Book Description

February 1, 2001
El legendario dirigente argentino Che Guevara desafía a los jóvenes de Cuba y del mundo a que trabajen y se vuelvan disciplinados. A unirse a las filas delanteras de las luchas, sean grandes o pequeñas. A leer y estudiar. A que aspiren a ser combatientes revolucionarios. A que politicen las organizaciones en que militan y, así, se politicen a sí mismos. A que se conviertan en un tipo de ser humano diferente, conforme sumen esfuerzos con el pueblo trabajador en todas partes para transformar el mundo. Y, avanzando sobre esa vía, a que renueven y gocen de la alegría y la espontaneidad de ser joven.

También disponible en: English; Greek

In eight talks from 1959 to 1964, the Argentine-born revolutionary challenges youth of Cuba and the world to study, to work, to become disciplined. To join the front lines of struggles, small and large. To politicize their organizations and themselves. To become a different kind of human being as they strive together with working people of all lands to transform the world. And, along this course, to revel in the spontaneity and joy of being young.

Also available in: Greek; Spanish

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

This volume contains eight speeches Che Guevara gave between 1959 and 1962, at the height of the Cuban revolution. Guevara's addresses express the anti-American sentiment of the era, castigating the "U.S. imperialists." The volume also contains a speech given by Fidel Castro, in which he honored Che and his fallen comrades during the October 1997 ceremony in which Castro received Guevara's remains. The sections are introduced with a brief des- cription of the social, political, and historical situation at the time of the speech. Recommended for academic libraries with a Latin American studies program and any large public library that serves a large Latino population. This book will be of particular interest to the Cuban American community. Eduardo Tinoco, Lehman Brothers Lib., Los Angeles

Review

[In these speeches Che is] revivified to an extent that even the best biographies rarely achieve.... [T]he Argentine revolutionary challenges his audience to study, work, and join the front lines of struggles. His public, the youth of Cuba, is also the world at large. Che's speeches are characterized by ... a belief in a society that serves the common people instead of the powerful.... [A]ny sizable library serving Spanish-speaking young adults should include. --Criticas

5.0 out of 5 stars Hablando en serio de la revolución, March 7, 2002
By 
Harvey (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Che Guevara Habla a la Juventud (Che Guevara Speaks to the Young) (Paperback)
El libro publica ocho discursos pronunciados por el dirigente de la revolución cubana, Ernesto Che Guevara, en reuniones con estudiantes y trabajadores cubanos, y jóvenes de otros países solidarios con la revolución. Nos da un vistazo importante a algunos aspectos claves en la historia de la revolución cubana. Y realmente los discursos son aún más importantes por su relevancia hoy en día para trabajadores y jóvenes de todo el mundo.

Che habla del desarrollo de la revolución, del subdesarrollo económico y los pasos necesarios para transformar la sociedad, de los enfrentamientos con el gobierno norteamericano, de la reforma agraria y su importancia para cualquier país en un proceso revolucionario. Habla también del papel del individuo en la sociedad, presentando una perspectiva no de caridad sino de solidaridad con los oprimidos y explotados. Expresa una confianza enorme en la capacidad de jóvenes -- estudiantes, obreros y campesinos-- de superarse en el proceso de cambiar la sociedad.

¡Léalo! ¡Compártalo! ¡Discútalo! ¡Qué sea de provecho!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lee el Ché en su propia voz, April 17, 2002
By 
This review is from: Che Guevara Habla a la Juventud (Che Guevara Speaks to the Young) (Paperback)
Los títulos de los discursos lo dice todo para que este libro quede de cabecera para todo rebelde.

Siendo médico él, explicó que no basta ser buena gente para ser médico revolucionario, sino hay que hacer una revolución. Ya victoriosa la revolución, explicó la que tiene que hacer la juventud comunista. Se puede tomar este consejo bastante a pecho, porque hay demasiada gente que quiere ser buena persona y hasta allí.

Lee el Ché en su propia voz, para que juzgas con tu propio criterio. Es en esto que se destaca la editorial Pathfinder: dar espacio los revolucionarios hablar por si mismo, y bien merecedora es esta adición a su "serie" de "Habla..."

De índole histórico, en esta colección se puede trazar la maduración intelectual de este personaje, de la manera en que se estaba llegando a cuajar las ideas que resultaron en el primer proyecto socialista solidaria, que se volvió a tomar en 1985 -justo a tiempo antes de que la URSS empezó a estremecer-.
