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.
