Why Doesn't Russian Industry Work?

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This work on the industrial sociology of the USSR examines how the structure of Soviet bureaucracy prevents industry making technical innovations, even though individual managers, using their initiative, try to introduce them. The author argues that this restraint on new inventions is an important cause of the failure of Soviet industry in recent years, and illustrates his points with case studies from a range of Siberian industries, which have been recently hit by strikes.
