Work schedule structures individual life and matches biological and social rhythms in various ways.

Having unique data we investigate informal employment and “envelope payments” as additional costs of worker displacement in the Russian labor market. In particular we analyze whether displaced workers experience
more involuntary informal employment than their non-displaced counterparts. Our main results confirm
our contention that displacement entraps some of the workers in involuntary informal employment. Those who quit, ...

Социально-экономическое развитие территории – от отдельного муниципалитета до региона, страны и межгосударственных коалиций – определяется огромным количеством факторов, условий и обстоятельств. История, природа, географическое положение, ранее принятые и реализованные решения в тесном взаимодействии с культурными особенностями населения образуют колоссальный веер возможностей и траекторий такого развития.
В этой связи чужой успешный опыт часто мало применим на практике. Он, скорее, показывает нам, в каких направлениях можно развиваться и какие возможные подходы целесообразно рассматривать при выборе своего пути. Например, сегодня ...
