| Abstract: | This paper explores the possible contextual factors that drove some individuals to lead, and others to join the pro-secessionist rebellion in the 2013-2014 conflict in Eastern Ukraine. We expand on the existing rational choice literature on revolutionary participation and rebellious movements by building a contextual choice model accounting for both cost-benefit and behavioral considerations taken by Pro-Russian militants and rebels in the region of Donbass. Our model generates predictions about the characteristics of the socio-political-cultural context that are most likely to ignite and sustain hierarchical rebel movements similar to those in Ukraine. |

| Abstract: | This article analyses the association between personal values and the acceptability of corruption in Russia, France, Germany, and Latvia. Several studies show that cultural values can be related to the level of corruption in the countries at the societal level. We look at the following two questions: (1) Can universal personal values influence the acceptability of corruption for an individual? (2) Is such an influence the same in different countries? A specialized methodology for assessing the acceptability of corruption for an individual was developed and validated. Individual values were assessed using the methodology developed by Schwartz. The studies were conducted in Russia (N=269), France (N=108), Germany (N=101) and Latvia (N=178). The results show that individual values have more inverse correlations with the acceptance of corruption than direct ones. In other words, values play an important role in limiting corrupt behaviour, but not in stimulating it. We discuss the correlations between personal values and the acceptability of corruption and analyse the psychology of these relationships |

| Abstract: | The article deals with the dynamics of resources, factors and efficiency of agriculture for the period from 1991 to 2014, with the release of the individual sub-periods, taking into account the period of implementation of government programs. There have been analyzed the dynamics of resource reproduction and conditions of reproduction by groups of Russian regions. The question of price disparities in agriculture, commodity production and the dynamics of the structure by types of farms has been considered. There are some approaches to the analysis of the dynamics of reproduction of Agriculture of the Russian economy, including in the regional context in the article. According to the analysis it’s noted that there are positive trends in the economy of Agriculture of Russia. Extended reproduction occurs in several areas of production, and in some regions of the resource potential of agriculture has been increased considerably. Positive trends have continued in recent years, during the inter-state sanctions and conditions of import substitution. In comparison with other types of economic activity agriculture has stable growth. However, the accumulated negative trends of the past have not overcome. In most regions continue to shrink the crop area, the number of cattle. It is shows the great need of more detailed analysis of the efficiency of production, gross and net value added, wages, incomes of workers, profitability of production by region and by type of producers. In the methodical plan it was noted the need to pay particular attention to the results of the upcoming Russian Agricultural Census 2016, which will allow to trace the changes in the Russian agriculture in the last ten years since the 2006 All-Russia agricultural census. |

| Abstract: | For Russia, the development of relations with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has a special political and economic importance. They are designed to help create favorable conditions for the security of Russia and its most important communications, and for the modernization of the whole region of Eastern Siberia and the Far East. One of the issues of further development of relations of the Russian Federation with the ASEAN countries is that in the business of Russia and the Association of the communities do not have sufficient information about each other, thus allowing the participants of foreign economic activity of relevant information in order to promote Russian exports and investment projects. This paper presents an overview of the foreign trade and trade policy in South-East Asia. |

| Abstract: | Student friendship networks can be considered as social capital, which is known to be a very useful resource during university and after it. Several empirical studies have examined static models of student behaviour in social networks. In this study we analyse the dynamic changes of student social connections. We use original longitude data of student social ties from one Russian university. Data was collected within the framework of a research project of the International Research Laboratory for Institutional Analysis of Economic Reforms. To investigate factors influencing the evolution of social ties during university probit regressions were tested. We found that students with similar characteristics such as gender and academic achievement are more likely to become friends and continue to be friends. Both studying in the same group and living in a dormitory increase the likelihood of being friends. We also found a transitivity effect. We observe a positive effect of having common friend on friendship ties. We also notice a positive link between reciprocity and friendship stability. |

| Abstract: | This study is devoted to the analysis of two empirical approaches to modeling inflationary processes in Russia and abroad: the cost approach, and the Phillips curve. The authors examine the application of these approaches for the analysis of inflation factors in different countries, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. Both approaches are used for the analysis of inflation in Russia in the 2000s. As part of the cost approach, a model for the consumer price index is estimated. Besides, various Phillips curve modifications are estimated for the consumer price index and various measures of economic activity (output gap, unemployment, unit labor costs). It is shown that the inflationary process in Russia is better described by the hybrid Phillips curve with output gap. |

