Yeah, what I have in mind is basically about asking what's an effective way to conceive political movement with Foucault and, more fundamentally, Marx. To use one image: to see the "field" and consider tactics and strategy accordingly. I'm tending towars the theoretical because, of course, I'm not an organizer.

I've been thinking about the final goal question and I'm wondering, at the risk of getting stoned for it, what anyone thinks about Zizek's formulation that Communism (or socialism) is the inherent capitalist fantasy (of unleashed productivity)?
