Thinking as a country: Martí and Fidel thoughts linkage

Abstract

The improvement of the Cuban economic and social development model is redefined thanks to the idea of thinking as a country with a national vocation. The transformations of socialism stand out for their cultural imprint and, consequently, for the interest of scrutinizing the roots of the processes of assimilation-appropriation, cognitive and axiological, that shape its identity as a people and nation. The intention is to integrate and synthesize the cultural heritage of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to continue in accordance with current cultural and educational demands. Maintaining its own thought, as an authentic expression of the collective and idiosyncratic Cuban imaginary, becomes an antidote to the cultural media war sponsored by the enemies of the Revolution.
