Socio-Economic Issues of Agrarian Regions
The unprecedented transformation of Russian economy has changed the formal and informal socio-economic institutions. Especially strong crisis has ridden the regions, which do not comprise the industries or companies bringing large rental revenue. Normally, they are the agrarian regions such as the Kurganskaya Oblast (the Ural Federal District). The paper discusses the socio-economic problems of such regions. Acuteness of the problems could be explained by a low efficiency of agrarian enterprises, and the prospects of their development are connected with the new approaches to choosing their organizational structures as well as with the governmental impact on the formal and informal socio-economic institutions.
