Vladimir Mau

Ekonomicheskaya Politika / Economic Policy, 2012, 5—20

Abstract: The author presented his vision of the events of the early phases of radical economic reforms in Russia based on the understanding of the Soviet (Russian) transformation as a combination of crises and accordingly of interweaving of several transformation processes. Four large-scale historic challenges for Russia (post-communist transformation, macroeconomic crisis, social revolution, transition to post-industrial era) are identified and analyzed. It is shown that the first three are resolved and the main socio-economic problems of Russia are the crisis of the industrial system and the formation of socioeconomic foundations of postindustrial society.
