Description
The revolutions that have recently occurred in Eastern Europe have been seen by some as heralding the death of socialism. Evan Luard argues, in this new edition of his book, that those revolutions demonstrated the failure not of socialism, which were never practised in those states, but of state socialism, a perversion of the doctrine which, for nearly a century, has distorted its true meaning in East and West Europe alike.
