Abstract

President Putin in his address to the Parliament in May 2003 called for a doubling of Russia's GDP in the next decade. The dynamics of GDP per capita (with all its imperfections as an indicator of living standards) is often seen as a measure of the success of the government's economic policies in supporting the private sector. As shown in Figure 1 and Table 1, this issue is of particular relevance in Russia because of the large financial losses of the population in 1992-1998, when production fell by a cumulative 40%, which led to a catastrophic decline in living standards.
