Hi Louis,

Theodor *Bergmann* - now one of its editors - joined Sozialismus in the
late 80s. The magazine was started in the early 70s by an authors' collective.

My current affiliation to it does not go beyond doing some translations now
and then.

>From its beginnings one of its political and theoretical goals has been to
encourage the international debate by translating and reprinting numerous
articles and interviews. In this context some articles which first appeared
in Monthly Review have been reprinted in the German language by Sozialismus
within the last year. Inversely this has not been the case yet - as far as
I know.

Hence Lieber's "Review on the Goldhagen-Debate" could still be a good
start. What do you think of this? Wednesday next?

Hinrich
