Restructuring the Soviet Economy

Restructuring the Soviet Economy examines the Soviet leadership''s most urgent question - how to revitalize the soviet economy.

He analyses both the problems besetting the centrally planned system and those that have paralysed perestroika and assesses whether the most ambitious attempt ever to reform the Soviet economy will succeed.
