Havana, Nov. 27. - Marx and Engels did not look at the world from the same vantage point as Lenin; the first two did so from the most industrially developed Europe, a colonizing center of vast regions of the planet; Lenin, from one of the most backward economies in Europe, which nevertheless maintained dominance and cultural hegemony, as an empire, of extensive territories of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
