¹ The Academy’s address is Aguiar 556, Havana; Dr. Ernesto Dihigo y López-Trigo, Director.

² For example, p. 70 (application of a Derecho ãe Igualdad). The accident of geographical proximity constitutes an overriding “razón natural” (p. 69).

³ For example, pp. 67-68. There is no mention of the fact that the peoples of the West Coast countries of South America do not, on the whole, care much for seafood, in spite of government efforts to raise consumption.

⁴ Cf. pp. 69-75, 79-82, 82-84. No thought appears to be given, either in percentages or absolute numbers, to “men” dependent directly and indirectly on the farming of the sea in the historically important fishing countries as compared with the same “men” of Peru-Chile-Ecuador (cf. p. 68).

⁵ Anything an underdeveloped coastal state does is “social and humane,” while distant-fishing interests are despoiling devils by definition. One wonders what would be said if a small socialist neighbor’s nationalized fishing fleet should become the “poachers” of the South Pacific.

⁶ In this context “revolution” is rebellion in order to bring about fundamental social change; simple insurrection is bent on restoration of the existing “legitimate” constitutional order being “disregarded” by the group actually in power.
