Abstract

This book is a critical assessment of the experience of trying to apply the Soviet model of state socialism in conditions of underdevelopment. It shows that certain tendential 'laws' seem to operate which bring these systems into conditions of crisis, or at least stasis, both economically and politically, and relates these to a basic concept of a 'resource-constrained economy'.
