Your position against President Reagan's Dr. Angel Fernández-Lamas Eloy González efforts to bring about peace and Democracy in Central José González-Puente America is well known.

Queral Sandinistas to Costa Rica and Honduras, are a real threat NEW JERSEY, Norte: to the whole Continent, to your own country and indeed to Dr. Hector Wiltz the United States. NEW JERSEY. Sur: E. Oviedo In fact, your visit to President Reagan was simply NEW YORK: to request, in your typical insolent arrogance, financial Rodolfo Urrutia help, and to try to resolve the financial crisis and the PENNSYLVANIA: dire poverty to which your people are subjected; although Renán Rey according to the press, the friends are so embezzled in WASHINGTON: your country that help never reaches your people. Dr. Claudio F. Benedí MEXICO: Dr. Eduardo Borrell-Navarro You appeared before the U.S. Congress, -violating PUERTO RICO: all protocole- to attack President Reagan's Policy with Dr. Carlos Piñeiro the hope of dividing the Executive and Legislative powers. VENEZUELA: Your unwise remarks distorted the truth with the purpose Salvador Romaní Orue of confusing some Congressmen and insite other to rebel against the Executive to "act as a restrain against any -2 - possible use of force in Central America", but you did not explain that the ones who are using force in that region are the guerrillas trying to destabilize those countries like they did to destabilize Nicaragua. You failed to inform the Congress about the existing tyranny in Cuba, which enslaves and executes the people, simply, because you support that regime. And that tyranny, subservient to the Soviets, indoctrinates and arms the guerrillas in El Salvador, Co­ lombia, Peru, Guatemala, Chile, Venezuela, etc. Your pose before the U.S. Congress was an intolerable inter­ ference in the internal affairs of the United States trying to pro­ voque a confrontation between the Executive and the Legislative bo­ dies of this Country, showing your service to the Soviet Union. You proclaimed "tolerance for other interests, the recognition of foreign identities and respect for the wishes of others. Were you subtly referring to the wishes of the Cuban, Nicaraguan and Salvadorean people to be Communists? The American people have always preferred reason to force, and has always used maximum restraint of power, but you can hardly ask of the United States to allow Communism to take over Central Ameri­ ca, and spread it to your own Country -which by the way has many vulnerable spots- so that the enemy, with your consent, may advan­ ce to the borders of this Country. You do not tell the truth, Mr. President, when you try to jus­ tify the guerrillas "as a result of economic deficiencies, politi­ cal backwardness, social injustices, because Mexico suffers all those evils, worsened by the fact that there is only one party which controls all the power and the people can never freely express their sovereignty, since in you country "Democracy" is practiced by the outgoing President appointing the next President. That situation does not create a confrontation between East and West; but the East, that is, the Communists do take advantage of it. It is nonsense to say that Communism brings about "reforms and structural changes". The changes and reforms consist in destroying the economy, enslaving the people and bring misery to any country -like in Cuba and Nicaragua, now occupied by the Soviet Union. On the other hand, Mr. President, you suggested that the United States should accept different ideologies in the region: we could agree if such ideologies were not Marxism-Leninism which enslaves the people and dominate them by terror. How does President de la Madrid think his people would react if he were to tell them that he accepts Marxism-Leninism? It seems that the only thing that makes President de la Madrid happy is the continuous flow of illegal immigrants into the United States, which dollars are "a significant contribution to the devel­ opment of the U.S.A, and border States, and for the economy in par­ ticular". The truth, of course is, that the immigration is a con- - 3 - sequence of the poverty prevailing in Mexico, because if there were enough work those unfortunate people would not have to come to the United States. But, indeed, this immigration is quite be­ neficial to Mexico, because besides relieving the unemployment rate there, it means a flow of hard currency that those people send back to Mexico, thus helping the Mexican economy with the natural reaction to your audacity. I remain.

  • Eduardo Chibás: Incorrigible Man of Cuban Politics
    CHAPTER 26 Eduardo Chibás: Incorrigible Man of Cuban Politics Ilan Ehrlich Abstract: Eduardo Chibás (1907-1951) was a unique figure in Cuban politics between 1947 and 1951 - the last years of democratic rule before a military coup in March of 1952. His flamboyant manner and shocking public accusations, transmitted to a nationwide audience via radio, allowed him to dominate the island's political discourse, introduce an original political style and present himself as a preferable alternative to the ruling Autén- tico party. Chibás was a charismatic senator and presidential candidate who headed the newly formed Ortodoxo party and attracted a large, varied and often fanatical following. Supporters were drawn to Chibás' personal integrity, his appeals for honesty in public life, his denunciation of gangster violence, his insistence that schools and hospitals be improved and his revelations of malfeasance by contemporary politicians. He thus revital- ized enthusiasm for the island's democratic institutions at a time when successive corrupt administrations had engendered widespread disappointment and cynicism. By spring of 1947, the mayor of Havana was frustrated, perplexed and contemplating drastic measures. Having been elected on a platform of bringing water to the parched capital city, Manuel Fernández Supervielle had failed and his constituents were irate. Upon being recognized in pub- lic, chants of "agua" trailed him relentlessly. During trips to the cinema, he sat apart from the crowd so as not to be seen and if his image appeared on a newsreel it was greeted with derisive whistles. Even Havana's mer- chants, whom Supervielle had saved from a series of onerous taxes in his former post as treasury minister, turned their backs on him.

