PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS:

My principal research interests lie in the area of Theoretical Sociology, Sociology of Management, Institutional Sociology, Political Sociology and comparative socio-cultural studies. I am particularly interested in the comparative analysis of business processes and their social and cultural backgrounds in a macro scale. Much of my research work is concerned with the problem of how does the power-relations in business emerged in a particular culture influence the development of innovations in organization. This problem is much relevant for Russian social science because the power relations have traditionally been key-factor in modernization of economy. The research of innovation's development in macro social and economical systems with different socio-cultural conditions is in the center of my scientific interests. I am also going to keep a particular focus on examining the difference between power relations in these systems and its impact on innovations growth.
