  • The Impact of Free Media on Regime Change: Evidence from Russia
    The Impact of Free Media on Regime Change: Evidence from Russia Javier Garcia-Arenas∗ January 17, 2016 Abstract Can free media become a powerful lever to make regime change possible? Are Western countries successful in exporting their values to other countries and triggering regime change abroad? I study these questions in the context of Russia in the early 90s when the Soviet Union was crumbling. In particular, I analyze the impact of Radio Liberty on the 1991 Russian presidential elections, which were the first democratic elec- tions in the country. In order to study the effects of this American radio broadcasting from outside Russia, I use a novel empirical strategy exploiting ionospheric variation, which affects shortwave propagation over long distances, measured by NASA with the aim of obtaining a measure of radio availability in each Russian electoral district. The results show a significant effect of these broadcasts in favor of Yeltsin and a negative significant effect on communist support. Such results are robust and bolstered by a series of placebo exercises, and survey evidence. Thus, this paper documents that free media can play an important role in political processes of regime change. Keywords: Regime change, free media, communism, ionosphere. ∗Department of Economics, MIT. Email: [email protected]. I am hugely indebted to Daron Acemoglu, Ben Olken, and Esther Duflo for splendid and inspiring advice, guidance, and encouragement through all the stages of this project. Many thanks also to Thomas Fujiwara for great comments and support. Cory Smith provided invaluable help on the coding.

Glebov OOO Archaeological Research Bureau, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation Anton V. Dedyulkin Southern Federal University, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation Abstract. There are different points of view regarding the date of the appearance of the early Sarmatian archaeological culture of the 2nd – 1st centuries BC within the Lower Don region. However, most researches have been of the view that the Lower Don region and the Northeastern Black Sea region were developed by the Sarmatians relatively late, namely not earlier than the second half of the 2nd century BC. The main objective of this study is to define the date of the first appearance of the Sarmatians on the territory of the Don region based on the analysis of the archaeological data from Sarmatian and ancient archeology, as well as information from the literary and epigraphic sources. According to the scale of the relative chronology there is plenty of early monuments in the Sarmatian antiquities within the 2nd century BC. However, the number of chronological indicators in Sarmatian burials of this time horizon is relatively low. On the basis of the Rhodian amphora with stamps, black-glazed cantharoi and Megarian bowls, the date of the earliest complexes can be set within the second or third quarters of the 2nd century BC. The arrival of the Sarmatians had a general destabilizing effect on the situation in the Don region and the Northeastern Black Sea region.

  • RUSSIA and the ARMS TRADE (Oxford University SIPRI Yearbook 1995: Armaments, Disarmament and International Security , 3 Aug
    9. Military–technical cooperation between the CIS member states* Alexander A. Sergounin I. Introduction According to the Russian foreign policy concept adopted in January 1993, the CIS countries have first priority in Russian foreign policy. The aim is to estab- lish fully fledged cooperation with the other CIS countries in economic, military, scientific and technological areas. However, this document points out that scientific and technical cooperation should be oriented to peaceful purposes and civilian use.1 It includes no special provision on military–technical coopera- tion. This may be explained by two factors. First, at the time the Russian leader- ship was preoccupied by converting the defence industry. Second, Russia was cautious about stressing arms transfer policy and military cooperation within the CIS, anticipating a negative reaction from the West. The Russian leadership very soon changed its mind. It was realized that con- version was impossible without proper funding—hence a new stress on an active arms export policy. At the same time, President Boris Yeltsin began a new policy aimed at further economic, political and military integration in the CIS. Military integration had been among the first forms of integration—in the framework of the Tashkent Treaty on Collective Security of 15 May 1992 and the Principal Guidelines for the Evolution of CIS Integration adopted by the CIS heads of state in 1992.2 By 1993 the former Soviet republics had made great strides in fostering economic, political, military, humanitarian and cultural ties through the CIS mechanism and bilateral relations. However, it had become clear that the integration process had to be based on a well-developed infra- structure and institutional network rather than on declarations and intentions.
