Abstract
This article takes a general view of perestroika and analyzes certain possible changes in the Soviet Constitution. The recent struggle in Soviet society is viewed as competition between a previous tendency to unify social relations and recent demands for democratic pluralism in society. Further, the author discusses possible changes in the Soviet Constitution that could be brought about by perestroika. The Soviet Constitution must provide a juridical definition of socialism if the Soviet Union is to continue development of a socialist democracy. Finally, the author formulates a model juridical definition of socialism, which sets forth a socialism of rights and not a socialism of restrictions.
