Abstract
"Politics and economy in contemporary Russia: a conflict at the crossroads" presents a recent discussion among a group of leading Russia's experts in sociology and conflict studies. The debate had centered at following issues : Does the current economic development of the country drift in the right d irection or the governments' course should be seriously corrected? What was the core of the original reforms idea? What is the social base for the rec ent economic change? How does come to surface the clash of economic transfo rmations subjects? What is the role of political elites in bringing about a nd overcoming the current crisis of Russia's economy?
