We are EXTREMELY excited to announce the completion of Part 2 of the Vietnamese curriculum we have been translating:

Historical Materialism

Print copies of the book are available NOW for preorder, and the first one thousand copies will be printed as a special Vanguard Edition with a limited edition cover and fronticepiece.

Click here to preorder now!

The introduction is a very important article about Ho Chi MInh's internationalism and support of black revolutionaries written by none other than Dr. Gerald Horne and Anthony Ballas. The appendices also include about 30 pages of primary sources and supplementary material related to self-critique and historical development of socialism in Vietnam.

We have also begun raising funds for the translation and annotation of Part 3: Political Economy. Please consider supporting our fundraiser at this link so we can make the ebook available for free under Creative Commons license. We anticipate that this will take between two and three years of work so your support is much needed and much appreciated.

Speaking of the ebook: as with Part 1, we will be making Part 2 of the ebook available for free as soon as we have finished laying out the PDF and epub versions. We will announce here as soon as the ebook becomes available.

We are so very excited to make this book available to all of you and we can't wait to get started on Part 3! Thanks to everyone for your patience and support throughout this endeavor, and let us know if you have any questions about the book!
