The theme of Planned Chaos
Planned chaos is an excerpt from socialism, presented by Ludwig von Mises. In the book “An Economic and Sociological Analysis,” this piece of work was added to discuss the impact of socialism on free enterprises and personal liberty through government policies and implementations. Author discussed his thesis statement by dividing his work in ten different sections like liberation of demonic forces, the need to expose and challenge interventionism, similarities and differences between socialism and communism, the identification of interventionism as German pattern of socialism, Nazism, fascism, the assumed inevitability of socialism as the future destiny of humanity and the three invisible qualities of interventionism.
In the first chapter, various reason of failure of interventionism is discussed. For instance, free market relies on the profit, while aim like equal distribution of income or wealth cannot be achieved in free trade. Therefore, interventionism shows failure and blame free trade. In the second chapter, role of anti-dictatorial and the dictatorial practice is discussed. Author believes that political condition of the nation in dictatorship fails the social character of interventionism. In next chapter, further discussion was made to differentiate the pros and cons of communism and socialism. Russia’s aggressiveness is also discussed by the author in separate chapter in which he analyzed the impact of Russia on nation’s social and economic condition. In the chapter Trotsky’s Hersey, the author highlights the fact that dictatorial power cannot enhance equality, instead, it relies on power and oppressing the population who are rivals.
In a chapter, author claimed that October 1917 was the turning point in the history which changed the ideology in the society. It was the time of revolution towards socialism. In the remaining chapter, he discussed the changes in society and power like in fascism and Nazism. In the end, he concluded his work by discussing the alleged inevitability of socialism ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"Dt0UjgVo","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(kanopiadmin)","plainCitation":"(kanopiadmin)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":887,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/rVaVAHaF/items/UYHFXCH2"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/rVaVAHaF/items/UYHFXCH2"],"itemData":{"id":887,"type":"webpage","title":"Planned Chaos","container-title":"Mises Institute","genre":"Text","abstract":"The history of mankind, wrote Ludwig von Mises, is the history of ideas.
