A very informative book
I had to read this book for a class. I wouldn't do it for fun unless learning about Russian economic reform was my thing. The book is dry with details, but actually rather interesting in the way it turns Russian privatization into a political chess match of strategies and battles. I learned A LOT from this book. It is well-structured and logical in its presentation, which leads to greater understandability, even for someone with a limited background in economics. Anyone who understands more about economics than me would find it absolutely fascinating, I'm sure.

Very Interesting!
Shleifer and Vishny are my personal heroes when it comes to the Russian Privatization program. The authors have written a wonderful book that gives sound economic and political understanding of the program from start to finish. Similar Products
