Der dritte Teil der dreiteiligen Untersuchung über die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung in den Mitgliedsstaaten der GUS nach dem Einsetzen der marktwirtschaftlichen Transformation behandelt die Entwicklung in den zentralasiatischen Republiken. Alle besitzen sie bergbauliche und teilweise energetische Rohstoffe und einen ausgedehnten Agrarsektor, aber nur eine unterentwickelte verarbeitende Industrie. Vom Produktionsrückgang waren sie in unterschiedlichem Maße betroffen. In Kasachstan und Kirgisien hat sich die im Vergleich zu den anderen zentralasiatischen GUS- Mitgliedsstaaten ausgeprägte marktwirtschaftliche Orientierung bislang nicht in einen Wirtschaftsaufschwung ummünzen lassen.
