Significance and impact

• Degeneration of socialism: The New Class undermined the original ideals of socialism, transforming it into a system that served the interests of the elite rather than the broader population.
• Stagnation and corruption: The New Class's focus on maintaining its power and privileges led to stagnation and corruption, as they were more interested in preserving their position than in promoting social and economic progress.
• Disillusionment and dissent: The New Class's actions led to widespread disillusionment and dissent among the population, as people became increasingly frustrated with the lack of accountability and the concentration of power.

"The ownership of the New Class is a collective ownership. It is not ownership in the legal sense, but rather a form of usufruct—the right to use, control, and distribute national wealth. The party is the owner, and the members of the party are, in theory, only its executors. In practice, however, the highest echelon of the party enjoys the benefits of ownership without the burden of legal title. They determine national income, allocate resources, and grant themselves pensions, villas, and privileges. Thus, they are a class in the Marxist sense: a group of people who stand in a specific relation to the means of production—in this case, political control."
