Rosser Jr, John Barkley informs us:
3) One reason for the current interest in Kondratiev
in Russia is that he was verboten for a long time. He was
an ally of Bukharin's in the planning debates of the 1920s,
worked in the Vesenkha and supported the NEP and was
executed during the Stalin purges of the late 1930s for
(mathematical) "formalism."
And I thought Stalin was all bad, too.
