[Marxism] A pressing question for comrades

[David Thorstad]

As an editor, this word has not yet cropped up, but because the "y" 
sound is already in Kautsky's name, the addition of an "i" would seem 
highly problematic. How would it be pronounced? With two "i" sounds ("y" 
and "i")? That is unfelicitous, to say the least. To say that the two 
sounds represented by the two letters would elide is only evading the 
question. So, I would go with "Kautskyan"; or "Kautskyist"; or "Kautskyoid."
