Ernesto Che Guevara fue un dirigente central de la vanguardia comunista de la Revolución Cubana forjada políticamente por Fidel Castro.It's essential for working people to win state power, Che writes. "Then there's the second stage, maybe more difficult than the first"--the transition from dog-eat-dog capitalism to socialism. That includes moving from work as a compulsory condition of survival, to voluntary social labor through which we express our common humanity. In the footsteps of Marx and Lenin, Che's efforts to lay the economic foundations of this historic transformation were hammered out in revolutionary struggle. They chart a road for working people everywhere to join in the fight for a socialist world. And, above all, to transform ourselves in the process.

¿De dónde provino la humanidad? ¿Cómo llegamos hasta donde estamos hoy? ¿Por qué es importante eso? Porque sin comprender que la sociedad humana --desde nuestros ancestros más remotos-- ha sido creada mediante el trabajo social, los trabajadores seguiremos siendo prisioneros de la época capitalista en la que vivimos. Sin conocer cómo nuestro trabajo transforma la naturaleza, cómo el trabajo es la fuerza motriz del rumbo que sigue la humanidad, no podremos ver más allá de la explotación de clases que deforma cada aspecto de nuestras relaciones sociales, ideas y valores. La dictadura del capital no siempre ha existido. Data de apenas unos cientos de años. Al igual que la esclavitud y la servidumbre que le precedieron, el dominio capitalista tuvo un inicio. . . y tendrá un final. Solo la conquista revolucionaria del poder estatal por la clase trabajadora, consciente de nuestra posición de clase y las condiciones de nuestra emancipación, podrá abrir la puerta a un futuro. Un futuro que no se base en el capitalismo con su despiadada explotación, degradación de la naturaleza, subyugación de la mujer, racismo y guerras. Un mundo basado en la solidaridad humana. Un mundo socialista. Eso es lo que una larga visión de la historia nos ayuda a comprender.

"Because without understanding how human society since our remotest ancestors has been created through social labor working people remain prisoners of the capitalist epoch in which we live.Without knowing how our labor transforms nature how its the motor force along humanitys ongoing road we cant see beyond the class exploitation that warps every aspect of our social relations ideas and values.The dictatorship of capital hasn't always existed. Its a few hundred years old. Like slavery and serfdom before it capitalist rule had a beginning. . . and will have an end. Only the revolutionary conquest of state power by the working class conscious of our class position and conditions of emancipation can open the door to a future. One based not on dog-eat-dog capitalist exploitation degradation of nature subjugation of women racism and war. A world built on human solidarity. A socialist world.Thats what a long view of history helps us understand."--Amazon.com viewed April 19, 2022.

Articles from the early Soviet press on social and cultural issues in the struggle to forge new social relations.
