Abstract

Under this head we propose from time to time to print materials bearing on the theoretical and practical problems facing American socialists. In this issue we present three articles: "Politics and the Proletariat," by a teacher of social science at a large university; "What Ails American Socialism," by George Woodard; and "Socialism is Constitutional," by George Olshausen. The first two are highly controversial and are intended to be so. We invite discussion from readers of the problems they raise, or of related problems which they do not specifically consider.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website.
