The exodus of Western manufacturing corporations from Russia –the beginning
Post-Communist Economies. 2024. Vol. 36. No. 6. P. 659–671.
This study aims to depict the dramatic exit of Western multinational corporations (MNCs) from Russia after the escalation of the Russia–Ukraine conflict and the beginning of military action between the two countries. The beginning of intensive military actions between Russia and Ukraine served as a pretext for strengthening Western sanctions that now not only include sanctions against Russian physical and legal persons but also the ban on trade with Russia, the ban on financial transactions, and strict control of value appropriation by foreign corporate centres of Western MNCs in Russia. We demonstrate how Western corporations selected candidates for divestment under pressure from their home countries and the strengthening demands of the Russian government towards both sides of the deal with foreign industrial assets. Moreover, the present study refutes several popular postulates on foreign divestment and indicates several promising directions for future studies.

Trade sanctions generate asymmetric shocks in developing economies, reshaping their integration into global value chains (GVCs). Using a gravity framework covering 68 developing countries over the period 2000–2021, this paper examines how sanctions affect forward and backward GVC linkages. We find that sanctions significantly reduce both dimensions of GVC participation: backward linkages suffer deeper and ...
