b| A descriptive analysis of the fundamental issues involved in the economy of Soviet Central Asia, this study examines economic plans - including Gorbachev's proposed economic reforms - and considers the problems of carrying them out in what is the agricultural heartland of the USSR. The study does not attempt to provide an exhaustive, or definitive analysis of the Central Asian economy and its problems. It aims to deal with those issues that seem most important and peculiar to that region. 1| Nielsen x| 9780044451464 x| 20160527
