Yegor Gaidar (1956-2009) - will remain forever in people's memory, not only because of the results of activities in government posts, but the beyond the number of curses that do not meet the real scale of the identity of their recipient.
In this sense, the critics are effective popularizers hated them heroes.The intensity of the emitted hatred forming an opinion about Gaidar as a global reformer, while the only event held by his government, is the liberalization of prices, not too successfully and consistently carried out.
reputation and track record of most active opponents do not allow to expect other polemical methods other than a dirty battlefield hysteria and the railway station.It is surprising that this category was Andrei Illarionov.
doubt the competence of the criticism can not be.It Illarionov in 1996 first publicly predicted the coming default.Putin's first term, widely recognized as highly successful in terms of economic development, Illarionov shaped economic policy of the presidential team.Especially incomprehensible to the true reasons for the distinguished economist to the protracted controversy with the deceased reformer and his supporters.
The heap of texts are really valuable comments are lost in the stream of verbal garbage, and juggling.Who would doubt that the world-class financier Boris Fedorov is a more efficient conductor of tight fiscal policy than the policy-conformist Gaidar?But can be a subject of serious study emotional statements Gaidar, Fedorov, Chernomyrdin about each other?If the life they did not consider it necessary to disclose such information, why Illarionov decided to appoint them himself executor?Much attention is paid to the analysis of moral experience Alexander Shokhin, Gaidar in the care of the affected government.That's really whose opinion is not interesting.Professional conformist, a wonderful sense of humor of any bosses on Silaeva to Putin, is not shy to talk about the insensitivity of Gaidar.Given the devastating effects of stay Shokhin led economic bloc of the government in 1994 (the collapse of budgetary discipline, the inflationary explosion, "Black Tuesday"), rather a matter of respect principles Gaidar initially not too tsenivshego such a specialist.
Here are some statements worthy of the most notorious critics "dashing 90ยป:
- the threat of famine in '91 there was no wheat was in bulk, at least feed the whole of Europe;
- the threat of famine in '91 was not just the entire budget Gaidar squandered on aid to Cuba;
- financial stability, which dreamed of Boris Fyodorov, was not achieved solely through the fault of Gaidar - embezzler budget,
etc.etc.
amazing how much effort the author spent in vain.And it could give some advice about the opposition's strategy for the March 4 elections.
