Trotman was probably Greider's source for a similar statement in his One World .... The Asian crisis may allow some companies to dismantle some of their capacity, but I still see the inablity to absorb all the capacity as a major threat to industrial capital. While financial capital's thirst for anti inflationary actions has been temporarily quelled with the Asian crisis, we still have this ongoing split in capital's ranks. Doug Henwood (correctly) insists that the same firms are often both financial and industrial, but this dualism really amounts to a schizophrenia. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
