| 520 | 8 | |a Annotation |b This book examines the failure of economic reform in Russia since 1991, when Boris Yeltsin proclaimed his commitment to economic stabilization, privatization, and price liberalization. Optimism over Russia's market reforms vanished with the crash of August 1998, when the ruble lost over 70 percent of its value and banks defaulted on their debts and forward currency contracts. Contrary to Yeltsin's reform promises, the Russian economy of the 1990s more closely resembled a Soviet model than a market-driven one. The Logic of Economic Reform in Russia illuminates the general problems of establishing market economies in settings where the institutional system to support the market has not had decades to develop. Suggesting that corruption may be associated with growth in the early stages of capitalism, Jerry F. Hough argues that the disappointing results of Yeltsin's reform efforts were not the product of Russian culture or history, but the logical consequences of rational men responding to the incentive system created by economic reform. | |
| 520 | 8 | |a Annotation |b Hough's study rests in part on data gathered in four surveys carried out between 1993 and 1997 of parliamentary elections, the presidential election, and a survey of Russian youth and young adults. Using this data, Hough (political science, Duke U.) analyzes the rational thought and incentives present behind Russia's policies. The political circumstances, particularly those that occurred under Yeltsin, inform an important portion of his argument as to why economic reform has not proceeded as many had anticipated.
