Lou, thanks for discovering and posting this. As ever, Samir Amin is sharp as a
tack.
However, given his Maoist background, he always seems to go easy on the PRC.
I think he is correct in refraining from labeling the PRC as a variant on
comprador
capitalism. But I think he also overstates the extent to which the Chinese
monetary
and financial system is outside the circuits of global accumulation. He also
seems to
exempt China from the sort of criticisms one might want to wage against the
other
G20 members. But anyway, it is inspiring to see Amin keeping on with his
particular
brand of analyzing and fighting with the long haul in mind.
