To what extent did theories of optimality and techniques for optimization improve economic allocation under Communist rule? The basic ideas turned out to have little practical application–under Communism, at least. Yet, at the time, the idea of an optimally planned Socialist economy attracted huge attention and intellectual efforts from East Germany and other Central and Eastern European countries to Russia and China. What was it all about? This excellent collection provides many fascinating insights from a nearly forgotten chapter in the economic thought and history of eight Communist countries. There are important lessons for public policy everywhere.
