Socialism in Practice e-bog

First published in 1962, this book is a study by author Scott Nearing on Communism in Eastern Europe, where he spent three months during the winter of 1961-1962. Together with his wife Helen, he visited Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Yugoslavia.As self-proclaimed socialists, Nearing's report "e;is neither objective nor is it neutral"e;, but rather seeks to "e;present to the American people the frightening lack of information in North America concerning [current] developments in East Europe."e;Based on his personal observation during his travels through Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Yugoslavia, the author stands firm that "e;news of socialist construction in East Europe should be immensely valuable to Western peoples who want to see order, decency, peace and improvement in the world."e;
