1981réf. 86364Havana Cuba: Political Publishers 1981. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. Good/Good. 116 4 pages. Index. Among the topics addressed in the Index are Socioeconomic Developments Revolutionary Armed Forces Social Organizations Ministry of the Interior Union of Young Communists Communist Party Ideological Struggle Foreign Policy and Economics. Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz 13 August 1926 - 25 November 2016 was a Cuban revolutionary and politician who was the leader of Cuba from 1959 to 2008 serving as the prime minister of Cuba from 1959 to 1976 and president from 1976 to 2008. Ideologically a Marxist-Leninist and Cuban nationalist he also served as the first secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba from 1965 until 2011. Under his administration Cuba became a one-party communist state; industry and business were nationalized and socialist reforms were implemented throughout society. On January 20 1981 Fidel Castro gave the closing speech at the Communist Party of Cuba's second Congress held from January 17-20. He addressed almost 150 foreign delegations representing pro-Soviet communist parties liberation movements and even some social democratic parties of the Socialist international as well as more than a million Cubans. This fact alone is a measure of the prestige which the CPC has among many political trends and working people around the world. But the economic situation in Cuba brought to light during the congress and the path which Castro is proposing to the peoples struggling against imperialism give food for thought and should lead us to question the supposedly revolutionary path which Castro claims to be defending. One of the main concerns of the congress was the economic situation in Cuba. Despite an overall situation envied by many of the peoples dominated by U.S. imperialism the main report presented by Castro revealed that the objectives of the 5-year plan adopted at the First Congress in 1975 were not attained. Economic growth reached only 4% despite an objective of 6% and the industrialization plan met with difficulties. These results are of some importance since the objectives set at the last congress were consciously modest. Given this situation the Second Congress underlined the need for increased mobilization in production and stepped up plans to implement the new system to manage the economy which was first adopted at the First Congress. At the time this system was presented as an answer to the idealist errors of the 1965-70 period when it was claimed that all forms of market economy had abruptly been eliminated. The system clearly draws inspiration from the experience of the economic reforms introduced in the U.S.S.R. by Khrushchev in the early sixties which are judged as positive. These reforms underlined the importance of "the law of value the necessity that in all enterprises including State enterprises there are buy and sell relations and that within these relations the market categories function as indispensable instruments for measuring the use we make of our productive resources. in order to decide which investments are the most advisable and to know which enterprises.work the best.".

The United States assumed custodial power over Cuba under the treaty ending the Spanish-American War. Cuba gained formal independence in 1902 as the Republic of Cuba but the U.S. continued to keep troops in Cuba and retained the right to intervene in its internal and foreign affairs. During this period which lasted to 1908 with later incursions the U.S. military supervised the development of the local military and implemented several public-works projects such as a modern railroad system. The Railroad Law records the legal side of this aspect of state-building. OCLC locates 5 copies in law libraries Duke Harvard Universities of Arizona Michigan and Minnesota. unknown books
