Yes, I've read it, although I have not read many of the people he criticizes in his essay. It seems to me that it's quite possible to disagree with Lenin's theory without denying a) the existence of imperialism b) the fundamental fact that advance of class struggle in the so-called advanced capitalist countries requires rejection of and opposition to the imperialist extensions, pretensions, mechanisms so integral to the capitalist mode of production. Rosa Luxemburg is one example of (a) and (b).
Clearly one country can exploit, oppress another nation or nationality--Britain and the Irish struggle comes to mind, and I have no problem answer items 4-12, if anyone is interested. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
