The first people killed, exterminated by the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s were the disabled, by physicians. As a disabled woman, and a Jew, I'd have been a two-fer. Why is this pertinent? History and NOW: see NotDeadYe...

I have a gret deal of difficulty in seeing how we can bring democracy to our own dollarocracy. This is one of the more chauvinist pieces I've seen on a left site regarding Islam and the 1.2 billion people who follow it. Not capable of democrac...

Very well-thought out piece. I think the implications for union strategies are very important to keep in mind. I'd be curious to know 1) what practical steps should be taken now to advance the syndicalist idea and 2) what your thou...

And, by the way, I don't agree either with the idea that Chomsky is dour and devoid of humour. He may not be the most humorous person in the world (I am sure he is not even trying to be that), but his writings and speeches have more and ...

Frankly speaking, I do not know much about Aaron Swartz as a person, so I am not sure what to make of this 'tribute'. What I do know is that the matter about JSTOR and MIT and the related prosecution is a pariticulary grotesque symptom of ...

Sure, the gap between the commands/policy from the top and situation on the ground; the ambiguous nature of orders; the need of the presidents to win wars, and the fear and youth of American soldiers were factors that partially explain the genocid...
