More about the book
The exploration of communist policies reveals how they were often sabotaged by unintended consequences and inherent dysfunctions. Drawing on Robert K. Merton's functionalist theory, the book analyzes the complexities and failures within these systems, highlighting the gap between ideology and practical outcomes. Through this lens, it provides a critical examination of the challenges faced by communist regimes and the often-overlooked factors that contributed to their struggles.
