"who gives a shit about this stuff? my grandfather fought these fights and he's long since dead and gone 40+ years ago."
On the one hand I agree that we have to fight our fights. On the other hand our history is part of our present and if we want to make the future we have to learn from our past in its positive and negative sense. This is what, I think, historical and dialectical materialism is about. ------- Dogan Göcmen (http://dogangocmen.wordpress.com/) Author of The Adam Smith Problem: Reconciling Human Nature and Society in The Theory of Moral Sentiments and Wealth of Nations, I.
