THE INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF RUSSIA: TRANSITION TO CONTRACTUAL RAZDATOK

Abstract

The article presents key provisions of the integral-institutional paradigm, which is a new tool for analyzing institutional development. In the new paradigm, the market and razdatok (nonmarket economies) are viewed as universal development mechanisms. As a result of institutional evolution, during which the razdatok and the market improved their forms, a new reality is being formed in the 21^st century, which is no longer in opposition to market and razdatok economies, but in their integration. Integration of the market and razdatok leads to the formation of either a quasi-market model or a contractual razdatok. The key properties of these basic institutional models of the 21^st century are analyzed. The quasi-market is the reason for the rent-oriented motivation and stagnation of the economy, while the contractual razdatok is a new universal model leading to dynamic growth. The main result of the paradigm is the justification of the possibility of Russia's transition to the open access social order.
