The Crisis of Socialism

Author

Abstract

In my book entitled Socialism, Economic Calculation and Entrepreneurship I explain in theoretical terms what socialism is and why it is an intellectual error, a scientific impossibility, why the socialism which still exists, despite the fall of the Berlin Wall, in the form of economic interventionism in Western countries is the main source of the tensions and conflicts we experience nowadays.
