Hey Tom: So, trying to understand what the fundamental 'gulp' or foundation of the 'path dependency' was.
On the first 'candidate' - I guess one would have to read the book to get the 'drift'. But it seems that you are not referring to the famous 'Preface' outlining some key notions of historical materialism. Where is the book marketed from? On the second candidate - " Marx's initial ambivalence and subsequent enthusiasm for the Paris Commune, after it had been defeated. Should Marx have engaged earlier? Should he have tempered his post-debacle fervor? I have no idea. But the fallout contributed to the demise of the International. " I will have to carefully review dates etc. But my 'off-the-top-of-head' recollection was that Bakunin had rather fouled the nest, and M & E had basically had enough. And on top of that Florence K-W (Forget her exact name) had done some rather intolerable and besmirching things with the name of the First international. Is that not correct then? Anyway, your book sounds intriguing. H -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
