Ok , Andy . I think I need time to delve into the issue of 'project' and the variations you have offered . Leontiev in itself requires repeated readings and much focus .  Haydi

I generally agree with what you are arguing Haydi, but I think it is quite normal for activities to become routinised. Then we call them institutions.

The objectification of an activity in a material product functioning as a tool or symbol is often the means by which an activity becomes institutionalised.

In the end , we have a product , a thing , a object , How could we call it an activity cycle , then ? Both 'ideality' and along with it 'the activity' are gone . If just one activity continually reproduces itself , what happens to the life , to the man , to the world , then ? Hierarchy of motives and levels of activity are up , too .
