Abstract

The articlepresents a review of the monographnamed in the title. The main content of the book under review is shortly presented. Methodological approaches of the monograph’s author as well as his conclusions are the subject of the reviewer’s foremost attention. According to the reviewer, the book makes it possible to clarify the processes of post-Soviet changes both in economy and in politics by the exam-ple of the relations between a big regional company – Lukoil-Perm – and Perm re-gional authorities. It is noted that the processes described do not always fit the most common schemes.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17072/2218-1067-2017-2-179-185
