Socialism - Ludwig von Mises - Bog

Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis is a book written by Ludwig Von Mises in 1951. The book provides a critical analysis of socialism, a political and economic system that advocates for the collective ownership of the means of production and distribution of goods and services. Mises argues that socialism is inherently flawed and cannot work in practice because it ignores the fundamental principles of economics and human behavior. The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines the economic aspects of socialism, including the problems of economic calculation, the role of prices in a market economy, and the incentives that drive economic activity. Mises argues that socialism cannot allocate resources efficiently because it lacks a price system that reflects the true value of goods and services. The second part of the book focuses on the sociological aspects of socialism, including its impact on individual freedom, creativity, and innovation. Mises argues that socialism undermines individual initiative and creativity because it eliminates the incentives that drive innovation and progress. Throughout the book, Mises provides a detailed critique of socialism and argues that it is a fundamentally flawed system that cannot achieve its stated goals. He also provides an alternative vision of a free-market economy based on individual freedom, private property, and voluntary exchange. Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis is considered a classic work of economic and political theory and has had a significant impact on the development of modern libertarian and conservative thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
