Self Analysis versus Self Criticism

I prefer the term self analysis to self criticism as it is more accurate and less accusatory. Analysis is to break an object down into it's constituent elements. A criticism is to attack something as wrong. To criticize is "to find faults with". It is not a neutral term. Analysis is a neutral term and will result in better self examination. Also someone with proper training needs to analyze and present the therapeutic functions of self criticism and integrate that into the theory of s.c. I prefer the term self analysis.

This is a brief self analysis of my work.

A useful distinction can be made here between cardinal points and resolutions of the party congress. As far as I can see my work has never violated any party resolution. I am certain my work has never violated any a cardinal principle. In fact my work makes a point of directing attention to the labor aristocracy thesis, the anti-war struggle, the struggle for ward Churchill and the struggles against revisionism and capitalist restoration. I invite anyone to point out where my work is going against party resolutions or cardinal principles.
