Abstract

Summary Development problems of labour-managed market economies with a ‘mixed’ agricultural structure consisting of large labour-managed farms and small family farms are discussed. It will be shown that, especially in early developmentstages, such a structure results in the development of a dual structure which is at least as rigid as that of ‘capitalistic’ market economies in which the industrial sector and the larger farms are based on the employment of wagelabour. In the analysis some basic principles of general economic theory are applied to the structure of mixed market economies. The article also investigates the development of the agricultural sector in Yugoslavia which is the only country with a long experience of this kind of structure.
