Re: [OPE-L] Dieterich, "El paso al socialismo economico ...."

[Paul Cockshott <wpc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It is hard enough for me to translate into my own
language, would not dream of trying to translate into any other
language,
but surely Mike is in a better position than anywhere else
to get his book published in Venezuela, I would be surprised if
that was not being done.

Hi Paul C:

There is also a need for a 'reverse translation' of Mike L's
_Build It Now!_. I.e. there is a need for someone to pick up
the rights to publish in Spanish and other languages other
than English) and do the translations.  Besides Spanish, I think
a Portuguese translation would be timely.  If any of you have an
interest in doing this, please contact Michael at

In solidarity, Jerry
