Russian history through our rare, high-quality footage documenting the economic reforms led by Yegor Gaidar—the influential economist and politician who served as Acting Prime Minister in the early 1990s. Known for implementing “shock therapy,” Gaidar’s reforms reshaped Russia from a centrally planned economy to a market-oriented one.

Historical Significance

Yegor Gaidar’s Reforms were a turning point in the post-Soviet era, characterized by:

Rapid Transition: The tape details measures such as price liberalization, swift privatization of state-owned enterprises, and the introduction of the new Russian ruble in place of the Soviet currency.
Economic Impact: While these reforms dismantled the old Soviet economic system, they also triggered significant challenges—widespread inflation, economic instability, and a decline in living standards for many Russians.
Wealth and Inequality: The rapid privatization process led to a concentration of wealth among a small elite, fueling debates over income inequality and the long-term effects on Russia’s socio-economic landscape.

This footage offers viewers an in-depth look at the complexity and controversy of the reforms, providing essential context for understanding Russia’s ongoing economic evolution.
