Third Camp Socialism collects Phyllis and Julius Jacobson's major writings on civil rights, Stalinism, the Cold War, and the New York Intellectuals.
The Jacobsons advanced a militant, small-d democratic perspective on the landmark events of their era, from the New Deal and World War II to sixties protests and the War on Terror. Today, they are best remembered for founding New Politics and defending a third camp perspective that resists capitalism as well as all varieties of "progressive" authoritarianism. This volume makes a powerful case for revisiting the Jacobsons' contributions to socialist thought.
Phyllis Jacobson (1922-2010) joined the Trotskyist movement as a high school student during the Depression. She and her husband Julius were active in the Workers Party (1940-1949) and its successor, the Independent Socialist League (1949-1958). They cofounded New Politics in 1961.
