| Getzler's 1983 history of "Red Kronstadt", a town and naval base outside St. Petersburg, is a valuable look at a vibrant multi-party Soviet democracy, which flourished from the February 1917 Revolution until it was strangled by the Bolsheviks in 1918. The famous 1921 "Kronstadt uprising" is explained as nothing more than a desperate attempt to restore the revolutionary democracy of 1917. |

| It's been 100 years since this dystopian novel of plutocratic oppression was first published. Although often described as a socialist novel, London's conflicted work reveals more about its author than anything else. |

This summer there will be a National Assembly to End the Iraq War and Occupation in Cleveland, Ohio (http://natassembly.org). One of the main goals of the assembly will be to lay the groundwork for mass action against the war. At first glance, 2008 seems like an unlikely year to jump start a sluggish antiwar movement. With the elections this fall, the political pressure to line up behind the Democratic Party’s slate of candidates is already peeling away our fair weather friends from those of us who are serious about building an independent antiwar movement. |
