The Incorrigible Man of Cuban Politics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

While Cuba's 1940 constitution was among the most progressive in the western hemisphere, few knew its details until political leader Chibás, whose suicide in 1951 precipitated the Cuban Revolution, read it on his radio program. This work explores Chibás's life in order to explain the nature of Cuban politics from the mid-twentieth century to today.
