“…Eastern Siberia, Russian North, Far East are characterized by low level of social order and unequal access to social wellbeing sources (Foa, & Nemirovskaya, 2015). There are also important differences between regions in their income, infrastructure development, financial, industrial and human resources.…”

This article is devoted to dynamics of the social wellbeing index counted for Siberian region in context of the modernization processes in Russia. The study is based on representative samples from population surveys conducted in 2011 and 2015. It is complemented by the Russian region's modernization map, which was prepared within the data calculated under the procedure developed by Modernization Research Center of China Academy (adapted for Russia). It has been found that the social wellbeing of the population has not significantly changed over the last 5 years despite the current crisis. Also regions are unbalanced in terms of modernization processes, most of them don't even reach the level of capital cities in terms of modernization parameters and social welfare. Tomsk region is a remote Siberian region, but it has the specific "innovative" status and it shows better wellbeing indicators than Russia as a whole. The study was conducted under the RFH sponsorship as project №15-03-00366 "Social and cultural factors of the new modernization in the regions (on research in the Tomsk region)"

“…Но по-прежнему дискуссионным остается вопрос об "успешных" автократиях и эффективной/оптимальной последовательности режимных изменений (что первично -укрепление государственной "вертикали" или демократизация?). Мнения и аргументы здесь высказываются разные [Cheibub 1998;Bäck, Hadenius 2008;Robinson 2008 [Edin 2003;Schwartz 2003;Foa, Nemirovskaya 2016].…”

Статья базируется на результатах исследовательского проекта о роли парламентской дипломатии в современной политике, реализуемого аналитическим центром “Rethinking Russia” и Центром международного продвижения. Авторы изучают феномен парламентской дипломатии, анализируют его природу и истоки. Парламентский срез рассматривается как наиболее показательное институциональное сочетание государственной (парламент как официальный орган власти) и общественной (парламентарии являются представителями народа, гражданского общества) природы современной коммуникации на мегаполитическом уровне. Анализируются актуальные прикладные аспекты российской парламентской дипломатии как двустороннего, так и многостороннего характера, включая парламентские ассамблеи международных организаций – ОБСЕ, СНГ, ОДКБ, и ряда других. Акцентируются возможности парламента в преодолении вызовов, с которыми сталкивается современное государство.

“… 76 Kruks-Wisner 2018, 48, also shows that conditions marked by a “felt absence of the state” can inhibit claim-making by reinforcing low expectations and demobilizing citizens. Other scholars have instead highlighted that the formation of strong social institutions among settlers of remote areas may be responsible for their increased resistance to the extension of state power; Foa and Nemirovskaya 2016.…”

Why do communities with larger shares of ethnic and racial minorities have worse public goods provision? Many studies have emphasized the role of diversity in hindering public outcomes, but the question of causality remains elusive. The authors contribute to this debate by tracing the roots of both contemporary racial demography and public goods provision to the uneven historical expansion of the state. Focusing on new historical data from Brazil, the authors show that more remote municipalities with lower levels of state capacity in the past were more frequently selected by escaped slaves to serve as permanent settlements. Consequently, such municipalities have worse public services and larger shares of Afro-descendants today. These results highlight the pervasive endogeneity of the relationship between ethnic demography and public outcomes. The failure to account for context-dependent historical confounders raises concerns about the validity of previous findings regarding the social costs and benefits of any particular demographic composition.
