This book explores how the concept of "competition", which is usually associated with market economies, operated under state socialism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, where the socialist system, based on command economic planning and state-centred control over society, was supposed to emphasise "co-operation", rather than competitive mechanisms. The book shows how the gradual adoption and adaptation of Western practices led to the emergence of more open competitiveness in socialist society and the huge effect of increasing competition on socialist psychology.
