Peter Schiff on CNBC-Live Editorials AGITATE71 3258 11/11/2008 22:48
Peter Schiff, an economic adviser for Ron Paul, talks to CNBC about an Obama presidency the day before the election.
Crisis in the Caucasus Editorials daschaich 1793 09/19/2008 22:36
How should Socialists address ethnic conflict abroad? We can play a positive role by aligning not with any nation, but only with working people throughout the world.
Review of "Revolution in the Air" by Max Elbaum Book Reviews daschaich 1948 07/12/2008 23:38
A solid history of the New Communist Movement, interesting from historical and "leftist trainspotting" perspectives.
Review of "Kronstadt 1917-1921" by Israel Getzler Book Reviews daschaich 3188 07/11/2008 03:46
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.
Review of Jack London's "The Iron Heel" Book Reviews daschaich 3109 06/27/2008 03:51
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.
Anatomy of a Successful Antiwar Movement Editorials PeopleUnite 2693 06/23/2008 05:02
by Matthew Andrews

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.

American Militarism and the Islamic World
Afghanistan. Iraq. Somalia. What do these three countries all have in common? They are all hotspots for Islamist organizations and are victims of recent ?anti-terrorist? American intervention. As these countries face political instability and violence from both sides of the war, our nation is coming even closer to an attack on Iran.

Consumerism and The Middle Class
I feel that our country is sick. The world is sick. I hate what I see at home and abroad. I am afraid that if this system continues to function, we are looking at a worldwide collapse of government and democracy.

Education Privatization in the United States
Neoliberals around the world have been pushing for privatization of services in the public sector since the 1980s. And Milton Friedman was ahead of his time; promoting privatized education since the 1950s. Education is an $850 billion industry in the United States alone. This can only mean one thing to businessmen: a new market to exploit!

Internationalism and the Spanish Civil War
Many wars have been fought in history. Wars over trade, religion, politics. But in history only a few wars can claim any sort of ?just? cause. Strangely enough one of the few wars that can claim this had been long forgotten. We almost never learn about it in history class

Minimum Wage and the Nature of Private Ownership
Recently, proposals have been introduced into the California State Legislature that would raise the minimum wage to $7.75 an hour by 2007, and an alternate version sponsored by the Democrats would actually tie it to inflation in order to combat the subsequent rise in prices.

No Purchase Necessary
There are a lot of different ideas and opinions out there about what socialism actually is. Some ideas are specific, practical applications of social and economic theory. Some ideas are vague concepts of cooperation and goodwill among humankind. Some ideas are deliberate obfuscations and exaggerated nonsense used for ridicule and self aggrandizement. But what is socialism really?

Post-K
Tomorrow is the much-discussed anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, and politicians of all stripes are spinning the recovery to suit their agendas. I just got back from five days in New Orleans, helping United Teachers of New Orleans reorganize their union after craven politicians took the opportunity to try to smash it. The city is in a truly sorry shape, with hardly any meaningful rebuilding having taken place in the last year.

What do you think of Chavez's Fifth International?

It's the best thing since sliced bread!

It has potential, but I'm reserving judgment.

Shouldn't this be, like, the Seventh or Eighth International?

It's doomed. Doomed, I say!

What? Never heard of it.

@SocRed15 Rebuilding offers plenty of room for recorruption. Cleaning out house the house would be plenty easier.
