Discussion with Spufford

This is an interesting audio file discussion with Francis Spufford. I've only heard as far as his disputing that Marx ever intended communism to mean abundance, I wonder if anyone out there can suggest any counter evidence?

Still haven't got round to listening to this, but liked your review of it in the Standard. Now I'm going to have to read the bloody thing.

Hello. About two months late pointing this out, but for the record, the voice denying that Marx ever meant communism to mean abundance is actually not me, but my esteemed debating partner Paul Cockshott. Which is a little weird, considering that of the two of us, he's the Marxist. But it was a good conversation.
