| Â | Gift economy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | One of the possible benefits of a gift economy (which it has in common with some planned economies) is that it can provide for the needs of some who have no current means with which to reciprocate. |  | | A gift economy is sometimes referred to as a "sharing economy," although many economists reserve the term "sharing" for the use of a single resource by more than one consumer, such as a commons, a public library, or a shared car. |  | | A gift economy is an economic system in which the prevalent mode of exchange is for goods and services to be given without explicit agreement upon a quid pro quo, or the concept of "a favor for a favor" in the Latin language. |

| Â | At Cold War's End: US Intelligence on the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, 1989-1991 |
 | | The Intelligence Community recorded the Soviet economy's stagnation and decline in the 1980s, and anticipated the failures of perestroika and the break-up of the USSR in a timely and accurate manner, even though the message was not always welcome. |  | | The Soviets considered their revolution both the heir to and a superior version of the French Revolution of 1789 because it had solved the problem of class in-equality by eliminating private property and the irrationality of the business cycle by replacing the market with the plan. |  | | Based on an assessment of planned reductions in force levels, defense spending, and military procurement, the Estimate concluded that a 25-year period of continuous growth in Soviet ground forces had ended, that reductions beyond those already announced were possible, and that a "resumption of growth. |

| Â | SOVIET UNION: "SORT OF SOCIALISM" AFTER PERESTROIKA |
 | | The soviet political economy, after Perestroika, wills neither be a centrally planned command economy nor a privatised market one, but "a sort of socialism", according to a leading soviet personality involved in Perestroika. |  | | It would not be a completely unregulated market, but enterprises would be free to buy and sell and make free choice of clients, and the economy would be open to foreign competition through imports and joint ventures. |  | | The Soviet Union sought an "open economy" where foreign economic relations grow faster than incomes and GNP- with foreign trade growing 1.2 times faster than the GNP. |

| Â | Soviet Economic Decline: Did an Oil Crisis Cause the Transition in the Soviet Union? |
 | | Considering the West's experience, there would be no way for the planned economies of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union not to have had even bigger recessions during the period 1988 to 1995-when they saw an even bigger reduction of their oil supply-than the west had in the 1970's and 1980's. |  | | They freed their economies, however, it was virtually impossible-not to mention hypocritical-to follow the tenets of any communist ideology with government ownership of everything and then suddenly change to a free market economy. |  | | It's just that Soviet natural resources are subject to the same laws of geology and supply that the US is. Incentives such as career advancement or even selling oil on the black market all combined to induce the Soviets to find and produce as much oil as possible and it did. |

| Â | The Modern Market Economy and the Rule of Law |
 | | At a deeper level, the core of a market economy is a free enterprise system, while the essence of a planned economy is state ownership of firms. |  | | One difference between a market economy and a planned economy lies in the mechanism of resource allocation: a market economy relies on market prices to allocate resources, whereas a planned economy uses administrative commands of planned quantities. |  | | One of the most important distinctions that separate a bad market economy from a good one is that, in a bad market economy, there exists an unhealthy relationship between the state and the economic agents (including business enterprises) due to the absence of the rule of law. |

 | | It can be seen that the planned economy in the end was not as prosperous or as efficient as is a free market economy, and that non-western systems will have to conform in order to survive in the end. |  | | With a planned economy, each person was given just enough to live off of, which cut the gap out of the class system. |  | | One thing that I find fault in what Marx wrote was that a planned economy is, “the public ownership of the means of production” (Encyclopedia Americana, V. 9), which I believe is wrong because only the government had control over production, it was the public that had to deal with it. |

 | | In Cambodia, agricultural cooperatives under the rigid centrally planned economy were replaced in 1979 by krom samaki (solidarity groups), each composed of 10-15 households, with three different classes. |  | | But China has pursued a third way between the centrally planned economy and free market system, implemented a mixed economy of governments, village and households, and consequently succeeded in solving the above-mentioned dilemma by both preventing new landlessness in the low wage economy and controlling inefficient land-holding in the high wage economy. |  | | However, Hayami does not note a dilemma: certain strongly enforced regulations or conditions in the land transaction market in the low wage economy may become a source of inefficient land-holding in the high wage economy; but without them, newly landless would appear in the low wage economy. |
