Went to Kyn´s article, and found out a most interesting thing. If Kyn is quite solid in his denunciation of the "schools of Scotland and Bremen" as at best ill-researchers of the sources they quote, it looks like this is a debate between misquoters. Kyn states that among his students there is a "Federico Morchio, Minister, Argentina." You can be absolutely certain that this Morchio has never been Minister at the Federal level in Argentina, ever. At most, he was "chief of cabinet in the Secretary for Industry, Commerce and Small/medium enterprises" during the early, and most neoliberal, moments of the Kirchner administration (2003). His being a "minister" has to do with a third rank position in the Arg Diplomatic Service, where he seems to be acting on secondary or third-rank issues related to Foreign Direct Investment. A typical position-eater of the neoliberal breed, a grey bureaucrat that either has duped Kyn into believing he has got a ministerial rank, either has been presented by Kyn as still another neoliberal pupil of his in the former "neoliberal paradise" of Argentina. If Kyn´s remaining examples of "students" and "colleagues" are consistent, I would think it twice before calling this man a "market socialist", BTW. What I believe is that both Kyn and the two schools belong to the same gender of budget nipping intellectuals. They just cater to different buyers. -- Néstor Gorojovsky El texto principal de este correo puede no ser de mi autoría ________________________________________________ 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
