Unethical Business Behavior in Post-Communist Russia: Origins and Trends

Author

  • Filatov, Alexander

Abstract

Russian is presently in a transition stage between the old centrally administered command economy and a market economy. The result is uncertainty and instability. In such a situation there is both little room and little concern for business ethics. The objective conditions for this include distortions in the systems of supply and exchange, political instability, and judicial ineffectiveness. The subjective conditions include the breakdown of morality under the communist system, and the wide acceptance of “wild†capitalism as a necessary stage in the development of a capitalist market system.
