Global'nye Interesy I Natsional'kyi Egoism: Ekonomicheskii Aspekt (Global Interest And National Egoism: The Economic Aspect)

By E. E. Obminsky

Mezhdunarodnye Otnosheniya, 1990, 302 pp.

The deputy foreign minister in charge of restructuring Soviet trade policies articulates the new thinking guiding the most radical and pro-market reformers in Gorbachev's U.S.S.R. His book is as much a plea for reforming attitudes and assumptions as a blueprint for new practices. The portion of text dedicated to explaining the existence and workings of global market forces demonstrates how much the Soviets have yet to learn as they try to integrate into a world economy.
