Answer:

A) a shift from government-owned to privately-owned business

Step-by-step explanation:

After the fall of the Soviet Union, the Russian government wanted to turn formerly state-owned companies into profitable, independent government corporations. For this, a significant part of state property was passed on to citizens free of charge.

The process of mass privatization in Russia refers to the series of post-Soviet economic reforms that led to the transfer of ownership of Russian state assets.

Privatization by vouchers began in early 1992 and was completed exactly 13 years ago on June 30, 1994.

From 1992 to 1994, ownership of 15,000 companies was transferred from state control through the voucher program. This period has already been described as "the most cataclysmic peacetime economic collapse of an industrial country in history."
