From banking and telephony to media: The case of Russian digital ecosystems
World of Media. Journal of Russian Media and Journalism Studies. 2026. No. 1. P. 5–29.
This article examines media resources within Russian digital ecosystems (RDESs) for which the media industry has never been a core business and which are now actively expanding their presence in this area: Sber, MTS, and T-Technologies (T-Bank). It discusses how each of the analyzed non-media companies has transformed into a digital ecosystem in recent years, not least through the development of their own or partner media resources. It also shows the differences between the media resources within the analyzed DESs and the social media functions performed by the media resources within these ecosystems.

On the ...

Developments across it increasingly reshape political, economic and social relations far beyond its borders. Understanding these dynamics is therefore both intellectually urgent and analytically demanding, requiring an interdisciplinary approach capable of moving beyond established categories and fragmented national perspectives.

The paper is the first attempt in the Russian literature to assess returns to platform employment in the Russian labor market. The theory offers no clear predictions regarding its impact on workers’ earnings: there might be both a premium and a penalty. We distinguish three groups of workers: employees; self-employed using internet-platforms; self-employed not using ...

The classical theory of platforms describes user dependency on digital ecosystems as a
rational economic choice: users stay because it is convenient and switching is costly. But what happens
when there is nowhere to switch — not because alternatives are less convenient, but because the state
has eliminated them? This article introduces the concept of “sovereign lock-in” to ...
