Invitation to join the Modern Marxism mailing list
[First posted: 01.08.2007]
This list has recently been created (August 2007), website:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/modern_marxism/
I'm listowner. Everybody can join. Postings will not be moderated.
The list's main language is English. Postings in other languages are accepted
too.
The description of the list reads:
"A list for discussion of the political theory of Marx, Lenin and Mao Zedong
and of its further development.
The listowner holds that:
- this theory's basic tenet, that revolutionary war is necessary for the
overthrow of capitalism and imperialism, must be upheld
- important developments of this theory were made in the 1970s and early 1980s
by a small party in Germany, the "NE", which later however turned bourgeois
- some basic knowledge of the natural sciences is essential for all Marx
adherents today (in 2007), and makes it possible for them to see that the
imperialists today massively are engaging in "green" (anti-industrial) warfare
and in quackery warfare against practically everybody, and to arm the people
against this.
(See www.rolf-martens.com.)
People who are not Marx adherents (or not Lenin or Mao Zedong adherents) are
welcome on this list too.
Some people today use the term "Maoism" as, presumably, a designation for the
theory of Marx, Lenin and Mao Zedong. The listowner holds that this term is
also an acceptable, though somewhat imprecise, designation of modern Marxism.
As vital is considered open discussion and a testing of all tenets of Marxism,
including such which pertain to questions of history.
Postings held by the listowner to be spam will be tolerated to a certain extent
- that beyond which their volume is judged to be a problem for most list
subscribers. Subscribers held to be writing spam will be warned against this,
publicly on the list, and will be kicked off it (only) in case they don't heed
two such warnings. Exceptions to this are addresses sending
business-advertisement type spam. Such will be blocked at once."
