OK, I can name one. It's Israel. Before 90s it was (administratively, politically, socially) socialist (not like marxist, but with collectives and communes and kibbutz, and much of economy being state monopolies). One reason after 90s everything changed about it was because there were certain reforms which, eh, significantly raised level of life, making all the old institutions unpopular. So it's no more socialist in anything.
A-and, of course, the part about collectivism was present. Some things I've heard about Israel before 90s emotionally reminisce USSR. Sort of a procrustean bed of a society, if you don't fit it's your problem.
