What were the differences between both economic systems?
Yugoslavia is mentioned as an example of market socialism, but didn't the USSR have a consumption market too? I mean, couldn't people choose to spend their money in this or that store? What exactly is a "market"?

USSR: capitalism with heavy state intervention, then capitalism with less state intervention, then capitalism with next to no state intervention whatsoever (Glasnost-Perestroika liberalization policies doin' work).

Yugoslavia: capitalism with heavy state intervention, then capitalism with state intervention on the organisational level (up to a third of private enterprises being represented by state-mandated trade unions ratifying a democratic vote for every worker on the quantities in wages and production prior to market distribution), then capitalism with next to no state intervention whatsoever (IMF loans and liberalization policies doin' work).

That slash is rude, comrade. MLs would tell you the USSR was socialist because it called itself socialist. What a rascal, that Stalin.(USER WAS SENT TO GULAG FOR BEING COUNTER-REVOLUTIONARY REDDIT PLANT )

What I wanna know is what was the "market" part about Yugoslavia's system that the USSR didn't have. As far as I know, in the Soviet Union, despiste having limited options and misery, you could in theory choose to spend your money in one place or another as opposed to just getting food and other things directly from the government. So doesn't that constitute a market, albeit quite a limited one?
