Victor,
Why did Leontev use "predmetnaja dejatelnost"?? As opposed to what?
Ne-predmetnaja?? What could that be?
Is it a difference between actual doing and only "planning", "thinking",
"dreaming" - doing in thought but not physically (materially) working?
Or something else.
What is the contrast to "object-related"?
