Re: [OPE] Important review of Kautskyism Past and Present

Paul C,

You are just being provocative. Kautsky was a renegade and chauvinist and
the consequences of his position were more than disastrous for millions of
working class and oppressed peoples. The second volume of Alec Abbott's
work will be on Kautsky and I will let you know when it is up.
