Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring

Russia is one of the largest economies in the world; it is one of the world's most important exporters of oil and gas, and of other natural resources. Its status as one of the largest wheat and grain exporters shapes commodity prices across the globe, while Russia's enormous arms industry provides it with the means to pursue an assertive foreign policy.

This Very Short Introduction shows how Russia's economy is one of global significance, and helps explain why many enduring features, such as the heavy hand of the state and the emphasis on military-industrial production, have persisted despite the immense changes that took place after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991.
