Investment planning in market socialism (original) (raw)

The paper explores the theoretical framework of market socialism, emphasizing the state's role in influencing investment while balancing market dynamics. It poses two pivotal questions: the consistency of market socialism's characteristics, mainly around profit distribution, and the degree of flexibility a market socialist economy possesses compared to capitalism. The focus is on how investment can be structured optimally through various governmental instruments, analyzing the implications of investment decisions on broader economic cycles and social welfare.
