The shift from a centrally planned to a market-based economy involves, amongst other elements, the restructuring of state-owned or privatised enterprises. Realigning product lines, adopting new technology and imposing sound finances are all important stages in the integration of enterprises into world markets. This book analyses the efficiency of the economic restructuring in the two largest successor states to the Soviet Union, raising important questions such as why they have been relatively slow to pursue restructuring policies, how the transition has affected labour markets and institutions, and the impact that this has had on poverty and social safety nets. Analysis is based on a careful examination of micro level data, documenting the experiences of both institutions and individuals.
