Studies in the development of the national economy of the USSR

These studies are the result of research in the development of the National Economy of the U. S. S. R. which was carried out by me under the auspices of the National Institute for Economic and Social Research during 1940 and 1941. Every chapter consists of two parts: a general description of the peculiarities of the Soviet System, its forms of organisation and the specific conditions under which the development takes place, and a special part which Lives an analysis of the current events. This analysis is extended up to 1941, and thus gives information about current events which took place in the economic life of the U. S. S. R. on the eve of the German attack on the U. S. S. R. The chapter about internal trade is somewhat differently constructed. It contains a brief historical summry survey of the development of internal trade during the whole period of 1918 to 1941. The main processes of the transition from the competitve to the State system of organising the National Economy were reflected on the internal market. On the internal market State planning intervention in the economic life of the country collided with the economic activity of the population itself; this very often forced the Government to change its economic policy or the form of its application. Consequently I find it necessary, in the analysis of the development of internal trade, to gibe a brief historical summary survey and to let it precede all the other chapters. A considerable part of these studies was published in the following journals: " The Economic Journal", "Economica", Royal Economic Society Memoranda and in London and Cambridge Economic Service Bulletins.
