From the Paper:

"The plan implemented in Russia to promote globalization was called shock therapy (Saunders 2001). The plan was first implemented in 1992 and began with the elimination of price controls on the majority of the goods sold in the country. The purpose of the shock therapy strategy was to develop a market economy in Russia quickly (Saunders 2001). Strategists believed that freeing prices and liberalizing trade policies stimulate competition. In addition, privatization was encouraged in an effort to create private property with all its attendant behavioral benefits for enterprises."
