New Pamphlet: Salvador Puig Antich and the MIL (Movimiento Iberico de Liberacion)
Salvador Puig Antich was a revolutionary murdered by the state in Barcelona in the last years of the Franco regime. This volume looks at the struggle of the MIL, both in the context of the times, and the light of current attempts to 'rehabilitate' him as a martyr for capitalist 'democracy'.

Forskningsrådet vid Arbetarrörelsens arkiv och bibliotek har utsett Jimmy Engren till 2008 års Rudolf Meidner-pristagare.
Se utdrag ur pressmeddelandet:
Engren är en av de få svenska historiker som har gett sig i kast med ett icke-svenskt ämne, och spännvidden av undersökningsområdet i denna mycket väl genomförda avhandling imponerar, även när det gäller undersökningsperiodens längd.
