[WSMDiscuss] New article on REDWeb: Marx and Political Ecology

Sat Dec 29 12:53:54 CET 2018

Not sure who the 'no one' is Dunu, or the 'impact' you are referring to.
There are very many who read not just 10 pages, but happily, books if they
are interesting enough. And it seems to me that writers should who have
something to say, should also write at their own terms, and not merely for
an imagined (in this case, uninterested) readership. I would second
Ashish's invitation to you to write a substantial response, elaborating on
your one-liner. We are interested.
