Straipsnio tikslas – remiantis įmonių inovacijų strategijų tipų analize nustatyti, kurios inovacijų strategijos yra labiausiai būdingos pereinamosios ekonomikos šalims. Empiriniam tyrimui atlikti remtasi 2008 metų Visuomenės inovacijų tyrimo (angl. Community Innovation Survey)1 mikrolygmens duomenimis. Duomenys apima beveik 128 tūkst. organizacijų inovacines veiklas (pvz., MTEP, įrengimų įsigijimas, žinių įsigijimas, personalo mokymai), inovacijų tipus (pvz., produkto, proceso, organizacijos, marketingo), inovacijų tikslus (pvz., pagerinti tarpusavio komunikaciją, užimti naują rinką, padidinti gamybinį pajėgumą, padidinti lankstumą, greičiau atsakyti į klientų poreikius), inovacijų pobūdį (pvz., inovacijos, plėtotos įmonėje bendradarbiaujant ar imituojant; produktas naujas rinkai ar įmonei). Analizuota 60 inovacinę veiklą apibūdinančių kintamųjų, taip pat tyrime naudotas organizacijų veiklos sektorius nusakantis kintamasis bei įmonių konkurencingumo rodikliai. Nustatyti šeši inovacijų strategijų tipai, jų raiškos šešiolikoje Europos valstybių, strategijų sektoriniai reprezentatyvumai ir sąryšiai su įmonių konkurencingumu. Galiausiai pagrįsta, kokios inovacijų strategijos ir kodėl yra labiausiai būdingos pereinamosios ekonomikos šalims.Reikšminiai žodžiai: inovacijų strategija, įmonės konkurencingumas, pereinamoji ekonomika, ūkio sektorius.Organization-level innovation strategies: types and extentInga Stankevičė SummaryThe paper is aimed at the identification of innovation strategies that are most typical of transition economies. For the investigation of innovation strategies, Community Innovation Survey (CIS) 2008 microdata from 16 European countries, collected by Eurostat, were used. The data include innovation activities (e. g. R&D, acquisition of machinery equipment or external knowledge, training, etc.), types of innovations (e.g. product, process, organisational, marketing, etc.), objectives of innovating (e. g. to improve communication and information sharing, to increase production capacity or flexibility, to enter new markets, etc.), innovation complexion (e. g. developed by the enterprise or enterprise group or developed other enterprises and/or institutions; product new-to market or new-to firm, etc.). The analysis includes 60 such vari­ables; in addition, the variable that describes the sectoral embeddedness was used, and two firm competitiveness indicators were also employed. Six innovation strategies were identified, as well as their extents in 16 European countries, their sec­toral coverage and their linkages with firm com­petitiveness. Ultimately, it is substantiated which innovation strategies and why are most typical of transition economies.Keywords: innovation strategy, firm competi­tiveness, transition economy, industrial sector.

By employing the methodology developed by the OECD the paper assesses the degree of revenue decentralization in Russia in comparison with other post-communist European countries. The paper provides theoretical arguments underpinning fiscal decentralization, analyzes the composition of subnational government revenues, the level of regional and local tax autonomy and types of intergovernmental fiscal transfers. The analysis presents the composition of revenues depending on the degree of subnational and local government control. In comparison with other transition countries fiscal decentralization in Russia is relatively low. It is concluded that Russia's public finance reform has not progressed towards providing greater fiscal autonomy for regional and local governments.

The limited ability of neoclassical "mainstream" to explain deep fundamental shifts in economic structures of the present day world determines the renaissance of alternative schools of economic theory, including Marxism. The article is aimed to show theoretical concepts of modern Russian neomarxism, which has a potential to explain the contradictions of the capitalist globalization, the tendencies of forming new types of socioeconomic relations, of the specific forms of transition economies in the post-socialist countries and basic causes of the birth and collapse of the socialist system.

The article considers strategic issues of modernization of the transition economy. The analysis is based on the methodology of the World Economic Forum where special attention is paid to the sequence of the transformation stages. The main conclusion is that modernization should combine implementation of the governance mechanisms with the beneficial use of comparative advantages of the national culture. In fact, modernization of the transition economy should be evolutionary. It is precisely this course of development that is relevant for Azerbaijan which has successfully upgraded its economy in the recent years.

Why have many transition economies succeeded by pursuing policies which are so different from the radical economic liberalization (shock therapy) that is normally credited for the economic success of countries of Central Europe? First, optimal policies are context dependent, they are specific for each stage of development and what worked in Slovenia cannot be expected to work in Mongolia. Second, even for the countries with the same level of development reforms that are necessary to stimulate growth are different; they depend on the previous history and on the path chosen. The reduction of government expenditure as a share of GDP did not undermine significantly the institutional capacity of the state in China, but in Russia and other CIS countries it turned out to be ruinous. The art of the policymaker is to create markets without causing government failure, as happened in many CIS countries.
