126 years after the rise to immortality of José Martí, his anti-imperialist legacy continues to summon us for the full validity of his ideas. At just 18 years old, he announced what could be called the prelude to his founding anti-imperialism. His criticism, in his first notebook, given the premature approach to the American reality and the judgments it issues, it seems as if he had lived or directly known the course of events that are occurring in North America and characters that are describing to that new society in comparison with old Europe, with the old peninsular of Spain and even with colonial Cuba.

The important anniversary was propitious to present in the morning of today, in reduced composition before the Scientific Council of the ESCEG to the presentation of the theoretical methodological design of the subject in option to the scientific degree of Doctor of Legal Sciences: The legal war that sustains the blockade of the United States against Cuba in the light of International Law; presented by Msc. Dimas herrera Gando. Prosecutor of the Attorney General of the Republic (FGR).

The exposed subject takes into account different dimensions that go from the legal war, the blockade as a manifestation of that war and the violation itself of International Law.
