Socialism and Man in Cuba: Che Guevara and the Revolution of Consciousness

from Rev Left Radio

Breht reads, reflects upon, and elaborates on Che Guevara's famous essay "Socialism and Man in Cuba" wherein Che argues that socialism cannot be reduced to changing property relations or economic structures; it must also produce a new kind of human being, less alienated, less governed by private self-interest, and more conscious of themselves as a social being. His central claim is that material transformation and the transformation of consciousness have to develop together, through education, collective struggle, moral incentives, self-discipline, and revolutionary practice.   ---------------------------------------------------- Learn more here: https://revleftradio.com/ Check out Unlearning Capitalism for more political educational resources
