Sumario:The theoretical work of Louis Althusser found an unmatched space of critical reception in the years immediately following the Cuban revolution. Through translations, publications and polemics, Althusser had been constantly diffused in the socialist Cuba. This article seeks to articulate the critical reception of his writings emphasizing the works of Fernando Martinez Heredia, Zaira Rodriguez and Maria del Pilar Diaz, of one male and two female authors that discussed, criticized and assimilated differently the proposal of “althusserianism” depending on the theoretical climate in which occurred its reading.
