First published in 1985, this book provides a comprehensive
reappraisal of the diverse Communist development strategies that
shaped the twentieth century. Robert Bideleux emphasises the
appalling human and economic costs of the most widely adopted
'Stalinist' strategies of forced industrialisation and rural
collectivisation. He also reconsiders the powerful arguments in
favour of the most feasible and cost-effective alternatives to
Stalinism, including 'village communisms' and 'market socialisms'.
A highly readable and challenging study, this reissue will be of
particular value to students with research interests in Development
Studies, East European History and Politics.
