"This work clearly explains the sources of business law in Russia and the way in which the law supports entrepreneurial activity. It will be an important tool of understanding for Western scholars and testimony to the importance given to the law as a mode of business regulation in contemporary Russia."
"This book fills a gap in the English language literature on Russian business law. It provides an important starting point for comparative corporate law scholars and corporate lawyers by making the foundational rules on Russian business law easily accessible in English. Hopefully, this book will inspire more comparative legal research on Russian Business Law in the future."
"This book demonstrates to the world the business law of Russia and may promote economic and commercial engagement between Russia and other countries. Meanwhile, the book has great significance to the international trade and investment, and economic globalization. Therefore, we really look forward to the publication of this book."
"The chapter on "Business Litigation" includes a useful section on the Russian judicial system, including the jurisdiction and functions of the Arbitration Courts. The chapter also looks into the arbitral tribunal system (which is not the same as the Arbitration Courts) in the Russian Federation. The chapter on "Contracts" can function as a convenient starting point for anyone seeking a comprehensive summary of the law relating to commercial and other contracts. I especially benefitted from the section on sale of goods contracts in the Russian Federation."

Glossary
Foreword
We’ve not had the pleasure of meeting in person, but Professors Evgeny Gubin and Alexander Molotnikov have done me a great service in assembling this thorough and readable text along with Levon Garslian, my former student at the University of Pennsylvania, who excellently managed all the book edition process and co-authored its introduction. As a teacher of “Private Equity in Emerging Markets” at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and a vocal advocate for global entrepreneurship and private sector approaches to economic development, I am often asked the question when promoting activity in a given country, “What about the rule of law?” As it relates to many countries, it is a fair question. In the case of Russia it is not. On the surface, it might seem an appropriate question but it originates from a cascade of misinformation and misunderstanding about the Russian system and an ignorance of the vast progress that has been made since the Russian Federation was established just a quarter-century ago. Every question, of course, is a statement. The Russian rule of law question is indicative of a reluctance to invest within Russia or collaborate with a Russian company. This reticence is born not of experience, but from past echoes of geopolitical tensions and misguided assumptions about how Russia administers business law and adjudicates legal conflicts between parties, perhaps reinforced by prevailing international concerns. This book provides any individual or company with the insights necessary to do business in Russia on a foundation of knowledge and with confidence that a sophisticated system of commercial justice will apply.
The book is rich in examples that support my enthusiasm. For example, the overview of business legislation chapter successfully guides the reader through how Russia’s Continental legal tradition is driven by statutes and how these СКАЧАТЬ
