Committee for the Defense of the Revolution / Comite de Defensa de la Revolucion / Comite de Defense de la Revolution cover title
1965réf. 6257Habana 1965. Very good. 16pp. Oblong pamphlet in original pictorial wrappers stapled. Light wear and toning at wrapper edges with a few faint creases. Internally clean. A visually rich pro-Casto and pro-Communist pamphlet that highlights the history and core activities of Cuba's Committee for the Defense of the Revolution CDR neighborhood-based civil defense organizations created by Castro in 1960 to defend the revolution and maintain social and political control at the local level. This often included activities like surveillance distribution of propaganda and vigilante justice. The pamphlet is illustrated with photos throughout and also contains a two-page spread with maps of the island and charts data and statistics about the Cuban people. It contains a year-by-year account of the Committee's achievements and activities and ends with a section concerning its relations with other countries and their visits to Cuba. The rear wrapper states that editions were published in English French and Spanish as evidenced by the trilingual title on the front cover but we find no evidence of any edition in OCLC. Scarce and with much interesting and propagandized information about Castro's local enforcers during the early years of the Communist regime. unknown
