Jorge Enea Spilimbergo ([?] - September 4, 2004) was an Argentine socialist and a revolutionary politician, poet, journalist, and writer, one of the founders of the Izquierda Nacional.
Spilimbergo wrote extensively on Latin America, the semi-colonial world, and Argentina in particular. His contributions on the national question and the inner fabric of imperialist policies, gathered in his The national question in Marx, are classic and are as useful to revolutionaries in the Third World as in the First.
He was influenced by such Marxist leaders and theoreticians as Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Mao Zedong, Ernesto Guevara and Ho Chi Minh. An Argentinian to the core, his contributions are original pieces of political work on themes of the overthrow of class societies and the passage from the realm of necessity to the realm of liberty.
Spilimbergo worked largely in obscurity as a nonperson, not only as a result of the usual marginalization of opposition by oligarchic structures of prestige, diffusion and acknowledgement, but also due to objections from both the political right and the left including from many Peronists, who objected primarily to his principled criticisms of the national bourgeois limitations of Peronism.
Spilimbergo died in Buenos Aires September 4, 2004.
