‘Balkan Hospitality Opens Doors: Studying Dialects on the Verge of Extinction
You cannot study spoken dialects from books. Instead, you need to go to a village, seek out its elders, and earn the trust of local residents before you can record hours of spontaneous stories. This is how Natalia Muravleva, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, conducts her research. Her internship in Serbia continued her long-standing study of dialects spoken by Macedonian settlers. In this interview, she discusses how diaspora cultural centres help researchers reach informants, why native speakers need to be interviewed only in their own language (otherwise, as she puts it, they may 'break'), and how a single field season helped her finalise her monograph. She also shares warm memories of autumn in Belgrade and of colleagues with whom grammar can be discussed in three languages at once.

Scientists Train Neural Network to Generate Process Plans from 3D Models
Researchers at the HSE FCS AI and Digital Science Institute have developed CAD2TechSpec, a framework that converts 3D models of mechanical parts into machining process plans—step-by-step instructions for machine tools. The solution aims to reduce the time required for the design and preparation of technical process documentation in mechanical engineering, aircraft manufacturing, and other high-tech industries. The study findings have been published in PeerJ Computer Science.

Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

Modeling Social Self-Organization and Historical Dynamics. Agrarian Society

P. 309–335.
Malkov S., Kovaleva N., Leonid Grinin, Korotayev A.

This chapter presents the results of applying the set of basic models described in the previous chapter to model the dynamics of an agrarian society. Both interactions in the “society–nature” system and social interactions within society between the main social groups (including economic and political interactions) are considered. It is shown that agrarian society is characterized by cyclical demographic and economic dynamics due to the limited resource base (primarily limited land resources) and the low level of technological development. Based on the modeling of social interactions, the main structural and functional features of a typical agrarian society are revealed. It is shown that in agrarian societies, the mechanisms of social self-organization mainly lead to the formation of social structures of the so-called X-type.

Malthusian Cycle
Korotayev A., , in: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Political Behavior.: Thousand Oaks: Sage, 2017. Ch. M P. 458–462.
Malthusian cycles are political-demographic cycles that were typical for complex pre-modern societies. Due to a number of mechanisms, within the pre-modern social systems (and some would argue even in the 21st century) population growth tended to produce a set of imbalances and strains, eventually resulting in political-demographic collapses  and substantial population decline. After stabilization, the ...

Ichkitidze Y., , in: Industry 4.0: Entrepreneurship and Structural Change in the New Digital Landscape.: Springer, 2017. Ch. 6 P. 137–153.
In this paper, we suggest an approach to the study of the financial instability based on the model of evolutionary processes. In the first place, we present some empirical facts that confirm that the stock’s price dynamics is better described by the Markov switching model rather than by the pure random walk. Further, using the ...

Labour institutions and vulnerability of developing economies under capital inflows
Matveenko V., Economic Research-Ekonomska Istraživanja 2016 Vol. 29 No. 1 P. 888–903
The paper argues that labour institutions, such as efficiency wages or their analogues more typical for the former planned economies, can aggravate a vulnerability of developing economies caused by windfalls, such as additional oil income or foreign aid. The economy is modelled by use of the, so-called, fK endogenous growth model based on microfoundations describing ...

Китайским властям надо быть готовым к некоторому риску социально-политической дестабилизации и постараться предпринять некоторые превентивные меры, которые могли бы данный риск смягчить (возможно, включая и поощрение деятельности брачных агентств, помогающих китайским мужчинам найти брачных партнеров заграницей). Вместе с тем, очевидно, что для долгосрочного фундаментального решения данной серьезной проблемы китайскому руководству необходимо как можно скорее отказываться ...

The recent decade has witnessed remarkable success in various aspects of socioeconomic development in Tropical Africa. However, contrary to the “development is the best contraceptive” expectations, fertility in many countries remains stalled, frequently at very high levels of 5 and more children per woman. This actualizes the risks of population explosions, which are particularly sharp, ...
