The Communist Party, however, attacked Monthly Review in several articles, the first of which declared Sweezy and Huberman "un-Marxist and anti-Marxist." Alexander Bittelman, "Where is the 'Monthly Review' Going?" Political Affairs 30 (May 1951): 34-53; "The Ideological Struggle on the American Left," editorial, Political Affairs 42 (August 1963): 1-18; and Hyman Lumer, "Monopoly Capital: The Baran-Sweezy Model," Political Affairs 46 (February 1967): 11-25. See also Leo Huberman and Paul Sweezy, "Reply to Mr. Bittelman," and Paul Sweezy, "Certain Aspects of American Capitalism," Monthly Review 3 (November 1951): 212-227. For indication of the editors' views about the left in 1949, see Paul Sweezy, interview by Aleine Austin, 19 January 1982, Oral History of the American Left. http://user.chollian.net/~marishin/eco/hmr.html http://www.monthlyreview.org/599phelp.htm
