta «bella» per la storia della cultura e che ci avvicina a una comprensione di quell'«uomo nuovo», per il quale il Che lottò tutta la vita.

His dynamic personality and inspirational ideals lead many to follow him and many other great historical figures. His lasting impact still has many people continuing his changes as well as praising his name and actions due to his great role played in the Cuban Revolution, his solid efforts in Bolivia and the rest of South America. Che is stil! as inspirational today as he was in 1967, the year of his assassination. Ernesto "Che" Guevara was born in 1928 in Rosario, Argentina to his parents of middle class stature. During his childhood, and the rest of his life, Che was subjected to the unfavorable effects of asthma; which kept him home from school quite often. Che was restricted to only attending the second and third grades, and then the fifth and sixth grades if his body would allow him. Alta Gracias, the school Che attended, enabled him to interact with a variety of social and ethnical backgrounds very early in his Iife. Although Che came from a very privileged background, he spent much time with children and people from el campo, urban morochos and students of Italian, Spanish, and rural backgrounds.

  • Guevarism - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    مذهب جيفارا Guevarism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guevarism Guevarism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Guevarism is a theory of communist revolution and a military strategy of guerrilla warfare associated with Marxist revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara, a leading figure of the Cuban Revolution. During the Cold War, the United States and Soviet Union clashed in a series of proxy wars, especially in the developing nations of the Third World, including many decolonization struggles. Contents 1 Overview 2 Criticism 3 See also 4 Notes Overview After the 1959 triumph of the Cuban insurrection led by a militant "foco" under Fidel Castro, his Argentina-born, cosmopolitan and Marxist colleague Guevara parlayed his ideology and experiences into a model for emulation (and at times, direct military intervention) around the globe. While exporting one such "focalist" revolution to Bolivia, leading an armed vanguard party there in October 1967, Guevara was captured and executed, becoming a martyr to both the World Communist Movement and the New Left. His ideology promotes exporting revolution to any country whose leader is supported by the empire (United States) and has fallen out of favor with its citizens. Guevara talks about how constant guerrilla warfare taking place in non-urban areas can overcome leaders. He introduces three points that are representative of his ideology as a whole: that the people can win with proper organization against a nation's army; that the conditions that make a revolution possible can be put in place by the popular forces; and that the popular forces always have an advantage in a non urban setting.
