Since 1964, the "Socialist Register" has brought together
leading writers on the left to investigate aspects of a common
theme. Telling the Truth: Socialist Register 2006 examines how
contemporary social and political debate is structured, how ideas
and ideologies come to inform policy making, research, education,
and our conceptions of truth more generally.
It also discusses the role of the state in intellectual life and
the media, and the role of think-tanks, foundations, political
parties and global institutions such as the World Bank in the
dissemination of knowledge and ideas. Such questions are not always
at the center of public debate, but are essential to establishing
freedom for critical thought and reflection, and for the formation
of a new generation of intellectuals.
Contributors include Terry Eagleton, Barbara Ehrenreich and
Frances Fox Piven, Doug Henwood, Robert McChesney, and Michael
Burawoy.
