520 | 1 | |a "The Rise and Fall of the Soviet Economy draws on personal experience and literary sources, including memoirs, as well as available economic data and analyses, to illustrate the reality of everyday life and of economic policy making in the post-war Soviet Union. The author argues that the Soviet economic system was capable of producing economic growth, and for most of its existence it did exhibit growth. But it revealed over time a key weakness compared with capitalism: a systemic inability to cope with technological change, which doomed the Soviet economy in the long-run. Moreover, 'success' in partially liberalising Soviet society, so that terror receded into the background, reduced the effectiveness of a top-down economic system that relied on authority and obedience."--Jacket. | |
