Includes bibliographical references (pages 235-254) and index.
The new Russian revolution: false start or dead end? -- Creating owners: insider privatization and its consequences -- Wall Street comes to Moscow -- The rise and fall of the private banks -- No capitalism without capitalists: entrepreneurship in the new Russia -- Russia's epidemic of crime -- Toward the rule of law? -- Beyond coping: toward the recovery of Russian society -- The shrinking Russian state and the battle for taxes -- Conclusion: halfway to the market -- Russia on the eve of the twenty-first century.
"For a decade Russia has been dismantling communism and building capitalism. Describing a deeply flawed fledgling market economy, Capitalism Russian-Style provides a progress report on one of the most important economic experiments going on in the world today. It describes Russian achievements in building private banks and companies, stock exchanges, new laws and law courts. It analyzes the role of the mafia, the rise of new financial empires, entrepreneurs and business tycoons, and the shrinking Russian state. Thane Gustafson tells how the Soviet system collapsed and the new market society was born."--Jacket.
