Description
This text provides an account of Russian law and the Russian legal system. The author places Russian law in the context of other legal systems and makes a thorough examination of the the country's emerging legal institutions, procedural and substantive law. Butler's emphasis is on post-Soviet law reform and on the creation of a democratic, market-orientated legal framework which seeks to attract foreign investment. Chapters such as those on entrepreneurial law, securities regulation, banking and insurance, taxation, and the status of foreigners and foreign investment law should make this volume useful for those advising potential investors in Russia and the CIS. For those with a more academic interest in Russian law, there are also chapters on Russian legal history and legal theory, together with a detailed guide to relevant publications and materials.
