    The problem with Hoxhaists is the same as the problem with Maoists - both Mao and Hoxha were by and large correct in what they wrote and did, and in the political positions they adopted during their lifetimes, but their modern day “followers” do not understand that correct conclusions drawn under one set of material and political circumstances do not necessarily apply to an entirely different set of conditions. By being overly dogmatic (doing precisely what Mao warned not to do with “book worship”) and failing to apply a proper dialectical materialist analysis to the conditions of today they unfortunately tarnish the image of their namesake by association.
