Its purpose, obviously, is to add a significant bib Iiog raph ical resource. But more important, it offers itself as a tool that we think can be of great assistance in the further production of Marxist theoretical work. In the world of books and magazines indexes are almost universally a taken-for-granted commodity. Normally produced by nameless drudges and viewed as purely mechanical adjuncts, they are rarely given critical attention. Yet, as all librarians, scholarly researchers and bibliophiles know, they can, and often do, serve an extremely importation function. They also can be, and often are, exasperatingly inadequate. How often have you gone to an index and found, not what you were looking for, but frustration? A good deal of time and thought have gone into trying to make this index a satisfactory -- we hope even an outstanding -- work of its kind. This has required not only a complete and accurate listing of the contents of the 25 volumes covered (comprising 588 articles, review articles and communications, plus 1024 book reviews), but a measure of imagination and ingenuity as well. The highest test of an index is: how adequately -- and in how many different ways -- is it useful to the researcher? A good index is of course a place where one can easily find what one is looking for. But it should also be a place where the looker is stimulated, where interesting new connections are suggested, where new avenues of exploration are opened up. A major requirement in this regard is a full (but not excessively full) subject index, buttressed by a helpful V vi SCIENCE & SOCIETY pattern of cross-references. We trust that in devising our own form of these elements of index machinery we have been creative, logical and not too cumbersome. We leave it to the reader to judge. In the last analysis the value of this book is in the substance of what it has indexed. It is our conviction that the 25 volumes of Science & Society included here (as well as the earlier 25 volumes) contain an unusually rich lode of scholarship. As an interdisciplinary journal S & S has had contributions covering a wide variety of subjects, and our methodological approaches are equally varied philosophical, historical, empirical, analytical. And our chief distinction is that what we print is written, for the most part, from a Marxist perspective broadly defined. Some of the work in our pages has, inevitably, proved to be ephemeral. But a remarkably large amount has remained fresh, vital and relevant. A considerable number of our articles are the fruit of original research, often from primary sources. Many are thoughtful syntheses, bringing together the work of diverse scholars and providing useful summaries. A few are path-breaking contributions of a very high order. ( For a detailed historical account, see my article, "Fifty Yea rs of Science & Society," Vol. 50, No. 3, Fall 1986.) I am very happy to give major credit for the production of this Index to David Laibman, a leading member of our Editorial Board. He conceived its format and organization (fully explained below); he mobilized the participation of the other editors; he spent untold hours at his computer putting all the pieces together; and he shepherded the project through the printing stage. Thanks also go to Lisa M. Lighter, who provided invaluable technical assistance. DAVID GOLDWAY HOW TO USE THIS INDEX The core of the / ndex 1s Pa rt I, which ts a comprehensive and consecutively numbered listing of the contents of the 25 Volumes (from Volume 26/1962 through Volume 50/1986). Contents are organized alphabetically, by the authors' surnames. Part IA contains articles (identified INDEX, VOLS. 26-50 vii by the code letter A); communications (C); and review articles (E). A sample entry is: 125. Elkins, W. F.: Marcus Garvey, the Negro World, and the British West Indies, 1919-1920. (A) 36:1(1972), 63-77. The item numbered 125 contains, in this order: name of author; title of item; classification of item (A, article); and reference data (Volume 36, No. 1; year of publication, 1972; pages 63-77). Items in this section are numbered 1 through 588. Index users should note that in 1973 the practice was adopted of dating the fourth issue in a given volume in both the given calendar year and the subsequent one; thus Volume 37, No. 4 is dated 1973/74. Part I B contains book reviews, alphabetized by reviewer and numbered 1001 through 2024. Four-digit numbers are thus reserved for book reviews. Reference data are given in the same format as in Part IA. Signed book notes have been included as book reviews; unsigned book notes have not been included. Part 11 is an alphabetical listing of books reviewed in Volumes 26 through 50, alphabetized by the author of the book. Reference data are in the usual format. Books discussed in review articles have been included here as well as those which were the subjects of formal book reviews, except in the case of certain review essays which covered so many books that their listing would have been impractical. The indexing function is provided by Part 111, the Subject Index. Here the entries are followed by numbers which refer to the items in Parts IA and I B. In creating the subject-index categories, we have tried to be guided by the obvious general criterion: if the researcher were to find this article, or this review, useful, under what heading(s) would she/he search for it? We have sought to be sensitive to the different contexts (empirical; theoretical; topical; geographical; etc.) in which a given article may be of interest. An article on development and underdevelopment in Latin America, for example, might be given references for Latin America; Developing countries, Latin America; Historical materialism, and third-world; Imperialism, and Latin America. We have used cross-references (e.g., viii SCIENCE & SOCIETY Transformation problem -- see Value) wherever the possible multiplicity of categories may not be obvious; of course, we cannot suppose that we have anticipated all of the needs of researchers or eliminated all necessity for random search. Names of individuals and place names have been included in the subject index only when the item referred to 1s centrally concerned with that individual or place. D.L. Part I A.

