WORKERS VANGUARDSubject Index for Volume SixteenJanuary 1985 to December 1985

Issues Nos. 370 - 393______________________________________________________________________

GUIDE TO THE SUBJECT INDEX

This subject index covers issues of Workers Vanguard published during 1985, from issue No. 370 (11 January) through the end-of-the-year issue No. 393 (13 December). During this time, WV was published biweekly.

The fullest listing is by SUBJECT. Subject headings are arranged alphabetically. Entries are listed chronologically with two exceptions: all entries comprising a series are listed together immediately following the first entry of the series; corrections immediately follow the relevant entry. An asterisk (*) after the page location of an entry indicates that a correction follows.

Entries are listed under subject heads. In some cases subject heads are broken down into subcategories. These subcategories are listed immediately after the initial subject head and preceded by a dot (•). The numbers following each entry headline give the Issue number, date and page number(s) for the article. Thus:

South Africa: Razor’s Edge, #376, 5 Apr. (1, 8, 9)

means the headline of the article, issue No. 376, 5 April 1985, beginning on page 1 and continuing on pages 8 and 9.

No entry is listed twice; refer to cross references for guidance in locating the subject head for particular articles. Cross references are of two types: those following the word “see” deal centrally with the subject head; those following the words “see also” are related articles. Subject heads in cross references are separated by a semi-colon, while subcategories of subject heads are separated by a comma. Thus:

POLICE — See also Civil Liberties: Cases, Bermudez; Philadelphia MOVE Massacre.

means that articles on police can also be found by going to the subject head CIVIL LIBERTIES and looking under the subcategories Cases and Bermudez and by going to the subject head Philadelphia MOVE Massacre.

Individuals mentioned in articles are usually not listed separately unless the article is primarily about the given person.

Entries relating to foreign countries are listed under geographical headings and not necessarily under any other subject heading. Unless listed separately for some unusual reason, all foreign political organizations are listed under appropriate countries, while U.S. political organizations are listed under their organizational names. General articles about the ostensibly revolutionary left in the U.S. are listed under LEFT ORGANIZATIONS.

Specific defense cases (e.g. the SL’s suit against the FBI) are listed under CIVIL LIBERTIES. Articles which deal with the intersection of American blacks with the U.S. legal system (Geronimo Pratt) are listed under CIVIL RIGHTS, while general articles on the black question are listed under BLACK QUESTION.

Generally events in any given locality within the U.S. are listed by their subjects. This year, because of the high degree of intersection of events in New York City, all articles on the city generally, the elections, the housing question and the police are listed as subcategories under NEW YORK CITY.
