Features: Dugan-Baranovsky's works include two that have been translated into Chinese: "The Cyclical Industrial Crisis" and "Principles of Political Economy." The book presented to readers here, "Socialism: A Beneficial Doctrine," is a culmination of Dugan-Baranovsky's years of creative work in the field of socialism. This book reflects Dugan-Baranovsky's political attitude and views on socialism. As Lenin once said, "This professor supported a little Marxism, a little populism, and a little marginal utility theory." This evaluation is quite apt for this book. Although Dugan-Baranovsky dedicated his life to studying the integration of social ideals and social sciences, he only approached socialism as a doctrine, adopting a compromising methodology and failing to connect it with the proletarian revolution, which had already become a historical trend at the time. In the end, he even slid toward the Constitutional Democratic Party. This book is not lengthy and aims to explain the essence of socialism—the new socialist system.
