Market Socialism

the long version

Aside from Post Modernism, probably the hottest topic today among socialist scholars world-wide is Market Socialism. What exactly is Market Socialism? Which of our current problems would it solve, which leave untouched? How would it come about? What is its relation to capitalism? How does it compare with more traditional visions of socialism? What do other socialists find lacking in it, and what do they propose instead? In the present volume, four leading socialist scholars, who have been deeply involved in this debate - two for, two against - give their answers to these questions.
