The lively ghost of Vladimir Lenin


     As a democratic Socialist I have critical admiration for Russia's Vladimir Lenin- perhaps the greatest revolutionary of all time. Even his book " State and Revolution " explains police brutality in our inner cities.
With the 100th anniversary of Bolshevik Revolution approaching the new capitalist oligarchy in Moscow is nervous about the Russian people not being so " indifferent " to the memory of Lenin after all.
In a universe where everything evolves and changes only capitalism and the " free market " is eternal ?
The scientific method is inapplicable to human history, to the evolution of civilization, to the self-evident class struggle ?
The new Russian Czar Vladimir Putin has every reason to hate and fear the lively ghost of Lenin.
