And certainly no enemy of socialism. Back in the early 1980s, when Monthly
Review had a fire in its office, Galbraith signed an emergency fundraising
letter for them. Back in the 1970s, he convinced the dean of UMass that it
was OK to hire a bunch of Marxists in the econ department. And the new MR
has a 50th anniversary greeting from JKG. Plus he gave me a blurb, so he
must be all right!
