Re: [Pen-l] Question on overdetermination

[Doyle Saylor <doylesaylor@xxxxxxx>]

Greetings Economists,
I don't think this is about status.  The philosophy of materialism  
rests upon some claims that split European opinion and went along with  
communists into the rest of the world.  The Marxist argued with  
western philosophers about materialism for quite awhile.  The  
metaphysics of positivism and Marxist clashed for a long time.

This is not a subject that lends itself to resolution here.

Is it appropriate to study Freud?  As has been noted on this list in  
the past, the study of Freud continues in English departments but not  
in medicine.  This focus though on who studies what is to me, about  
who controls teaching more than who is important to study.  There are  
many worthies.  but an unjust society does not provide equal access  
all the way around.  Tout court.
Thanks,
Doyle Saylor
