In this comprehensive and latest statistical profile of the
membership of the Communist Party during the first half-century of
the Soviet regime, Professor Rigby analyzes the history of party
recruitment and composition. Since the party makes vital
contributions to the performance of several basic tasks within the
Soviet political system, the author interprets his data mainly in
functional terms. He identifies and evaluates the influence of
these functional considerations on recruitment policies and on the
changing patterns of membership, and determines the priorities
assigned to different functions under changing circumstances. T.H.
