Читать книгу Democracy, Plan, and Market: Yakov Kronrod's Political Economy of Socialism - David Mandel - Страница 5

This book would not have been possible without the many discussions I had over the course of summer evenings in Moscow with Boris Rakitskii. Boris had been a junior researcher in Kronrod’s theoretical section of the Institute of Economics in the 1960s. He later became one of three economists whose work it was mandatory to criticize by anyone wishing to defend an academic thesis in political economy.

Boris, and his wife, Galina, to whom this book is dedicated, have been inspiring models of intellectual and political commitment and honesty.
