There are places in the world where you'll see it. In countries which had strong left traditions and can turn out respectable numbers of voters for communisy parties, even France, where the PCF is in steep declione, you can still turn out a mass rally that looks like 1930. But that doesn't mean, by any honest or objective measure, that Marxism in France is in good shape. As for the KPRF, with its red-brown nationalist socialist politics, that's not what anyone here means by the revival of Marxism. I hope. jks  "ChrisD(RJ)" <chrisd@russiajournal.com> wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">At 4:24 PM -0800 2/9/03, andie nachgeborenen wrote: >But Marxism as a movement, hammers and sickles, red flags and >banners of Marx and Lenin, workers singing The Internationale -- >that's over. --- Jesus, you've obviously never seen a KPRF rally in Moscow.</BLOCKQUOTE> <hr size=1>Do you Yahoo!? <a href="http://rd.yahoo.com/mail/mailsig/*http://mailplus.yahoo.com">Yahoo!
