Looking to Liberman. Along with forcibly stopping the leakage of labor, East Germany has taken another important step toward stability: it has embraced capitalist-like reforms for its economy more thorough than those of any other Soviet satrapy. Instead of Marx's hoary notion of giving "to each according to his needs," it is tending toward Soviet Economist Evsei Liberman's philosophy of reward according to efficiency. Since 1963, East Germany has also adopted what used to be heresy: industrial decentralization and looser planning. The regime granted more powers to local managers to boost or slash production, prices...

TIME's cover story last Feb. 12 on the influential but little-known Soviet economics professor, Evsei Liberman, revealed that the winds of economic change were astir in the land of the Soviets-and that they were blowing from the West.

Among the new creations: one for machine tools...

...pioneers, but a soaring outflow of migrants: close to 1,000,000 in the past seven years. Most of them go to the Caucasus, where they settle down as "kitchen gardeners"-people who farm their own backyards. More Daring. If they have their way, the followers of Economist Evsei Liberman (TIME cover, Feb. 12), who want to put the Soviet economy on a profit basis, will swell the jobless ranks even more. In Kommunist, Economist G. Shubkin recently complained that two workers often shared the same task in 60 Moscow factories he studied. Shubkin's suggestion: with the "inevitable...

...throughout Eastern Europe what it has in Yugoslavia. There it helped build a major auto plant in 1954, still collects licensing fees for technical assistance. In Russia, Fiat is also pressing to get long-term licensing fees. The Russians in the past have opposed that, but economists of the Liberman school lately have advocated license deals as a way to draw upon Western technology...