| Abstract: | A significant post-Soviet agricultural trend is the rise of super-large scale agroholdings. The emergence of these farming companies has occasioned a debate on whether such farms are economically and socially optimal: are they are more efficient than smaller scale farms, and are they squeezing out smaller producers from the market? In this debate, 'agroholding' is used as a blanket term covering a diversity of different types of farms. This was adequate when this trend was first emerging, but now it is increasingly inadequate to describe the many different types of farms with different orientations that are developing. With the purpose of better defining different kinds of large-scale farms in the former Soviet Union, we propose in this research to develop a critical and empirically grounded typology of different farm companies, differentiating farms according to degree and kind of integration (horizontal or vertical), main orientation (primary crop production or food processing), and origin of capital (foreign, local, stock market, private equity). These distinctions will help to distinguish more successful business models from less successful, provide greater understanding of recent trends in the agricultural sector in the region, and help understand the future role such farm organizations might have in food production. |

| Abstract: | Content and General Description (PDF) In 2015, the FDI inflow to the Central, East and Southeast European (CESEE) countries fell to its lowest level since 2008, while global FDI recovered. The decline was especially severe in the EU Member States of Central and Eastern Europe, as well as in Russia, while expansions were recorded in the Western Balkans and Turkey. The first part of this report provides an analysis of the 2015 FDI trends in 23 countries, highlighting uneven developments. New features of FDI have appeared recently in the Central European countries, which are deeply integrated into multinational production networks. FDI inflows fluctuate more wildly than before and have lost their close connection with economic growth or changes in the business environment. Capital relations between subsidiaries and parent companies have become more complex capital reserves, losses and profits are shifted around within multinational conglomerates in various forms of FDI and income. Moreover, tax optimisation by multinational enterprises has become one of the main factors determining the economic sector or the immediate host country chosen by investors when they reorganise their assets into holdings. Round-tripping domestic capital distorts the FDI statistics, of Russia in particular. Special sections of this report analyse the Russian FDI collapse, the Chinese expansion, and the position of Austria as investor and investment destination of CESEE countries. A further section presents new features of greenfield investments in 2015 a declining number of projects and lower capital investments that increasingly focus on the manufacturing sector. Forecasts for FDI in 2016 point downwards again, because the international environment may not support capacity expansions, and also economic growth in most of the CESEE will be less robust than last year. The second part of this report contains two sets of tables Tables I cover FDI flow and stock data, FDI flows by components and related income; Tables II provide detailed FDI data by economic activity and by country. The main sources of data are the central banks of the individual Central, East and Southeast European countries. Methodological explanations highlight important recent changes in reporting standards and their application in the wiiw FDI Database and wiiw FDI Report. The wiiw FDI Database is available online This online access with a modern query tool supports easy search and download of data. The wiiw FDI Database contains the full set of FDI data with time series starting form 1990 as far as available. Access to wiiw FDI Database |

| Abstract: | In the middle of the XX century, the conception of the positive impact of income inequality on economic growth. Representatives of the classical approach is explained by the fact that the concentration of wealth allows you to invest in the economy, while the redistribution policy limits the possibilities for economic development. However, on the other hand, there are a number of channels through which inequality can have a negative impact on economic growth: credit market imperfections, the threat to social and political stability, limiting investment in human capital, etc. In this paper we will try to confirm or deny the existence of the relationship between economic growth and income inequality. |

| Abstract: | This paper is devoted to the multidimensional analysis of the effects of public sector on the economic growth. We estimate a threshold share of government consumption and government expenditure, which maximizes economic growth in the group of countries, including Russia. This paper answers the question about the impact of total public expenditure, as well as their individual components on total factor productivity in developing countries. It was found that government expenditure on defense and education influence on the total factor productivity growth is positive. We identify threshold values of the financial sector development level, beyond which there is change in the relationship between financial sector development and economic growth. Public expenditure growth has negative impact on the financial sector threshold development level in the long term. We find that, if the inflation exceeds 6%, then further increase in the growth rate of consumer prices reduces the growth rate of GDP per capita. |

| Abstract: | groups of former Soviet states, designated CIS, Developed and Developing. Using Orbis data, we provide within-group and between-group results on the effects of outward FDI (OFDI) and inward FDI (IFDI) on firm-level innovation. As the most notable finding, OFDI firms innovate more than IFDI firms, which in turn innovate more than non-FDI firms. The innovation effect of OFDI is the largest for firms from the Developing economies, followed by the Developed and CIS countries. The innovation effect of IFDI is the largest for firms from the Developing economies, followed by the CIS and Developed countries. FDI to and from Europe have the largest impact on innovation; this holds across country groups. |
