Perry Anderson: Frasi in inglese

Spectrum: From Right to Left in the World of Ideas (2005), Debts 1. "The London Review of Books" (1996; 2005)

Perry Anderson, " Socialism and pseudo-empiricism http://newleftreview.org/static/assets/archive/pdf/NLR03401.pdf." New Left Review 35 (1966): 2-42; as cited in: Blackledge, Paul. Perry Anderson, Marxism and the New Left. Merlin Press, 2004. p. 91.

Spectrum: From Right to Left in the World of Ideas (2005), Ch. 13. "The Vanquished Left, Eric Hobsbawm" (2002)

Debts 1. "The London Review of Books" (1996; 2005)
