Okay, this is really needed (following the idea of @ccantore.bsky.social ): name your favourite microeconomic theory papers (at least 25 years old). #historyofmicro #econsky

For the JHI Blog's Forum on political economy, Véronique Mickisch critiques the continued association of "Marxism in practice” with the First Five-Year Plan in the Soviet Union and raises the need to recover the work of Marxist thinkers violently suppressed during the Stalinist purges of the 1930s.
The First Five-Year Plan, Stalinism, and the Fate of Marxist Political Economy in the USSR

We live in a funny world - this little book is now apparently "out", though I haven't seen physical copies or so. Instead, I was alerted by a Mastodon bot written by a colleague that notices new publications by our faculty members.
Well, there it is :)
