Russia at the Crossroads

Padma Desai and Brian Snowdon

World Economics, 2006, vol. 7, issue 2, 11-71

Abstract: To set the interview in context, Brian Snowdon first traces out some important landmarks in twentieth-century Russian/Soviet Union history. In the conversation that follows, Professor Desai gives her views on a number of key issues relating to the decline of the Soviet system and problems of Russia's transition to a market economy. Recently, Freedom House has suggested that Russia is at a ‘crossroads' with respect to its fledgling liberal democracy and market economy. Therefore, also discussed are the prospects for survival of democracy and markets in the new Russian ‘liberal' order. In the first part of the interview, Professor Desai also comments on the influence of socialist ideas on India's growth and development strategy.
