   • 1959 December, G. Khromushin, anonymous translator, “The Bourgeois Revisionist Myth of the ‘Democratization of Capital’”, in Problems of Economics: Selected Articles from Soviet Economics Journals in English Translation, volume II, number 8, New York, N.Y.: International Arts and Sciences Press, →ISSN, →OCLC, pages 56–57:

     The directions followed by the apologists for modern monopoly capitalism are quite varied. An important place therein is occupied by the so-called theory of “democratization of capital.” This theory is by no means a new one. It was advanced by the revisionists at the very dawn of imperialism. Its most complete presentation was that of E[duard] Bernstein in his Herostratically notorious prerequisites for socialism, as V[ladimir] I[lyich] Lenin called them.

     He saw him on TV. The policeman. Harry Hole. Hole was being interviewed because he had hunted down a serial killer in Australia. And Mathias was reminded of Gert Rafto’s advice: ‘Not on my beat.’ He also recalled, however, the satisfaction of having taken the life of the hunter. The feeling of supremacy. The feeling of power. Nothing later had quite compared with the murder of the police officer. And this Herostratically famous Hole appeared to have something of Rafto about him, some of the same offhandedness and anger.
