Talk:Decentralized planning (economics)

The role of soviet power

The Soviets (workers councils of the russian revolution), also played this role. The councils were controlled by regular workers from the factories who democratically coordinated the production together with the state administration. That was, until they withered away under the increasingly triumphing Stalin administration of the bolshevik party.

decentrally is not a word

It should be replaced with "decentralised" or "decentralized". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Goti123 (talk • contribs) 07:57, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

The article should be renamed to "Decentralized planning" or "Decentralized-economic planning". -Battlecry (talk) 06:01, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Page should be removed, probably / original research

In my view, the page should be removed. Here is why: none of the sources back up the notion of a "decentralised planned economy". For example: cybernetics and Oskar Lange. Lange was a proponent of a Central Planning Board, and therefore central planning (even if he called it market socialism, either way, certainly not decentralised planning). Pat Devine and negotiated coordination: nowhere in his book on his model does he describe it so. In fact, he advocates central pricing policies. On page 82, he seems to disassociate from describing his model as decentralised planning (referring to other models instead). In political advocacy, it makes references to Spanish anarchism, including a pamphlet by Diego Abad de Santillan, but nowhere does the author describe his proposals as decentralised planning in the source. So this leads me to assume that no one, except for the wikipedia contributor, considers it decentralised planning. In which case it is original research and should be removed.

The only model that is described as decentralised planning, that I can find, is participatory economics. But then this wikipedia page is a duplicate. Hence, I propose this page be removed on grounds of original research. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnneRodney (talk • contribs) 10:25, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

AnneRodney, I just boldly moved the article's content to Planned economy and usethist as a redirect for the Decentralized planning section. Davide King (talk) 00:01, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
