Shattering a number of myths that have long persisted in the West and in Russia, The Siberian Curse explains why Russia's greatest assets-its gigantic size and Siberia's natural resources-are now the source of one of its greatest weaknesses. For seventy years, driven by ideological zeal and the imperative to colonize and industrialize its vast frontiers, communist planners forced people to live in Siberia. They did this in true totalitarian fashion by using the GULAG prison system and slave labor to build huge factories and million-person cities to support them.
