When Ideas Fail (eBook, PDF)

Economic Thought, the Failure of Transition and the Rise of Institutional Instability in Post-Soviet Russia

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In the history of Russian economic ideas, a peculiar mix of anthropocentrism and holism provided fertile breeding ground for patterns of thought that were in potential conflict with the market.

This study offers an ideational explanation of Russia's relative failure to establish a functioning market economy and thus sets up a new and original perspective for discussion. In post-Soviet Russia, a clash between imported foreground ideas and deep domestic background ideas has led to an ideational division in the country.

This groundbreaking book makes an important contribution to Central Eastern and Eastern European area studies and to the current debate in the social sciences.
