Capitalism, Socialism and Planning

Summary/Abstract: Discussions among economists about the necessity of radical changing of the fundamental principles of the functioning of economic systems of socialist countries as well as economic reforms which accompanied them have not been caused only by practical necessity and have not exclusively economic importance. It is not accidentally that they are therefore transforming into social reforms which have direct repercussions on the whole direction of development. The essence of economic innovations which consists in the resuscitation of the influence of goods-monetary relations in socialist economy also requires the changing of the economic-political instruments and the changing of the understanding of the functioning of plan in the frame of socialist production. All the mentioned has also immediate importance for the change of political structure which depends directly on its economic basis. Thus it is a question of removing of some long lasting dogmatic fetishisms concerning important economic and political categories and relations. Plan does not depend only on administrative, but also, in the first place, the grade of the planning intervention depends also on the achieved standard of economic development. Hence the author has considered as necessary' that on the basis of the analysis of the fundamental contemporary types of the systems of economic planning and some fundamental thesis, set forth in the discussions about the influence of the law of worth and market in socialism, to show some most important consequences of rejecting of the dogmatic administrative conception of socialist economy upon the changes of political system in the direction of its further democratization.
