Wealth, Prices, And The Power To Requisition: The New Economic Policy In The Soviet Union

Abstract: This paper constructs a game theoretical model of the N.E.P. (New Economic Policy, 1921-1930) in the Soviet Union. The N.E.P. is modeled as a cooperative income redistribution game, whose solution concept is the Shapley value. Special attention is paid to the connection between politi cal power, as measured by party strength, and economic power, inversely related to the taxation rate. The equation relating peasant party strength and the state grain procurement rate is fitted for the available data, 19251930. The model shows clearly the relationship between falling political power of the peasants and the rising rate of grain procurement by the state that were hallmarks of the N.E.P. The aftermath of the N.E.P. is inter preted in light of these results.

The State and the Distribution of Wealth within the Malay Society in Peninsular Malaysia

Abstract: Introduction: The State, Development Policies, and Wealth Distribution With the inauguradon of the New Economic Policy (NEP) and the Oudine Perspecdve Plan (OPP), 1970-1990, various analysts have observed that since 1970, the State1 has increasingly and massively intervened in . the funcdoning of the economic system by direct participation in the ownership and control of productive assets. The Third Malaysia Plan (TMP), 1976-80 provides the details concerning the rationale, magnitude, and the procedure of the Malaysian Government's prevailing goal of "re structuring wealth" or property relations in the economy:

Malaysia in 1980: A Year of Political Consolidation and Economic Development

Abstract: The front cover of the 22 August 1980 issue of that erstwhile regional news journal the Far Eastern Economic Review (FEER) highlighted "Towards Utopia '90" as a theme of Malaysia in 1980. Whatever ones views of that journal's editorial stances, it is poignant none the less that the year in review is the midway point of the supposedly unilinear twenty-year path of the government's New Economic Policy (NEP). Thus, the events of Malaysia in 1980 should be seen not only in terms of a chronological one-year time frame but also against the background of the country's passage from the decade of the seventies into the eighties.
