What did some people in the world want to learn from Soviet Russia even while criticising it?

Planning and social welfare measures

The governing concept is the mixed international response to the Soviet experiment. Some observers criticised Soviet Russia for restrictions, violence or political controls, yet they also noticed its attempt to organise production through state planning and to provide social services. During a period of economic crisis and inequality, these features made the Soviet model interesting to reformers, workers and anti-colonial thinkers. Option A is correct because planning and social welfare were the constructive measures that some people wished to study or adapt. Worship of monarchy, collecting Church tax and creating colonies were not lessons associated with Soviet socialism and do not fit the historical context.
