                  OBITUARY FOR A HOLOCAUST RESEARCHER
     Dr. Judith S. Kestenberg, 88; Studied Survivors of Holocaust

"Dr. Judith Silberpfennig Kestenberg, a psychoanalyst specializing in

their children, died Saturday at her home in Sands Point, N.Y. She was
88. ..." -- Wolfgang Saxon (New York Times), 21 Jan 99 <story684.txt>

                       "LEFT-GREEN PERSPECTIVES"

"Left Green Perspectives is the newsletter of the Social Ecology
Project in Burlington, Vermont. Founded in 1986 as Green Perspectives,
this theoretical newsletter dedicated to exploring left-libertarian
issues and movements in North America and Europe. Its particular focus
is on the new politics of libertarian municipalism, as developed by
Murray Bookchin."

[Bookchin's supporters have published top-rate material documenting
fascist components of the environmental movement. You might want to
check "'Ecology' and the Modernization of Fascism in the German Ultra-
right," by Janet Biehl, 1995 <afdoc004.txt>, "Fascist Ecology: The
'Green Wing' of the Nazi Party and its Historical Antecedents," by
Peter Staudenmaier, 1995 <afdoc005.txt>, and "Militia Fever: The
Fallacy of 'Neither Left nor Right'," by Janet Biehl, Green
Perspectives, A Social Ecology Publication, #26, Apr 96 <afdoc024.txt>.
All are at: <ftp://ftp.nyct.net/pub/users/tallpaul/docs/anti-fa/>.

[The Bookchinite material is worth a look even if you, as I, do not
agree with their particular theories in other areas. The tendency is
almost unique in the Green movement for their honesty and historical
research about fascism. Too often, Greens deny that there is *any*
fascist aspect in environmentalism. Biehl, especially, is to be
commended for her rejection of this notion and detailed research that
benefits the broad, pluralistic anti-fascist struggle. --  tallpaul]

"Co-edited by Bookchin and Janet Biehl, the periodical has also
published critical analyses of mystical, antihumanist, and
postmodernist trends in the ecology movement and in contemporary
culture at large, including the reemergence of ultraright and fascist
ideologies and groups in Germany, Russia, England, and the United
States. Almost alone among North American periodicals, it has
critically traced the retreat of the German Greens into social
democracy.

"Green Perspectives presented translations of articles from
libertarian, ecological, and radical left European periodicals like
Schwarzer Faden, Direkte Aktion, koLinX, and Radici, as well as
interviews with leading left-ecological European radicals.
Additionally, it features ongoing reports on social ecology activities
around the world, and reviews of books of significant interest.

"In 1998 the editors renamed the periodical Left Green Perspectives.
'The word green has been cheapened today,' the editors explained, 'so
much so that it is not only a liberal parliamentary description but
part of the language of corporations. We earnestly believe that a
revolutionary Left has to come into existence and we are dedicated to
fostering its development'."
