| Research Abstract |
I have analized the macroeconomic and microeconomic analyses - theoretical and practical analyses - of the transition to market economy in Russia on and after 1990s. According to these analyses, in Russia new capitalism of indigenous type appeared, being close adhesion relation between political and business circles. It is represented by the oligopoly of financial -Industrial groups formed by the initiative of the government. This capitalism is radically different from the model of market economy of the Neo-classical school and from the Russian economy before the Revolution. On the base of this economic system, on the one hand national economy steadily recovered and grew up. On the other, economic differentials between regions and between individuals have surely expanded. It reveals not the exceptional abnormal situation, but that the logic of transition to market economy accomplishes itself. This logic derives from the character inherent to market economy, that is unequal development.
Thus the transition to market economy in Russia did well, and this success brought one-sided expansions of economic differentials between regions and between industries and between social classes in the country. In the new economic system of the capitalism of Russian model, especially through the extension of under employment and unpaid wage, unemployment and poverty have been serious social problems. In addition in the metropolitan periphery increase of the homeless- modern proletarianization - is deeply and quietly proceeding.
The next challenge is comparison Russian radical experience above to Chinese progressive marketization, then conclude inclusively about transition to market economy today.
