Through what stage are we passing?
Article Abstract:
The capitalist power is directly and successfully challenged by revolutionary socialism and if the struggle for socialist emancipation, a naive and utopian dream has to be avoided, the question arises regarding the factors that are absent from the existing world set-up from the first half of the 20th century. The first half of the 20th century was rich in revolutionary experience, as the restabilisation of social and political order following World War II remained pristine in its resistance to revolutionary challenge

The triumph of capitalism in Russia and Eastern Europe and its western apologetics
Article Abstract:
A feeling of sadness arising when seeing the last ray of hope for socialism in Russia and elsewhere behind the western horizon, fading away in darkens is described in most of the transition literature as the return of capitalism with unaffected delight, which is a veritable triumphal procession. The apologetic literature retails the prevailing ideology, which is a blind, hard-and-fast confidence in market liberalism, combined with disgraceful cynicism towards the social misery in transition countries.

Socialism and Soviet lessons for education
Article Abstract:
Soviet progressive education during the 1920s failed due to cultural and ideological constraints. Culturally constructed expectations undermined the egalitarian goals of Soviet educational policy. Scarcity of funding and ideological hegemony resulted in the inegalitarian distribution of opportunity and resources. Similarly, the coercive nature of socialist mobilization and industrialization resulted in the bureaucratization of education.
