That is the title of Guinevere Nell's forthcoming book on the Soviet experience. Nell has been a frequent commentator on the blog, and spent some quality time studying and interacting with many of us at GMU and at various seminars, etc. She has a very unique educational background and I would describe her as an intellectual pit-bull. She tenaciously pursues her intellectual passions and her research projects. So I am very excited to read her book on this subject --- which if I am reading Facebook correctly, was sent to the publishers and will be out soon. This is a research topic that I care deeply about, and I am very anxious to see what she has dug up in her studies, and how she develops her argument (which I expect to be one that I am in complete sympathy with, though I do also expect to learn much from what she has done with the argument in terms of new theoretical twists and new empirical applications).
Congratulations Guinevere.
Thanks Pete!
You are reading Facebook correctly. I sent the final manuscript to my publisher today to go to layout. I will keep you updated, and let you know when advance copies and things like that are ready!

liberty,
Make sure that Roger Koppl gets a copy so that it can get reviewed in JEBO. Heck, maybe he'lll ask me to do it, :-).
