In part four of Back in the USSR's discussion of my book Proletarian God: Building the Socialist Future, I turn my attention to the construction of a socialist economy. Self-determination for working class people can only be secured through working class control over the means of production, and the abolition of the tyranny of market forces and the profit motive. It means the construction of an economy based on planning and the primacy of human needs. This has been done before, it is being done now, and it can and must be done in the future. Indeed, socialism is the only way to guarantee human survival in the face of the devastation that capitalism has inflicted on this planet.
