It considers the role of the state, business-state relations, foreign participation, enterprise performance and technology. Besides providing much rich detail on the changing nature of the oil industry, the book also puts forward important conclusions, including the fact that in the late nineteenth century private enterprise rather than the state was the principal driver of economic development, and that after the collapse of the Soviet Union incumbent managers were more effective in running their companies than financier entrants, whose main concern was short-term gain."--Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Subject Petroleum industry and trade -- Russia -- History Petroleum industry and trade -- Soviet Union -- History Petroleum industry and trade -- Russia (Federation) -- History Petroleum industry and trade -- Russia (Federation) -- Management BUSINESS & ECONOMICS -- Industries -- General.
