Rezension zu „Democracy And Revolution “
Raby meticulously traces the journeys to power of Castro and Chavez, painting a vivid and thorough background to the key individuals, groups and movements involved.' 'Raby writes in a clear and compelling style that broadens her audience beyond the academic field. -- Morning Star A useful corrective to the mountain of lies published in the media and circulated by New Labour toadies. -- Tariq Ali A thoughtful examination of the revolutionary experience and traditions of Latin America that suggests the dramatic anti-capitalist development of Cuba, coupled with the evolving theory and practice of Hugo Chavez's Venezuela, will provide lessons and encouragement for the contemporary Left across the globe. -- Richard Gott, author of Cuba: A New History, and Hugo Chavez and the Bolivarian Revolution
