Y. G-M. Lulat

Dear Reader:

Even though the attached review article was published many years ago, the awful tragedy is that the issues identified in it are still as relevant today as they were when the article was first published; and, in fact, may have gotten worse. By making the first few pages of it available here, the hope is that you will be tempted to obtain the full-length article and to read and ponder it in its entirety.

PS. As you attempt to locate the original full-length article per suggested instruction at the end of this item, note that in the original there was a publisher error in the first letter of the author’s last name, hence the spelling appears in it as Yulat.

Typewritten Text

For the rest of this article visit the website indicated below and in the quick search author field enter the name YULAT (even though it is a misspelling of the author’s correct name, Lulat). Note: leave the rest of

the search fields blank.
