Licheaua este o figura eterna a umanitatii. Aceste pagini nu reprezinta insa un portret al lichelei universale, ci spectacolul intruparii ei in perioada numita "comunism". Licheaua care a facut cu putinta comunismul are desigur o multime din trasaturile lichelei eterne. Cu toate acestea, ceva o distinge de toate lichelele lumii: puterea ei de a se organiza si de a transforma lichelismul in regula a lumii si sistem.
