administrative management muddle still more the economic ties that are already complicated and, instead of resolving the existing contradictions, they bring about new ones. The circulation sphere (its predominant part) existing in the economic system does not contain the basic elements which are necessary for the market to function, namely, a free choice of partners in the purchase and sale and the price formation on the basis of supply and demand. Consequently, the circulation sphere cannot regularly affect either the production or the consumption by means of redistribution of money via a market mechanism, and, therefore, requires the administrative management, and this is what we are returning to today. In the existing economic system, there are no conditions necessary for the market formation of prices. First, there is no economic necessity for it and the enterprises are not interested in the maximum output of production and its sale on the market. This is the situation not only at state enterprises but also in cooperatives, small and rented enterprises, etc. There are many reasons for this, but, if we generalize them, we can see that they have much in common, namely, restrictions imposed on the growth of the income of an enterprise, including the wages, the possibility of enjoying a happy existence without any efforts to increase the quantity of output. This situation makes it impossible to solve the problem of deficit. Second, structurally the economic system is a collection of industrial monopolies. The first attempts to subdivide the established industrial structures show the futility of entertaining such an approach, since, in this case, the separate parts of the formerly existing single branches do not compete. They either continue to supplement one another in a single technological process of the output of end production (engineering branches) or continue to function in the existing sectors of supply of their production in the national economy. The creation of small enterprises and cooperatives (which do not strive for a considerable increase in the supply as the only source of incomes and profits) will not solve the problems facing us. This process of formation of competitive economic structure in the national economy will last long, whereas the disruption of the existing economic ties will, in the final analysis, lead to losses rather than profits. I see the way out of this situation in the development of alternative forms of enterprises (including those based on the functioning state enterprises) without waiting when the economy passes the long way of maturing by itself. It is necessary to reach the level of the world market by integrating into the world economic system. A gradual transition to the convertibility of the rouble, the internal market open for foreign investments (with the corresponding taxation) can shorten the transition period considerably. The goal of creation of a competitive structure is not the formation of collections of different kinds of enterprises which are in constant combat with one another (losing essential forces and means in the process of this struggle), but in the creation of enterprises which would strive for an increase in the realization of their production and reducing the losses to a level below the average (with due account taken of the level of the world market) and thus compete with each other. 134
