The UK to learn about how Epic Bacon Corbyn shows the path to electoral victory, and India I’m guessing to tour Kerela and see how left wing regional governments can exist inside a neoliberal federal structure.

just my guesses

not really, monthly review is closer to an academic journal and viewpoint is monthly review with better graphic design
