A novel, super concept
Article Abstract:
Bookshops in the United Kingdom and America are not as good as they were in the 1960's and 1970's, because most shops are now part of a chain and do not stock an individual range of books other than their set stock which are often best sellers and other commercially viable titles. Superstore bookshops are newly available in the United States, however, and can offer a much greater variety and quality alternative because they can offer approximately 100,000 titles under one roof.

A vision of poetry in motion
Article Abstract:
It is possible to argue that Marxism is still relevant for modern society. Indeed, it can be stated that it is impossible to not continue to ask Marxian questions and to not reaffirm socialist hopes and ideals. Without Marxian questions, it is not possible to make critical sense of history. History gives a strong example of working people's commitments and achievements, and for this reason it is vital to support workers' struggles and the labour movement.
