Please excuse this off-topic comment, it relates to your earlier post on the left, and if I put it there I don’t know if the other responders will see it, and I think it may interest them, as well – hopefully – as you.
The current ish of the brit journal Radical Philosophy has an article on some aspects of the history of the British Left (i.e. that around the Communist Party and its Trot rivals). It considers recent books by the historians Eric Hobsbaum and John Saville, the literary critic and theorist Terry Eagleton, the sociologist Stuart Hall and also the remarkable three part series ‘The Lost World of British Communism’ in New Left Review Nos 154, 156 & 165 by Raphael Samuel.
I won’t go into my own view on it, just that it’s worth looking our for and reading. Try alternative bookstores and university libraries.
