Title: Can the citizens affect the policy process in a hybrid regime? Evidence from three Russian reforms
Traditionally, the political institutions of a hybrid regime are perceived as tools of survival for authoritarian elites. The reported study looks at them from a different angle and demonstrates under which circumstances such quasi-democractic institutions can affect policy process in a hybrid regime. It analyzes the regional dimension of three of Russian reforms of late 2010s: administrative, pensions and waste-management. The results of the quantitative analysis of data from Russian subnational units from 2015 to 2019 show which of the features of regional political regimes foster the significance of democracy-like institutions as a factor of the reform dynamics. The results generally support the expectations that quasi-democractic institutions could have a significant effect on the policy process conditional on a number of characteristics of a region.
Working languages are English / Russian.
Seminar will be online via Zoom
