The important thing actually is to alert public opinion. This has been up
to people like John Bellamy Foster, who wrote "Vulnerable Planet" for
Monthly Review. We have been in some interesting conversations about
Gillot's book, by the way. There will be more on that.

What's the business of the law of value about? Your right-wing cult dumped
Marxism. Your analysis of the East Asian crisis doesn't even have a pinkish

Journal editorial.
