So, apart from the obligatory cheap jabs, can anyone take a stab at, or at least summarize a reasoned critique of Avakian's arguments? What I'd like to know is, with the collapse of the Soviet Union and reforms in China, why a figure like Avakian is still relevant to whatever .00001% supports him. Are the arguments of anti-revisionist maoism so ridiculously glib as to not even be dignified? --adx --- Michael Pugliese <michael.098762001 at gmail.com> wrote:
