Dedication
This work is dedicated to my parents, Jose Toussaint (1920-9 7) and
Rose Clermont-Toussaint; to Ernest Mandel (1923-95), Marxist
activist in word and deed; and to Carl Cesar (age 10) of Muriqui, Rio
de Janeiro state, in the hope that he will have both the desire and the
right to go to school; and to all those women and men struggling for
their emancipation.
