The Soviet Union: Socialist or Social-Imperialist? Part II: The Question Is Joined

In May 1983 a major conference was held in New York City focusing on the question "The Soviet Union: Socialist or Social-Imperialist?" It culminated in a face to face debate between major spokespersons for the opposing views. Speaking in support of the Soviet Union's socialist character was Albert Szymanski, author of Is the Red Flag Flying? and The Logic of Imperialism. Presenting the Maoist and Revolutionary Communist Party analysis was Raymond Lotta, editor of And Mao Makes Five and co-author of America in Decline. This volume includes the full text of their debate.
