  • Essay / The Cuban Revolution and Animal Farm - 1036

    It is said that the German philosopher Karl Marx was the founding father of communism. He said that both the capitalist system and the free market system were cases of inequality and exploitation. In this article, we will explain how the Cuban revolution was very similar to the Animal Farm revolution. First there will be a brief explanation about the Cuban revolution. It won't stop there: key elements of the revolution, including historical figures such as names and important documents related to the revolution, will also be explained. Once you know enough about the Cuban Revolution, it will be compared to Animal Farm. It will include side-by-side comparisons and explanations of the main characters, documentation, events, and results. And finally, I will explain, in my opinion, whether my revolution and Orwell's vision of revolution speak to us about humanity. Also lessons learned about the people of the Cuban Revolution. The Cuban Revolution was a civil war in the years 1953-1959. The dictator Fulgencio Batista was not appreciated by his people. No one had tried to overthrow him because of his army. Then came Fidel Castro, he spent most of 1952 recruiting members and stockpiling munitions for his army. They slowly conquered and defeated Fulgencio Batista's forces using guerrilla warfare and winning small battles. Eventually, Castro's forces took him to Cuba's capital, Havana. The opposing forces did not return fire because their commander ordered them not to. Castro then took over. He ordered the execution of anyone loyal to the former leader. At the same time, many reforms are being undertaken within the government. First it was about good improvements such as equality laws for black Cubans and better rights for women. Many improvements we...... middle of paper ......ro are similar to the expulsion of Farmer Jones. It was the last attempt to oust the dictator and it worked. Another event that I see as parallel is Karl Marx's speech with that of Old Major. They both explained the beauty of communism, but also brought all humans and animals together to work together toward a common goal. Humanity in general will never stop changing or evolving. It's just in our nature. If we don't like the way something is going, we will always try to change it no matter what, even if it requires violence. Personally, I think that we humans will never achieve the goal of a perfect world. There will always be something that humans want to change. For example, Orwell said: “If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face – forever. » There will always be problems in this world. We might be able to change it, but another one will be coming soon.
