Will Barnes is a long-time activist who lives in the United States. When saked for brief biological information, he offered this response: ‘I live in St. Paul, which is at the heart of the northern US plains economy. Hell, the Minneapolis-St. Paul environs is that economy. I work in the public sector. I'm a driver. I carry a union card.' Barnes has authored several works among which are a really large tome on the American Civil War, an historical analysis of Bolshevism and Stalinism prior to the last imperialist world war, and a critique of capitalist civilisation from the perspective of its revolutionary transformation. His most recent work is entitled Nature, Captial, Communism. All can be accessed at www.instcssc.org
