Mau, Vladimir, and Irina Starodubrovskaya, 'Revolutions and Economic Growth: General Approach', The Challenge of Revolution: Contemporary Russia in Historical Perspective (Oxford , 2001; online edn, Oxford Academic, 1 Nov. 2003), https://doi.org/10.1093/0199241503.003.0003, accessed 5 May 2025.
Abstract
This chapter examines the role of economic modernization as a principle generator of the challenges that, if not adequately addressed by the state, lead to pre‐revolutionary conditions and thence to revolution itself. It examines the historical record of economic modernization in this context, and reviews the theoretical literature on the processes involved. In the Russian case, the Soviet system proved unable to master the economic development that it had itself unleashed, or to remove the internal constraints on adaptation that it had itself established.
