Your subject line should have been "40 years on...", Barry! The former socialism in the Soviet Union was not overthrown in 1991, of course, but in the late 50s / early 60s, and social-imperialism, one kind of that impossible capitalism too, established there. This it's important to see, in order fully to understand the causes of the present disaster. One of them was that typically imperialist war against Afghanistan, for instance, 1979-1989. One very good article on that overthrow is the Chinese one from 1964: "On Khrushchov's Phoney Communism and Its Historical Lessons for the World". It can be found on David Romagnolo's excellent site "Marx to Mao" at www.marx2mao.org. Also for other reasons it's important today to see the difference between actual and phony socialism.
