What's new at In Defence of Marxism 
(http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~socappeal/IDOM.html)

- A Socialist Alternative to the European Union 
(http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~socappeal/socialisteurope.html)
This long document by Alan Woods provides a comprehensive answer to many 
key questions for the European labour movement. What is Maastricht? Why 
are they introducing all these cuts? Would it be better without 
Maastricht? Will it succeed? and most important of all, how do we fight 
it and what is our alternative. June 1997

- Russia in turmoil, an eyetwitness report 
(http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~socappeal/russiaeye.html)
An analysis of the current situation in Russia, based on Alan Woods' 
discussions with trade unionists, left wingers, Communist Party members, 
and others during his recent trip to Russia. A first hand account of the 
debates in the Russian left and the beginning of the recovery of the 
labour movement. June 1, 1997 (published in the June edition of Socialist 
Appeal)

- Mobutu overthrown, what next for the new Congo 
(http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/~socappeal/Zaire.html)
On May 17 the forces of the Alliance of Democratic Forces for the 
Liberation of Congo-Zaire (ADFL) took Zaire's capital Kinshasa and 
changed the name of the country to Democratic Republic of Congo putting 
an end to 31 years of dictatorship by Mobutu Sese Seko. This article 
analyses the different forces behind the conflict and outlines a 
socialist perspective for the masses of the Central Africa region. June 
1997 (published in the June edition of Socialist Appeal)

- Vonk (http://www.ping.be/~pin13707/vonk.htm)
We have added a link to the Web site of Vonk, the Marxist paper in the 
trade union and socialist movement in Belgium. The movement of the 
Renault workers, of the Clabecq steel workers, the White March, etc. show 
us that Belgium is a country in turmoil, to get a Marxist analysis of 
what is happening there, check this site (in Flemish)
