Jacob Viner’s Reminiscences from the New Deal (February 11, 1953)
This paper presents and reproduces an unpublished oral history interview given by Jacob Viner in 1953. The interview released by Viner for the Columbia Oral History Project gives us a valuable opportunity to throw light on his advisory activity during the New Deal Era. In our introduction we attempt to make a critical appraisal of Viner's reminiscences and to state the contribution they can provide to our general knowledge of the period. In addition, we also attempt to find out some biographical and interpretative elements useful to understand Viner’s own vision and his contribution to important economic policy processes during the New Deal.

Foundations of the law on industrial organisations in Russia and the former republics of the USSR: 1985-1990
The industrial organisations introduced into the law of the USSR from 1987, and thereafter
into the law of the former republics, developed upon a foundation that was rooted in Soviet
law and was constructed during the period from 1985 to mid-1990.
While this study focuses on the industrial economy, certain aspects of the agrarian economy,
and in particular the early history and structure of the collective farm, are considered where
appropriate.
The thesis presents an entirely new understanding both of the nature of these developments
and of the significance of the law on ownership. The foundations of the law on industrial
organisations are conceptualised within specific heuristic models which are elaborated in an
attempt to consolidate and highlight the key steps in this history. It is argued that Soviet law
did not contain a concept of the "generic owner" or a developed understanding of the
ownership of a juridical person, in particular by multiple owners holding "ownership
interests" of that juridical person; and that their absence critically impaired a rational and
coherent structure for the foundations of the law on industrial organisations both within the
Stalin economic settlement and the new economic constitution of 1990
