being a really old guy, I remember the golden days when people nervously apologized for such shameless self-promotion because of the still-ongoing effort to keep the web non-commercial. Of course, nowadays almost all of the web is nothing but commercial and no-one should even think of apologizing. The good news is that Marty's book looks very interesting and worthwhile.

I just wanted to alert those interested in issues related to Korea, East Asia, Marxism, and development theory --to a recently published book called Marxist Perspectives on South Korea in the Global Economy. It is edited by Martin Hart-Landsberg, Seongjin Jeong, and Richard Westra, and published by Ashgate. The long and short of it is: This volume brings together work by international scholars (the majority of whom are Korean) to provide a unique analysis of the past, present and possible future trajectory of Korea's political economy from a distinctly Marxist perspective. The volume differentiates the Marxian approach to the political economy of Korean development from the Keynesian, social democratic approach that currently dominates the critical literature. In doing so the volume provides a unique view of the development of the South Korean Economy.
