His treatment of Marx is not competent. He makes a series of debatable propositions about Marx while showing no knowledge of the relevant literature. His treatment, I think I've already stated, of the thing he calls the Baran-Wallerstein thesis is not competent. He needs to show enough familiarity with their work to demonstrate that he has accurately represented it to us and enough familiarity with the disparate interpretations of their work to suggest his is better than the others. In other words, insufficient footnotes. Bzzzzzzzt! Call the bouncer! Give the guy the bum's rush! No need to address content, or possible validity thereof. The paper gets an F. When the $%^&$@! did the forum become a dissertation defense? The stuff by Judt or Habermas has no footnotes either, but arguments from a certain quarter don't require the same level of evidence, now do they?
