In this book, Ahmed Sekou Toure expresses the ideology of the Guinea Revolution. Beginning with an historical analysis of the condictions in pre-Independence Guinea, he goes on to examine the " groundwork of the revolution" and to define the principles, orientation and methods of the Democratic Party of Guinea (PDG). Among the subjects covered are socialist economic planning, education, the position of women, justice, pan-African and foreign policies, political and administrative structures, and revolutionary culture. The Guinea experience is of great relevance to all peoples engaged with replacing the structure of exploitation with those of socialism, and, in this Panaf edition of Sekou Toure's important work, the author provides a valuable account of the philosophy and progress of the Guinea Revolution in the Pan-African context.
