Policy-making For Russian Industry (studies In Russian And East European History And Society)

A description of the contemporary Russian economy on the basis of an analysis of economic policy-making structures and procedures. The empirical detail is concentrated in the heavy industry sector, although the relationships between all sectors receive attention. All sources of policy-making input are examined - the presidency and central governmental agencies, sectoral state agencies, industrial representative associations, parliament and the regions, and individual enterprises. Policy-making procedures receive considerable attention, as part of an effort to distinguish sharply between formal and informal styles of policy making. This Book Is An Attempt To Choose Between Four Models Of The Contemporary Russian Economy: The Familiar State-run And Market Models And The Author's Own 'negotiated' And 'bargained' Economies. The Last Two Are Derived From The 'administered Market' Model, Developed In The Late-soviet Period To Describe A System In Which Power Has Seeped Away From The Centralized State.--jacket.
