When Insurrections Die - footnotes
1. This is a shorter,
entirely reconceived version of my preface to the selection of articles
from Bilan on Spain 1936-39, published in French in 1979 under the pen-name
Jean Barrot, and now out of print. Chapters of this preface have been translated
in English as Fascism
and Anti-Fascism by several publishers, for instance Unpopular Books.
It is available on the For
Communism website.
An earlier
version of "When Insurrections Die" is available at the Collective
Action Notes website.
