Separation of powers, law, and all these other extremely important things which you call bourgeois trappings simply because they, like the rest of the apparatus of society are controlled and distorted by the bourgeoisie, anticipate conflict among people of good will with the same general purpose. Revolutionary party models do not, and are therefore hopeless. That socialism may create new organs of state with a broader constituency (such as workers' councils, unions, co-ops, etc.) not only fails to negate my point, but supports it. Socialism cannot be inflicted on any but the bourgeoisie who would stand between the worker and his due. Revolutionary party models inevitably do just that. Reading merely the headlines of history would demonstrate that to you perfectly if you came to such a reading with clear eyes. peace --- from list marxism-international-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
