Michael Lebowitz's 'The Socialist Imperative': 'A must-read for
revolutionaries' <http://links.org.au/node/4526>
July 28, 2015 – /Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal/ --
Those who open Michael Lebowitz's new book, /The Socialist Imperative,/
will find something far different and refreshing than the old apologetic

as that of the original Rip Van Winkle after he dozed right through the
American War of Independence. “Am I hallucinating?”, he might ask,
struggling to find the right answer to questions like:

Puerto Rico: Washington's 'Greece' -- Party of the Working People
fights austerity <http://links.org.au/node/4522>
By *Rafael Bernabe*
July 2015 -- The Partido del Pueblo Trabajador—the Party of the Working
People (PPT)—is a political project of the Puerto Rican left addressed
to working people in the context of the island’s deep economic crisis.

Links seeks to promote the international exchange of information,
experience of struggle, theoretical analysis and views of political
strategy and tactics within the international left. It is a forum for
open and constructive dialogue between active socialists coming from
different political traditions. It seeks to bring together those in the
international left who are opposed to neoliberal economic and social
policies. It aims to promote the renewal of the socialist movement in
the wake of the collapse of the bureaucratic model of "actually existing
socialism" in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.
