Timber Auctions in the Context of the Modern Auction Theory
https://doi.org/10.32609/0042-8736-2007-3-86-94
Abstract
The article provides theoretical analysis and evaluation of the timber auctions reforms in Russia. The author shows that the mechanism of the "combined auctions", which functioned until recently, is more appropriate from the theoretical point of view (and from the point of view of the Russian practice) as compared to the officially approved format of the English auction.
