The purpose of this thesis is to engage in an objective study of the influence of the United States on Martis thought during his lengthy stay in that country, enumerating the different social problems that led him to change his preconceived notions of the country before his arrival, and how this influence strengthened his attitude after leaving prison. / An attempt will also be made to explain why his determination to struggle for the liberation of Cuba acquired continental dimensions, when he became the spokesman for what he called "the greater fatherland", after having anxiously observed the danger hovering over Latin America due to the growth of United States imperialism that threatened neighbouring countries. The thesis will utilize Jose Martis chronicles and articles which will be used for illustrative purposes. These will not imply any prejudice or bias. / In order to understand Jose Martis attitude towards the United States, it will be necessary to study Martis concept of "Our America". For this purpose, the essential ideas in Martis messages will be analysed, establishing a parallel between Martis action and his thought.
