Book Description: U.S.A / Cornell University Press, 1996. Soft cover. Book Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Focusing on the different economic and bureaucratic cultures within the industrial system, Shearer reconstructs the debate in 1928 and 1929 over administrative, financial, and commercial reform. He uses information from recently opened archives to show that attempts by the state's trading organizations to create a commercial economy enjoyed wide support, offering a model that combined planning and rapid industrialization with social democracy and economic prosperity. In an effort to crush the syndicate movement and establish tight political control over the economy, Stalinist leaders intervened with a program of radical reforms. Shearer demonstrates that many professional engineers, planners, and industrial administrators actively supported the creation of a powerful industrial state unhampered by domestic social and economic constraints. The paradoxical result, Shearer shows, was a loss of control.With 9 illustrations. A 1st edition paperback in new condition. (263 pages & 14 pages of introduction). Bookseller Inventory # 3002
