Abstract:
Papers of James Weinstein, an author, historian, writer, and editor of several left-wing publications, including Studies on the Left, Socialist Revolution, Common Sense, and In These Times. The collection (bulk 1970s-1980s) documents his role as founding editor and publisher of the newspaper/news magazine In These Times, which began publication in 1976. Throughout his long career as editor and publisher of In These Times, Weinstein sought to write about news not covered by the mass media. The papers include correspondence from contributors, other personal and professional correspondence, subject files, reviews, news clippings, published articles, and notebooks from his days as a student. Correspondents include Noam Chomsky, Eugene Genovese, John Judis, Staughton Lynd, and Ron Radosh, among others.
