"This penetrating and challenging selection of commentaries demonstrates that socialist thought is alive and well. Ollman's critique of the market and Schweickart's rebuttal of ultra-left simplicities are especially gratifying."The Debate Among Socialists Edited by Bertell Ollman Michael Parenti, author of Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism "This book exemplifies some important strengths, renewals, and new departures now proliferating within the socialist theoretical tradition as it digests and grows beyond the collapse of the Soviet experiment. The authors' creative debate not only demonstrates the revived liveliness of the socialist tradition; it also offers very concrete, provocative insights into the recent development successes of China, the anti-capitalist potentials of cooperatives, and many other issues of current interest worldwide." Richard D. Wolff, Professor of Economics, University of Massachusetts "A useful and instructive book of diverging ideas on how best to design a democratic and humanistic socialism. In addition to the issues debated with respect to socialism, Bertell Ollman offers a clear and penetrating analysis of the market under capitalism." Harry Magdoff, co-editor,
