Communist Political Evolution

First Published in 1992. The present collection of essays brings together the concepts of change and development, by using the concept of evolution to explore various forms of change in the communist and 'post-communist’ world. The author’s experience of living in the provinces of the Soviet Union later persuaded them of the inappropriateness of at least a rigid application of the concept of totalitarianism. This title will also satiate the further interest of the interaction between 'capitalism’ (or liberal democracy) and 'communism’, particularly the impact of capitalism’s technical innovations on some of communism’s basic principles of rule.
