| Summary: | Anders Åslund foresaw the collapse of the Soviet Union in his book Gorbachev's Struggle for Economic Reform (1989). He depicted the success of Russia's market transformation in How Russia Became a Market Economy (1995). After Russia's financial crisis of 1998, Åslund insisted that Russia had no choice but to adjust to the world market (Building Capitalism, 2001), though most observers declared the market economic experiment a failure. Why did Russia not choose Chinese gradual reforms? Why are the former Soviet countries growing much faster than the Central European economies? How did the oligarchs arise? Who is in charge now? These are just some of the questions answered in How Capitalism Was Built, covering twenty-one former communist countries from 1989 to 2006. Anybody who wants to understand the confusing dramas unfolding in the region and to obtain an early insight into the future will find this book useful and intellectually stimulating |

He depicted the success of Russia's market transformation in How Russia Became a Market Economy (1995). After Russia's financial crisis of 1998, Åslund insisted that Russia had no choice but to adjust to the world market (Building Capitalism, 2001), though most observers declared the market economic experiment a failure. Why did Russia not choose Chinese gradual reforms? Why are the former Soviet countries growing much faster than the Central European economies? How did the oligarchs arise? Who is in charge now? These are just some of the questions answered in How Capitalism Was Built, covering twenty-one former communist countries from 1989 to 2006.

Why certain polices worked while others did not Anders Åslund foresaw the collapse of the Soviet Union in his book Gorbachev's Struggle for Economic Reform (1989). He depicted the success of Russia's market transformation in How Russia Became a Market Economy (1995). After Russia's financial crisis of 1998, Åslund insisted that Russia had no choice but to adjust to the world market (Building Capitalism, 2001), though most observers declared the market economic experiment a failure. Why did Russia not choose Chinese gradual reforms? Why are the former Soviet countries growing much faster than the Central European economies? How did the oligarchs arise? Who is in charge now? These are just some of the questions answered in How Capitalism Was Built, covering twenty-one former communist countries from 1989 to 2006. Anybody who wants to understand the confusing dramas unfolding in the region and to obtain an early insight into the future will find this book useful and intellectually stimulating Wirtschaft Wirtschaftspolitik Post-communism / Former communist countries Privatization / Former communist countries Kapitalismus (DE-588)4029577-1 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsreform (DE-588)4066512-4 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 gnd rswk-swf Demokratisierung (DE-588)4124941-0 gnd rswk-swf Privatisierung (DE-588)4047297-8 gnd rswk-swf Postkommunismus (DE-588)4998161-4 gnd rswk-swf Former communist countries / Economic policy Former communist countries / Economic conditions Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 gnd rswk-swf Mittelasien (DE-588)4039661-7 gnd rswk-swf Osteuropa (DE-588)4075739-0 gnd rswk-swf Transformationsländer (DE-588)4651141-6 gnd rswk-swf Postkommunismus (DE-588)4998161-4 s Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 s Kapitalismus (DE-588)4029577-1 s Osteuropa (DE-588)4075739-0 g Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 g Mittelasien (DE-588)4039661-7 g Transformationsländer (DE-588)4651141-6 g Privatisierung (DE-588)4047297-8 s Demokratisierung (DE-588)4124941-0 s 1\p DE-604 Wirtschaftsreform (DE-588)4066512-4 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-68382-1 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-86526-5 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511790416 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
