Revolution and Memory , to be held in Havana from October 21 to 25, 2019.

This third edition of the School “Critical Paradigms of Emancipation in the Caribbean and Latin America” will take place on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, which triumphed on January 1, 1959. This event transformed the history of the continent and the developing world, leaving a profound mark on subsequent political behavior, the reconfiguration of international relations, and radically influencing the role of subjectivity, approaches to education, culture, health, women's participation, and even the very ways of knowing. Revolutions, as radical changes, have left deep imprints on the history of the Caribbean as a region, with outstanding events such as those in Haiti, Cuba, and Grenada, as well as the significant revolutions in neighboring Mexico, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and the Greater Caribbean. However, how and why do these events remain, or not, in our collective memory? What value do they hold for recovery and contemporary relevance?

At the same time, insofar as the revolutions in this region of the hemisphere were radical processes that turned the values ​​assumed by the traditions of the American colonies and republics on their head, they have impacted racial, patriarchal, class, and gender relations, influencing the ways in which these relations are emancipated from the assumptions upon which they are based. In this sense, in addition to the issues surrounding the revolution and its enduring presence in memory, the school will incorporate reflection on these two axes: race-womanhood-social class; and racial relations-patriarchal relations-class relations.
