THE HAZE OF LEFT

The  very notion of so much delibration on theory of marxism , vividly emphasize that there is hope and chance to reclaim  the very notion of a just/eqalitarian and opperession free world. The need of hour,as you 've rightly stated that to fight with utmost ressolve and an undomitable will with all the forces of revisionism. You'll agree with me when I say that the whole intelligentia of world is engulfed into a graet HAZE- A Haze of confusion,chaos,lack of clarity and in a great deal lack of any visible theory which can throw the dimmest light upon this state of affair. I personaly feel that the act of Lenin when he chose to write "Materialism and Emperio-critism" has to understood in total historical perspective and we must put forward the theory from the thread he had left. To have an iconoclatic perspective upon any of theretical promlem 'll be the a great folly  for which history'll never forgive us. See -the greatest attribute of POWER(let us accept the Foucaultian intrepreatation of history) is to appropriate /sumsume even the greatest rebel. Budha,Mohamad even Christ were  greatest rebels of their time but history has shown that the POWER could apprpriate them and assimilated into itself. More or less the same thing has happened with Marx/Lenin also and we must accept that the present Power(to Quote US et el. shall be over-simplification) has made them unfashionable/out of context/histoeical blur. You talk to the most opperessed youth - even he 'll not envince slightest interest into the marxian theory.
I strongly feel that as far as Economic Theory is concerned, there is no better or even the reply to Marx. The whole gamut of economists througout have only tried to falsify the surplus value theory and the inherent contradictions of capitalism - may it be Keyense,Schumpeter,Samuelson - they are only trying to cover up the glaring contradictions of capitalism which was so clearely expounded by Marx.But the historical blunder has happened that nobody since marx have even tried to further develop/evolve the economic theory which is core of whole Marxism.Instead the focus was sifted to superstructure-cultutral studies / sexuality and other polemics. The result is so clear- Bourgesis has simply appropritated the whole leftist movement.

इस सहस्त्राब्दी की सबसे बड़ी त्राशदी है - "वैचारिक दिवालियापन "! मार्क्स का भूत - इतना बड़ा है - देरिदा तक को बेचैन करता है - मृत्यु के पास । लेकिन क्या यह मानवता की सबसे बड़ी विडम्बना नहीं कहेंगे कि मार्क्स के बाद पूर्ण विराम लग जाता है - विचार और वैचारिकी के क्षेत्र में ।
