ANDREW'S UNIVERSITY ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS REVIEW}, month = {Jun}, note = {A key point in discussing the unique features of Russia's economy lies in one's understanding of the self-professed socialist system of the former Soviet Union and the form of capitalism that has served as a transitional model. From this perspective, this paper critically analyzes D.M. Kotz's provocative statement that "Russia is not in transition to capitalism." Despite Kotz's arguments, Russia's workers have been already transformed into a wage-laboring class generating surplus value. S. Menshikov's research verifies that the revenue of the new propertied class in Russia does not originate in non-capitalist predatory/extractive relations as Kotz argues, but from surplus value created by Russian workers. Therefore, Russia is becoming capitalist, while having some of its own unique features. Contrary to Kotz's claim, Russia's neo-liberal transitional strategy has not obstructed the transition to capitalist development. Rather, it has achieved the new aim of neo-liberalism as the latest stage of modern capitalism: the establishment of class power. During the collapse of the Soviet Union and the transition to a market economy, the Russian society and economy experienced catastrophic shocks. The explanation for this unexpected development can be found in the structural changes that were already taking place within the administrative command system of the Soviet economy. These were tacit market-oriented changes that preceded the transition, and the neo-liberal strategy ended in disaster because it resonated with these earlier changes. In this context, it would be incorrect to conclude that the neo-liberal strategy was simply pressed upon Russia from the outside., 6, KJ00005005324, 論文, Article}, pages = {101--151}, title = {ロシア シホン シュギ ノ トクシツ ニ ツイテ バン マサキ ジュンキョウジュ ツイトウゴウ}, volume = {50}, year = {2008}, yomi = {ウエノ, カツオ} }
