>he's a Mercantilist just because unregulated free-trade destroyed the global economy, and took it over a decade to recover
Is there a more meme-tier economic philosophy? It's just common sense to buy finished goods from the country that can make them at the highest quality and cheapest cost.
If Mexico can make better cars than the US, at once third the cost; Americans should buy Mexican cars, and allow American car manufactures to find new jobs.
If China can make better and cheaper missile defense systems than the US, it just makes more sense to buy from them; letting US engineers find new jobs.

>Sraffa
>hated Italian cultural hegemony, communist "intellectual" who worked to undermine Italian commerce and culture
>Sraffa was born in Turin, Italy, to Angelo Sraffa (1865–1937) and Irma Sraffa (née Tivoli) (1873–1949) a wealthy Italian Jewish couple.
What a shocker
>Gramsci
>literally an Albanian living in Italy
>As a boy, Gramsci suffered from health problems, particularly a malformation of the spine that stunted his growth (his adult height was less than 5 feet)
Mussolini should have killed them both.

Sorry, this thread is about intellectual achievements, not things that trigger you (although the first part about sraffa is bullshit anyway).

Yea anon, worship your communist Jew and manlet Albanian and call anyone who derides it an anti-intellectual.

Has any Catholic, in defense of the Filioque, been able to rebut Mystagogy of the Holy Spirit, by Photius? If the Spirit is produced by the Father's essence (the Catholic position, hence the Filioque), rather than his person (as the Orthodox maintain), then the Spirit would procede from himself (unless his essence is not the Father's)

Why dont you ask on a Catholic apologetics forum rather than making a post here every day about the filioque?
I think we both know your probably not going to find someone who is both Catholic and familiar with that text here.
>>
>>2753724
Because it's Constantine, who feels compelled to showcase Eastern Orthodoxy on a Sudanese fish slapping forum. Anywhere you don't have a culture of anonymity, his annoying pretentiousness will quickly make him a pariah.
>>
>>2753724
Well, you don't have to have read the work to get the premise, which I iterated in the OP. In fact, because it is both exhaustingly polemical and academic, you're probably better off with just the premise. And I was mainly asking for works that rebut it, rather than for Catholics here to.

Why is it called the dark ages if only rome fell? Weren't the germanic barbarians and other northern europeans already like that? Or were they also more advanced societies that happened to fall coinciding with 476?

It was a dark age only in Roman territories. And the dark age was brief - it did not last the entire middle ages.
>>
it is used in the context of the region it is in, no one ever claimed Constantinople was in a dark age
>>
>>2753452
It's called the dark ages because there is a noticeable lack of primary sources from this era. The fall of The western Roman is just used an convenient if inaccurate start date

I've seen like two threads about this irrelevant pagan cult and both turned into a shitflinging contest between christfags and what I assume diaspora iranian LARPers about "muh duality" and "who copied who".
It was fun until I realized how sad both sides were, habibi.

Yes. Not it's final stage though. "Final stage" communism is oxymoronic though because people will never throw off all their identities in favor of a worldwide classless society.

Nope
Every attempt to achieve it only end in disaster, its not even worth it
Why did Westerners stop wearing traditional clothing? Whenever I see Indians or Mid easterners they usually utilize traditional and modern clothing. I never see Westerners wearing traditional clothes just because they feel like it.

Suits and ball gowns are basically the equivalent of whatever you're thinking of. Indians and Middle Easterners aren't actually wearing traditional clothing so much as the popular fashions of more recent political classes.
>>
>>2753295 oddly enough answer is what is fashionable at the time does take traditional garb into account in Middle Eastern areas that older style of dress is fashionable

What long-term economic strategy do anarchists have after 'authority' is defeated, what about security ( I've watched the walking dead!!).
No bait; just curious
