Chapter 6 in Why did the Socialist System Collapse in Central and Eastern European Countries?, 1995, pp 89-114 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The socialist system cannot be understood unless we know its political structure. Since this book is intended to focus primarily on the economic causes of the breakdown of socialism, I only want to show some of the political aspects which were responsible for the failure of the socialist system. To this end it is important to discuss the political system briefly. But before doing so I would like to mention the views of Marx on this topic.
