Presentation by Prof. Dr. Alexander Libman on the political long-term effects of the construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline

On May 11th at 16:15, Alexander Libman, Professor of Russian and East European Politics at the Freie Universität Berlin, is going to present his paper "Legacies of Communist Modernization: Evidence from a Natural Experiment" at the seminar of the Institute for Economic Research and Policy (IERP).

The paper (joint work with Olga Vasilyeva) shows how the construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM) in the 1970s still has an influence on political behavior in Russia today.
