Sorry to have left you out. I should also count Grant Lee, unless he has already permanently relocated to PEN-l. Who else? Alex Lantsberg (who seldom posts). Chris Brooke (who hardly ever posts). On the strength of his favorable remark on Walter Benjamin, among other things, I'd also love to include Chris Kromm, but he has seldom posted lately. Perhaps, what I'm seeing here is the disappearance of not just Marxists but most interesting leftists from LBO-talk.

I might use the term historical materialist instead as it means the same thing as Marxism to me, but that's unfortunately two words, and it probably sounds like just a school of philosophy to most people (if they know what it means at all).

I've expansively interpreted Marxism, as most self-identified Marxists have already vanished from the list -- hence the subject of the thread. -- Yoshie
