Review of Vladimir Nevezhin's "At Stalin's Dining Table"
The economic theory of the leisure class was not from Veblen?
Yes but also from Bukharin. A very different book, but the same title. Bukharin's was a critique of utilitarianism and marginalist economics. His argument was that the theory responded to the political needs to rentier capitalists.
