At first, it seemed as if the international financial crisis that
broke out in 2008 would have little effect in Russia and the other
post-Soviet states. But, by the end of the year, growth was
slowing, banks were reluctant to lend, share values had collapsed
and unemployment was rising inexorably. The stability of the Putin
leadership, it appeared, had been built on the turnaround in
economic performance that it had managed to achieve over more than
a decade. How would it cope with a sudden reversal? In Ukraine,
living standards fell even more sharply. In Belarus, there were
fewer obvious signs of economic difficulty, but it could hardly be
unaffected by the performance of its major trading partners.
Drawing on a wide range of evidence, an international group of
scholars address the impact of the international financial crisis
in the post-Soviet states and the continuing implications of the
crisis for these countries themselves and for the wider world. This
book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Communist
Studies and Transition Politics, now known as East European
Politics.
