Death to the Social Fascists!

[Justin Schwartz]

I did. It's pretty interesting. Mainly a soc dem perspectives, sort of a 
Nathanish argument in the context of real soc dem parties rather than the 
Dems, of course; saying, basically, that they have sold out or given up the 
ideals of classical socialism for various predictable and inevitable 
reasons, described in detail in the book; but this is all the socialist 
movement you got, so live with it. I find this argument rather more 
attractive than the idea that an expressly capitalist party is all the 
socialism you got. The detail of the book is excellent, particularly for 
learning about countries other than the big ones (England, France, Germany, 
Russia). --jks
