So capitalism is the way of the whole world. And yet not even capitalism can lead us to socialism. We are doomed!

But at least we figured out what’s left and what’s right.

In fact they are—or would be if they or any one else took them seriously— preaching pure and unadulterated socialism. Businessmen who talk this way are unwitting puppets of the intellectual forces that have been undermining the basis of a free society these past decades.

This was the only way they could imagine societal progress: quickly moving the country into capitalism so as to achieve socialism. I conclude that it was not only Stalin who taught this.

I think that in CHAT, we are indebted to Marx for many things, but surely one debt we would do well not to disavow is Marx's insistence (in Critique of the Gotha programme and elsewhere) that nature is NOT capital: on the contrary, humans and all of their various property forms from communism to capitalism must be considered peculiar forms of nature. This is a discussion that CHAT needs to have if we are going to retain the AT in CHAT. I disagree with Peter Jones on many many things, but one thing I heartily agree with him on is the idea that Leontiev brings an intensely anti-naturalistic view of activity into activity theory--humans acting as subjects on passive environments to produce beneficial outcomes.

Western capitalism, with its idea of nature as capital, is really  just one extreme variant. In Marx's columns on the Sepoy rebellion and the Taiping rebellion, he even posits an "Asiantic mode of production" that had virtually nothing to do with feudalism. So to say that South Korea and Japan are equally capitalist societies is really a little like saying that China and the USSR were equally non-capitalist. Deus Sive Natura: and neither one is capital.

Though there has been no destruction of the site that, based on Native American narratives and the efforts of archeologists, is architecturally spectacular evidence of the pre-Colombian culture from which the present-day Pueblos come. What parallels RTZ activities on aboriginal lands in Australia is the drilling for gas and oil on Navajo lands surrounding Chaco and a rush to buy more rights while Trump is in power. There have been protests, though nothing as intense and effective as the Standing Rock protests to protect water on native lands to our north and east from gas and oil predation (the pipeline). Standing Rock was LED by Native Americans, many from the Navajo, Apache and Pueblo near me.

What redeems a messy struggle is exactly what Andy says: The aboriginal people of the world do it for us! In the same way, when “our” Pueblos put on feasts and invite us in to witness their dances, they do it for us. Perhaps you recall the movie “Koyaniskaatsi”, la Hopi word that has been translated as "life out of balance". (The Hopis are a Puebloan people, descendants of the Chacoan culture. The Navajos and Apaches arrived here about the same time as the European colonizers, based on linguistic and genetic evidence.) If you live in New Mexico, you are around Pueblo people. If you are really lucky, and many of us are, you become friends with them and they invite you to share their food at the feasts! How generous is this? They do it for us.

(The link here, to a Guardian article is available through the first link in John’s post). Here again we should look to our native peoples. There is credible research that concludes the climate change lengthens fire seasons but wrong-headed environmental policies make the fires more intense, hence less controllable. Add to this the incursion of housing into forested areas and the destruction is a doubly self-inflicted wound. And hold on for this one for the best CHAT connection: Native peoples of this continent used to set controlled burns to remove the kind of unburnt fuel to avoid such conflagrations. Today some of  the best-trained and most effective firefighters in this country are Native Americans. Cultural capital. They do it for us, and their example from the past can serve us now. Cultural capital.

Andy, I am telling you again, project is a great unit of analysis, precisely because it brings together cognition and affect, because it embodies active orientation. In my country, it is pretty well agreed that the natives got screwed, across the political divide. Black Lives Matter is more complex, but there is hope that the question of race is now where LGBTQ issues were at the time of the AIDS crisis, in the last century. Back then we could never have guessed we would be where we are with non-gender-conforming acceptance now. Just saying, as much for myself as for anybody else listening.

But I don't think these caves were registered as World Heritage. I have not heard the discussion about this (John?). No-one wants to say this, I think, because it implies that Indigenous values are somehow less important than human values. For example, under the law as it stands the PKK Land Council would have a right to let RTZ destroy the caves and maybe a million dollars or two in the bank or a new school, would be enough. This is not a hypothetical.                                                   One of the reasons that the Indigenous people remain impoverished even where they have Native Title over large areas of land, is that they live, after all, in a capitalist country and Native title cannot be sold. It is not a commodity. Therefore it is not a form of wealth. You can't get a mortgage to build a house on land you own by Native title.  You can't sell a block to a farmer so you can buy agricultural equipment to farm another block. In short, by blocking the Indigenous people from monetising their land rights we trap them in poverty. In general, the indigenous people are happy to forgo tourist income to protect their sacred sites (e.g. Uluru) and I don't doubt for an instant, that if they'd been properly consulted they never would have agreed to the destruction of the caves. Obviously. But they do have to have rights to trade with their land. But also the world needs to keep absolutely unique archaeological sites pristine and the local people should be supported by governments to do the work of protecting them on our behalf. Recognising the great cost entailed.
