Disavowing the central Marxist doctrine of a dictatorship of the proletariat as out of date, Marchais argued instead that his party's call was to unite the working class with the salaried middle class. In a blatant appeal to Roman Catholic voters, he decried loose morals and praised François Cardinal Marty, the Archbishop of Paris, for his recent outspoken criticism of the lucrative French armaments trade. Marchais also scorned collectivism as a "barracks Communism that casts everyone and everything in the same mold." The French party, he insisted, does not want "uniformity that stifles, but diversity that...
...through some kind of magical transformation--of the humanities. Here was the man who could bring together all of the specialists entrenched in the battlelines of literary criticism--the New Critics, the Freudian, the historical-approachers, the biographical-literati, the "high culture" mongerers, and the platitudinists of Christian and Marxist interpretations of literature.

Aside from the narrow point that his political myopia prevents him from distinguishing Marxists from anarchists from populists, I would like to remind Wilson of what he already knows: the first public attack on Sociobiology came from that noted Marxist economist, Paul Samuelson, who in his column in the rabid left periodical, Newsweek, called "Sociobiology just another example of "social Dar-winism." No, Prof. Wilson, it doesn't take a Weather-man to know which...
...Soviet-backed Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (M.P.L.A.) delivered some devastating military blows to its opponents last week. With Cuban "freedom fighters" doing more and more of the fighting, the Marxist-oriented regime of Agostinho Neto in Luanda seemed on the verge of eliminating one of its rival factions and at least neutralizing the other...
