Abstract: This work focuses on the transition period in which the main conditions for thecapitalist mode of production were established in the Russian economy. The choice of thiscountry was due to the special characteristics of its developmental pattern. In the Russianeconomic history, as opposed to the British case, State and the foreign capital was the mainresponsible for the country’s economic changes. On the other hand, the formation of a capitalistsystem has been based upon big land ownership and upon peasant impoverishment,instead of a really revolutionary way based on the peasant economy. The study has tried tograsp the historical process which has generated the internal market to capitalism and toappreciate the role of both the State and the foreign capital in the large industry formationwhich, in fact, had already been a reality at the end of the 19th century. JEL Classification: N13; P11.
