Opis

“Growth, Shortage and Efficiency: A Macrodynamic Model of the Socialist Economy” by János Kornai presents a pioneering analysis of the functioning of socialist economies. Kornai examines the structural causes of chronic shortages, inefficiencies, and growth patterns within centrally planned systems, introducing a macrodynamic model that links production, consumption, and resource allocation. The book combines rigorous theoretical modeling with empirical observations, offering deep insights into the systemic challenges of socialism and the mechanisms behind persistent scarcity. It remains a seminal work for economists, policymakers, and scholars studying economic systems, planning, and institutional efficiency.
