Trial by fire: the impact of natural disaster on attitudes toward the government in rural Russia
P. 11-22.
This study aims to explore the logic of political support under non-democratic regime by the investigation of the impact of natural disaster — the enormous wild-fires, occurred in rural Russia in the summer of 2010, on political attitudes of local population. The research exploits a natural experiment methodology. Since the wildfire spreads due to a direction of wind, i.e. by the Nature, the targets of it are totally random — a village may be burned and the neighboring one has no damage
at all. We test the effects of this exogenous variation by a survey of almost 800 respondents in 4 most suffered regions of Russia in randomly selected 34 burned and 36 unburned villages. Contrary to the conventional scholarly wisdom which suggests that natural disasters lead to blaming politicians, our study finds that in the burned villages there is a higher support for the government at all levels, namely for the United Russia Party, a village head, a governor, Prime Minister Putin and President Medvedev. This finding is robust even for the models with control for the generous governmental aid provided for the villages, which were damaged by the fires. The rise of paternalistic attitudes in the aftermath of the disaster is explained by the impact of political regime features and emotional, behavioral and cognitive experience of the people.

Один из ключевых фронтов генетизации человеческой социальности пролегает сегодня в области естественнонаучного знания. В последнее время появился целый ряд работ, претендующих на объяснение существенных форм человеческой социальности (таких, как политические установки или кооперативность) через генетическую предрасположенность. В этой статье мы поставим три вопроса: 1) насколько состоятельны такие объяснения с позиций философии науки? 2) что распространение ...

Does competition affect moral behavior? This fundamental question has been debated among leading scholars for centuries, and more recently, it has been tested in experimental studies yielding a body of rather inconclusive empirical evidence. A potential source of ambivalent empirical results on the same hypothesis is design heterogeneity—variation in true effect sizes across various reasonable ...
