The book explores the Cuban revolutionary movement from 1868 to 1959 as an ongoing struggle for political independence and social transformation. It highlights Cuba's role as a beacon of hope for the Third World, emphasizing the shift of power from a foreign-dependent elite to the people, fostering structures of popular democracy. Amidst a backdrop of neoliberal challenges, it discusses the resurgence of social movements in Latin America and the Non-Aligned Movement, while critiquing the unsustainability of the capitalist world-economy, suggesting a potential for democratic socialist revolutions in the North.
