For newcomers to Marxmail, it should be understood that David's support for nuclear power is not typical of the Marxist left. To my knowledge, the only groups with this position included the Frank Furedi led RCP which mutated into the libertarian Spiked Online website (it now supports nuclear power in the name of "growth" rather than a warped interpretation of the CM), the German Marxist-Leninist sect Neue Einheit (now defunct) and the Spartacist League in the USA (I can't provide evidence of this, however, since so little of their ravings is on the Internet.) ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
