War as an Intense Human Activity
Abstract
The commencing report attempts to exemplify war as an intense human activity which requires moral, technical, social, economic and political commitment. This is a close analysis that war has mostly been applied to carry out global human ideologies, for instance, communism or capitalism. In any event, war is used as a rebellion against a prevailing force, and its calling is essential in challenging that prevailing system. This paper will attempt to indicate how war is primarily responsible of eliminating robust Marxist ideologies of socialism, religion and economic welfare. The paper is structured into three main parts. First, the part one will introduce Marxism and how war will be a collective effort to develop the theory. This part will call for factual evidence vital in relating war to the general concept of humanity, primarily calling for communism, socialism or religious dogmatism. The second part will appoint a subject, which in this case is Ernesto Che Guevara. The third part will prevail on my comments, as a responsive subject to the concept contribution to war.
Background
The relationship between diverse political ideologies and their contribution to developing war theories has been extensively researched. A close relationship of this is the development of Marxist war theories, chiefly based on revolutionaries. Again, the influence of social and economic conditions of servitude (largely borrowed from medieval Europe) grounds the occurrence of Marxist war ideology. Further to this, to develop a theory of self protectionism, Marxist ideology endeavors in developing robust revolutionary expansionist policies. These are policies which look into a close consideration that war and belligerence are naturally good for their contribution in developing the ideology. The Marxist revolutionary and war ideology is heavily based on dogmatism. Dogmatism is in this case essential in developing a psychologist theory; one which attempts to look in the concept of dynamism of the relevant economic good of the jurisdiction. Smrz (2010, p. 9) argues that inner source of tension and dynamism employed by Marxist ideology is primarily used to promote patriotic backing in favor of the ideology. To achieve results, research has attempted to showcase how Marxist ideology employ concepts, with war, music and film being close examples.
The commencing discussion is significant in drawing lines between Marxist revolution theories and the general economic welfare of subjects in that jurisdiction. In this event, revisiting the importance of war in championing these ideologies becomes a major concern. Coulomb (2004, p. 103) argues that Marx claims the scientific character of his work which tries to contest the argument of the classical political economy, one primarily based on the superiority of capitalism. To carry forward the good of socialism, Marx attempts to distinguish from Utopian theories. As an advisory, Marx advocates the application of brutality and belligerence in what he calls realism. Also, it is prudent to acknowledge the significance of Marxism against religion.
In this event, the realization that Marxist ideology were primarily against the good prospects of religion is a substantial indication that great degrees of negligence grounded the development of Militarist ideologies. Siegel (2005, p. 2005) argues that Marxism heavily relates religion devotion to capitalism. In his quote, the sense of popularly accepted use of religion as a belief in God or gods is relevance to the use of spirits, which in their making, provide a doctrine about a given social order. For instance in a close extract, it is apparent that Religious believe is a private matter (Marx et al, 2001 p. 90). The argument passed here, was religion applied by capitalist philosophy to deprive the material possession through a doctrine of devotion. With this presentation, the following discussion attempts to signify the importance war in carrying robust Marxist ideologies. The following section will appoint Che Guevara approach to Marxist militarism and the relevant contribution that Guevara made in the military disciplines.
Subject Contribution to War
An eminent presentation of Marxist ideology is developing a militarist faction, one interested in carrying communist ideologies. The faction is led by one defacto leader, whose ambitions spread beyond personal material reward to the bold development of Marxist militarism. A close example of this is Ernesto Che Guevara Born in June 14, 1928. Che was an Argentine Marxist author, diplomat, guerilla, and revolutionary leader. Che is symbolically identified in his contribution to the Cuban Revolution, which was a vicious rebellion against existing capitalist ideologies.
Che Early communist ambitious were radicalized by the experience of how capitalism was primarily responsible for diseases, hunger and poverty. Che earliest military effort can be experienced in his contribution on the Guatemala social reforms, which further inspired the Caribbean Marxist lead revolution, Cuba. I would personally Grade Che Guevara with a good A. The chief reason for this is that unlike other military leaders, Che was a foreigner who never had sufficient resources. Compared to other Marxist military leaders; for instance, Lenin/ Stalin or Mao Tse Tsang (who happened to be Russian or Chinese Natives), Che was interested in restoring social normalcy in multiple countries, which he never had native backing, and war presented a sufficient strategy.
Secondly, I would give Che an A for his application in of both bush and urban guerrilla. For instance, in his entry to the network of Frank Pais presented a successful strategy in uninstalling unproductive capitalist government. Thirdly, I would give Che an A for his rejuvenation of economic conditions in conquered areas. In most of these areas, the presence of public utilities was not evident. These were amenities; for instance, schools, electricity, and healthcare. Che together with his political brother Fidel Castro established these utilities promptly (James, 2001, p. 39).
Fourthly, Che successfully maintained internal military cohesion; for instance, defectors and traitors were heavily punished with death penalties. This was the case when Eutimio Guerra who was executed for apparently giving away a rebel military camp to the Cuban Army for ten thousand Pesos (Dosal, 2004, p.83). Fifthly, Che contribution to professional military development cannot be ignored. Che maintained the role of being a teacher and a theorist. This was vital in developing literacy within the rebel groups. As a replica, primary education was carried out by rebel soldiers. Finally, Che commitment to brotherhood in front of the battle cannot be ignored. For instance, Iglesias Joel, a teenage rebel was heavily wounded, and in that event, Che emerged and carried him from the battlefield (Toledo, 2011). This is an example that Che was heavily committed to the army in developing professionalism and combat demands.
