Book Market and Plan under Socialism

Download or read book Market and Plan under Socialism written by Jan S. Prybyla and published by Hoover Press. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume the author provides an analysis of the centrally planned, socialist state economies and their common percentage in the Stalinist Plan introduced in the Soviet Union in the late 1920s. Prybyla first explores the "neoclassical" plan in two variants (conservative and liberal), the "radical" plan (Maoplan), and the Yugoslav experiment (neomarket Yugoplan). He then examines specific countries as their governments search for alternative solutions to the economic problems that plague them. His dynamic presentation of the economic models clearly shows the transformation of the original Stalinist model, reveals the obstacles to reform created by the structural problems that exist within these economies, and demonstrates that inherent deficiencies within the systems must, in time, affect growth and balance.

Book excerpt: Práce analyzuje zjednodušenou koncepci ekonomické teorie a praxe, většinou realizovanou v socialistických státech. Podle ní tvoří tržní vztahy formální a omezený proces v plánované ekonomii. V protikladu k této koncepci ukazuje objektivní potřebu tržních vztahů v rámci socialistického plánování. Dovozuje, že trh zajišťuje optimální ekonomický růst. První kapitola jednak probírá vývoj socialistické komodity a finanční teorie, jednak sleduje vývoj čs. ekonomie po druhé světové válce. Druhá uvádí teoretické závěry o plánování a trhu v socialismu a vysvětluje změnu ústředního plánování na plánování makroekonomické. Třetí a čtvrtá kapitola se zabývají specifickými rysy stanovení cen v socialistickém hospodářství a funkcí peněz v rámci jednoty trhu a plánu.

Book The People s Republic of Walmart

Download or read book The People s Republic of Walmart written by Leigh Phillips and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are multi-national corporations like Walmart and Amazon laying the groundwork for international socialism? For the left and the right, major multinational companies are held up as the ultimate expressions of free-market capitalism. Their remarkable success appears to vindicate the old idea that modern society is too complex to be subjected to a plan. And yet, as Leigh Phillips and Michal Rozworski argue, much of the economy of the West is centrally planned at present. Not only is planning on vast scales possible, we already have it and it works. The real question is whether planning can be democratic. Can it be transformed to work for us? An engaging, polemical romp through economic theory, computational complexity, and the history of planning, The People’s Republic of Walmart revives the conversation about how society can extend democratic decision-making to all economic matters. With the advances in information technology in recent decades and the emergence of globe-straddling collective enterprises, democratic planning in the interest of all humanity is more important and closer to attainment than ever before.

Book Socialist Planning

Download or read book Socialist Planning written by Michael Ellman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Socialist planning played an enormous role in the economic and political history of the twentieth century. Beginning in the USSR it spread round the world. It influenced economic institutions and economic policy in countries as varied as Bulgaria, USA, China, Japan, India, Poland and France. How did it work? What were its weaknesses and strengths? What is its legacy for the twenty-first century? Now in its third edition, this textbook is fully updated to cover the findings of the period since the collapse of the USSR. It provides an overview of socialist planning, explains the underlying theory and its limitations, looks at its implementation in various sectors of the economy, and places developments in their historical context. A new chapter analyses how planning worked in the defence-industrial complex. This book is an ideal text for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in comparative economic systems and twentieth-century economic history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of planning prompted some of the fiercest debate in mid-twentieth century economics.

Part 2 discusses problems of economic planning both in relation to political economy on the practice of planning and with the application of the theory of value to the conditions of a centrally directed economy. Part 3 examines the nature of economics.

Book The Economics of Socialism After World War Two

Download or read book The Economics of Socialism After World War Two written by J. Wilczynski and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most comprehensive and contemporary source available on socialist economic systems, this book employs economic data from eight East European countries and Russia to provide readers with a thorough, accurate picture of formerly Communist economies. J. Wilczynski carefully analyzes the major focal points of socialistic economics: planning and market, profit, production and growth, accumulation, consumption, labor, land, pricing, money and banking, fiscal policy and control, domestic and foreign trade, and international economics. The treatment of the subject is objective and constructive; when comparisons are made with capitalist economies both the strengths and weaknesses of socialism are brought out. This is not, however, a book on comparative economic systems but rather a complete discourse on the actual principles of socialist economics. Controversial issues such as the role of planning and the market, profit, rates of growth, the consumer's place, labor incentives, pricing, and controls are particularly well done. This book can be used as a guide to the economics of formerly communist regimes and as text for courses in developmental economics and comparative economic systems. It is well written by a scholar intimate with the plans, policies, and failures of communist economies from the close of The Second World War to the demise of Communist rule in Eastern Europe. J. Wilczynski (1922-1984) was senior lecturer in Economics at the Royal Military College of Australia, Duntroon, Canberra. His published works include articles in American, Australian, British, Indian, Italian, and Norwegian journals. Two of his books are From Lenin to Walesa and Beyond: Trade Unions and Strikes under Socialist Economic Planning in Evolution and Profit, Risk and Incentives under Socialist Economic Planning.

Book Socialist Economic Development in the 21st Century

Download or read book Socialist Economic Development in the 21st Century written by Alberto Gabriele and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a hundred years after the first socialist revolution broke the global monopoly of capitalism, a new class of socialist-oriented socioeconomic development is coming to the fore. Capitalism is still dominant worldwide, although its hegemony is no longer undisputed, and humankind is now faced with a key existential challenge. This book proposes an alternative path to overcoming the worldwide crisis of globalized capitalism. It offers a novel, balanced and historically rooted interpretation of the successes and failures of socialist economic construction throughout the last century. The authors apply a multidisciplinary, holistic and purpose-based methodology to draw basic lessons from stylized facts, emerging in different areas of knowledge, ranging from political economy to biology, and from key national socioeconomic experiences, with a particular focus on China. The book is divided into three parts. The first is mainly theoretical and general in nature, identifying the major contributions bequeathed by the hard sciences to their social counterparts. Consistent with these findings, the authors offer a stylized interpretation of the contemporary state-of-the-art of the debate on the core concepts of economic science and advance a few elementary theories about what socialism in the 21st century could look like. The second and third parts analyze and discusses the core features of a few select experiences, which have evolved in certain countries since 1917, some of which are still unfolding. The book will find an audience among academics, researchers and students in the fields of economics, political science, history, and geography, as well as, policy makers, particularly in developing countries.

Book excerpt: The theory of international economic order is concerned with two basically different types of human relationships: those that belong to the private sphere of the individual and which are amenable to the rule of law (the "dominium") and those that are backed by sovereign national power (the "imperium").
