198186364Havana 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.".

19624785Various locations in Cuba Europe and the United States 1962. Very good. 113 leaves of scrapbook cardstock illustrated with 388 photographs chiefly silver gelatin photographs several colored or in color in mounting corners. Most captioned in Spanish. Square folio. Contemporary brown cloth spring-loaded spine front cover stamped "CUBA." Joints split but holding well moderate rubbing and dust-soiling. Light foxing handful of images lacking some images slightly browned or with mild edge wear. An extensively-annotated vernacular family photograph album centering on the German-Cuban Coyula-Moeller family picturing their lives family members travels and more in Cuba the United States Germany and other locations in Europe mainly during the 1920s and '30s. The album was likely compiled by Gerardo Coyula y Moeller who was born in the early-1920s and attended Aloisiuskolleg in Bad Godesberg in the late-1930s. The album includes numerous pictures of Coyula y Moeller as a toddler young man and teenager traveling with his mother and various family members attending school and more with numerous photographs featuring the family and their environs in Cuba and Germany. The caption to a family photograph indicates that the Coyula family were shareholders in the German Club "Club Aleman" in Havana from 1939 to 1960. Other family members identified through the profuse captions include Aunt Merci Aunt Hortensia Uncle Gustavo Estela grandfather Enrique Moeller grandmother Rosa Gelpi and others.<br /> <br /> The album also contains several photographs relating to the Nazi Party in Germany before the war as well as two photographs with captions poignantly noting one young man who would die in a concentration camp in Germany. One of the latter examples pictures a young man named Gerd Wolf with the Spanish caption translated as "Rabbi Fidellis eating bananas - He was with the Resistance and died in the Dachau concentration camp." The Coyula y Moeller family were apparently shareholders in a German casino in Cuba. Notably an antecedent of the family was apparently friends with a German individual who is documented as later helping usher Hitler into power and the album records two additional Nazi individuals who "visited grandfather's house" and "fled to Brazil" to escape the consequences of their war crimes. Yet another family photograph shows a group of adults posed in a garden with the caption reading: "Nuestro amigo: Resulto ser Himmler" "Our friend: turned out to be Himmler". Indeed the image shows the man third from right is clearly Heinrich Himmler.<br /> <br /> In addition to pictures of the family at home in Cuba the album captures them in various locations in Germany mainly Bonn Hamburg and the aforementioned Bad Godesberg. The family also traveled to New York in the United States and Southampton England among other places with several photographs documenting their travels in each location. The album is also replete with identified photographs of a legion of family friends and acquaintances providing ample opportunity for deeper research into the connections within the family but also to the family's larger community. According to a previous owner the album came out of the noted Weber family in Cuba. An exceptional and well-preserved collection presenting the lives of this noted German-Cuban family. unknown
