  1. Nice article

  2. HO CHI MINH QUAD

    I thought they’d renamed that…?

    I think it still is Ho Chi Minh Duncan… if not then its still nice to keep it in common parlance, one in the eye (sort of) for the Shah of Iran…!

  4. I’m sure he’s fuming.

    Guys, it’d be great if you can upload some audio/video recordings of the talks and discussions.

    Thanks for all your efforts in organising such a fine event.

    cheers.

    Both the Callinicos talk on imperialism and the debate on the economic crisis were recorded – we will make them available as soon as possible, so watch this space!
