Calderio was a Cuban politician and a leading theoretician of the Cuban Revolution who led Cuba's pre-revolutionary Communist part for 28 years. Born Francisco Calderio in Manzanillo, Cuba, he changed his name to Roca, meaning 'rock', after joining the Communist Party in 1929. He wrote numerous books, articles and pamphlets before and after the revolution, including The Foundations of Socialism in Cuba which became one of the main textbooks used by the Schools of Revolutionary Instruction following the triumph of the Cuban Revolution.
