Simon,
How can we demonstrate the 'state of nature' prior to
the revolution?
How do you negate the capitalist worldview scientifically? Surely to
delete capitalism from the make-up of the world always ends-up
looking like a previous stage in history as that is the only basis of
comparison. This is what most Utopian Socialist writing do. To say
that people are not naturally capitalist leave open lots of
historical example of non-capitalist humanity for previous historical
stages.
I don't understand what inital point you are making as you end by
agreeing that 'what we actually are, as you recognise, will be found
out after' the revolution.
> I think you are being a bit harsh on anarchists
I specifically avoided reference to anarchists in general I was only
comparing him to that extreme for of left wing liberalism which often
manifests itself within the tradition of anarchism and again only
that section which tends towards Utopianism (often quite openly).
Out-and-out anarchism I greatly admire what I despice is people
holding such views mascarading as revolutionary Marxists.
What anarchists were you thinking of who shun morals and/or ethics?
Regards,
John
