This book explores how the concept of "competition", which is
usually associated with market economies, operated under state
socialism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, where the
socialist system, based on command economic planning and
state-centred control over society, was supposed to emphasise
"co-operation", rather than competitive mechanisms. The book
considers competition in a wider range of industries and social
fields across the Soviet bloc, and shows how the gradual adoption
and adaptation of Western practices led to the emergence of more
open competitiveness in socialist society. The book includes
discussion of the state's view of competition, and focuses
especially on how competition operated at the grassroots level. It
covers politico-economic reforms and their impact, both overall and
at the enterprise level; competition in the cultural sphere; and
the huge effect of increasing competition on socialist ways of
thinking.
