         Huberman and Sweezy, the Marxist Critics, have made an analysis of the land reform of the Alliance for Progress and have proved that it had no probability for success. The city bourgeoisie of Latin America would not give up its’ spots easily; in its place, a more practical step was required to give a impulse to the nonviolent revolution. A perfect example to this point that was made by the two researchers is the agrarian agenda that was accepted in Guatemala from 1952 till 1953. These two man which have made a decision to carry out the reform belonged to social democrats of a middle class, where the aim was 200,00 acres of unfarmed land possessed by the United Fruit Co. The Government of Guatemala determined the fee for the land, which was about $3.6 million for the ground in twenty-five year unions with 3% annually, that was the objective price of the land in 1952. In spite of this, the United Fruit Co. organized a complaint against for the sum of $16 million in opposition to government of Guatemala for unlawfully expropriated lands. The argument was finally settled at the time the United States dropped the assumed policy and the land has been returned to the company United Fruit. A comparable land improvement has been started in Cuba which was as well doomed to crash. In 1959, the Agrarian Reform forbidden anyone from holding over 995 acres of farm lands and 3,316 of ranch ones. Recompense for the property has been given out in the mode of twenty-year bonds through 4% annual interests. Later in the same year, a message has been delivered to the administration in Cuba that affirmed that even supposing that the U.S. grounds could have been confiscated, and adequate recompense should have gone after, but it never did.