  • Weather Underground Rises from the Ashes: They're Baack!
    Weather Underground Rises from the Ashes: They're Baack! I attended part of a January 20, 2006, "day workshop of interventions" — aka "a day of dialogic interventions" — at Columbia University on "Radical Politics and the Ethics of Life."[1] The event aimed "to stage a series of encounters . to bring to light . the political aporias [sic] erected by the praxis of urban guerrilla groups" in Europe and the United States from the 1960s to the 80s.[2] Hosted by Columbia's Anthropology Department, workshop speakers included veterans and leaders of the Weather Underground Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers, historian Jeremy Varon, poststructuralist theorist Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak and a dozen others. The panel I sat through was just awful.[3] Veterans of Weather (as well as some fans) seem to be on a drive to rehabilitate, cleanse, and perhaps revive it — not necessarily as a new organization, but rather as an ideological component of present and future movements. There have been signs of such a sanitization and romanticization for some time. A landmark in this rehabilitation is Bill Ayers, Fugitive Days: A Memoir (Beacon Press 2001; Penguin Books 2003). This is a dubious account, full of anachronisms, inaccuracies, unacknowledged borrowings from unnamed sources (such as the documentary, Atomic Cafe, 17-19), adding up to an attempt to cover over the fact that Ayers was there only for a part of the things he describes in a volume that nonetheless presents itself as a memoir. It's also faux literary and soft core ("warm and wet and welcoming"(68)), "ruby mouth"(38), "she felt warm and moist"(81)), full of archaic sexism, littered with boasts of Ayers's sexual achievements, utterly untouched by feminism.

"INSTINCTS" AND THE "FORCES OF PRODUCTION": The Freud-Marx Debates in Eastern and Central Europe* Dr. Ferenc Eros Institute of Psychology, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest In his essay "Psychology and Art Today", the British-American poet Wystan Hugh Auden writes: Both Freud and Marx start from the failures of civiliza tion, one from the poof, one from the ill. Both see human behavior determined, not consciously, but by instinctive needs, hunger and love. Both desire a world where rational choice and self-determination are possible. The difference between them is the inev itable difference between the man who studies crowds in the street, and the man who sees the patient... in the consulting room- Marx sees the direction of the relations between the outer and inner world from without inwards. Freud vice-versa.... The socialist accuses the psychologist of caving in to the status quo, trying to adapt the neurotic to the system, thus depriving him of a potential revolutionary; the psychologist retorts that the socialist is trying to lift himself by his own boot tags, that he fails to understand himself or the fact that lust for money is only one form of the lust for power; and so that after he has won his power by revolution he will recreate the same conditions.

  • Bernardine Dohrn
    Bernardine Dorhn: Never the Good Girl, Not Then, not Now: An Interview By Jonah Raskin Who doesn’t have a reaction to the name and the reputation of Bernadine Dohrn? Is there anyone over the age of 60 who doesn’t remember her role at the outrageous Days of Rage demonstrations, her picture on FBI “wanted posters,” or her dramatic surrender to law enforcement officials in Chicago after a decade as a fugitive? To former members of SDS, anti-war activists, Yippies, Black Panthers, White Panthers, women’s liberationists, along with students and scholars of Weatherman and the Weather Underground, she probably needs no introduction. Sam Green featured her in his award-winning 2002 film, The Weather Underground. Todd Gitlin added to her iconic stature in his benchmark cultural history, The Sixties, though he was never on her side of the ideological splits or she on his. Dozens of books about the long decade of defiance have documented and mythologized Dohrn’s role as an American radical. Of course, her flamboyant husband and long-time partner, Bill Ayers, has been at her side for decades, aiding and abetting her much of the time, and adding to her legendary renown and notoriety. Born in 1942, and a diligent student at the University of Chicago, she attended law school there and in the late 1960s “stepped out of the role of the good girl," as she once put it. She has never really stepped back into it again, though she’s been a wife, a mother, and a professional woman for more years than she was a street fighting woman.

