From War Communism, New Economic Policies to Stalinism and five-year-plan.
Resnick Dreamt a Second Workers' Revolution in the USSR never happened, but supposed to save the Union.

"Using a version of Marx's theory of class to explain the rise and fall of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union as evidence for the validity of this theory, Resnick and Wolff succeed in providing us with an original and fascinating account of both. Whether one agrees or disagrees with their results, no future work on either of these important subjects will be able to ignore the sheer creative verve and intellectual rigor with which they lay out their arguments. Very highly recommended." -- Bertell Ollman, editor of Market Socialism: The Debate Among Socialists
