En marzo de 2017 se encontraron en Madrid el autor y Roberto (Bobby) Batista, hijo del que fuera un humilde mestizo de origen campesino de la entonces provincia de Oriente, obrero ferroviario, luego sargento taquígrafo del Ejército, cabecilla de la “revolución de los sargentos” en 1933, convertido en general y jefe del Ejército en un turbulento período republicano que culminaría con la convocatoria de una plural Convención Constitucional, cuyo resultado fue uno de los textos más progresistas de América, la Constitución de 1940. Ese mismo año, Batista fue elegido democráticamente Presidente por un período de cuatro años y en 1944 dio paso al ganador de las elecciones, Ramón Grau San Martín. El 10 de marzo de 1952, Batista dio un golpe de Estado para deponer al gobierno de Carlos Prío Socarrás, electo democráticamente en 1948. En enero de 1959, Fidel Castro lo expulsó del poder, iniciando una revolución aún vigente. Al primer encuentro entre Jacobo Machover y Bobby Batista siguieron otros. En todos, ambos singulares exiliados, confrontaron sus experiencias y sus ideas en torno a la compleja valoración histórica de la polémica figura de Fulgencio Batista –el sargento revolucionario, el constitucionalista, el presidente democrático, el dictador… Y cómo su imagen, paradójica sin duda, ha sido convertida en una grotesca caricatura por sus enemigos. Sus diálogos necesariamente se ampliaron para evaluar y juzgar el período político iniciado por Fidel Castro, pronto convertido en un régimen totalitario amparado bajo una identidad comunista.

Four generations of women experience love, loss, war, and hope from the rise of Nazism to the Cuban Revolution and finally, the fall of the Berlin Wall in this sweeping novel from the bestselling author of the “timely must-read” (People) The German Girl. Berlin, 1931: Ally Keller, a talented young poet, is alone and scared when she gives birth to a mixed-race daughter she names Lilith. As the Nazis rise to power, Ally knows she must keep her baby in the shadows to protect her against Hitler’s deadly ideology of Aryan purity. But as she grows, it becomes more and more difficult to keep Lilith hidden so Ally sets in motion a dangerous and desperate plan to send her daughter across the ocean to safety. Havana, 1958: Now an adult, Lilith has few memories of her mother or her childhood in Germany. Besides, she’s too excited for her future with her beloved Martin, a Cuban pilot with strong ties to the Batista government. But as the flames of revolution ignite, Lilith and her newborn daughter, Nadine, find themselves at a terrifying crossroads. Berlin, 1988: As a scientist in Berlin, Nadine is dedicated to ensuring the dignity of the remains of all those who were murdered by the Nazis. Yet she has spent her entire lifetime avoiding the truth about her own family’s history. It takes her daughter, Luna, to encourage Nadine to uncover the truth about the choices her mother and grandmother made to ensure the survival of their children. And it will fall to Luna to come to terms with a shocking betrayal that changes everything she thought she knew about her family’s past. Separated by time but united by sacrifice, four women embark on journeys of self-discovery and find themselves to be living testaments to the power of motherly love.

¿Cómo murieron las soberanas más célebres de la Historia? Del suicidio de Cleopatra al dramático accidente de Astrid de Bélgica pasando por la decapitación de María Estuardo y de María Antonieta, el asesinato de Agripina, de Sissi y de Alejandra de Rusia, o la agonía edificante de Catalina de Médici, Ana de Austria, Catalina II, la reina Victoria o la emperatriz Eugenia, los más conspicuos historiadores y escritores narran sus últimos días en unos textos incisivos donde la nitidez del relato se apoya en investigaciones basadas en las mejores fuentes. Siempre trágicos, a menudo brutales, a veces espectaculares, inesperados o interminables, sus finales se parecen en su dignidad, en su civilidad monárquica del adiós, exaltada por la conciencia que estas reinas tenían de su rango y por la voluntad común de edificar la posteridad tras haber marcado su tiempo. Como si todas coincidieran en la soberbia divisa de María Estuardo: «En mi fin está mi principio». «Un fresco del poder supremo en femenino, desde la Antigüedad al siglo XX»: así definen Jean-Christophe Buisson y Jean Sévillia esta gran obra colectiva que han dirigido y que será un hito, tanto por sus cualidades literarias como por la mirada innovadora que posa sobre los últimos instantes de estas mujeres cuyos reinados cambiaron el mundo para siempre.

Roberto Batista Fernández es una persona discreta, rasgo que no oculta la valentía de acercarse con honradez y limpieza a la figura del Padre. Para ello, con lealtad poco frecuente, revela una memoria construida desde lo que su padre representa para él: fue su refugio, su maestro, conoció de sus manos la ternura y el cuidado. Pero esto no le impide asomarse a una vida política, plural y compleja, iluminada por una primera imagen de estadista, aunque empañada por los sucesos del 10 de marzo de 1952. Roberto se pregunta: “Cómo es posible que un hijo pueda juzgar a su padre?” Pues bien, en este libro lo ha hecho. No se recuerda entre los hijos de otros controvertidos gobernantes, desasistidos ya de todo poder, alguno que haya asumido una actitud tan íntegra y decorosa, a la vez que desgarradora.

Critical Terrorism Studies emerged around 2007, in the context of the rapidly intensifying War on Terror. It was in this era that "terrorism" became a "growth industry" which generated a huge amount of academic research as well as social and political activity. Yet a yawning gap developed between the actual material threat posed by terrorists, and the level of investment and activity devoted to responding to this threat. Similarly, the quality of terrorism research was noticeably weak and lacking in methodological rigour. Critical Terrorism Studies set out to explore the exceptional treatment of political violence, to challenge the political manipulation of terrorism fears and increase in draconian anti-terrorism legislation, and to address some of the conceptual and methodological failings of terrorism research. In the 10 years since the journal Critical Studies on Terrorism was launched, that context and mission remains as important as ever. This volume looks back on the achievements and failures of Critical Terrorism Studies in this period, as well as collecting state of the art research into terrorism discourse, queerness and the War on Terror, the Prevent Strategy, epistemology in terrorism studies, state repression, the ambiguous ends of militant campaigns, the epistemology of preventative counterterrorism, and the question of non-violent responses to terror. The chapters originally published in a special issue in Critical Studies in Terrorism.

When Cuba threw off the yoke of Spanish rule at the end of the nineteenth century, it did so with the help of another foreign power, the United States. Thereafter, the United States became involved in Cuban affairs, intervening twice militarily (1898-1902 and 1906-1909). What was the effect of U.S. intervention? Conventional wisdom indicates that U.S. intervention hindered the rise of militarism in Cuba in the early years of statehood. This pathfinding study, however, takes just the opposite view. Jose M. Hernández argues that while U.S. influence may have checked the worst excesses of the Independence-war veterans who assumed control of Cuba's government, it did not completely deter them from resorting to violence. Thus, a tradition of using violence as a method for transferring power developed in Cuba that often made a mockery of democratic processes. In substantiating this innovative interpretation, Hernández covers a crucial phase in Cuban history that has been neglected by most recent U.S. historians. Correcting stereotypes and myths, he takes a fresh and dispassionate look at Cuba's often romanticized struggle for political emancipation, describing and analyzing in persuasive detail civilmilitary relations throughout the period. This puts national hero Jose Martí's role in the 1895-1898 war of independence in an unusual perspective and sets in bold relief the historical forces that went underground in 1898-1902, only to resurface a few years later. This study will be of interest to all students of hemispheric relations. It presents not only a more accurate picture of the Cuba spawned by American intervention, but also the Cuban side of a story that too frequently has been told solely from the U.S. point of view.
