Abstract

This paper deals with Russia’s transition from communism to market economy which has been harder than anticipated just a decade ago. The rise in prosperity that the market economy had promised had not been materialised. But, in other transition countries from successes and failures, lessons have been learned, strategies devised and examples set which can serve as the basis for the success of transition not only in Russia but also in other countries of East Europe. This paper discusses these very aspects.
