Chapter 3 in Controlling Soviet Labour, 1988, pp 45-70 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract So far, the antagonistic nature of the social relations of production in the USSR have been presented and developed in a theoretical sense only. The concrete expression of these relationships produces a series of interconnected problems. Figure 3.1 attempts to describe these interrelationships and present them in a circular flow diagram. The unbroken lines in the figure represent the direct links between particular problems, whilst the broken lines are an attempt to identify the way in which the problems feed back into other areas. This form of presentation, even though it understates the complexity and linkages involved, is useful for purposes of exposition and provides a framework which will be utilised over the next two chapters to analyse these questions.
