Summary

The Republic of Tatarstan, the ancient Muslim country located in the heartland of the Russian Federation, has been traveling the same unknown path in the minefield of post-Communist market transition as the rest of the former Soviet Union. Yet under the leadership of its democratically elected President Mintimer Shaimiev, Tatarstan is a model of democratic transition, internationally recognized as the Model of Tatarstan. This book explains the democratic and social market-oriented reforms in Tatarstan as well as the prudent pragmatism of President Shaimiev, whose vision and practice of market reform have helped his country to ease the grip of the present Russian economic and financial crisis.
