Abstract

A path through the historical moment in which Ernesto-Che- Guevara made his transcendental participation in therevolutionary action is presented. First, there is an account of the socio-economic and political conditions in which the oligarchic and tyrannical governments had submitted Cuba before 1959. Then, some moments of the executions during the Cuban revolutionary process are highlighted as well as Che’s participation in it. The article also raises the circumstances in which this legendary fighter, being critical with the inconsistency of the revolutionary directions of the Soviet Union and China, urged the leaders of both processes to unify in order to achieve an internationalist and proletarian vision of the world revolution. Moreover, the moment in which Che Guevara fell in Bolivia, in 1967 is highlighted. Finally, a balance is made of both the Latin American situation and local one related to the times that arose after the death of the man who became a global insignia.
