For our seventy-fifth anniversary issue, John Bellamy Foster revisits the legacy of Albert Einstein and his deep connections to Monthly Review, including his authorship of the article "Why Socialism?," published in our first-ever issue in May 1949. Through historical documents and the famed physicist's own words, Foster rediscovers Einstein's commitment to socialism in both word and deed, and his collegial ties to MR's founding editors.Downloads
