Description
Revolution in the Revolution? Armed Struggle and Political Struggle in Latin America by Regis Debray is a thought-provoking assessment of the situation in Latin America during the 1960s. First published in 1967, it has become a seminal work on guerrilla warfare and revolution, alongside Che's own writings. Debray's book offers a candid and compelling analysis of various strategies, including those from Russia and China, as well as Trotskyism. Written at a time when Debray was facing his own struggles with the law, this book provides a unique insight into the complexities of revolutionary politics. Its publication in 1967 coincided with Debray's conviction for guerrilla activities in Bolivia, leading to a thirty-year prison sentence. This book is a valuable contribution to our understanding of Latin America's tumultuous past, and its impact can still be felt today.
