Debate with Pak Noja
I should have got around to linking to this a couple of weeks ago: Pak Noja was kind enough to post at his blog a rambling and not particularly coherent response I wrote to his series of articles on the early years of the Russian Revolution and the role of Trotsky in particular. The original pieces he wrote concern Trotsky and the problem of conscription, learning from the Russian Revolution and Shliapnikov and Trotsky and are all in Korean, so unfortunately unless you read Korean you won’t be able to understand what I’m on about in my response (in English). And Noja’s response to my response (in Korean) won’t be of much use to you either. But I thought I’d post this up anyway in case there are any bilingual readers out there with an interest in the debates surrounding the Russian Revolution and its aftermath.
