Description:
This is a transcript of a speech delivered by Bulgarian leader Todor Zhivkov at the 1986 PCC meeting in Budapest. It focuses on the weakened economic situation of the Warsaw Pact countries. Zhivkov claims that many of the economic problems that the Socialist countries are facing could be solved by re-examining and applying the Marxist Law of Value - a regulative principle of the economic exchange of the products of human work. According to Zhivkov, the Communist party committees of the Warsaw Pact are ready to embrace new ideas for economic development, but the government apparatus and economic organs are still too slow in executing them.
