ISBN: 9780521284042 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780521303279 / Angielski / Twarda / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Restructuring the Soviet Economic Bureaucracy
ISBN: 9780521363860 / Angielski / Twarda / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Inefficient, overstaffed and indifferent to the public's needs, the Soviet economic bureaucracy operates today much as it did in the 1930s. In Restructuring the Soviet Economic Bureaucracy, Paul R. Gregory takes an inside look at how this system works and why it has traditionally been so resistant to change. Gregory's findings shed light on a bureaucracy that is widely considered the greatest threat to Gorbachev's efforts at perestroika, or restructuring. Restructuring the Soviet Economic Bureaucracy is based on Soviet and Western published accounts as well as interviews with former members...

ISBN: 9780521380201 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Using data from Britain, France, Germany, the United States, and the world economy between 1850 and 1973, this book presents a clear and systematic examination of the evidence for long-term patterns of economic growth.
