Marx explains that the fundamental cause of all real capitalist crises is overproduction, or, in the jargon of the modern economists, excess capacity (which is the result of overproduction of the means of production). The fact that society is plunged into crisis because it produces too much is a feature of capitalism that was unknown in previous societies.

It set the final seal on the former Stalinist parties, which abandoned any pretence of standing for socialism and became a pale reflection of the Social Democracy. The same process led to the virtual collapse of left reformism as a definite tendency in the labour movement.

“National sovereignty” has become an empty word, as every government is subjected to the vicissitudes of the world market.

После 1991 года.

The bourgeois economists have an aversion to pronouncing the word “overproduction” (strangely, some self-styled Marxist economists suffer from the same affliction). But from a Marxist point of view the root cause of the crisis is very clear. Surplus value is extracted in the process of production, but this does not exhaust the process of money-making. The ability of the capitalist to realise the surplus value extracted from the labour of the workers ultimately depends on his ability to sell his commodities on the market. But this possibility is limited by the level of effective demand in society, that is, by the ability to pay.

"Перепроизводство", "прибавочная стоимость", продажа на рынке - старый простодушный капитализм. Да уж, были времена.

The problem is one of leadership. The complete inability of the so-called Communist Party to offer an alternative to the masses means that the protests have been led by bourgeois Liberals and petty bourgeois democrats. But this movement is only a symptom of a growing unrest, which sooner or later must be expressed in a social explosion. In time, the Russian working class will rediscover in action the real traditions of the October Revolution and Bolshevism.<

Настоящих буйных мало, вот и нету вожаков.
Так называемая Communist Party не снабжает массам альтернативу.

Традиция - это то, что передаётся неким образом, а не то что когда-то было и сплыло.
