"Socialist systems" - the third book of the series of works by Wilfredo Pareto in Russian

This work is first published in Russian and is already the third in a series of books by Wilfredo Pareto after the "Textbook of Political Economy" "Transformation of Democracy".

In the Socialist Systems, Pareto proposed an approach to the classification of types of socialisms, according to which the content of "real systems" is objectively possible ways of economic and social organization of society on the basis of the priority of collective forms of management.
