Please take a look at the article Vladimir Ashurkov and I wrote for Harvard Business Review. Ungoverned State-Owned Companies. It sets out our realistic, concrete program for what needs to be done with corporate governance in state-owned companies to turn them into something reasonably decent within a sensible timeframe. We also separately address the popular argument that everything should be privatized immediately and that this will somehow solve everything. If, before writing "My God, what nonsense," someone actually reads the article, we would be very grateful. And if you also have substantive feedback or criticism, that would be even better. Thanks in advance.
