• Resumen: Es fácil observar cómo en la teoría y en la práctica los países "socialistas" han estado casi totalmente aislados económicamente del resto del mundo. Un gran porcentaje de su comercio exterior se lleva a cabo entre ellos mismos (como es el caso del COMECON); esto se facilita cuando en determinada región existen varios de los mencionados países, pero resulta casi imposible cuando economías pequeñas que han estado bajo la influencia capitalista por mucho tiempo (en este caso Nicaragua) se "liberan". En otras palabras, la reorientación de la economía no puede ser inmediata y, por el contrario, consideramos en este artículo que no es necesaria, siempre y cuando se reorganice la estructura administrativa y el orden de prioridades económicas y sociales. El trabajo demuestra que aunque estos países continúan siendo "dependientes", ello no significa que la transición al socialismo peligra. Se propone, entonces, el principio de coexistencia, sacando así el mayor provecho económico posible a esta relación.
• Abstract: In theory and practice "socialist" countries have been almost completely isolated economically from the rest of the world. A large part of their foreign trade is conducted amongst themselves. While this causes few problems for countries adjacent to one another, it is far more difficult for small economies which have newly entered the socialist ranks as in the case of Nicaragua. This paper argues that such adjustments cannot be made quickly and probably need not happen at all. Maintenance of the existing trade structure need not put socialism at risk, and adoption the principle of co-existence is the preferred strategy.
