For instance, he wrote that if he could meet anyone in the world, and a share a dinner with them, it would be Henry Kissinger.

We knew one another, of course, and I think of him as a friend, though I have not seen him in some time. I tell some stories about Rick in my Autobiography. He and his colleague, Steve Resnick, have created a flourishing school of Marxian thought, with a journal, doctoral students, an annual conference, and many publications.Robert Paul Wolffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11970360952872431856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687347459208158501.post-6505664920622166482012-03-15T07:06:09.117-04:002012-03-15T07:06:09.117-04:00Professor, there is a Marxist economist who I have...Professor, there is a Marxist economist who I have become intrigued with. Although I have no idea if the gentleman is related to you, he is also a Professor Wolff. Any comments on his economic theories? This link provides his latest "economic update" that is regularly featured on the blog. He does seem to have a fairly consistent following. Perhaps he has a rather large ego, his site suggests so, but I don't necessarily find that as a fault. You can also find his profile on Wikipedia (link below the first one to his site).<br /><br />http://rdwolff.com/content/global-capitalism-monthly-update-discussion-march-2012<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_D._WolffSuperfluous Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14935534194246434873noreply@blogger.com
