Marxist takes over the WTO

Well blow me down this is true. From this website director general of the World Trade Organization, Pascal Lamy is happy to have himself described as a Marxist. Might not be the most low key way to get his message across. Anyway, if he hadn’t described himself as a Marxist, it would be hard to tell him from a Social Democrat (which he also claims to be). He likes Rawls and doesn’t like the French left calling Rawls a ‘right wing’ philosopher.
