I'm glad you don't adhere to base-superstructure
models. Nevertheless, you must admit that such
notions were widely prevalent in the historical
workers movement, especially in the classical German
Social Democracy which constituted the blueprint for
all Marxism to come.
is there _anyone_ who currently believes in the totally deterministic
base/superstructure (BS) model? It seems that assuming or asserting
that someone uses that model is nothing but a straw-man argument.
