the economic categories in the order in which they were the in the factors of history. The order course of sequence is rather deter- mined by the relation which they bear to one another in modern bourgeois society, and which is the exact opposite of what seems to be their natural order or their historical development. 'What we are interested in is not the place which econo- mic relations occupy in the his- torical succession of different forms of society ... we are interested in their organic con- nection with modern bourgeois society,' This outline of Marx's theory of the economic basis of classes brings out the essential unity of his historical materialist out- look in one other way, which must be mentioned if only in • to some of Marx's answer critics. In an earlier section of this (Marx, 'Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy', Charles H. Kerr & Co. Chicago 1904, pp. 303-304.) Saturday July 25, 1970 series, Engels' letters of the 1890s on historical materialism were quoted. It was indicated that these letters, stressing the interaction of base and super- structure, and the relative autonomy of superstructural elements in elaborating social and cultural forms, were in no way just an afterthought to account for unforeseen difficul- ties in the application of the original theory. The following quotation • Vol. Ill of from 'Capital' is given as an example of Marx's own acceptance of this viewpoint.

FORMATIONS

The specific role played by aw in relation to production, the different significance 01 custom and tradition in specific historical formations, and, most brilliant of all, portrayal of the way in which a custom necessarily enshrined in law to provide the feudal system with stability actually opens the and higheew social relations mature over underneath it, thus turning it into its opposite, are here shown in outline as part of the general preparation of the transition from feudalism to capitalism: 'Since the direct producer (in feudal society) is not the owner, but only a possessor, and since all his surplus labour de jure actually belongs to the landlord, some historians have expressed astonishment that it should be at all possible for those subject to enforced labour, or serfs, to acquire any independent property, or rela- tively speaking, wealth, under such circumstances. However, it is evident that tradition must play a dominant role in the primitive and undeveloped circumstances on which these social production relations and mode of production are based. * It is furthermore clear that here as always it is in the interest of the ruling section of society to sanction the existing order as law and to legally establish its limits given through usage and tradition.

Apart from all else, this, by the way, comes about of itself as soon as the constant repro- duction of the basis of the existing order and its funda- mental relations assumes regulated and orderly form in the course of time. And such regulation and order are them- selves indispensable elements of any mode of production, if it is to assume social stability and independence from | mere chance and arbitrariness. These are precisely the form of its social stability and therefore its freedom from relative mere arbitrariness and mere chance.

'Under backward conditions of the production process as well the corresponding as social relations, it achieves this form by mere repetition of their very reproduction. If this has continued on for some time, it entrenches itself as custom and tradition and is finally sanctioned as an explicit law. 'However, since the form of this surplus-labour, enforced labour, is based upon the im- perfect development of all social productive powers and the crudeness of the methods of labour itself, it will naturally absorb a relatively much smaller portion of the direct producer's total labour than under-developed modes of production, particularly the capitalist mode of production.

* "Take it, for instance, that the enforced labour for the landlord originally amounted to two days per week. These two days of enforced labour per week are thereby fixed, are a constant magnitude, legally regulated by prescriptive or written law. But the produc- tivity of the remaining days of of the week, which are at the disposal of the direct producer himself, is a variablé magni- tude, which must develop in the course of his experience, just as the new wants he ac- quires, and just as the expan- sion of the market for his product and the increasing assurance with which he dis- poses of this portion of his labour-power will spur him on to a greater exertion of his labour-power, whereby it should not be forgotten that the employment of his labour- power is by no means confined rura cuter dustry dudes industry. The possibility is here presented for definite economic develop- ment taking place, of course, upon favourable circumstances, inborn racial characteristics, etc. (2"Capital", Vol. III, pp.

Mao Tse-tung

STUDENTS

of the various sects claiming to be 'Maoist' are recommended to read the June 1970 number, of the 'Trish Communist, the "Theor- etical Journal of the Irish Communist Organization'. It seems that this group may well be treading in the foot- steps of the London-based 'Marxist-Leninist Organization of Britain'. MLOB, as it is affectionately known dozen or so members, launched the first its journal Red number of Front' back in 1967 under the banner of 'Mao's Thought'.

'Comrade Mao's theory of cultural revoltuion under the dicatorship of the proletariat serves as a beacon for Marxist- Leninists in all lands, for the working class of all countries' Doubters warned : were 'Whoever is against Mao Tse- tung is against Marx'. The next number of 'Red Front' blandly announced to its readers that Mao had been a counter-revolutionary from the very beginning of his poli- tical career, and that China, like the Soviet Union, was an imperialist, fascist state: "The Chinese capitalist class, in striving to impose their military - fascist dictatorship, have ... found it desirable to official "Weltens- impose an chauung" ["world outlook"].

'It is known as "the thought of Mao Tse-tung" and is based on such extracts from the writings and speeches of Mao Tse-tung as the capitalist class finds useful to their needs at a particular moment.' Now the Irish Communist Organization has fallen out with its erstwhile mentors in Peking. After reproducing re- ports published by the Chinese news agency Hsinhua on the crisis in Ulster, the recent journal makes the following comment: "The report bears no relation to the conceivable realities of the Ulster crisis.

•.. The struggle in the six counties is not a revolutionary struggle. [The Hsinhua report insisted - correctly - that it was.] 'The result is that militant bourgeois radicalism is con- fused with revolutionary work- ing-class struggles directed at capitalism and imperialism' Г i would like inform Fill in the form below and si

The sharpest divergences predictably arose over the role of the British troops sent to Ulster last August : *According Hsinhua to British imperialist News, troops were then sent to Ulster to suppress the movement for reform. Yet on the contrary, they were sent to suppress the developing pogrom, and to en- sure that the necessary retorms were carried through." In what is a carbon copy of the line pursued by the oppor- tunist 'International Socialism' group and the Fabian British Communist Party, this ultra- Stalinist journal continues: 'Rather than British troops being received by the Catholic masses as those who had come suppress their to further they struggle, were received as protectors in the situation, as indeed they were. [Empha- sis added.] Everybody seems to know that except the Hsin- hua News Agency. For those so rash as to actually oppose the dispatch of imperialist troops to Ulster, our 'anti-revisionist' has these words of warning: "To the extent that oppo- sition to British imperialism in Ulster has been seen it repre- sents, objectively, reaction; not /progressive bourgeois democratic policies.' Ulster This 'mistake' by Peking has, of course, to be explained.

The reason offered by the 'Irish Communist' has a fam- iliar ring for those familiar with war-time Stalinist policy in Britain. 'If the anti-revisionist move- ment cannot stomach the fact that British imperialism is still capable of pursuing an anti- fascist policy, and finds itself not making concrete analyses of concrete conditions but inventing fantasies like the repressive role of British troops!], then it augurs ill for future of communist politics.' (Another article in the same journal, the third in a series 'On Trotskyism', describes it as 'a detachment of bourgeois politics. Support for British troops in Ulster how- ever earns the honourable title of 'anti-revisionist' or 'anti- fascist'.) In the book of this parti- cular 'Maoist' grouplet, 'anti- revisionists' equals pro-British imperialism. We await the comments of Hsinhua with some interest.

These are extremely timely warnings. The docks strike is not just another pay dispute. It brings to a head, in the first weeks of Tory rule, all the enormous problems of speed-up, un- employment, wages and 'modernization' facing dockers.
