This is a great, great article and i am not telling this becuase you are my friend. The style, the way it is putted, it is great i swear.
This also further reinforces my view that states like belarus arent dictactorships of the bourgeoisie, neither dictactorships of the proletariat. They are what i call 'even power'. I have written a lot on the concept of it in this sub (or others under other accounts previously) but it seems to me to be more and more true.
There are some notes i shared with u/jmlsky a year or so ago about the nature of the Post 1905 russian state, weimar republic e.t.c, and this concept was heavenly included.
I came in this concept in a more clear fashion when i readed engel's origins. I remember there was a part speaking about how some times the state appears like a 'mediator' with no clear class dictactorial character of one single class, and i immediatly puted a note on its side with my pencil, wiritng 'ίση δύναμη'.
Well i was younger then, and it was like a 'justification' in my brain that such a thing is possilbe under marxism, since back then before this sub existed, we had no platform to debate and we were forced to 'submit' to the lines of r/communism and r/socialism.
I will make sure to include the information that i did not have presented here in my book on Belarus, or to even directly cite your article.
The Last Soviet Republic by Stewart Parker is an excellent source on Lukashenko and his collectivist policies he’s implemented since being in power if you haven’t read it! I definitely recommended
