New Left Review at the Antiuniversity
The people around the New Left Review were taking part in seminars at the Kingsley Hall from 1965. Joseph Berke explains that Kingsley Hall was already a Free University with seminars every second weekend. This group of intellectuals continued to be an important part of the faculty at the AntiU. NLR became the platform of the British new left from 1956 following a break with the Stalinist version of communism catalysed by the Soviet repression of the popular uprising in Hungary that year.
