This definitely balanced the picture of Hoxha I had, and I appreciate that RSR are trying to recuperate the good aspects of actually existing socialist states. That said, I could have used a little more context, as it wasn't clear too me how, what sounds like an extremely state-centric approach like Hoxha's, helps us think about the *self*-emancipation of the working-class (especially considering that the latter didn't really exist before the Albanian revolution, but had to be created through state-managed industrialization).

Such fun and so fascinating! Thanks. Many, many Albanian cleaners and housekeepers in Greece!
