Doesn't the United States have a poor record in selecting its clients?
Mobutu, Marcos, Somoza,

Michael,
I am still having difficulty to send mails to your university
address. It somehow works through the list but not when I write
to your address directly. Weird. It could be a problem with my
settings but something like this has never happened before. Maybe

I, too, don't know much about this. But it's quite possible that the
communes weren't run democratically. It's only if they were run
democratically that the bit about 200 people applies. (I wasn't thinking
straight -- if I had, I would have mentioned this.) If they were run in a

These are comments on selected passages from Michael Hardt's article on
"Porto Alegre: Today's Bandung" that appears in the online edition of the
New Left Review 14, March-April 2002.
