Economic Developments in Contemporary Russia EPUB
Edited by Michael (Trinity College, University of Dublin, Ireland) Grenfell
Part of the Guides to Economic and Political Developments in Asia series
EPUB
Description
This book provides a comprehensive overview of Russia’s difficult economic transition from a command economy since the early 1990s.
It covers the financial crisis of August 1998 and the global financial crisis a decade later.
Key subjects covered include economic transition, privatization and liberalization; changes in land ownership and agriculture; energy; foreign direct investment; economic stabilization; and economic performance.
Russia is well endowed with raw materials, especially oil and natural gas; this book argues that in some ways this has not helped Russia’s attempts to become a more diversified and high-tech economy.
Overall, the book demonstrates how much the Russian economy has changed in the period.
It continues - and adds to – the overview of developments in the author’s The New Russia (2002), and is the companion volume to Political Developments in Contemporary Russia (2011) - both published by Routledge.
