hmm, I imagine the then 2 prevalent systems of neoliberal capitalism and soviet-style "communism" to be a pretty terrible combination actually. Although I believe I get what he was trying to say about individual rights within an economy of the commons(or at least thats how I interpret it).
I can't follow, would you elaborate? Sounds like an interesting debate :)
The funny combination would be to combine the single party authoritarian structure with a completly unregulated economy for maximum carnage :P
As far as I underatand the quote, hes talking about needing a socialist system where the rights of individuals are respected and protected, but factories, housing etc is owned and and managed by the commons.
That kinda sounds like the goal of socialism to me, with a state managing the societal functions but the workers owning the means of production but still in a capitalist environment
funny, "we all lift together" started playing in my head.
I love stumbling about references to this game
Your first paragraph pretty much describes the PRC.
