Issue before this had Adam Schatz, who has written for the neo-Schactmanite journal New Politics, review the S. Courtois, "Black Book of Communism," tome, and Scott McLemee, who has written for In These Times and the N.Y. Times Book Review, and has published on C.L.R. James is a contributing editor I believe.
