In response to Rob, my expaination would be that with the collapse of
the socialist bloc, and the catastophic effects of capitalism on
Russia, Imperialism (in the dual guise NATO the EU) is attempting
to pick off all of Russia's neighbours before it has chance to
recover. Yugoslavia was the
Just a BRIEF reply to Dave's reply to Rob.
Without wanting to sound too sectarian there were a few points in the
repy which don't seem to make much sense to me. The arguement appears
to be that we should defend Yugoslavia as well as supporting the
right of Kosovars to defend themselves. Rob's
Steve,
Thanks for the info. on London. Up here, in Manchester, Workers Power
are the only active Marxist organisation (I'm not sure if Socialist
Outlook is Marxist) which is campaigning hard and vosiferously for
the K.L.A.

Everyone's reply to my 'Paragraph on the Balkans' was quite
interesting
even if it was longer than a short paragraph on your view of the
situation. I6t would be much more useful to have a brief note on what
everyone's position is (both theoretically and in their propaganda),
who you do and
Chris,
I think you might want to note that this list is aimed at MARXISTS
not left reformists (to whom I would hope it would be opposed!) and
the Guardian has never been Marxist.
In fact it was set up as a Liberal paper and is still funded by the,
politically Liberal, Scott Trust (named
Dear all,
If you could slow down this debate slightly, please can anyone tell
me if in Marx's own day what the relation between the amount of gold
in the economy and the amount of other commodies being exchanged was.
Was there (at that time) enough gold he;d to honour all the

Dear Neil,
One doesn't have to believe that Yugo, China and Russia are 'Worker's
States' to know that a scramble for the ex-communist states is being
mounted by imperialism. And that the further advances of capital into
these countries is not in the interests of the working class
Comrades,
Sorry I'm a bit confused by all this over-accumulation and under-
consumption debate (as my earlier unresolved Gold question revealed I
haven't got far through Book I of Capital, never mind Book III !).
So it would be useful to know what exactly the old RCP/now LM were

Comrades,
In my opinion as someone from Britain, the Republican movement though
now far from it revolutionary arder of previous years is still the

Imperialism. It might not have the aims we might like, it may have

Why should we, as socialists or Marxists, adopt such a perspective?
In what way does it contribute to the struggle for socialism?

Lew,
The importance of dialectical materialism to the struggle for
socialism is in my opinion twofold.
First, people like Engles wanted to appeal to the
Rob,
One of the great fears about asking a question is to have too many
too long replies. So can I ask the most difficult question which
merits the lengthist of answers BUT to ask for only a *brief* reply.
The question is: What are we waiting for?
What do comrades consider is the MOST
George,
Surely this cannot be a serious column. Not only is the format,
of Furedi as agony aunt simply bizare, but the politics that lie
behind it (which is the real point) are beyond comprehension. That we
