Communist Systems and the ‘Iron Law of Pluralism’

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  27 January 2009

Extract

It is now nearly twenty years since Daniel Bell despatched ten theories ‘in search of Soviet reality’. Each of these theories represented, ‘despite some shading or overlap,… a coherent judgement of Soviet behavior’. Considering them side by side, Bell thought, would make it easier to identify their respective merits and shortcomings; and it should also make clear which had ‘“stood up” in explaining events’, and which had not. Bell himself refrained from judgement on this point. In retrospect, however, it seems difficult to avoid the conclusion that none of the theories that Bell identified – nor indeed any of those that have joined them in more recent years – has yet come close to success. Rather, as the scholarly literature groans under the weight of a steadily-accumulating load of models and paradigms, each one more abstruse and more removed from reality than its predecessor, there must be many who would be inclined to agree with Alfred Hirschman that the continued search for conceptual innovation may well have become a positive ‘hindrance to understanding’.

Our definition, which is close to that which Presthus himself advances, is as follows: the diffusion and dispersion of power in a political system from central authorities to more or less autonomous groups, organizations and individuals, typically expressed in the establishment of ‘bargaining’ rather than ‘command’ relationships between them.

In the British Parliament in the 1830s and 1840s, as Almond and Powell note, the interests of working people, who were not themselves directly represented in that assembly, were articulated by ‘certain aristocratic and middle-class members of Parliament’ (Almond, Gabriel A. and Powell, G.

These, however, are probably ‘not very numerous’, in the view of the editor of the English edition of the standard collection of party documents (McNeal, R. H., in Resolutions and Decisions of the CPSU, vol. i (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1974), p. ix)Google Scholar, and for our purposes they may safely be ignored.

38 As Fainsod has noted, the increased number of Central Committee meetings since Stalin, is ‘one index of its enhanced importance’ (How Russia is Ruled, 2nd edn. (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1963), p. 219).Google Scholar

39 It would ideally have been desirable to have included a further set of indicators relating to the content (as distinct from those other indicators selected) of members' and deputies' contributions to debate. It would have been possible to do so for the Central Committee, however, only in respect of those meetings for which stenographic records were published; and a further series of difficulties would have arisen in attempting to distinguish for coding purposes between genuine claims upon the allocation of scarce resources, and those – undoubtedly a large, but variable, majority – which were based upon the prior approval or even proposal of the party-state authorities. It seemed safest in the circumstances to concentrate upon those variables which were more susceptible of unambiguous measurement, but which nevertheless appeared to provide a sufficient basis for testing for the longer-term systemic changes with which the pluralists are essentially concerned.
