Abstract

THE ARTICLE by Franz Marek - "The Structure of the Stalin Mythos" appearing in the June-July issue of the ALR cannot be ignored by any Marxist. Its great value lies in the fact, that it provokes thought and re-appraisal of the main issue which divides marxists today, internationally and within many countries including our own. Nor does it lose stature because of the fact that the writer includes himself in the army of marxists who for some decades, accepted distortions for facts.
