I am writing to reiterate my invitation to join me at the forthcoming American Sociological Meetings, Aug. 19-23, in Washinngton DC. Those of you who will attend are welcome to come to the roundtable on Progressive Population Studies I have created just for the purpose of our getting together, exchange ideas and coordinate our efforts to get PPN off the virtual ground :-) The roundtable is sponsored by the Section on Marxist Sociology and will meet some time (I do not have the preliminary program yet) on August 21, which is the Section day. I look forward to meeting many of you. I will leave for Argentina next Friday, June 2 and will return in mid-July. At that time, I would very much like to find your responses to this invitation, letting me know if you intend to make a brief presentation. I intend to write down some of my current understanding of a progressive approach to the study of population to share with you at the roundtable, and hope several of you can do the same. Have a wonderful summer! Martha ______________________________________________ Martha E.