  • 1 After Slavery & Reconstruction: the Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliogr
    After Slavery & Reconstruction: The Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell (2020) Jacob Lawrence, Library, 1966 Apologia— Several exceptions notwithstanding (e.g., some titles treating the Reconstruction Era), this bibliography begins, roughly, with the twentieth century. I have not attempted to comprehensively cover works of nonfiction or the arts generally but, once more, I have made— and this time, a fair number of—exceptions by way of providing a taste of the requisite material. So, apart from the constraints of most of my other bibliographies: books, in English, these particular constraints are intended to keep the bibliography to a fairly modest length (around one hundred pages). This compilation is far from exhaustive, although it endeavors to be representative of the available literature, whatever the influence of my idiosyncratic beliefs and 1 preferences. I trust the diligent researcher will find titles on particular topics or subject areas by browsing carefully through the list. I welcome notice of titles by way of remedying any deficiencies. Finally, I have a separate bibliography on slavery, although its scope is well beyond U.S. history. * Or, if you prefer, “self-fulfillment and human flourishing (eudaimonia).” I’m not here interested in the question of philosophical and psychological differences between these concepts (i.e., self- realization and eudaimonia) and the existing and possible conceptions thereof, but more simply and broadly in their indispensable significance in reference to human nature and the pivotal metaphysical and moral purposes they serve in our critical and evaluative exercises (e.g., and after Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, in employing criteria derived from the notion of ‘human capabilities and functionings’) as part of our individual and collective historical quest for “the Good.” However, I might note that all of these concepts assume a capacity for self- determination.

Re-evaluating Syndicalist Opposition to the First World War Abstract It has been argued that support for the First World War by the important French syndicalist organisation, the Confédération Générale du Travail (CGT) has tended to obscure the fact that other national syndicalist organisations remained faithful to their professed workers’ internationalism: on this basis syndicalists beyond France, more than any other ideological persuasion within the organised trade union movement in immediate pre-war and wartime Europe, can be seen to have constituted an authentic movement of opposition to the war in their refusal to subordinate class interests to those of the state, to endorse policies of ‘defencism’ of the ‘national interest’ and to abandon the rhetoric of class conflict. This article, which attempts to contribute to a much neglected comparative historiography of the international syndicalist movement, re-evaluates the syndicalist response across a broad geographical field of canvas (embracing France, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Britain and America) to reveal a rather more nuanced, ambiguous and uneven picture.

  • More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970
    More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970 (A Dissertation submitted in requirement for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy, The University of Nottingham, October 2009) Clare Russell 1 Abstract The first ―citizenship school‖ (a literacy class that taught adults to read and write in order that they could register to vote) was established by Highlander Folk School of Monteagle, Tennessee on Johns Island, South Carolina in 1957. Within three years, the schools were extended across the neighboring Sea Islands, to mainland Charleston and to Savannah, Georgia. In 1961, after Highlander faced legal challenges to its future, it transferred the schools to the fledgling Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), who extended the program across the South. Historians have made far-reaching claims for the successes and benefits of the schools. For example, they claim that they recruited inexperienced but committed people and raised them to the status of community leaders; that they encouraged civic cooperation and political activism and formed the ―foundation on which the civil rights movement‖ was built and they argue that the schools were an unprecedented opportunity for women to develop as activists and as leaders. Yet, they base these claims on certain myths about the schools: that the first teacher Bernice Robinson was an inexperienced and uneducated teacher, that her class was a blueprint for similar ones and that Highlander bequeathed its educational philosophy to the SCLC program. They make claims about female participation without analyzing the gender composition of classes. This dissertation challenges these assumptions by comparing and contrasting programs established in Lowcountry South Carolina and in Savannah.
