  • The Economic Adjustment and Polarisation of Russia's Cities
    Uneven urban resilience: the economic adjustment and polarisation of Russia's cities Oleg Golubchikov, Cardiff University1 Alla Makhrova, Moscow State University Anna Badyina, University of Southampton Isolde Brade, Leibniz Institute for Regional Geography Published as: Golubchikov, O., Makhrova, A., Badyina, A. and Brade, I. (2015). Uneven urban resilience: the economic adjustment and polarization of Russia's cities. In: Lang, T. et al. (eds.) Understanding Geographies of Polarization and Peripheralization: Perspectives from Central and Eastern Europe and Beyond. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, pp. 270-284. Introduction The multidimensional processes of transition to a market economy have produced a radical rupture to the previous development of Russian cities. Many factors driving urban change under the Soviet system, both of ideological and material nature, have lost their legitimacy or significance under the capitalist regime of accumulation and regulation. Thus, no longer perceived as a purpose-built machine for a meaningful evolution to a fair and egalitarian communist society as before, each city has been exposed to the ideology of the free market and pushed to acquire a new niche in the nexus of global and local capitalist flows. Not all cities equally succeeded in this endeavour. Indeed, already under the conditions of general economic disorganisation and harsh economic downturn introduced by the poorly performed neoliberal reforms of the early 1990s, different urban regions started demonstrating divergent trajectories of their economic performance, including severe marginalisation and peripheralisation by some and more successful adaptation by others. Those processes of initial spatial differentiation have proven to become self-perpetuating even under the conditions of ‘restorative’ growth experienced in Russia between 1998 and 2008, as well as the ensuring period of more bumpy economic growth.

  • Are Science Cities Fostering Firm Innovation?
    PRELIMINARY AND INCOMPLETE – DO NOT CITE Are Science Cities Fostering Firm Innovation? Evidence from Russia’s Regions 1 Helena Schweiger Paolo Zacchia European Bank for Reconstruction and University of California – Berkeley Development [email protected] [email protected] February 2015 Abstract: Using a mixture of data from the recent regionally representative Business Environment and Enterprise Performance Survey (BEEPS) in Russia as well as municipal level data, we find that there are significant differences in innovation activity of firms and cities across the Russian regions. We investigate whether this could be explained by the proximity to science cities – towns with a high concentration of research and development facilities, as well as human capital. They were selected and given this status in a largely random way during Soviet times. We match the science and non-science cities on their historic and geographical characteristics and compare the innovation activity (R&D, product and process innovation) of firms in science cities with the innovation activity of similar-in-the-observables firms in similar, non-science cities. Preliminary evidence suggests that firms located in science cities were more likely to engage in product and process innovation than firms located in similar, non-science cities. The results have important policy implications because many countries in the world, including developing countries, have been introducing science parks or other areas of innovation, viewing them as a type of silver bullet with the capability of dramatically improving a country’s ability to compete in the global economy and help the country to grow. JEL Classification: O33, O38, O14 Keywords: Innovation, Russia, science cities 1 We would like to thank Natalya Volchkova, Sergei Guriev and Maria Gorban for helpful discussions and Irina Capita, Jan Lukšič, Alexander Stepanov and Maria Vasilenko for excellent research assistance.

  • The Long-Run Effects of R&D Place-Based Policies
    The long-run effects of R&D place-based policies: Evidence from Russian Science Cities* Helena Schweiger† Alexander Stepanov‡ Paolo Zacchia§ December 2017 Abstract We study the long-run effects of historical place-based policies targeting R&D: the creation of Science Cities in former Soviet Russia. The establishment of Science Cities and the criteria for selecting their location were largely guided by political and military-strategic consider- ations. We compare current demographic and economic characteristics of Science Cities to those of appropriately matched localities that were similar to them at the time of their establishment. We find that in the modern Russian economy, despite the massive cuts of governmental support to R&D that followed the dissolution of the USSR, Science Cities host more high-skilled workers and more developed R&D and ICT sectors; are the origin of more international patents; and generally appear to be more productive and economically de- veloped. Within a spatial equilibrium framework, we interpret these findings as the result of the interaction between persistence and agglomeration forces. Furthermore, we rule out alternative explanations that have to do with the differential use of public resources, and we find limited support for a case of equilibrium reversion. Finally, by analyzing firm-level data we obtain evidence in favor of spillover effects with a wide spatial breadth. *We would like to thank Ralph de Haas, Sergei Guriev, Maria Gorban, Denis Ivanov, Sergei Izmalkov, Patrick Kline, Olga Kuzmina, Andrei Markeevich, Enrico Moretti, Gérard Roland and Natalya Volchkova for helpful discussions, as well as the participants at the SITE Academic Conference: 25 years of transition, 8th MEIDE conference, 2015 PacDev conference, 17th IEA World Congress, 16th Uddevalla Symposium, 2nd World Congress of Comparative Economics, XVIII HSE April International Academic Conference, 2017 Barcelona Workshop on Regional and Urban Economics and seminars at the EBRD, Higher School of Eco- nomics, New Economic School, U.C.

  • Russian Monotowns Delgir Maksimova [email protected]
    Master Program in Economic Growth, Innovation and Spatial Dynamics Russian Monotowns Delgir Maksimova [email protected] Abstract: Monofunctional towns of Russia represent the extreme case of specialized settlements where the socio-economic development mostly or fully depends on the performance of one or a few town-forming enterprises. This phenomenon obtained attention after the Soviet Union collapse, which has resulted in worsening of the socio-economic situation in monotowns. However, since the 2000s the differentiation in the development among monofunctional towns was observed. What can condition such differentiation? In this study an attempt to provide a new perspective, through which monotowns can be studied. The analysis is done in the step- wise manner and based on the developed data matrix and taxonomy of monotowns. Key words: monotowns, monofunctional towns, agglomeration, specialization, lock-ins, functional classification EKHM51 Master's Thesis (15 ECTS) June 2015 Supervisor: Karl-Johan Lundquist Examiner: Jonas Ljungberg Word Count: 15 883 Website www.ehl.lu.se TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents ............................................................................................................................ 1 List of Figures ................................................................................................................................. 2 List of Tables .................................................................................................................................. 3 1.
