A key attraction of this volume is that it is the first insider-analysis of the change of economic system in Russia. It functions as a thorough account of Russia's economic policy in this critical year. The contributors have considerable insight on the transformation process. Most of the Russian contributors are acting as economic advisors of ministers/vice-ministers to the Russian government. These government representatives are also well-qualified academics in their own right. These are not the cautious reform economist of yesteryear, but a whole new elite of Russian economists who genuinely understand and embrace the principles of the market economy. Russia itself is in a completely new situation today compared to one year ago. There are no longer any illusions about the possibilities of holding together the former Soviet republics. Russia is now free to proceed with the business of economic transformation, unfettered by discord elsewhere, The change of system has already begun.
