"The transition to socialism marks the first time in history that growing political consciousness and control by working people hold the key to economic progress. This book looks to the theoretical contributions to build socialism by Ernesto Che Guevara from 1959 to 1966, when he shouldered wide-ranging duties in the Cuban revolutionary government. Is "profit" a useful yardstick? What is the role of the market? Of economic planning? Of material incentives and voluntary work? In an October 1987 speech of Carlos Tablada's book: "The author compiled, studied, and presented ... articles and speeches dealing with a subject so decisive in the building of socialism.""
