Description:University Students and Revolution in Cuba, 1920-1968 sheds light on the roots of the Cuban revolution and the changes that have taken place among students since Castro came to power. Combining the research of a scholar with the insights of a participant, the author conducted more than fifty interviews with former Cuban student leaders to reinforce his own findings.Student activities in politics and students in rebellion loom very large on the American horizon today [i.e. late 1960s]. The student challenge of the Batista regime—before Castro was in the headlines—is reminiscent of the violent campus demonstrations reported in current [i.e. 1960s] news media.Traditionally active in politics, Latin American student elites have been in the forefront of the struggles against dictatorships and drives for modernization. Cuban university students displayed this activism to an unusual degree. Cuban revolutions and insurrections were born or supported on the campuses. Student activities aimed at social, political, and economic reforms—often in opposition to dictatorships and American supervision of Cuban affairs. Students followed a vision of a just society in a politically and economically independent nation. Under the concept of autonomy, police were excluded from campuses and the University of Cuba [sic] became a sanctuary for political agitators and a base for terrorist groups that were only loosely allied with the students.—from the front flap of the dust jacketIncludes Notes, a Bibliography and an IndexWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
