Abstract

The recent English publication of Che Guevara's (1995) journal of his youthful motorcycle trip through South America, The Motorcycle Diaries, has generated a resurgence of public interest in the iconic figure of Che. The publicity blurb on the back of the book represents Che as a South American James Dean who embarked on a journey of discovery and adventure. In our opinion this comparison is extremely misleading because it confuses individual rebellion with true social revolution. This confusion makes the formulation of a radical praxis difficult because it mistakes the angst of youth for transformative social struggle. Just as Che and James Dean may be muddled so too may the attempts to build a radical praxis in Anglo-American and Latin American archaeologies be confused.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
