But Rosa Luxemburg was a marginal figure to the
mainstream of Social Democracy!

Granted, these days her name is used in vain by the
non-profit foundation of a political party whose major
figurehead engages in racist tirades against Polish
immigrants.  An irony of history, I suppose.

No backpedaling here.  I already said I admire
Anderson's work.  I just don't think an account of
shifting class relations is sufficient to explain the
transition from antiquity to feudalism.
