Response to Lukin Robinson; Reply to Ken Morrison
I am astonished! Here I thought that Monthly Review was a socialist, marxist-informed journal and then it publishes Lukin Robinson's "The Ontario Election and After." Where is an analysis of the reality of governing in a non-sovereign province within a capitalist state? Where is the comparison of the Ontario New Democratic Party's performance during a period of economic crises in comparison with that of social democratic parties in Great Britain,…
Ponting's Churchill—A Response; Reply to Lukin Robinson; Response to the Editors' Comments; Responsibility of the Press
I do not like Ponting's book and I disagree with John Newsinger's review. Ponting is relentlessly negative and meanspirited. There is not a generous word for Churchill in all the book's 900 pages, and few for anyone else. Everything in his life and work and every aspect of his character is cast in an unfavorable light.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purch…
The Ontario Election and After
The Ontario election of June 8, 1995 was disaster for the NDP (New Democratic Party) [Canada's social democratic party, founded in 1932 as an alliance of agrarian cooperative groups and labor. Adopting its current name in 1961, it is now primarily based on organized labor and urban left-liberals - the Editors.] and the Liberals, and has quickly shown itself to be a disaster for the people of Ontario. Even the Reform party (the right-wing party wh…
Monetizing The Debt
Some liberal and social democratic economists, notably the authors of the 1992 pamphlet, The Deficit Made Me Do It, and other members and supporters of the Committee for Monetary Reform, have proposed, as a way of relieving the deficit and lowering interest rates, to monetize part of the government debt.! By this they mean that the Bank of Canada should buy large amounts of treasury bills and other government bonds, instead of most of them being …
On the Question of Increasing Productivity; Harry Magdoff Responds; Economic Surplus and Class Struggle
Dear Harry: At the Socialist Scholar's Conference you attacked the concept of "productivity." As I remember, you had previously done so in an MR article. I read your position as saying that because productivity cannot be measured in many cases (or is it all cases?) the concept lacks reality.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this ar…

The Triumph of Capitalism
I read with sadness Robert Heilbroner's article, "The Triumph of Capitalism" in the January 23, 1989, New Yorker in which he espoused a new, major theme of right-wing ideology in this country. Many others have joined his triumphal celebration of capitalism and funeral possession for socialism. By joining this clique, Heilbroner has abandoned a lifetime of distinguished work; "The Triumph of Capitalism" is inconsistent with Heilbroner's own extens…
