Problems of Women's Liberation
The Cuban Revolution in World Politics Series (32 Volumes)
This series includes essential speeches, documents, and interviews spanning over 50 years of revolutionary activity by men and women whose lives have been shaped by their determination to defend the Cuban revolution and its internationalist course—from the Congo, to Angola and southern Africa, to Grenada, Nicaragua, Venezuela and beyond. First-hand accounts of a revolution that continues to change the course of history. Each of the 32 volumes is a chapter in the history of the Cuban Revolution, as told by those on the front lines of that ongoing epic. Introductions by series editor Mary-Alice Waters highlight the experiences of fighters over decades, from the guerrilla war in the Sierra Maestra and the revolutionary underground in Cuba’s cities to the Bay of Pigs, Vietnam, Angola, and Venezuela. They provide a historical and political background that makes the material accessible to readers unfamiliar with Cuba and its role in the world today.