Comments
Scholarly, Marxist militant effort can be acknowledged for the merits in uprooting the general social evil (servitude exemplified through capitalism). It is evident from the above two parts that; Marxism was slowly in restoring periodical normalcy required for economic development in Latin America. In Che’s case, attention is greatly experienced in his effort in improving Cuban economic condition. The commencing discussion will examine an intrinsic contribution of Che to war, as well as, examining the positive social economic results experienced in the process. As Cole (2010, p. 110) argues War, no doubt is the Proletariat opportunity to front contentious economic conditions, which are relatively followed with sequential periods of unrest. This is a clear indication that war provides a sequence of economic pre-visitation, primarily vital in apprehending deep rooted social and economical conditions.
The Social War (Propaganda)
When meditating the influence of Che into the general war, it is prudent to balkanize war in the contest of how various events lead to each other, as well as, the various forms of wars that Che fought. In his propaganda war, Che managed to present the concept of equality and religion this were heroic conditions, which were primarily responsible in criticizing prevailing social capitalist ideologies. In fact, some of the social motives are still considered iconic. For instance, the Anti American sentiment was primarily responsible in uprooting American backed western backed ideology of class factors. To carry out a lucid Marxist ideology, it was essential that equality was to be achieved. For Che, the hurdle was grounded on how successful ideologies were presented to the general public. In any event, it was technically challenging to convince the masses that Marist backed revolutionary ideas were applicable while across the Sea a capitalist giant USA was carrying out robust capitalist initiatives. To carry out a social war, Che centered his effort against the negative impacts of imperialism and capitalism. He signified his effort was engineered to uproot perennial capitalist poverty, courtesy of social class factors, which were accused heavily for subjecting black people into slavery.
The technical war (Guerilla)
The Social war was primarily grounded in achieving a lucid economic war. However, attaining an economic war was not possible since western backed dictators; for instance, Batista significantly cooperated with American government both economically and politically. This not only made Batista regime stronger, but also negative capitalist ideologies of corruption were implemented. In response, Che developed a highly sophisticated military one which primarily provided technical guerilla warfare. Guevara (2009, p. 76) discusses the necessity to employ complex military gear, use of machine guns and other weaponry which can cause great damage to the adversary was substantial. The military techniques requested by Che were grounded on the use of viscosity severally (Guevara, Loveman, & Davies, 1985, p. 154) it is essential to note that the Che rebel group did not employ passive-defense strategies but instead, defense and attack were recognized as powerful strategies of combat. In his wording, we must try to oblige the dictatorship to resort to violence, thereby unmasking its true nature as the dictatorship of the reactionary social classes (Guevara, Loveman, & Davies, 1985, p. 154). However, it is good to note that Che Militarism was entirely based on democracy. Primarily, Che defined the application of guerilla in Latin America as an abrupt measure to respond to the visible head of exploiters. In a close examination, Che attempts to ask what the military contributes to democracy, and in any case, that loyalty does not exist in the western world, which was heavily poisoned by dominion. This was evident that Che was more interested in applying militarism to address social grievances, which formed the basis of economic disparities. Che further developed the theory of Clausewitzian, which he applied as an explanation for the continuation of revolutionary policies, those entirely based in using belligerence and militarism against rivals of the wide Marxist ideology.
The Economic War (Development)
The basis of Che Marxism was primarily centered on achieving coherent economic results. As this essay has examined, it is apparent that Che was primarily disturbed by the US backed Batista Imperialism and Capitalism which were chiefly responsible for perennial poverty not only in Cuba but the entire Latin America. The essay has further categorized the various forms of war that Che got involved in to achieve social and political power. The economic war enlisted here was a communist response, which sought to clarify that communist regimes were in a position of providing decent lives to their countrymen. To commence with, Che attacked US stimulus programs, for instance, $ 20 billion dollar economic aid, for a period of ten years was unrealistic for the development of Latin America. Further to this, Che continuously uninstalled American programs which had subjected 40 percent of adult Cubans to illiteracy. In metrics, Che envisioned Cuba being a leading exporter of steel and cement. Core concern of their four year manifesto was a massive expansion in Cuba energy through rejuvenation of electrical and petroleum industries. Other affairs on the manifesto were development of industries concerned with tractors, textiles, shoes and rayon (James, 138, p. 138). In a long thought speech, Che responded to agriculture concerns, saying that Cuba intended to realize self-sufficiency in the production of foodstuffs, fats and rice as primary products. Also, more concern was put into products; for instance cotton. The necessity of economic war recurred back to the initial initiation of a social war and a technical war. Predominantly, an economic war would ensure that Cuba had sufficient resources to re-equip its military. For instance, the success of the Che ideologies was directly responsible for improvement of economic conditions. In this case, Cuba was in a position to carry robust foreign policies with the 1975 Angolan occupation being a close relevance of Che contribution to Marxist based war.
Conclusion
This paper has attempted to showcase the importance of war in the development of general humanism. The paper has appointed Ernesto Che Guevara effort in military warfare of native Latin America. The paper has been structured into three core section, firstly, factual information illuminating to the discussion, which in this case, appoints Marxist ideologies as war development strategies. In particular, the paper has introduced interrelationship between social war, technical and economic war and how the three depend on each other for the general development of war.
