A landmark work in Soviet economic studies, Political Economy and Soviet Socialism presents a rigorous and incisive analysis of the theoretical and practical dimensions of socialist economic thought as applied in the USSR. Alec Nove, one of the twentieth century's foremost authorities on the Soviet economy, argues that orthodox Marxist economic theory was frequently at odds with the realities of Soviet planning and governance. Drawing on decades of scholarship, the collection chronicles the ideological tensions, policy contradictions, and institutional failures that shaped the Soviet economic system. Written with scholarly authority yet accessible clarity, it remains an essential text for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of political ideology and economic organisation in the communist world.
