Dear all, The sad news about Paul M. Sweezy have also reached the shores of Norway. I have been asked to write an obituary for the left wing daily paper in Norway, "Class Struggle" (7000 copies). Is there anyone on the list that have links to more extensive - *online* biographies of Sweezy than the one from NYT. I also would like some short - positive or negative appreciations of his work. Not only his economics, but on his relation to Soviet Russia, China, Cuba, role in US left-wing politics besides his enormous contribution in keeping MR alive and kicking. I have studied Theories of Cap. Dev. and Monopoly Capital, but it is years ago. I also read - years ago - comments from Mandel, Matick etc. But there must be more recent analysis, made in light of the experiences with capitalism in the decades that have passed since the publication of Monopoly Capital. I tried Google, but was drowned in not so relevant (but often interesting material). All hints are welcome. Regards Anders Ekeland Norway
