THERE IS AN ERROR IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH, HANS - it should read:
"economic causes underpinning the development of political phenomena".
(4.00 am and all that!)

I do, however appreciate the opportunity to debate economic questions with
you or any one else.  Contrary to Proyects assertion, I do have an interest
in the subject, as all Marxists should.  The founder of our Communist Party,
Jose Carlos Mariategui taught that one must "look for the political causes
underpining the development of political phenomena".
