TOPICS IN TRADE COORDINATION OF PLANNED ECONOMICS
Author: Alfred ZaubermanThe Planned Economies and International Economic Organizations
Author: Jozef M. BrabantPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521383509
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This is the first comprehensive study of the role of socialist countries within the international economic order. The author presents an overview of the emergence of the postwar economic order and examines the key features of three kinds of centrally planned economies. He then analyzes the role of financial frameworks and the international trade system in ensuring smooth economic relations among market-type economies and he details the problems of associating typical CPEs within them. Finally Jozef van Brabant explores the possibility of reconstituting a multilateral economic order that can provide greater security, predictability, stability and reliability in international economic relations. The Planned Economies and International Economic Organizations is written at a time when the Soviet Union and other centrally planned economies are seeking closer links with the mainstream world economy. It will therefore be of interest to governments and institutional economists as well as to students and specialists of Soviet and East European studies, international relations and comparative economics.

The People's Republic of Walmart
Author: Leigh PhillipsPublisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 178663516X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Are multi-national corporations like Walmart and Amazon laying the groundwork for international socialism? For the left and the right, major multinational companies are held up as the ultimate expressions of free-market capitalism. Their remarkable success appears to vindicate the old idea that modern society is too complex to be subjected to a plan. And yet, as Leigh Phillips and Michal Rozworski argue, much of the economy of the West is centrally planned at present. Not only is planning on vast scales possible, we already have it and it works. The real question is whether planning can be democratic. Can it be transformed to work for us? An engaging, polemical romp through economic theory, computational complexity, and the history of planning, The People’s Republic of Walmart revives the conversation about how society can extend democratic decision-making to all economic matters. With the advances in information technology in recent decades and the emergence of globe-straddling collective enterprises, democratic planning in the interest of all humanity is more important and closer to attainment than ever before.
Interactions Between the Planner, Managers and Workers in Centrally Planned Economies

ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
The coordination of decision making has always been an important topic for politicians, business people, and scientists alike. The experiment in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe to build a centrally planned economy provides an excellent example to study the possibilities and limitations of planned coordination. In this study, the author focuses on the interaction between several actors in a centrally planned economy, stressing the dominant position of the planner. An historical essay on the organization of production in the Soviet Union is combined with several theoretical insights. This forms the basis for the argument that the planner's reluctance to take the preferences and the strategies of others in society are essential explaining why the socialist experiment failed.
