Russian Economy 2 1/2 Years Into the War Against Ukraine

Join us for the second installment our new speaker series "Russia: In Search of a New Paradigm — Conversations With Yevgenia Albats" to hear economists Oleg Itskhoki and Sergei Guriev (via Zoom) speak with our eminent host about Russia's wartime economy. What did the West get wrong about Putin's capacity to convert his nation's wealth into military might? Why have economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. and European Union had a marginal impact or, at least, not prevented Russia from manufacturing weaponry? What made possible Russia's economic growth and why have the state's huge military expenditures not caused discontent with the war within the country? These are but some of the questions to be discussed in what promises to be an in-depth, informative conversation. https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o Welcoming Speech and Introduction to Speakers by Eve Blau https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o Further Introduction by Yevgenia Albats https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o How Can Russia's Economy Sustain the War? https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o Oleg Itskhoki's Russian Economy, Past and Present https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o Sergei Guriev's Analysis of the Russian Economy https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o The Militarized Economy's Impact on Russian Society https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o What Can Be Done about Putin's Cash Flow? https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/F7Ur8D7LR7o Q&A with The Audience and Follow-Ups from Dr. Albats
