If that's not feasible, Third-World revolutions are practically
doomed, though they may hobble along while trying to make
accommodations to the world capitalist market. Even Cubans -- the
best case of Third-World revolutions -- are having a hard time just
getting by, increasingly dependent upon tourism & foreign investment.
