Editorial Introduction To Louis Althusser's 'Letter To The Central Committee Of The Pcf, 18 March 1966', William S. Lewis
Editorial Introduction To Louis Althusser's 'Letter To The Central Committee Of The Pcf, 18 March 1966', William S. Lewis
William Lewis
As an accompaniment to the translation into English of Louis Althusser's 'Letter to the Central Committee of the PCF, March 18th, 1966', this note provides the historical and theoretical context necessary to understand Althusser's 'anti-humanist' interventions into French Communist Party policy decisions during the mid-1960s. Because nowhere else in Althusser's published writings do we see as clearly the political stakes involved in his philosophical project, nor the way in which this project evolved from a 'theoreticist' pursuit into a more practical one, the note also argues that the letter is of importance to Althusser scholars, to historians of Marxist thought, …

Radical Theatre Mobility: Unity Theatre, Uk, And The New Theatre, Australia, Cathy Brigden, Lisa Milner
Radical Theatre Mobility: Unity Theatre, Uk, And The New Theatre, Australia, Cathy Brigden, Lisa Milner
Dr Lisa Milner
For two radical theatres formed in the 1930s, taking performances to their audiences was an important dimension of commitment to working-class politics and civic engagement. Separated by distance but joined ideologically, the New Theatre in Australia and Unity Theatre in the United Kingdom engaged in what they described as ‘mobile work’, as well as being ‘stage curtain’ companies. Based on archival research and drawing on the mobility literature, in this article Cathy Brigden and Lisa Milner examine the rationale for mobile work, the range of spaces that were used both indoor (workplaces, halls, private homes) and outdoor (parks, street corners …

The Historical Background Of The Communist Manifesto, George R. Boyer
The Historical Background Of The Communist Manifesto, George R. Boyer
George R. Boyer
[Excerpt] The Manifesto of the Communist Party, published 150 years ago in London in February 1848, is one of the most influential and widely-read documents of the past two centuries. The historian A. J. P. Taylor (1967, p. 7) has called it a "holy book," and contends that because of it, "everyone thinks differently about politics and society." And yet, despite its enormous influence in the 20th century, the Manifesto is very much a period piece, a document of what was called the "hungry" 1840s. It is hard to imagine it being written in any other decade of the 19th …

Oscar Creydt: Una Biografía, Robert Andrew Nickson
Robert Andrew Nickson
Hoy en día muy pocos paraguayos, sobre todo los jóvenes, han escuchado hablar de Oscar Adalberto Federico Creydt – un apellido muy poco ‘paraguayo’. Sin embargo, durante cuatro décadas del siglo veinte – entre 1925 hasta 1965 – fue una figura prominente de la política paraguaya. Esto pasó a pesar de que él nunca llegó a ocupar cargo político en ninguna administración y a pesar de que pasó la segunda mitad de su vida – cuarenta años - casi sin pisar tierra paraguaya. Entonces, cómo fue posible? La explicación se debe a que Oscar Creydt fue el principal dirigente del …
