This book is an insightful study of the transition economy, using the little-known case of Belarus, a country “trapped in transition” for almost three decades. The model of state capitalism, so widely internationally known, has different specific roots, metrics and instruments in Belarus. The book outlines several pitfalls facing by the Belarusian economy, all of which lead to long-term economic recession in Belarus.

  • “This book is food for thought when it comes to Belarus’ future economic model. A profound understanding of the economic state Belarus finds itself in, and the factors used to build the paradigm for the country’s development over the course of the past several years, needs to drive new, workable solutions that resolve economic imbalances, bolster growth and large-scale energy consumption, and feed the dynamism intrinsic to the private sector”.
    - Dimitri Gvindadze Lead Economist for East Europe and the Caucasus of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development; ex-Minister of Finance of Georgia
  • “In addition to being profound, multi-faceted and critical in its analysis, this book is very timely – the Belarusian economy is on the threshold of inevitable structural changes – and it is a practical guide for introducing such changes to the public finances”.
    - Dmytro Sologub Deputy Governor, National Bank of Ukraine
  • “In a pragmatic, reasoned study, the author outlines the current structure of the Belarusian economy and explains how it came to be; but more importantly he lays out a course for continued reforms and argues how the best to take the country’s brand of ‘state capitalism’ into a stable, prosperous future”.
    - Courtney Fingar Editor-in-chief, fDi Magazine (FT Group), UK
  • “A must-read for anyone who wants to understand Belarus’ contemporary development challenges”.
    - Ben Slay Senior Adviser, UNDP Regional Bureau for Europe and CIS.
  • “This book is a coffee table handbook for anyone interested in the Belarusian economy”.
    - Mikhail Golosov Professor of Economics, Princeton University, USA
  • “This book is both an excellent description of the problems facing the Belorussian economy today and a prescription of the reforms needed to solve them. The author was able to marry a deep understanding of the economy in Belarus to critical analysis of reforms implemented around the world”.
    - Sergei Guriev Professor of Economics, Instituts d’etudes politiques (Science Po), France.
