By John Peterson "Marx was right!" For Marxists, this is not a particularly profound revelation. We have long known that the German revolutionary's analysis of capitalism was as fundamentally sound as the capitalist system itself is fundamentally unsound. But let's face it: for decades, we've been in a small minority, fighting against the stream and against the odds. After spending a long time in the "wilderness," that is beginning to change. The fact that the more serious capitalist economists are forced to admit the correctness of ideas they once ridiculed is an important symptom of a transformation in public consciousness./(Editorial for Socialist Appeal USA Issue 65/) | By Alan Woods On Monday, 14 November 2011 I happened to open the Evening Standard and saw a short item that was tucked away in the inner pages so that few people will have noticed it. It begins with the surprising affirmation: "Revolution is in the air at top Catholic independent school St Benedict's, Ealing." | | | | ESPAÑOL | | By Gabriel Atilio Reproducimos aquí la versión íntegra del artículo del camarada Gabriel Atilio acerca de los orígenes del movimiento socialista en la República Dominicana.
