There are none, except for an article here and there by people like Yuri Maltsev, but generally those are non-comprehensive--though still plentiful and valuable--one-off pieces such as:

If all goes well that will change in the near future (that's what I'm writing my dissertation is on).

Peter Boettke's written a few books on this subject. See here, here, and here. Paul Craig Roberts did one too.

I had forgotten about Boetkke's book on the USSR's early political economy, thanks for the tip Tunk!
