Despite its improved self-sufficiency in the sector, the country will remain one of the principle global meat importers in the foreseeable future. The reduced import tariffs following Russia’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) will put pressure on local meat producers to become more competitive. To do so, they will need to invest in the efficiency of primary production and higher food quality and safety standards. This review of the Russian meat sector, conducted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), aims to inform policy makers and investors and promote a more efficient and inclusive meat sector. It provides information on the role of the Russian Federation in global meat markets, on production and consumption of meat in the country, as well as relevant trade and policy measures. The review presents international comparisons on meat production efficiency, sector concentration and support measures. It also provides information on major players in the Russian meat market and identifies key sector constraints and opportunities. Readers interested in learning about mid-term prospects in the meat market are encouraged to read the latest version of the Agricultural Outlook jointly produced by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and FAO1. 1 http://www.oecd.org/site/oecd-faoagriculturaloutlook/. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This sector review was prepared by the Investment Centre Division of FAO in the context of the cooperation between FAO and the EBRD. It was financed by FAO and EBRD’s Special Shareholder Fund. Dimitry Prikhodko, Economist, Investment Centre Division, FAO, and Albert Davleyev, President, Agrifood Strategies, a Moscow- based agribusiness consultancy company, are the main authors of this report. Mr Prikhodko also led the team of other co-authors that contributed to the study. Inna Punda, Agribusiness Officer, Investment Centre Division, FAO, reviewed the initial version of the report and carried out desk research on Russia’s meat trade with Ukraine and within the Customs Union of Belarus, Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation. Vasyl Hovhera, Economist, Investment Centre Division, FAO, provided inputs on meat consumption and on the profitability of broiler meat production. Arianna Carità, Economist, Investment Centre Division, FAO, assisted in reviewing the study and prepared the executive summary. On the EBRD side, Marta Bruska, Operational Leader for this project, provided leadership and coordination. The FAO/EBRD team would like to express its sincere gratitude to Natalya Zhukova, Senior Banker, Agribusiness, EBRD, Moscow, and Oona Schreiner, Banker, Agribusiness, EBRD, for their constructive comments on current issues and trends in the Russian meat sector. The authors would also like to thank Eugenia Serova, Director, Rural Infrastructure and Agro-industries Division, FAO, for her guidance and inputs at the initial stages of the review.

    Monuments of Church Architecture in Belozersk: Late Sixteenth to the Early Nineteenth Centuries

    russian history 44 (2017) 260-297 brill.com/ruhi Monuments of Church Architecture in Belozersk: Late Sixteenth to the Early Nineteenth Centuries William Craft Brumfield Professor of Slavic Studies and Sizeler Professor of Jewish Studies, Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies, Tulane University, New Orleans [email protected] Abstract The history of the community associated with the White Lake (Beloe Ozero) is a rich one. This article covers a brief overview of the developing community from medieval through modern times, and then focuses the majority of its attention on the church ar- chitecture of Belozersk. This rich tradition of material culture increases our knowledge about medieval and early modern Rus’ and Russia. Keywords Beloozero – Belozersk – Russian Architecture – Church Architecture The origins and early location of Belozersk (now a regional town in the center of Vologda oblast’) are subject to discussion, but it is uncontestably one of the oldest recorded settlements among the eastern Slavs. “Beloozero” is mentioned in the Primary Chronicle (or Chronicle of Bygone Years; Povest’ vremennykh let) under the year 862 as one of the five towns granted to the Varangian brothers Riurik, Sineus and Truvor, invited (according to the chronicle) to rule over the eastern Slavs in what was then called Rus’.1 1 The Chronicle text in contemporary Russian translation is as follows: “B гoд 6370 (862). И изгнaли вapягoв зa мope, и нe дaли им дaни, и нaчaли caми coбoй влaдeть, и нe былo cpeди ниx пpaвды, и вcтaл poд нa poд, и былa у ниx уcoбицa, и cтaли вoeвaть дpуг c дpугoм. И cкaзaли: «Пoищeм caми ceбe князя, кoтopый бы влaдeл нaми и pядил пo pяду и пo зaкoну».

  • Voter Alignments in a Dominant Party System: the Cleavage Structures of the Russian Federation

    Voter Alignments in a Dominant Party System: the Cleavage Structures of the Russian Federation

    Voter alignments in a dominant party system: The cleavage structures of the Russian Federation. Master’s Thesis Department of Comparative Politics November 2015 Ivanna Petrova Abstract This thesis investigates whether there is a social cleavage structure across the Russian regions and whether this structure is mirrored in the electoral vote shares for Putin and his party United Russia on one hand, versus the Communist Party of the Russian Federation and its leader Gennady Zyuganov on the other. In addition to mapping different economic, demographic and cultural factors affecting regional vote shares, this thesis attempts to determine whether there is a party system based on social cleavages in Russia. In addition, as the Russian context is heavily influenced by the president, this thesis investigates whether the same cleavages can explain the distribution of vote shares during the presidential elections. Unemployment, pensioners, printed newspapers and ethnicity create opposing effects during parliamentary elections, while distance to Moscow, income, pensioners, life expectancy, printed newspapers and ethnicity created opposing effects during the presidential elections. The first finding of this thesis is not only that the Russian party system is rooted in social cleavages, but that it appears to be based on the traditional “left-right” cleavage that characterizes all Western industrialized countries. In addition, despite the fact that Putin pulls voters from all segments of the society, the pattern found for the party system persists during presidential elections. The concluding finding shows that the main political cleavage in today’s Russia is between the left represented by the communists and the right represented by the incumbents.
  • An Overview of the Medical Device Regulations in the Russian Federation

    An Overview of the Medical Device Regulations in the Russian Federation

    International Medical Device Consultants Since 1997 AN OVERVIEW OF THE MEDICAL DEVICE REGULATIONS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION Russia has a population of 149 million and is a potentially lucrative market for medical device companies. In 2007, the Russian market for medical devices and related supplies totalled US$1.8 billion. This puts the market among the top 20 in the world, although per capita spending remains very low compared to the European or US markets. The registration of medical devices and medical equipment in Russia is, however, challenging. Russia has made efforts to improve the process in the last few years but there are still many areas of ambiguity. In 2006, the government initiated a Priority National Programme in Public Health Service, which aims to improve Russian healthcare standards and a regulatory process that was bureaucratic and lacked clarity and transparency. Since the project’s implementation, numerous medical facilities have been upgraded. This plan is benefiting equipment manufacturers as around 80% of the market is supplied by imports. Germany, the USA and Japan were the leading suppliers in 2007, accounting for more than half of all imports. Perhaps most problematic for foreign manufacturers seeking device registration is that Russia still relies on a system of product testing as a tool for determining product safety and efficacy. As Russia has its own national standards, such testing is also required for products that already possess CE marking, US Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance or other national approvals. Even products that have been for sale on the US and European markets for many years require product testing to Russian standards as well.
