Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1990s the Russian Federation implemented mass privatization with swift ownership changes in many industries. A notable exception was the coal sector, one the world's largest, which was in deep crisis and unable to function without massive subsidies. The government undertook a far-reaching program of sector restructuring, closing heavily loss-making mines and cutting subsidies. The positive impact of the restructuring program led to a slow but sustained improvement in the coal industry's attractiveness to private investors. By the end of 2001, some 77 percent of coal output was accounted for by private operators.Artemiev and Haney provide an overview of the privatization of the Russian coal industry. They review the salient aspects of the government's privatization policy as it evolved over the years and look at the reasons for the successes and pitfalls encountered along the way. The authors describe in detail specific procedures and methods of sale. They provide a profile of the new owners of the industry and reasons for a different approach to privatizing an industry with a record of serious social, environmental, and labor problems, and look at the risks ahead.This paper - a product of the Private Sector Advisory Services Department and the Infrastructure and Energy Department, Europe and Central Asia Region - is part of a larger effort to evaluate Bank interventions that have a significant private sector development component.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russian coal sector today faces challenges in the form of global decarbonization, sanctions, and difficulties in retaining market access and competitiveness. This new market environment warrants an examination of what lessons can be drawn from the past tribulations of one of Russia’s most iconic and strategically important industries. This book analyzes the Russian coal industry developments in historical and political contexts, including those of energy transition. The key tenets of contemporary dialogue between Russia and those who advocate for a speedy energy transition to phase out coal are presented. The book addresses the question of the coal industry as a sacrifice for the sake of Russia’s rapprochement with the West. The contribution of this book, therefore, is filling the gap between two large research inquiries – climate change mitigation and energy transition on the one hand, and the existing large coal industry of a given country on the other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text describes and accounts for the patterns of industrial relations which have emerged in the UK coal industry since privatization in 1994. In doing so, it also addresses wider issues relating to industrial relations and ownership. Labour relations practices evident within the industry are compared with those which prevailed during the final years of nationalization, and a series of case studies demonstrates that both continuity and change are visible. Whilst continuity with the patterns of labour relations established during the final decade of public ownership is shown to have had negative implications for organized labour within the industry however, the changes associated with privatization are demonstrated to have been a more ambivalent force.

Book excerpt: Privatizing Russia offers an inside look at one of the most remarkable reforms in recent history. Having started on the back burner of Russian politics in the fall of 1991, mass privatization was completed on July 1, 1994, with two thirds of the Russian industry privately owned, a rapidly rising stock market, and 40 million Russians owning company shares. The authors, all key participants in the reform effort, describe the events and the ideas driving privatization. They argue that successful reformers must recognize privatization as a process of depoliticizing firms in the face of massive opposition: making the firm responsive to market rather than political influences. The authors first review the economic theory of property rights, identifying the political influence on firms as the fundamental failure of property rights under socialism. They detail the process of coalition building and compromise that ultmately shaped privatization. The main elements of the Russian program -- corporatization, voucher use, and voucher auctions -- are described, as is the responsiveness of privatized firms to outside investors. Finally, the market values of privatized assets are assessed for indications of how much progress the country has made toward reforming its economy. In many respects, privatization has been a great success. Market concepts of property ownership and corporate management are shaking up Russian firms at a breathtaking pace, creating powerful economic and political stimuli for continuation of market reforms. At the same time, the authors caution, the political landscape remains treacherous as old-line politicians reluctantly cede their property rights and authority over firms.
