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

being a really old guy, I remember the golden days when people
nervously apologized for such shameless self-promotion because of the

his book.
For anyone on the list, let us know about your good work.

said, why don't you write something that could sell some books so we
[at MR] can support publishing
What are the economics of publishing for the US left?
In South Africa the minimum is about 700 softback copies, which isn't
easy here.

For most university presses, it's about a 1000 hardcover, which is
difficult because libraries have stopped buying everything that comes
