Abstract

Based on a critical analysis of the U.S. blockade against Cuba, this article seeks to reaffirm the validity of imperialism as an analytical category for the present reality. It calls into question the supposed contemporary multipolarity—embodied in the emergence of the BRICS—demonstrating its inability to protect alternative projects to capitalism. Drawing on the Marxist theory of dependency and the concept of super-exploitation, a normative redefinition of "effective multipolarity" is proposed, one that transcends diplomatic rhetoric and assesses the real capacity of the international order to safeguard transformative experiences against the international capital.
