@SchwarzesPCSchaf its a communist term. Marx, the guy who originally coined the theory of communism, is the man who is well known for the founder of communism. However, many say that "Marx communism" is very hard to achieve, because it is based on philosophical basis, rather than political or practical. To fill the need for a form of communism that can actually be applied to countries, Lenin created his own form of communism. His phrase means how Leninist communist is more common than marx

Might somebody be able to explain what exactly he means at 6:30 by "Once again Lenin has trumped Marx"? It seams to me as he's saying something in riddles there.

911 was an effect, not a cause. The cause of the blowback of 911 was US imperialist meddling, covertly or overtly, in the middle east and elsewhere in the world especially post ww2. And that endgame for the military/corporate complex is the thirdworldization of all resource rich countries so we can get their resources cheap while the common people in these countries suffer. This poor excuse for a political scientist is in reality a vicarious warrior, cheer-leading, fascist, etc is Jowitt

Mr..Ken supported war on Iraq!!! and he had 2 reason , it is petty for the social scientist to have very cheap and nationalist argument ,He forgot that the mass which war created to Iraqs and US soldiers , that is 100% worse than Saddams, regimes . Mr Ken is a big shame for being scholar or intellectual ............

This guy is spot on. I mean Bulls eye! It is too bad that "most" ppl in the country would not understand Ken's points. And I dare to say "Most" of our elected officials. The really wonderful thing about this lecture is that it conveys the way that we should be handling our foreign policy with out sounding like any of the current radical and extremist views, which happen to echo the same core basics of anti-globalization

Interesting point that long wars are more likely to generate new institutions.
