He died on December 19, 2020 from pneumonia brought on by Covid – 19, contracted while in hospital being treated for cancer. The outpouring of tributes to Leo from activists and scholars across the world since his death is testamony to his international reputation as a leading socialist scholar and public intellectual.

In commemoration of Leo’s contribution to SPE, the 11 articles that he authored that were published in the journal over the years are available for free until January 31, 2021. Rest in power, Leo.
