22h 57min, jan 19, 1986 y - Cuba launched Campaign of Rectification of Errors and Negative Tendencies
Description:
It aimed to increase people's participation in the economic and political structures and was a return to the ideas of Che Guevara: relying on heightened political consciousness rather than material incentives and bureaucratic control to run the economy.
In 1987, President Fidel Castro noted: "The most serious error of economic policy between 1975 and 1985 was undoubtedly the reliance upon economic mechanisms to resolve all the problems faced by the new society, ignoring the role assigned to political factors in the construction of socialism".
