EDITORIAL 59: STABILITY: A NEED AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR, AND OF, ALL
The daily life of each citizen and of the nation requires, first of all, stability. Were we to be asked: what are at this time some of the key words in Cuba, and in the world? we would reply: uncertainty, restlessness, vicissitude.

In fact, instability, nervousness, and feeling out of sorts does grave damage to the quality of people’s lives...

Also we remember our greatest poet Dulce María Loynaz who wielded that versicle to express her opinion in relation to the old philosophical debate of what came first: the word or the action. The word is the distinctive and exclusive expression of the human condition. When there are censured words in acountry, something is hurt in its humanity. When...
