Fidel Castro



Castro has come under criticism from anarchists. Frank Fernández, Cuban anarchist author and a long-time editor of anarchist periodical Guángara Libertaria, documented that Cuban anarchists, who's aim was to end military dictatorship and political corruption, actively involved in the resistance movement against the dictatorship of Batista.[162] A 1956 pamphlet titled Proyecciones Libertarias criticized Castro along with Batista because "he [didn't] respect promises and only fought for power".[162] After coming to power, Castro expelled all top anarcho-syndicalist from the Workers' Central Union of Cuba (CTC) in January 1959 labeling them as collaborators of Batista regime.[163] In 1960, official Castro organ Revolucion started anti-anarchist campaign through false accusations.[164] From summer of 1961, anarchists began to flee Castro's Cuba and settled in the United States where they had contacts with American anarchists.[165] By the 1960s, anarchists in Cuba were abused, maltreated and even tortured in prisons.[166] Repression of anarchists was intense from 1961 to 1972.[167] Frank Fernández writes:

Curiously, according to political prisoners freed in the decade 1970-1980, the population of political prisoners in the "socialist" Cuban gulags came overwhelmingly from working class and campesino backgrounds. There should be no dispute about this, given the mass of evidence: the Castro regime persecuted its proletarian and campesino enemies far more vigorously than its capitalist enemies. Many anarchists suffered greatly under this policy.[168]

According to Workers Solidarity Movement member Dermot Sreenan, Cuba has a ruling class which is composed of a bureaucracy and the elite of the country includes professionals such as academics, scientists and those responsible for management who are "rewarded with praise and prizes as long as they remain uncritical". The ruling class of the Marxist government is "bonded together by a fear of the working class". According to Sreenan, although the Cuban government blame the US embargo as a cause behind the weak economy of the nation, Cuba has trade relations with the United States through several front companies. Sreenan analyzes that Castro did not form any "socialism" in Cuba, and the United States does not like Castro's government "not because it is some sort of 'socialist' paradise but because its very existence challenges Washington's political monopoly in Central and South America" which they want to replace with an obedient government. The working class of the nation have been paralyzed after Castro formed a new bureaucracy in Cuba. Sreenan opines "the working class in Cuba need to unite and fight the ruling class who reap the rewards from their island".[169]
