This book explores whether the ideology of communism was doomed to
failure due to psychological rather than structural flaws. Does
communism fail because there is not enough individual incentive and
does it discourage psychological ownership? If so, does it produce
learned helplessness and therefore empower evil? This book
considers such questions, both with respect to how communism
actually functioned and how it could have functioned using examples
from Eastern Europe and the USSR itself during the 20th century. It
reviews both the ideology of communism and its history, as well as
the basic but difficult question of how one might decide whether an
economic system can be defined as successful or not.
