Nah, they are totalitarians. Fascists focused on efficiency and controlling the means to expand the empire (metals, tanks, etc). Instead, what we have today is an attempt to control the general means of production to ensure the population is dependent upon the government. Those same people will complain about the "military industrial complex," which under a fascist state, would be the government. Link to comment

Arkayology Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I have. He's a hack. I've read Marx, Engels, and Weber a bit and am using some of their ideas in my research(I'm an archaeologist). Comes in useful when I am talking about state-local interaction, power relations, and the control of goods by the state. Social theory is not my forte, however, as I focus mostly on material remains and not living society. It all works together though to build a picture of how society was constructed in the past and present. All Marx was really saying, and why the US demonized his writings, is that there will be inevitable class conflict because of the lower classes wanting to control the mode of production and the upper classes wanting to hold on to their privileged status. O, and that the proletariat will overcome! Link to comment

Arkayology Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 He's also rolling over in his grave, since "Marxism" is so far removed since what he really believed in. There is a definite difference between Marx's ideas, Marxism, and Communism. Link to comment
