Rakesh Bhandari quoted Mattick Jr:


>"What drew Marx's attention to political economy as an
>object of critical analysis was the combination of its theoretical
>inadequacy and its dominion over professional intellectual and ordinary
>thinking alike. He was thus faced with the same problem as Evans Pritchard:
>the explanation of a conceptual scheme that is functionally indispensable
>to the life of a culture despite its inconsistencies and absurdities."

So what's the answer, Rakesh?
