| Title | Partial Reform Equilibrium and Economic Nationalism in Putin's Russia |
| Summary | The thesis focuses on the dynamics of the state-business power relations during Putinīs presidency and the persistence of Hellmanīs concept of the Partial Reform Equilibrium, which was in a mutual benefit of the energy sector and the strengthened state. Consolidation of the Partial Reform Equilibrium seems to be related to economic nationalism, which provides popular legitimacy for Putinīs system. The main outline for this study is given by the importance of the oil and gas sector, which has been in fact sustaining the development of the country. The analytical framework driving this study is based on historical institutionalism and the critical constructivist approach to economic nationalism. The research argues that the mutual compromise between business and state is based on economic nationalism, which is what maintains and reproduces the low level equilibrium. |
