At the Ñico López Communist Party Higher School, professors from that institution, academics, researchers and scholars from the Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment (CITMA) and the Ministry of Higher Education, reflected on the validity of Marx’s work.

With Marx, for the first time, the foundations were laid for a correct and profound understanding of the future of society, said Isabel Monal, a PhD in Philosophical Sciences and Pedagogy, who gave a keynote address.

In her speech, she noted that throughout his life, Marx, who is considered the most influential political and social philosopher in the history of humanity, laid the foundations that would provide the poor and exploited with cognitive weapons for the transformation of the world international order.

“The peoples and men who strive and fight for a better world, without the exploited and without exploiters, continue to have in it and in Marx’s ideas an essential emancipatory tool,” she stressed.

At the event, where the interpretation, appropriation and contributions of the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, to Marxist theory were highlighted, several researchers and professors received the title of Doctors of Science.

Present at the tribute were the head of the Cadre Policy Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC), Humberto Hernandez; the rector of the PCC Higher School, Rosario Penton, and the director of Social and Humanistic Sciences of CITMA, Jorge Luis Dominguez.
