The Guanahacabibes camp, was a labor camp in the Guanahacabibes Peninsula of Cuba, established in 1960[1] by Che Guevara. The characterizing of the camp has been a point of controversy among historians. This controversy is mainly due to the scant official documentation of the camp, because the facility was extra-legal, as well as the variety of personal accounts used retroactively to describe the camp. There is general agreement that it was a sort of labor camp, but some historians stress the voluntary nature of the labor, while others refer to the camp as a sort of "concentration camp" that served as a model for later repressions in Cuba.[2][3]
