Brezhnev Detente Critique and AgriPower Debate
The piece argues that detente is a temporary balance with the West while the Soviet Union maintains large military programs. It cites Miles M. Costick’s study on U S Soviet grain trade and warns that the United States must leverage its agripower to counter Brezhnev’s middle 80s forecast. The analysis notes U S grain dominance, Soviet import needs, and past grain sales to Moscow amid political critiques of Nixon Kissinger Ford policies.

Browsing a Brentano's for Marxist Milieu and More
A narrator wanders Brentano's on Fifth Avenue near Rockefeller Center spotting an overwhelming Marxist and socialist shelf. The sprawling display includes works by Althusser, Bakunin, Engels, Gramsci, Fromm, Goldman, Hobsbawm, Kautsky, Lenin, Marx, and many others with the sense of a bourgeois capital embracing radical theory.
