Abstract
The article offers a review of three decades of efforts by A. I. Kitov to prove to the country leadership the necessity to set up in the USSR the automated system of managing socialist economy. They included not only the well-known addresses to Communist Party leaders but also two attempts to publish his articles in the 'Kommunist' journal during the years of restructuring. The author offers an interesting historic document, a resolution written by A. I. Kitov of the Conference which took place in Penza in October 1989 'The Role of Human Factor and Modern Computers in Enhancing Enterprise Management'. This document was his last public speech dedicated to economy management.
