Forlagsbeskrivelse af Fidel Castro Reader af Fidel Castro
Emerging in the 1960s as a leading voice in support of anticolonial struggles, then continuing to play a role in the antiglobalization movement in the subsequent decades, Fidel Castro was an articulate and penetrating - if controversial - political thinker and leader, who outlasted ten US presidents. Covering five decades of Fidel''s speeches, this selection begins with his famous courtroom defense (''History will Absolve Me''), and also includes his speech on learning of Che Guevara''s death in Bolivia, his analysis of the collapse of the Soviet Union, and his response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. With his declining health and the emergence of new leaders such as Hugo Chavez in Venezuela and Evo Morales in Bolivia, this book sheds light not just on Castro''s mighty role in Latin America''s past, but also on his legacy for the future. Love him or hate him, this anthology demonstrates that Fidel Castro is a ''master of the spoken word,'' as Gabriel Garcia Marquez has described him.
