[Elhammoumi]: "social relations of productive activity must be regarded as
a kind of map or anchor which help us to picture, visualize and concretize
the cognitive structures of human higher mental functions, consciousness,
personality and human activity".
[Andy]: ... and labour and social-relation are themselves a unity, a "unit
of analysis" I think, to use a term popular on this list.
Also, images that help us visualise things are always useful, but for me,
the social relations of production are themselves mobile, crisis-ridden
things forming the vital energy which finds expression in human
personality, rather than an anchor or a map. It is the crisis-ridden and
creative nature of those social relations that make teh human mind able to
be such a complex and dynamic thing itself.
