Richard David Wolff (April 1, 1942–) is a US American economist who is known for his revisionist views and nominal espousal of "Marxism". He is far more aligned with anarchism, namely anarcho-mutualism. Wolff advocates the gradual transformation of the capitalist system into socialism through the establishment of worker cooperatives.

Positions

Soviet Union

Wolff believes that the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was only socialist during the early 1920s, and became state capitalist with collectivization under Joseph Stalin.[1]
