Produktbeschreibung
Combining the theoretical perspectives of a leading Russian political scientist and an American political philosopher who have collaborated for years, Capitalism with a Human Face analyzes the relation between economics and politics in Russia as it moves toward modernization. Throughout the book, the authors contrast Western media accounts of the Russian situation with less accessible but more relevant data gathered in Russia since 1991. They advocate a new notion of centrism for Russia: one that combines democratic politics and a market economy without abandoning the social guarantees on which many Russians have long relied and without which their political and economic life is likely to remain in turmoil. This will be an important work for scholars and students of social and political philosophy, international relations, comparative politics, and economics.
