摘要:The paper gives a brief overview of the evolving fiscal federalist relations in post-Soviet Russia from the early 1990s up to recent changes in 2004. Since the initial period of disintegration and the “parade of sovereignties” in the mid-1990s, the tide has clearly turned in favour of central power. The authors describe and discuss the main administrative reforms in this area initiated during Putin’s presidency. The paper also offers a characterisation of regional finances in terms of revenues, expenditures and transfers in recent years. The tendency towards recentralising economic and political decision-making is clearly observed.
