A lot of time has passed since the beginning of the 90s, when the team of Yegor Gaidar undertook the reform of the Russian economy, but disputes still do not subside, how timely and correct they were. Did Gaidar save Russia from famine and civil war, or were there no such risks? Could the release of prices have been delayed, or was it inevitable? Were there any alternatives to the Gaidar team and its liberal course? What really destroyed the Soviet Union? Why hasn't a real liberal economy been built in the country and the reforms got "stuck" halfway? What awaits us in the future? .These and other important events in the history of Russia are discussed by the participants in the reforms of the 1990s. For the first time, they speak frankly about successes and failures, about the economy and power, about elections and Yeltsin, and, most importantly, about the personality of Yegor Gaidar, who will forever remain the banner of these reforms.
