Reviews

Dzarasov has made an important contribution to understanding capitalism in Russia, more than 20 years after the break-up of the USSR. -- Simon Pirani, Senior Research Fellow, Oxford Institute for Energy Studies In this book, Dzarasov takes a novel theoretical approach to understanding the corporate enterprise that will fundamentally change how heterodox economists will think them. Dzarasov convincingly argues that at its roots, the corporation is not really about producing goods and services as well as making its CEO rich; it is only about making the CEO. -- Professor Frederic S. Lee, editor of American Journal of Economics and Sociology
