Socialism

An Economic and Sociological Analysis
Book • 1981
This book is a definitive refutation of nearly every type of socialism ever devised.

Mises presents a wide-ranging analysis of society, comparing the results of socialist planning with those of free-market capitalism in all areas of life.

He argues that a socialist commonwealth cannot apply economic calculation due to the absence of market prices, and defends capitalism against various criticisms.

The book addresses issues such as economic inequality, the impossibility of monopoly in a free market system, and the inefficiencies of centrally planned systems.
