  • Welfare Reforms in Post-Soviet States: a Comparison
    WELFARE REFORMS IN POST-SOVIET STATES: A COMPARISON OF SOCIAL BENEFITS REFORM IN RUSSIA AND KAZAKHSTAN by ELENA MALTSEVA A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Elena Maltseva (2012) Welfare Reforms in Post-Soviet States: A Comparison of Social Benefits Reform in Russia and Kazakhstan Elena Maltseva Doctor of Philosophy Political Science University of Toronto (2012) Abstract: Concerned with the question of why governments display varying degrees of success in implementing social reforms, (judged by their ability to arrive at coherent policy outcomes), my dissertation aims to identify the most important factors responsible for the stagnation of social benefits reform in Russia, as opposed to its successful implementation in Kazakhstan. Given their comparable Soviet political and economic characteristics in the immediate aftermath of Communism’s disintegration, why did the implementation of social benefits reform succeed in Kazakhstan, but largely fail in Russia? I argue that although several political and institutional factors did, to a certain degree, influence the course of social benefits reform in these two countries, their success or failure was ultimately determined by the capacity of key state actors to frame the problem and form an effective policy coalition that could further the reform agenda despite various political and institutional obstacles and socioeconomic challenges. In the case of Kazakhstan, the successful implementation of the social benefits reform was a result of a bold and skillful endeavour by Kazakhstani authorities, who used the existing conditions to justify the reform initiative and achieve the reform’s original objectives.

  • Russian Strategy Towards Ukraine's Presidential Election
    BULLETIN No. 49 (49) August 19, 2009 © PISM Editors: Sławomir Dębski (Editor-in-Chief), Łukasz Adamski, Mateusz Gniazdowski, Beata Górka-Winter, Leszek Jesień, Agnieszka Kondek (Executive Editor), Łukasz Kulesa, Ernest Wyciszkiewicz Russian Strategy towards Ukraine’s Presidential Election by Jarosław Ćwiek-Karpowicz Dmitry Medvedev’s letter to Viktor Yushchenko is a clear signal of Russia’s intention to influ- ence internal developments in Ukraine, including the course of the presidential campaign. In the run-up to the January 2010 poll, unlike in the period preceding the Orange Revolution, Russia will very likely refrain from backing just a single candidate, and instead will seek a deepening of the existing divisions and further destabilization on the Ukrainian political scene, destabilization which it sees as helping to protect Russian interests in Ukraine. Medvedev’s Letter. In an open letter to Viktor Yushchenko, dated 11 August, Dmitry Medvedev put the blame for the crisis in bilateral relations on the Ukrainian president, and he explained that the arrival of the new ambassador to Kiev, Mikhail Zurabov—replacing Viktor Chernomyrdin, who was recalled last June—would be postponed. Medvedev accused his Ukrainian counterpart of having knowingly abandoned the principles of friendship and partnership with Russia during the past several years. Among the Yushchenko administration’s alleged anti-Russian actions, he listed weapons shipments and support extended to Georgia in last year’s armed conflict in South Ossetia; endeavors to gain

  • Russian Politics Toward Ukraine: Was There Ever a Strategic Partnership?
    Przegląd Strategiczny 2019, Issue 12 Olga BRUSYLOVSKA DOI : 10.14746/ps.2019.1.9 Odessa Mechnikov National University https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0519-4206 Igor KOVAL Odessa Mechnikov National University https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3192-5044 Russian Politics Toward Ukraine: was there Ever a Strategic Partnership? Relations between Russia and Ukraine through the prism of strategic partnership con- cept were discussed in much research in Ukraine and abroad. Among others there was the book of Michael Emerson, Nathalie Tocci, Marius Vahl, and Nicholas Whyte where scientists thought about rivalries of the European Union and Russia on the space that the new Russian political vocabulary calls the “Near Abroad” (Emerson, Tocci, Vahl, Whyte, 2001). Ukrainian researchers first of all tried to compare the case of Russian- Ukrainian relations with other Ukrainian partners (������������Парахонський������������, 2005� Парахонсь���������- ���, Яворська, 2011� ��в�в���в, 2009� Седля�, 2005). Yulia Sedliar revealed the peculiarities of the Russian-Ukrainian strategic partnership before the Orange Revolu- tion. For her even then the unequal nature of our relations stood in the way of our com- mon politics in different spheres of cooperation. However, these works do not embrace a period after 2013 and does not give an opportunity to reduce the character of Russian politics in Ukraine throughout the period of Ukrainian independence. The nature of the development of Russian-Ukrainian relations is not clear and needs to be revealed. The hypothesis of this research was that these states never had a rich level of strategic partnership (despite the officially proclaimed status), but al- ways remained a sort of “negative strategic dependence” because of the high level of asymmetry in their relations.
