Abstract

When the issues of land privatization are considered from the point of view of the situation existing in agriculture, it becomes evident that the currently practiced approaches to privatization are not properly geared to such factors as the actual state of the objects of privatization or the need to address directly a certain economic issue, and do not rely on international best practices. We believe it is absolutely counter-productive even to talk about land privatization in Russia until its mechanisms and the risks associated with its implementation are made clear, and until a special body for managing this country’s land resources is created.
