Socialist Planning
Socialist Planning Socialist planning played an enormous role in the economic and political history of the twentieth century. Beginning in the USSR it spread round the world. It influenced economic institutions and economic policy in countries as varied as Bulgaria, USA, China, Japan, India, Poland and France. How did it work? What were its weaknesses and strengths? What is its legacy for the twenty-first century? Now in its third edition, this textbook is fully updated to cover the findings of the period since the collapse of the USSR. It provides an overview of socialist planning, explains the underlying theory and its limitations, looks at its implementation in various sectors of the economy, and places developments in their historical context. A new chap- ter analyses how planning worked in the defence–industry complex. This book is an ideal text for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in comparative economic systems and twentieth-century economic history. michael ellman is Emeritus Professor in the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands. He is the author, co- author and editor of numerous books and articles on the Soviet and Russian economies, on transition economics, and on Soviet economic and political history. In 1998, he was awarded the Kondratieff prize for his ‘contributions to the development of the social sciences’.

ISBN: 978-1-69157-995-2 Created with Vellum During his years in power, Mao Zedong initiated three policies which could be described as radical departures from Soviet and Chinese Communist practice: the Hundred Flowers of 1956-1957, the Great Leap Forward 1958-1960, and the Cultural Revolution of 1966-1976. Each was a disaster: the first for the intellectuals, the second for the people, the third for the Party, all three for the country. — RODERICK MACFARQUHAR, THE SECRET SPEECHES OF CHAIRMAN MAO In many ways, [Deng Xiaoping’s] reputation is underestimated: while Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev oversaw the peaceful end of Soviet communist rule and the dismembering of the Soviet empire, he had wanted to keep the Soviet Union in place and reform it. Instead it fell apart; communism lost power—and Russia endured a decade of instability […]. Perhaps the most influential political titan of the late 20th century, Deng succeeded in guiding China towards his vision where his fellow communist leaders failed. — SIMON SEBAG MONTEFIORE, TITANS OF HISTORY CONTENTS Introduction ix 1. -
Library Year in Review 2018 -·
University of Tasmania Library Year in Review 2018 -· . .. .... .. --- ..- ,,/ ';t{ Library year in review 2018 I am pleased to present an overview of the Library’s contribution towards the achievement of the University’s goals in learning, teaching and research. Staff have been the key to our success, and I thank them for their leadership and contribution. Janette Burke, University Librarian Highlights: • The Law Library was flooded in May, with the loss of over 4,000 books and the Law Library and Faculty of Law spaces extensively damaged. Library staff worked in collaboration with student and staff volunteers, Infrastructure Services, Information Technology Services (ITS) and the Faculty to ensure Law students and staff were able to access temporary study spaces and collections. The Library negotiated with publishers to provide interim access to electronic resources where possible to mitigate loss of access to over 26,000 print items that were temporarily moved to offsite store. Temporary study spaces were found for Postgraduates in the Morris Miller Library. In collaboration with staff from the Law Faculty, Library, Uconnect and student representatives, meetings were established to plan for the refurbishment of the Law Library and to replace significant print collections. • A new University Librarian, Janette Burke was appointed and started on 28th May. Janette was interim University Librarian at Monash University and was previously Director at Monash University Library, responsible for information resources, including collections, international partnerships, and systems. Janette has worked at Federation University, University of Wollongong, Central Queensland University and South Australia TAFE in various roles. • The Library was funded for the move and storage of 120,000 items from the Wilmot Store and the merger of the Music and Art Libraries in 2019. -

'Both Stick and Carrot': US Threatens Afghan Taliban With Terrorist List if it Repudiates Promises by Morgan Artvukhina \ US State Department spokesperson Ned Price said Friday that listing the Taliban* as a terrorist organization was one tool in several that Washington could use to lure the Afghan militant group into living up to its promises, which include renouncing terrorism and ending support for terrorist groups. Asked at a Friday press conference about whether the threat of being placed on the State Department's Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO) list was a pressure tool Washington was using to get results from the Taliban, Price responded that it was. “We have a number of tools at our disposal. The Taliban, right now, is a specially designated global terrorist group. They’re on the SDGT designation list. That is one tool. It’s both a stick and ...a carrot, a potential inducement, to induce the Taliban to uphold those basic international norms, the basic rights of its people," Price said. "But the FTO list, other sanctions, that’s one single tool.” The SDGT list, maintained by the US Treasury, is used for applying financial sanctions to groups that frustrate their operations, while the FTO prohibits material support for them and is much higher profile.
