10 Paruchuri Hanumantha Rao (I.M. Sharma) (2015) 1 LAW its management at the ground level though Tammareddy Krishnamurthy was the designated Manager. So I resigned from Vishalandhra, came to Hyderabad to look after the construction and running of Sarathi Studio. The decision was taken in 1957 and I think by 1962 or so we had produced about 30 films in the Studio. We had a mind to encourage new faces to act as heroes and heroines in progressive type of films, which were to be made at a low budget. For this purpose we used to go to different colleges in the Twin Cities and attend their cultural functions, interact with the cultural troupes in the city, etc. to identify potential talents. We had produced a good film Maa Inti Mahalakshmi in the direction of which I also played a part. I attended the Nizam College Annual Day functions in search of new faces. We brought Prabhakar Reddy into the film industry. Dasarathi Krishnamacharya, the famous poet, was also brought into the cine field and he wrote some very good songs. Under the banner of Navayuga Pictures many good films were made. Later I quit from the cine field and started Pragati Press on 1 September 1962 in a small way. It was a letter composing and treadle printing press with a handful of workers and in the initial days my brother-in-law Nilakantheswar Rao contributed much in its management. This enterprise proved very lucky for us and by the dint of hard work and innovative methods we developed it bit by bit over the decades and now it is one of the best printing presses in entire Asia. Our press has now the latest technology at its command and my two sons, Narendra and Mahendra, the new generation boys, have taken the press to unprecedented heights. Now we are participating in exhibitions all over the world and have got orders from various places in the world. We use Internet frequently in our dealings. Punctuality, promptitude and neat and exquisite printing are our hallmarks and the one thing, which all customers can find in us, is RELIANCE. They can give us a job and forget about it. It will be carried out according to schedule and to their satisfaction and the product would reach them in time, if necessary at their doorstep. And the cost we charge is quite reasonable too. Recently we had participated in a printing exhibition in America in which our Stall became a cynosure. But for the 9-11 terror incident, which occurred at that time resulting in quick disbanding of the Exhibition, we could have secured a number of orders even from USA. I never imagined that our Press would grow to such great heights and I am really proud of it – especially of my two sons and the faithful and hardworking staff and workers. Earning money has never been my main consideration. What I always desired was satisfaction from success of my plans and toil. What I could not achieve in the political field I did achieve in the printing field. I know C.K. Narayana Reddy very well and I played a prominent part in his marriage in arranging him a match - Jayaprada, a girl related to us. Tapi Dharma Rao was the elder who performed their marriage. C.K. too entered the printing field round around the same time (as we did) but was not successful. But he published some good books and contributed to the success of the Hyderabad Book Trust, which is now running fairly well. I also know Ramoji Rao well all through his days of thick and thin and have always been helpful to him, especially his Eenadu. Even now I have good rapport with him. I still believe in the ideal and ideology of Socialism and think there is no better alternative to it for human welfare. I am not satisfied with the policies and working of the various communist parties and groups though. I desire a unity and vigour in the communist movement in our country. * * * * * Read and subscribe to: Analytical MONTHLY REVIEW Editor: SUBHAS AIKAT Annual subscription : Rs. 350/- Contact for details: CORNERSTONE PUBLICATIONS, Ramesh Dutta Sarani, P.O.

A law may be formal or informal. An informal law may be an outcome of customs and traditions, accepted by the society and followed by the people – not enforced by a formal authority from above but from within. If any one violates the informal law he may be outcast. This fear of ostracization itself has the force of enforcement. On the other hand, the formal law is the official recognition of a social fact, enacted by a legislature and enforced by the state apparatus – the courts and the police. Therefore, the existence of a state becomes a prerequisite for the being and enforcement of law. Origin of the State: In the prehistory of mankind, some thousands of years before the Christian era, there existed what can be called a primitive communist society. In this society, land and other means of production were held in common; therefore, collective labor was applied in production, and the produce was shared by the families according to their needs. But due to the crude nature of the instruments of production, and labor, the production was very low – often insufficient to sustain life even. Hunger prevailed and population began to decline. At this juncture, some families had, by force or connivance, ‘stole’ the common property and transformed it into their private domain. Thus a new society was born – it was a slave society in which private property was the [all-embracing] economic base [– so much so that slave laborers were mere chattel of the slave-owners]. As such, Pierre Joseph Proudhon had aptly remarked: “Property is theft – but it gives power.” 1 ♣ Sri V.V. Reddy, Retd. Professor of Economics, REC {now NIT}, Warangal; duly edited; emphases in bold ours - IMS. 1 Pierre-Joseph Proudhon (15 January 1809 – 19 January 1865), a French politician, founder of mutualist philosophy, probably the first person to declare himself an anarchist and so considered by many as ‘father of anarchism’, a member of the French Parliament after the 1848 revolution, thereafter referred to himself as a federalist. A HISTORICAL VIEW OF LAW - V.V. Reddy ♣ When property was monopolized by some, it meant others were denied of it. Therefore, slave society was split into have-nots – the slaves, and haves – the slave-masters; or, to put in another way, into antagonistic classes. In order to keep the slaves languishing in slavery, a coercive apparatus had become necessary. This apparatus came to be known as the State, with functions to safeguard the interests of the entire propertied i.e. the slave masters. 2 A Greek philosopher by name Cleon (400 B.C.) is said to have defined: “Democracy is of the people, by the people and for the people.” 3 But in Greco-Roman societies by ‘people’ were meant only the ‘citizens’ i.e. the slave-masters, for slaves were only chattel to serve their masters. Aristotle (B.C. 384-322), considered a genius of the ancient world, wrote: “For that some should rule and others be ruled is a thing not only necessary, but expedient; from the hour of their birth, some are marked out for subjection, others for rule…” 4 As such the rulers have a self-interest His bitter comment on private property – ‘Property is theft!’ – Louis Blanc claimed, and Marx repeated, was taken from J.P. Brissot de Warville, a Girondin during the Great French Revolution. It is noteworthy that Proudhon himself stated: “Property is theft! That is the war-cry of ’93!” and then said: “Property is Robbery!” However, it is undisputed that young Marx did greatly admire Proudhon and his seminal work ‘What is Property?’, and commended – “Not only does Proudhon write in the interest of the proletarians, he is himself a proletarian, an ouvrier. His work is a scientific manifesto of the French proletariat” – though later he disagreed with Proudhon's anarchism and published caustic criticisms of Proudhon - he wrote The Poverty of Philosophy in refutation of Proudhon's The Philosophy of Poverty. 2 Frederick Engels, The Origin of Family, Private Property and the State, 1894. 3 A.
