The essays included in this volume are based on papers delivered at
the International Symposium on Varieties of Marxism, held at the
Van Leer Jerusalem Foundation on June 16-19,1974, and dedicated to
the memory of George Lichtheim. When the idea of such a symposium
was first raised, the organizers planned to have George Lichtheim
as one of the main speakers at the event. In our last and brief
meeting in London, I suggested this to him and Lichtheim gave his
consent to attend the symposium, though at that time no date was
yet fixed. His tragic death a few months later left a gap not only
in the program of the symposium but in Marxist studies generally;
it was felt that per haps one way of paying tribute to his
contribution to the study of a subject so near to his mind would be
to name the symposium in his memory and devote an introductory
paper to an attempt at an intel lectual portrait of George
Lichtheim as an historian of ideas. The volume as published
includes all papers delivered at the sym posium, with the excep,
tion of the papers of J. L. Talmon (Jerusalem) on 'Marxism and
Nationalism' and Gajo Petrovic (Zagreb) on 'Yugo slav Marxism'.
Appended is also a short obituary written by me on Lichtheim for
the journal Political Science published by the American Political
Science Association."
