In this thesis I have attempted to give some indication of the divergence of the theory underlying the Soviet Constitution from the principles of classical Marxism. The scope of this subject is such that each facet with which I have dealt merits further extensive study and analysis, although I would humbly submit that such further consideration would serve only to verify, substantially. the main conclusions which I have reached. The subject of the thesis is dynamic. The period with which I have dealt is too recent and too momentous to permit complete objectivity to be achieved, and I can only express the hope that my dislike of the arbitrary use of power has been tempered by my enthusiasm for economic, social and political experiment based on profound humanitarian motives. The bibliography omits my most important acknowledge, and I therefore take this opportunity of thanking Mr. D. Novak for his invaluable advice and assistance. / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)
