Available in SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=2521012
This work was supported by the Economic and Social Research Council [grant number ES/J012785/1] as part of the project Emerging Technologies, Trajectories and Implications of Next Generation Innovation Systems Development in China and Russia. The project addresses research, management and policy issues related to advanced technological development in driving the growth of Rising Powers, with a focus on nanotechnology in China and This working paper presents findings from analyses of Russian nanotechnology outputs in publications and patents focusing on developments over the period 1990 through to 2012. The investigation draws on bibliometric datasets of scientific journal publications and patents and on available secondary English-language and Russian sources. The document provides both an overview and detailed analyses of nanotechnology research and innovation in Russia. The examination of publications highlights sectoral trends, leading authors and organizations, and acknowledgements to funding sources. The analysis of patents adds further evidence about patterns of invention and ownership of intellectual property emanating from research and development in Russian nanotechnology. The analyses in this paper have been undertaken to provide an information base for further research on the current state and trajectory of nanotechnology in Russia and on the broader development of Russia’s innovation system. Comparisons with Chinese publication and patent outputs can be seen in a parallel report on Nanotechnology Research and Innovation in China (2014).

Respect for and care for older relatives continue to be among the key moral norms in both traditional pre-state societies of farmers and cattle breeders and in societies with a centralized state structure. Scholarly interest in moral norms governing attitudes toward elders across cultures has led to diverse interpretations of filial piety. The aim of ...

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 ...

Individualism–collectivism (I-C), the most widely researched cultural dimension, is often equated with Hofstede’s pioneering nation scores. Concerns are growing about these scores’ validity, but subsequent research has not produced a widely accepted alternative. Here, we offer a refined theoretical conceptualization of I-C, we systematically reevaluate the validity of Hofstede’s I-C scores, and we report the ...

Numerous studies focus on the tightness–looseness (TL) dimension of national culture, reporting important implications for business and management. However, the main TL measure has generated a number of theoretical and empirical concerns. It likely reflects unfounded national auto-stereotypes, the conceptual boundary between TL and individualism–collectivism (IC) is blurred, respondents in different societies have different TL-related ...

Contemporary theories of emotion emphasize the dual role of emotions as both personal
experiences and communicative signals during social interactions. However, the impact of
macro-level societal structures on emotional expression remains underexplored. This study
investigates the expression-experience discrepancy for self-reported emotions across nations,
focusing on how societal development relates to this discrepancy, which captures expressivity.
Using meta-analysis and multilevel modeling ...

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 ...

For decades, life expectancy in Eastern Europe has lagged behind that in Western Europe, although the gap has narrowed since the mid-2000s. We examined the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on these long-term trends by estimating and decomposing East-West differences in excess mortality and life expectancy losses. Regression models were used to explore the contribution ...

We examined how language affects moral judgments in a non-WEIRD population. Tanzanian
participants (N = 103) evaluated utilitarian agents in moral dilemmas, either in native Chagga or
foreign Swahili. Agents were rated significantly more moral and braver when evaluated in a
foreign language. Bravery predicted morality more strongly in the foreign language than in the
native language. Indirect sacrifices ...

В данной работе рассматриваются понятия взрослости и взросления как отдельного этапа в рамках жизненного цикла с опорой на демографическую и социологическую литературу. Обсуждается вопрос о том, как трансформируются в настоящее время модели взросления. А в эмпирической части делается попытка ответить на следующие вопросы: действительно ли молодые поколения (миллениалы и зумеры) откладывают события, связанные с взрослением, ...

В статье рассматриваются причины появления новой экономической социологии, обратившейся на рубеже 1980-х годов к изучению рынков и других тем, которые до этого традиционно считались экономическими, отчасти в ответ на нарастающее вторжение экономистов в области социальных наук. Выявляются принципиальные различия подходов, применяемых в экономической теории и экономической социологии, в том числе, к исследованию одних и тех ...
