"Impoverished, indebted, and underdeveloped at the close of World War II, Romania
underwent dramatic changes as part of its transition to a centrally planned economy.
As with the Soviet experience, it pursued a policy of 'primitive socialist accumulation'
whereby the state appropriated agricultural surplus and restricted workers' consumption
in support of industrial growth. Focusing on the daily operations of planning in the
ethnically mixed city of Cluj from 1945 to 1955, this book argues that socialist accumulation
was deeply contradictory: it not only inherited some of the classical tensions of
capital accumulation, but also generated its own, which derived from the multivocal
nature of the state socialist worker as a creator of value, as living labour, and
as a subject of emancipatory politics"
