Refuting USAID’s seemingly charitable concern for the cultivation of morally upstanding crops, the authors provide a succinct but detailed history of the United States’ alliances with drug traffickers and paramilitaries and its contributions to Colombian state repression and the institutionalization of the cocaine industry. ]]> http://monthlyreview.org/press/news/cocaine-death-squads-reviewed-in-jacobin/feed/ 0 http://monthlyreview.org/press/news/the-rise-of-the-tea-party-reviewed-on-counterfire/ http://monthlyreview.org/press/news/the-rise-of-the-tea-party-reviewed-on-counterfire/#comments Thu, 24 May 2012 15:39:30 +0000 Monthly Review Press http://monthlyreview.org/press/?p=4401 http://monthlyreview.org/press/news/the-rise-of-the-tea-party-reviewed-on-counterfire/feed/ 0 http://monthlyreview.org/press/interviews/steve-brouwer-interviewed-by-nacla-video/ http://monthlyreview.org/press/interviews/steve-brouwer-interviewed-by-nacla-video/#comments Tue, 22 May 2012 14:50:14 +0000 Monthly Review Press http://monthlyreview.org/press/?p=4398 Revolutionary Doctors: How Venezuela and Cuba Are Changing the World’s Conception of Health Care, author Steve Brouwer highlights the revolutionary health care practiced by Venezuela and Cuba.

Documenting capitalist hell, Tully serves as a captivating Virgil as he guides readers through rubber's many layers.
