Figes - Revisionist

Pipes - Liberal

For a Socialist historian you can refer to the CPSU who published the Short Course on Russian history.

Don't forget a sprinkling of Ricardo and Adam Smith. Add Martin Luther King to taste.

Imagine if we all SCRATCHED OUR EXAMS... they'd have nothing to mark, they wouldn't be able to rank us.
We'd have defeated the system.

That's revolutionary.

Of interest -

It was revealed in April 2010 that Service was the victim of negative reviews posted semi-anonymously by historian Orlando Figes on the Amazon website.[1] Service said about the experience, including being threatened with a libel action by Figes' lawyer before Figes' own eventual admission of responsibility, "I have a distaste for scholars who reach for the instrument of law but the damage done to me has been acute. I am just reserving my position and I am expecting there to be consequences. I don't want to go down into the cess-pit with him. I was terrified last week. I have been a gibbering wreck." [2] Service told The Independent that he wanted to contribute to libel law reform. [3] However, he used the libel laws against Figes for the next three months.[4]
