What is communism (as an economic process, rather than a political ideology or polemical concept)?
This is a critical concept. We must gain a strong sense of what this term means, as an economic concept, in order to avoid the pitfalls of the long history of using this term in polemical arguments. There are a number of references to communism in the readings, although the Resnick and Wolff paper provides the most elaborated discussion.
