The problem of the PPP is not one of hegemony

Dear Editor,
With reference to Freddie Kissoon’s column, ‘Is there an elected dictatorship in Guyana?’ KN, 29.4.08, Mr Kissoon employs the work of Friedrich, Machiavelli and Gramsci to suggest that there is an “elected dictatorship” in Guyana.

While I again applaud Kissoon’s attempt to draw on political theory in the analysis of Guyana’s state-society relations, I am disappointed that Mr Kissoon has done so improperly.
