More DescriptionThe Economics of Feasible Socialism (1983) was a path-breaking book. It identified a workable socialist programme, achievable in the lifetime of a child born today, that avoids the far-fetched or Utopian assumptions and deformations of actually existing socialism' of the Soviet species. Mindful of the many recent changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, Alec Nove has updated his book to produce a revised second edition. Characteristically readable, controversial and full of insights, The Economics of Feasible Socialism Revisited is essential for anyone concerned with evaluating the relevance of Marxism to contemporary social and economic problems.
