[Sci-Hub link.](http://sci-hub.se/10.14452/MR-068-07-2016-11_1) * [Monthly Review Link](https://monthlyreview.org/2016/12/01/marx-as-a-food-theorist/) as the paper is not on Sci-Hub yet.
cross-posted from: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/361434 > Hello comrades! > I have read many Marxist analyses of many current issues, including RU-UKR, various aspects of the Chinese revolution and modern China, and imperialism, and it got me wondering: when you are faced with an issue that has not been addressed from a materialist perspective, what questions do you ask yourself to guide your analysis of that event? What questions, in general, are answered in an analysis to make it "Marxist"? How do you find contradictions in the Marxist sense? In short, how do I go about applying Marxism to any given situation?
cross-posted from: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/358576 > I found myself in a discussion about historical materialism where I ended up saying something along the lines of "scientific progress helps us to build more ethical societies because it enables us to see through the injustices of race, religion, and capitalism." I was kind of firing from the hip, but I couldn't think of anything better to say. My conversation partner asked me if I thought you could do a scientific experiment or analysis on a moral problem, and I was frankly stumped. > > I know we aren't supposed to think in moral categories, but I sense every one of us thinks, and correct me if I'm wrong, that capitalism is wrong and communism is right morally speaking. With that in mind, as contradictions are resolved per historical materialism and as different peoples have socialist revolutions within their societies, do these societies become more moral in any sense?
Often, compiled programs have extra code added by a compiler to ensure their local variables are not modified outside of the program's environment. This behavior is eerily similar to how the capitalist state uses their security forces to ensure the existence of private property in their economy. However, commonly local code can become redundant; so humans have grouped them into namespaces. Namespaces seem similar to communal property; where a tribe collectively owns the property. Eventually, some communally owned code gets used enough by communities for them to end up publicly owned. This is similar to how communally owned objects lose ownership and can be used by anyone. * The programming example would be adding commonly used functions in programs to a standard compiler or interpreter.
Everyone has flaws, so I wonder what were the flaws of Marx and Marxism.
