Abstract
This paper is devoted to the debate on economic development in Russia after the abolition of serfdom in 1861 and focuses on the contribution of Yuli Zhukovsky, a self-taught economist. Based on his interpretation of western ideas, he saw material conditions as the crucial factor of economic development and suggested a set of measures that would ensure the improvement of the country’s productivity. Zhukovsky’s eclectic views differed from the ideas of the radical intelligentsia and the liberals, thus making his contribution unique.
