Re: [Marxism] The Millibands
== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == Ralph Miliband co-edited the Socialist Register with John Saville, not with Leo Panitch. I went through the Saville-Miliband correspondence in 2005 - it's a goldmine, because the two men were working together for three decades publishing all sorts of distinguished left-wing thinkers. They often wrote each other daily. There's some very funny stuff in their letters about the worries some of their more difficult contributors caused them: http://readingthemaps.blogspot.com/2008/04/for-christs-sake-let-us-have-something.html Saville died last year, and I wrote an obituary for him which discusses his relationship with Miliband: http://readingthemaps.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-did-lot-of-work-when-i-was-able.html Cheers Scott Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com

Ralph Miliband showed in theory that the Labour Party will always betray the working class, and his sons are demonstrating this in practice.

Among other things, he was co-editor of the annual 'Socilialist
Register' with Leo Panitch.
And author of many good books:

Re: [Marxism] The Millibands
== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == A good friend of mine was a personal friend of Ralph Milliband and got to know the boys as they grew up. It seems that one day they looked at the father and decided that he had achieved nothing as a militant communist. So they came in from the cold and now are an essential part of the Labour Party machine and the American Imperial imperative. Some achievement boys! Well done. Of course this is a terrible betrayal of all the father stood for, but as I always point out that aside from the psychological dimensions of such actions, and there would have been a very sublimated drive to a kind of patricide, the material benefits of betraying the father have been considerable. Quite simply because of the father the boys had something to sell and the Establishment was very willing to part with the 30 pieces of silver. regards Gary Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
