G. William Domhoff, a sociologist who is the author of the classic
work _Who Rules America?_,  recently launched the "Who Rules America?"
website:  <http://sociology.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/>

At this site there is a critique of alternative theoretical perspectives
including (theoretical) pluralism, state autonomy theory (not to be
confusted with autonomist Marxism!), elite theory, and Marxism:
<http://sociology.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/theory/alternative_theories.html>

He also presents a more detailed critique of Marxism:
<http://sociology.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/theory/marxism.html>

Is there any aspect of his critique of Marxism that has merit?

In solidarity, Jerry
