MIKHAIL GORBACHEV on Socialism

From Perestroika Lost, New York Times, 3-14-10, p. 9, "Week in Review" section.
"The Soviet Union was strong in emergencies, but in more normal circumstances, our system condemned us to inferiority."

"What we had to abandon was quite clear: the rigid ideological, political and economic system."
