Hi,

let me just add to the excellent list:

- Naum Jasny's little book: "Soviet Economists of the twenties, Names to be remembered" - since it gives a "feeling" of the NEP period - the people and the ideas - all forgotten now. But the bolsheviks almost had no economists, so it was the mensheviks that developed the NEP system.

- Trotsky's "Soviet Economy in Danger" - and his and the other leading bolshe/mensheviks articles on Soviet Economy.

Regards
Anders Ekeland
