Russian Dilemmas

This paper discusses some aspects of the legacy of the socialist past that make Russia's (or Ukraine's) macroeconomic policy problems rather different from those of the Latin American countries whose stabilisations are often cited as models for the USSR successor states. In particular, we want to consider (1) the structure of the inherited capital stock and (2) the lack of financial instruments, institutions, and markets.
