Oil in Putin's Russia : The Contests over Rents and Economic Policy Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

No sector has been as vital as oil to the Russian economy since Vladimir Putin came to power.

The longest serving leader since Stalin, Putin has presided during a period of relative economic prosperity driven largely by booming oil windfalls.

Oil in Putin’s Russia offers an in-depth examination of the contests over windfalls drawn from the oil sector.

Examining how the Russian leadership has guided the process of distributing these windfalls, Adnan Vatansever explores the causes behind key policy continuities and policy reversals during Putin’s tenure. The product of over ten years of research, including interviews with decision-makers and oil industry officials, Oil in Putin’s Russia takes an innovative approach to understanding the contested nature of resource rents and the policy processes that determine how they are allocated.

In so doing, it offers a comprehensive and timely account of politics and policy in contemporary Russia, and a significant contribution to research on the political economy of resource rents in mineral resource-rich countries.
