Encompassing all key periods in Russia's dramatic development, the book covers everything from early settlers, through medieval decline, Ivan the Terrible - the 'English Tsar', Peter the Great, the Crimean War and the rise of capitalism, the revolution, the Soviet period, finally ending with the return of capitalism after 1991.Setting Russia within the context of the 'World System', as outlined by Wallerstein, this is a major work of historical Marxist theory that is set to become a future classic.Historical materialismRussiaEconomic conditionsSoviet UnionEconomic conditionsRussia (Federation)Economic conditions1991-Historical materialism.947Kagarlitsky Boris1958-1595490Clarke Renfrey1649631MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815705803321Empire of the periphery3998468UNINA
