The editors of the Encyclopedia of Marxism have been working hard for
several
months to research and upload 200 new words into the Encyclopedia. What we
list
below are thirteen events that have been thoroughly edited and checked. We
strongly encourage readers to take advantage of the power of the internet to
help us in this process. Voice your criticism, help in research, be
critical, be
thorough. Add new terms and become an editor or a writer for the
Encyclopedia.
We want people to join who are serious about research, who are patient in
uncovering the details of history, who are strongly non-sectarian, and who
posses an open-minded and growing understanding of the dialectics. Send a
mail
to the editors to join the effort!

Several more articles have been added to the Marx/Engels 1850s archive
including
"Po and Rhine a pamphlet published anonymously by Engels in order to create
a
debate about Germany's military/defence strategy and "Mountain Warfare Past
and
Present" which is probably out of date, but will be of interest to some of
our
readers we're sure. Also an unpublished pamphlet by Marx "Quid Pro Quo" and
one
against Bruno Bauer in connection with his theory of Russia as the rising
imperialist power and a sarcastic letter to The Times and an unpublished 9th
chapter for "Revolutionary Spain".

We mourn the loss of Stephen Jay Gould along with his progressive colleagues
and
many fans. In our efforts to add material related to Marxism and natural
science, we have started an archive for the writings of another great
science
essayist who had a passionate and fully-engaged romance with knowledge,
scholarship and teaching, John Burdon Sanderson Haldane (1892-1964). It
opens
with a variety of his work, including:

Human Biology and Politics, 1934
Why I am a Materialist, 1940
The Laws of Nature, 1941

24 May, 2002:
In a drawn-out process, Volume 2 of A. S. Makarenko's The Road to Life (An
Epic
of Education) has been completed. This tome is an absorbing chronicle of
Makarenko's years as director of the Gorky Labour Colony, a compound for
juvenile delinquents in the rural Ukraine in the 1920's. Makarenko, through
his
experience, advanced a theory of the children's collective that fused
knowledge
given by the teacher while simultaneously developing independence and
individual
experience of the child.
