Living as Though the Truth Were True: Dorothy Day and the Catholic Worker
In Working Firewood for the Night, Lloyd van Brunt wrote these lines in a poem titled "The Stars Like Minstrels Sing to Blake": It's necessary to reach out for bodies/ struck by lightning/ slumped on city streets these days/ superstitious bodies/ lying there all exposed/ blazed with the mark of Cain/ bundles that might explode/ and light you up like a Christmas tree.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent a…

A Serious Flaw in Kovel; A Response to W. H. Locke Anderson; A Reply to Joel Kovel
To disagree with a review in Monthly Review by its Associate Editor of a book that is dedicated to Paul Sweezy and Harry Magdoff (and to Alger Hiss) is not a task to be taken lightly. But, in as comradely a spirit as I can muster, I would like to take issue with W. H. Locke Anderson's review (MR, May 1994) of Joel Kovel's Red Hunting in the Promised Land.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are …

Haiti: God and the Big Battalions
Around the time of Clinton's inauguration, the New York Times published an op-ed article by Anna Husarska, a staff writer for the New Yorker. This piece seemed to represent an attempt on the part of the Times to achieve some sort of "editorial balance." The preceding article by Haiti's exiled President jean-Bertrand Aristide had stated the case for speedy restoration of lawful government in his country. Ms. Husarska, who appears to be against law…

The Future of Socialism: Editor's Preface
It has been quite a while since MR has produced a summer issue in which several authors address various aspects of a common theme. Normally, it is a major organizational task to assemble enough pieces to make such a project possible at all, not to mention to assure that the various contributions are all first-rate. The last time this happened was four years ago, in July-August 1986, when David Himmelstein and Steffie Woolhandler produced Science,…
A Delinquent Account
The American Economic Association, now more than a century old, has always taken an interest in teaching in general and the teaching of economics in particular. Its annual meetings periodically include "round table discussions" on these matters. In the early years, one of the main themes was whether teachers ought openly to air their views on questions of public interest, both inside and outside the university. At a formal and explicit level, it …
On the Shortfalls and Brutalities of Rural Maoism; Letters from Whitey
The terrible turn in China has delayed this rejoinder to William H. Hinton. Hinton's views and mine coincide on some matters, among them the recent events in China and the need for a democratic direction there, but we view the Maoist performance in the countryside very differently. Hinton mistakenly wrote that the main issue in our debate is "the viability of agricultural producers' cooperatives as a basis for the rural economy of China." An atte…

The View Through the Bullet-Proof Perspex
The intellectuals of capitalist society are not bashful about theorizing about themselves. Far from it. For most of them a certain amount of self-admiration counts as work, and it pays therefore to be introspective in public. Such reflection leads to a steady if narrow stream of intellectual biography, methodology, sociology of knowledge, and criticism. Most of it tends to flatter intellectuality in general, if not every particular thinker, and t…

Neoclassical Marxism
Apologizing for Capitalism
Like most graduate programs that train economists for the academic mainstream, the one at the University of Michigan has a very rigid and abstract curriculum in the first year or two. Although students understand that they need to learn mathematics, statistics, and conventional economic theory to enter the profession, they cannot seem to see why their courses have no apparent bearing on the social problems that led many of them to study economics…
