Hi Alireza-

Thank you for your inquiry. It raises a critical issue in the development
of a critical, cultural-historical activity
theory-   The problem of lack of access for scholars in financially
strapped countries
Here are my thoughts. This seems like an issue for ISCAR to take up.
However, while waiting for such collective action, perhaps something can be
done on a local level, where,
given xmca's distributed nature, "the local" can be far away.

Perhaps you could get together with other xmcaophytes living in Tehran to
figure out a way to pay for shipping.
I estimate 15-18ft of shelf space, which weighs a* lot. * A lot of trees
died in the journal's production over half a
century!

but,

Back issues of the journal are all available online, and they are
expensive. So another route is to obtain the sponsorship
of some organization such as a university or library to get reasonable
access. Do you have such opportunities?

If not,
Perhaps a cheaper and more effective route would be to find someone(s) here
on xmca who do have access
who can help you out.

The best solution appears to require a collective solution.
The two of us make a very small collective. Perhaps others who have read
this far will join the cause.

Good luck!
mike


One way or another,
