Marxist-Humanists this issue view the world we live in—the rule of capital and the revolts against it—and rethink the direction of News and Letters Committees. We invite you to read, think, and comment on our perspectives, which include:

  1. The crisis in Iraq and the two worlds in each country
  2. Renewal of freedom movements
    1. The U.S. Scene
    2. Challenges to global capital, from France to Latin America
  3. The philosophic-organizational challenge: what happens after?
    1. New stage of revolt or birth of a new epoch?
    2. China's Cultural Revolution, 40 years later
    3. The transcendence of value production
  4. Political-organizational-philosophic tasks
