Brief analysis of some of the most important problems and trends in Russia’s social-political development, including its regional dimension. If the government is smart, it can adjust to objective realities, for example, by reversing the “Center-Regions” pendulum swing toward the regions, and maximizing its benefits. A less smart government would try to resist objective processes and, like a miser, would end up paying twice, if only there is something left in the treasury to pay. If not, another government will come to replace the one currently in power.

Within this environment, we investigate how logrolling shapes policy outcomes. We establish three main results. First, an essentially ...

Most studies investigating involvement in collective action in environmental protection relate it either to general sociocultural attitudes in society at the macro level or to the strategic actions of eco-activists in specific cases at the micro level. In the first case, this makes it possible to explain variations in environmental actions between different societies/countries; in ...

Длительное время своеобразным «барометром» состояния «исключительности» транснациональных отношений в регионе был Арктический совет – центральный межправительственный форум, призванный де-юре содействовать международному сотрудничеству и поддержанию ...
