The Cost of World War II to the Soviet People: A Reply
回应了Edward Saraydar对作者先前关于二战对苏联人民代价研究的评论，确认了战争代价范围（1940年苏联劳动力3.2至7.4年收入）作为上下限的合理性。
Susan Linz and I are fascinated, if somewhat puzzled, by Edward Saraydar's comments on our research note “The Cost of World War II to the Soviet People” (this J ournal , 38 [Dec. 1978]). His comment demonstrates what we ourselves discovered: that there are many ways to measure war costs. We are pleased to note that Saraydar apparently accepts the fundamental conception that we presented of the cost of the war to the population. We are also pleased to see that, despite his criticisms, the range we presented for the cost of the war (that is, 3.2 to 7.4 years' earnings of the 1940 Soviet labor force) stands up quite well as lower and upper bounds.
