Fomentar la herejía“”: a Revista Pensamiento Crítico e os dilemas do intelectual na Revolução Cubana (1967-1971)

This article aims to shed light on the role of the journal Pensamiento Crítico in 1960s Cuba, as well as on the intellectual debates and disputes that arose around ideological and cultural issues within the revolutionary process, examining the role of intellectuals from a Gramscian perspective. This study seeks to understand how the journal was embedded in the intellectual controversies of the 1960s – including those surrounding Soviet textbooks – as well as the context of its emergence from the Department of Philosophy at the University of Havana and its closure in 1971, when the “sovietization” of Cuba began. To this end, I draw on the available bibliography, interviews, and issues of the magazine – primarily the editorials and introductory texts.
