The debate is heating up! Do the demands of the women's movement have any value? What demands should we adopt on violence against women? How should feminists relate to the growing anti-racist struggles and work in the trade unions? What role do we see the Women's Movement having in the fight for liberation? Can Marxism and Leninism offer anything to feminists? What is the relationship of the women's movement to "traditional politics"-from elections to political parties.
1979 will see major discussion of these important areas of strategy and perspectives for the Women's Liberation Movement first at the Socialist Feminist Conference and then at the National Women's Liberation Conference. In this, and the forthcoming issues of SOCIALIST WOMAN we hope to carry reports and discussion which can contribute to these debates.
AN APOLOGY So wha ran into finan chat problems and delay od quespy. is dried set out excuses but financial donations would not go amiss. To make amends we are planning a bumper Christmas issue. We've already been promised a major article by Alex Holt who edited a recent book of Kollantai writings. She explains "I am writing about why I decided to research on Kollantai, the problems involved in this research, both those that are common to all women's studies and those peculiar to Soviet studies and why I think her ideas are important. I have particularly focused on the relation of women to the party, Kollantai's ideas on this and her difficulty in functioning efficiently in politics"
WE WELCOME YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS! You may have been enthused, disappointed or angry about articles in this issue. Why not write and tell us? Or start a new debate in the pages of Socialist Woman.
