The Great Debate on Political Economy

In the post-Soviet era, what is the relevance of Marxist economics? As Minister of Industry in the early years of the Cuban revolution, Che Guevara initiated an unprecedented and controversial debate on the economic challenges of the "transition to socialism." Internationally prominent Marxist economists such as Ernest Mandel and Charles Bettelheim participated in what became known as "the Great Debate."This book reveals an entirely new dimension to Che Guevara-beyond the young adventurer on a motorcycle or guerrilla icon-as a profound political and economic thinker.For the first time in English, these brilliant and unresolved economic ideas are collected, offering a unique resource for a new generation discussing alternatives to capitalism.
