Letter to the Editors from the November 1982 issue of the Socialist Standard
Dear Editors,
In the article "Poland is state capitalist", a quotation from a Polish journal is given, indicating the distinction between "state ownership and social ownership of the means of production".
However, our agreement with the Marxian analysis contained in this and other articles published by Jednosc (see Labour Focus on Eastern Europe, winter-spring 1981) should not draw us into the mistaken and unrealistic assumption that such views are widely held in Poland. This was, and unfortunately still is, a minority point of view.
While the article we quoted was re-published in one other workers' journal, other, more forthright articles were not re-printed elsewhere.

An untitled letter in the November 1982 Standard.
The article referred to is from the October 1982 Standard. That article is not on the net . . . yet.
