Focusing on socialism as it has been practised in recent years,
this text examines the serious set-backs that face its existence,
particularly following events in Eastern Europe. The author argues
that it is totalitarianism which is being rejected and not
socialism as it was originally conceived. Instead of providing
ordinary people, "the workers", with a larger share in economic
decision-making, the socialist models have concentrated both
economic and political power in the hands of the State, developing
a form of state socialism. This second edition re-considers the
arguments of the first text, and assesses the decisive swing to the
right which has marked the political arena of the 1980s.;The
author, Evan Luard, has published a number of titles, many for
Macmillan. These include "Conflict and Peace in the Modern
International System", "The United Nations: How It Works and What
It Does", "The Management of the World Economy", "International
Agencies: The Emerging Framework of Interdependence" and
"International Society".
