the "school"

[Linda McPhee]

Another source of background on the early years of the Frankfurt 
Institute is a special issue of _Development and Change_ 
volume 10, No.4 (`Plus ca change... Essays in Honour of Kurt
Martin')
The issue includes articles about Kurt's years as Pollack's 
assistant and as editor of the Z-f-S and so on; they provide some
interesting background (though Kurt himself is even more 
interesting).
