Series
Russian Economy: Trends and Perspectives

Annotation
The year 2001 concluded the first decade of post-Communist transformation, Russia’s development in a regime of market democracy. The period witnessed difficult and complex processes of the transforma-tion of Soviet socialism into a new society. A tortuous and contradictory path gave rise to acrimonious debate about the very nature of reform, its effectiveness and appropriateness, about whether there were alternative ways of meeting the challenges that the country was facing.
