PublicationСубрегиональные различия в отношении к бытовой коррупции на Дальнем Востоке России( 2024-04-24)Anna SolovyevaАннотация: B данном исследовании рассматриваются различия в опыте столкновения с мелкой коррупцией и отношении к ней жителей четырех крупных городских центров Дальнего Востока России − крупнейшего, но малоизученного макрорегиона страны. Анализируя данные собственного опроса, мы обнаружили, что один субрегион выделяется на фоне трех других, рассматриваемых в исследовании. Жители Республики Саха (Якутия) демонстрируют более негативное отношение к коррупции и реже сообщают о случаях мелкой коррупции. Полученные нами качественные результаты подтверждают существование четкой субрегиональной модели восприятия мелкой коррупции. Мы предполагаем, что обнаруженные различия в установках могут быть обусловлены национальным составом Республики Саха (Якутия), в которой, в отличие от других исследуемых регионов, преобладает коренное население. В дополнение к основному анализу мы изучили условные корреляции между индивидуальными характеристиками и восприятием коррупции (с учетом региона проживания) и выявили несколько интересных паттернов.Type: journal articleJournal: ПЕРИФЕРИЯ.

Publication"Lots of Money, Few Restrictions and a Lot of Creativity:" The Changing Role of Political Strategists in Russia( 2023-11-27)
;Barsukova, SvetlanaThe paper discusses electoral integrity and malpractice in Russia from the point of view of the people who make it happen: political strategists, CEOs, and government representatives. The original dataset, encompassing 75 in-depth interviews collected in selected Russian regions in 2018-19, suggests that a wide range of practices are employed to maintain the power of the ruling elite, from legal and ethical ones to morally gray and completely unethical ones. The techniques used have evolved with the general political situation in the country and can be clustered into five periods: 1991−1995, 1996−1999, 2000−2010, 2010−2017, and since 2018.Type: journal articleJournal: Demokratizatsiya: The Journal of Post-Soviet DemocratizationVolume: 31Issue: 4 -
PublicationApplied Aspects of Lacuna Theory( 2023-06-03)Lacuna research directs its attention to gaps in understanding that may occur in areas of intercultural communication. By revealing and explaining these gaps, lacuna research has the potential to optimize all areas of intercultural communication. In comparison with dimensional approaches-such as Gert Hofstede's theory, Charles Hampden-Turner and Fons Trompenaars' theory, Alexander Thomas cultural standards, and Erin Meyer's map of cultural differenceslacuna theory analyzes cross-cultural interactions at the micro-level. Originally developed and still widely used as a linguistic instrument, lacuna theory can also be applied to empirical investigations in social research. This paper focuses on the applied aspects of lacuna theory, from more established applications such as translation studies and foreign language pedagogy to suggestions for new applications such as film studies and international management.Type: journal articleVolume: 32Issue: 3

PublicationA Roadmap to the Future of Academic Integrity ResearchThis edited volume was published in 2020 as part of the ‘Elgar Research Agendas’ series by Edward Elgar Publishing. As the publisher states: ‘Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Forward-looking and innovative, Elgar Research Agendas are an essential resource for PhD students, scholars and anybody who wants to be at the forefront of research’. This is true with regard to the research agenda on academic integrity: twenty-four authors – scholars, practitioners, and policymakers, including Tracey Bretag, the editor and an authority in the field – describe the status quo in this volume and set an agenda for future research.Type: journal articleJournal: Academy of Management Learning and EducationVolume: 22Issue: 1

PublicationAcademic Dishonesty at Russian Universities: A Historical Overview( 2023-02-12)The problem of academic dishonesty at Russian universities is often foregrounded in discussions of contemporary academia, but it is not new. Only its scope, complexity, and pressure from various stakeholders to mitigate or—on the contrary—completely ignore this growing challenge are new. This paper presents a historical overview of corruption at Russian universities, demonstrating that the lack of academic integrity, in many forms, existed in Tsarist Russia and the Soviet Union. In addition to drawing from interviews with experts, the paper examines memoirs about student life edited by Russian historian Vasilii Klyuchevsky, the movies Operation Y and Shurik’s Other Adventures (dir. Leonid Gaidai, 1965) and Balamut (dir. Sergei Bodrov Sr., 1979), and literature by Ivan Kuprin (‘A Clump of Lilacs’, 1894), Lev Kassil (The Black Book and Schwambrania, 1928–1931), and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (The First Circle, 1978).Type: journal articleJournal: Mir RossiiVolume: 32Issue: 1

PublicationRacism and Related Concepts in the Russian Linguistic ConsciousnessThis paper discusses one approach to investigating the concept of racism and related concepts in the linguistic image of the world of Russian language users. It focuses on the collection of data (associative experiments) and its psycholinguistic interpretation as well as on the theories behind the experiments, including the theory of linguistic consciousness (teoriia iazykovogo soznaniia). The study outcomes suggest that Russians condemn racism but express this condemnation in a culturally specific way, which might lead to significant misunderstandings and conflicts in the international context.Type: journal articleJournal: Zeitschrift für Slawistik

PublicationDouble Standards as Modus Operandi: Mixing Business and Politics in Russia( 2022-07-29)
;Barsukova, SvetlanaBased on expert interviews (n = 75) conducted between October 2018 and July 2019 in selected Russian regions, the authors identify several types of strategies used by businesses while dealing with the government. These include collusion, revolving-door affiliations, conflict of interest, ‘voluntary’ donations and other forms of support to the ruling party (and sometimes the opposition parties) in exchange for public contracts or preferential treatment. The study outcomes suggest that it is almost impossible to do business in Russia without using these types of strategies. The authors trace some of these forms back to the Soviet period and discuss possible remedies.Type: journal articleJournal: Europe-Asia StudiesVolume: 74Issue: 6Scopus© Citations 4 -
