without any check on power. There has to be a way to implement socialist principles while maintaining diversity and dissent as checks on power. These two things are essential for a functioning democracy.

The fundamental contradiction within marxist-leninism (+/- maoism, juche) is the tension between democratic integration of popular will and the need for ideological unity. The self assurance of centralism against the integration and negotiation with its own people's needs.

[Socialist Wizard @DailyDonaldson]

Pluralist represenatiative democarcy runs into this issue as well, but it manifests in different forms. Overall the largest flaw with democratic centralism is the lack of permitted disagreement, which permits allows stupid decisions by the government to be implemented

And again, and again, and again, the market proves to be more flexible and adaptable than the engineers, extrapolating, with their calculators expect. When prices change, behaviour changes. Believe in substitution, in elasticity, in human ingenuity, that is, in the market, and you will get a closer approximation than all doom-mongers. For this of course, a market must exist (e.g., does not apply to the fertility collapse).
