摘要:The collapse of communist power in the Soviet Union and subsequent measures to establish a private sector have created opportunities for both foreign and domestic private capital in Russia and the non-Russian republics of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Investment Opportunities in Russia and the CIS contains papers published by the Post-Soviet Business Forum at the Royal Institute of International Affairs that have been revised for this volume.
