TRANSITIONS IN LATIN AMERICA AND IN POLAND AND SYRIA Editor: Paul Zarembka, SUNY at Buffalo
Poland has led the anti-Soviet transition into a pro-market realignment, a realignment of this country which is particularly oriented toward the United States. Syria, on the other hand and even as it moves into a pro-market orientation, is subject to particular U.S. hostility. Both cases are analyzed in Part II, with the chapter on Poland having considerably broader applicability. Also included here is the continued deeper penetration of capitalist relations within the United States, represented by analysis of the transition of its medical sector. For almost a century, stages of capitalism has been an important theme within Marxism. The theme is analyzed at the beginning of Part III, and connects to the more empirical work represented by the prior six chapters. The volume concludes with translation from Japanese of an important critique of the classical political economy of Adam Smith and David Ricardo, who, in a certain sense, were the leading proponents, historically, of the market, of capitalism. Most poignantly, this chapter argues that Ricardian value theory opens the door to a vulgar system of economic thought. at some libraries under ScienceDirect subscription). |

This RESEARCH annual is founded on analyzing society in a manner consistent with classical Marxism. International in scope, the annual volumes deal primarily with economic and political issues and the unity between them. Both theoretical and empirical works are included. While published papers must be appropriate for developing class analysis of society, they need not be explicitly Marxist. The RESEARCH can accept papers up to 50 pages in print (on occasion, even longer) and thus is appropriate for work which is not book length, yet is substantial. For submissions, please send your paper, double-spaced type with noting as endnotes followed by a reference list, to the editor either electronically or three copies to the postal address above. Usual practice is review by two competent persons, on a double-blind basis, within a relatively short period of time.
"Collections like Research in Political Economy provide a forum for ...
serious radical scholarship so grotesquely absent from most mainstream
periodicals" -- Richard B. DuBoff, Monthly Review
"... has played a very positive role in developing the scientific Marxist
agenda for the last 25 years" -- Ajit Sinha, Science & Society
Marx's Value, Price, and Profit (Abridged): An Introduction to the Theory of Capitalism provides an introduction to substance of his argument. The Marx-Engels Library has provided the very useful service of on-line text of much of Marx's writings (including Capital, Volume 1)
and including searching of its entire on-line library, and also including other Marxist writers.
Biographies and texts of writings of some 100 major figures in the history of economic/social thought, including Marx, Engels, Lenin, Luxemburg and many writers who were the focus of Marx's attention, are provided on the Akamac Web Site. An extensive Lenin on-line library is available at the V.I. Lenin Library. A modern, popular presentation of issues surrounding Marx for the 21st century is available in the near hundred-page Special Issue "La pensée de Marx", Le Nouvel Observateur, October/November 2003. Links closely related to the R.P.E. include the "Monthly Review", founded in 1948 as an independent socialist magazine (with a lead article by Albert Einstein) and including a book press, and Union for Radical Political Economics, founded in 1968 to support interest in radical analysis of political and economic topics and publishing the "Review of Radical Political Economy". In London, we point to the Conference of Socialist Economists, a membership organisation founded in 1970, and its journal "Capital and Class", published three times a year since 1977, and, in Paris, to the French review "Actuel Marx" including its links, some of which are in English. LaborNet, through computer communications, supports the "guarantees of human rights and economic justice for workers". That site is mainly U.S. focused, but there is an internationally-oriented site LabourStart.
