Introduction to Traverso's ''Critique of Modern Barbarism''
13 December 2019We publish here the introduction to our 65th notebook, a collection of essays by Enzo Traverso on ''fascism, anti-Semitism and the use of history''.
A video message from Gregor Benton at the launch of ''Memoirs of a Critical Communist. Towards a history of the Fourth International''. Benton reflects on Livio Maitan, and what Maitan's work meant for him.
Llivio Maitan's Memoirs of a Critical Communist tells the life of revolutionary communist in the second half of the 20th century. From his early commitment to communism under fascism in Italy, Livio chose to be 'against the current' by rejecting both Stalinism and social democracy, and charted a curse towards democratic and revolutionary Marxism.
