A New Road for Student Socialism

The following article grew out of practical experience. This was mainly gained in helping to build a modest socialist club at a large urban university. To be sure, the club as it has actually taken shape is by no means exactly like the ideal discussed below. I have tried to benefit from our failures as well as from our successes, and one of my purposes in writing this article is to help others who may be thinking along similar lines to avoid the mistakes and false starts and wasted time which our effort has entailed. I will be well satisfied if the article serves in some measure as a guide to action as well as a stimulus to discussion.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 article at the Monthly Review website
