The "famous triangle" is an abstractoin, Martin. It does not, qua
abstraction,
represent different kinds of objects, social rules, commnities, etc. Most
famously,
it does not represent time. Rather, I assme that in any instance of its use,
the analyst
must carry out an historically grounded analysis of specific forms of
activity and the way
in which the constituent analytic categories are embodied and undergo change
over time.
Something about rising to concrete may be involved.

Soviet scholars could write all they want to about kinds of division of
labor and alenation so long
as they were writing about capitalism. They could not do so about their own
country which was,
as you know, on its way to becoming a worker's paradise, or perhaps already
was one, so that
any claims about alienation were slurs upon the state.
