In the present study is intended to demonstrate that, despite the existence of a theory of communist transition elaborated by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, it never was the basis for any self-proclaimed communist revolutionary movement, especially for the Cuban Revolution of 1959, our object of analysis in this work. Communism, which can be built consciously by organized workers that are seeking for their emancipation - especially since the twentieth century, when the material productive forces reached a high stage of development and countries, no longer isolated, may develop themselves technologically and industrially without traveling the same typical stages of the long and slow formation of modern capitalist societies - never was indeed the objective to be achieved by Cuban revolutionaries who seized power in the late 1950s and that decreed the socialist character of that Revolution in 1961. Far even from fulfill the basic dictates regarding the profound democratization of their society thought by Marx in his theory of revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat (first stage of communist transition), Cuban leaders have invested in the complete nationalization of the country to try to promote the radical changes that would take away the biggest Caribbean island of its structural poverty bequeathed by more than 400 years of colonialism and neocolonialism. In spite of having been successful in the task of promoting a significant improvement in the lives of its people, the Revolution of Fidel and Raul Castro was far from being unequivocally the driving motor of building a communist society and the emancipation of Cuban workers.