  • A Reinterpretation. Julio Cesar Guanche Two Keys for the Interpretation of Cuba's 1940 Constitutio
    Cuba’s 1940 Constitution: A Reinterpretation. Julio Cesar Guanche1 Two keys for the interpretation of Cuba’s 1940 Constitution have been so dominant that they have become standard: On one hand the 1940 Constitution is taken for the greatest consensus-building process of the Cuban republic and, on the other hand, its failure is attributed to the absence of accessory legislation which left the Constitution with little normative reach. In this piece, I will offer a rereading of the second key. To do so, I review the debates over the mortgage moratorium and racial discrimination. It is my hypothesis that the solutions found for both problems in 1940 – in the former case by deferring the moratorium in favor of those whose debts were outstanding for more than twenty years and in the second by constitutionally establishing criminal sanction for racial discrimination – offered answers for issues that remain crucial in the here and now. Likewise, there were good reasons for high expectations regarding the future normative order created by the1940 Constitution. It consecrated a social criterion for democracy and a sense of nationhood that was inclusive and sensitive to “the people.” This piece does not address the causes of the 1940 Constitution’s “failure” – which could be the subject for another study – but it does seek to nuance the discourse about its general ineffectiveness. Eliminating the mortgage moratorium It is ironic that “Cuba’s number one problem,” the matter that comprised, in 1939, the “soul of the Constituent Assembly,” has not been taken up in order to judge the effectiveness of 1 Julio Cesar Guanche Zaldivar (Havana, 1974) has been a professor at the University of Havana and directed several national publications and publishing houses.

  • La Actuación De Los Partidos Políticos Como Reflejo De La Crisis De La Sociedad Cubana, 1944-1958
    LA ACTUACIÓN DE LOS PARTIDOS POLÍTICOS COMO REFLEJO DE LA CRISIS DE LA SOCIEDAD CUBANA, 1944-1958 DINA MARTÍNEZ DÍAZ MIRIAM FERNÁNDEZ SOSA (Universidad de La Habana) 1. ANTECEDENTES, 1933-1944 El 12 de agosto de 1933, como resultado de un genuino movimiento popular, se produjo el derrocamiento de la tiranía de Gerardo Machado. En el mes de abril y como parte de la «política del Buen Vecino» de Francis D. Roosevelt había sido enviado a Cuba como embajador de los Estados Unidos Benjamín Sumner Welles, con el objetivo de solucionar la crisis de la forma más conveniente para los intereses norteamericanos. Así se buscaba un arreglo con la oposición cubana y la posibilidad de discutir nuevos tratados entre Cuba y Estados Unidos. El intento de solución a la crisis cubana, basado en la unión de las organizaciones políticas de la burguesía, tanto del gobierno como de la oposición, no pudo resistir el empuje popular. La mediación resultó un fracaso. Con la caída del régimen de Machado se produjo un debilitamiento del Estado y del control de la oligarquía y el imperialismo. El gobierno de Carlos M. de Céspedes no era capaz por su ineficacia, de conducir al país de una forma adecuada, por el hecho de no alterar las estructuras del poder oligárquico y por actuar bajo las orientaciones de Estados Unidos. Duran­ te su gobierno se agudizó la crisis económica y se originó un resquebra­ jamiento del ejército como institución básica del estado. Esta situación, unida al descontento popular lleva a que el 4 de sep­ tiembre se produzca un movimiento interno de soldados y sargentos -dirigido inicialmente por el sargento mayor Pablo Rodríguez y controla­ do posteriormente por el también sargento mayor Fulgencio Batista'- que tenía vinculaciones con el Directivo Estudiantil Universitario, el ABC Ra­ dical y Pro Ley y Justicia.

    MICHAEL B. SALWEN • I Nic .. ..... iMr a. Cuban radio and television before Fidel Castro's revolution were rich with domestically produced soap operas, live sporting events, lavish song-and-dance programs, and raucous political commentators. Cuba's 156 radio stations and 27 television stations sought the best talent from around the world. They paid large sums for exclusive rights to broadcast baseball games and boxing matches. All of these endeavors were overshadowed by Castro's revolution. Radio and Television in Cuba: The Pre-Castro Era describes broadcasting in Cuba during the 40-year period before the Communist government nationalized all mass media in the early 1960s. Micheal Salwen explores some major themes: the alleged corruption of the broadcast media, the eco- nomic conditions in which the media operated, the political conditions in Cuba and issues related to freedom of the press. He brings together documents and interviews with leading Cuban broadcasters from the pre-Castro era to shed some light on Cuban broadcasting during this significant period. Michael B. Salwen is associate professor, Journalism and Photography Program, School of Commu- nication, University of Miami, Coral Gables, Florida. His research has included international mass media and the social effects of mass communication. He is co-author of Latin American Journalism and is the book review editor of World Communication. He has published in Journalism Quarterly, Newspaper Research Journal, Critical Studies in Mass Communica- tion, Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television, and Gazette. He also has served as head of the International Communication Division of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication.
