Samuel Edward Konkin III publishes in Southern California the magazine ``New Libertarian'' and is coordinator of the Movement of the Libertarian Left. He happens to be on the Editorial Advisory Committee of the Journal for Historical Review and a notable (in volume of submissions, I guess) contributor to that kind of literature. Interestingly enough, the short biographical note appearing in the JHR mentions ``when not involved in left-libertarian publishing, the author finds time to engage in science-fiction.'' Best self-characterisation of historical revisionism I have seen to date! Another member of their Editorial Advisory Committee was the late Percy L. Greaves Jr., identified as ``Libertarian economist'' (and elsewhere in their pages merely as ``free market economist.'') Remember that Lewis Brandon, the founder and editor of JHR for several years, is none other than William David McCalden, British neo-fascist. And note the misrepresentation of W. Staeglich (yet another member of their Editorial Advisory Committee) as "Dr. Jur. (ret)." For he was stripped of his doctorate of Law after having been forced into early retirement.

Thank you for posting this. As a libertarian and a Jew, I found it most disturbing. --Barry -- Barry Fagin @ University of California, Berkeley
