Abstract

In the 1960s and 1970s, both Robert Linhart and Charles Bettelheim turned to assessing the Soviet New Economic Policy as part of their attempts to theorize a transition to socialism. This essay offers a critical reading of Robert Linhart’s contributions on this subject and compares his approach with Charles Bettelheim’s own positions, including their dialogue that appeared in the journal Communisme in 1977. The essay suggests that a return to these debates is important for any attempt to theorize socialist transition.
