Description
Peter Rutland delves into the intricate dynamics of economic management within the Soviet Union, focusing on the influence of regional and local party organs. Through a thorough examination of these entities, he reveals how their decisions shaped the trajectory of the Soviet economy, particularly during periods of stagnation.
The study not only highlights the internal political mechanisms that governed economic policy at various levels but also sheds light on the often-overlooked interplay between local leadership and central authority. Rutland's insights provide a nuanced understanding of how local politics impacted broader economic outcomes, making this work essential for anyone interested in Soviet history and economic governance.
