Kursk Region

In difficult economic and socio-political conditions, there is an increase in the dominant importance of Russian agriculture, not only as a guarantor of social stability in terms of ensuring food security, but also as a driver of the country's economic development in the strategic future. During the period of the spread of the coronavirus threat, many industries suffered significant losses, resulting in an economic downturn in most countries of the world. In this situation, agriculture can become a catalyst for the development of economic processes in regions with agricultural specialization, as the demand for food, both in the Russian market and abroad, will continue to increase. The article considers the results of agricultural production in the Kursk region, according to which the conclusion is made about significant success in a number of agricultural production areas. Against the background of initially lower provision of our region with resources and other natural and economic conditions in comparison with the leading regions, there are noticeable rates of positive changes in the agricultural sector of the Kursk region, which allowed the region to enter the top 10 in terms of sugar beet yields, grain and meat production. The key indicator of the analysis is the share of agricultural production in the region relative to the all-Russian similar indicator, the assessment of which revealed a more dynamic development of the Kursk region on average in comparison with other regions in the country. The study argues that it is necessary to increase the role of the state as a guarantor of stability and investment attractiveness of domestic agriculture in order to maintain positive dynamics of production and economic processes in the context of accelerating recovery from the pandemic crisis.

The Great Recession

The purpose of this paper is to examine the well-being dynamics across European countries during the Great Recession and to investigate the potential role of the quality of formal institutions in mitigating the negative effect of the economic downturn. This study uses the club convergence methodology by Phillips and Sul (2007; 2009) to group EU-28 countries that present similar features in terms of well-being during the period 2005-2017. The study also applies probit models to investigate the potential role of several social and institutional characteristics that are supposed to affect subjective well-being levels. The results show the existence of a “well-being gap” among European countries. The economic downturn started in 2008 has impacted the perceived well-being more in low-income and low-growth countries (less developed transition and Southern countries), than in high-income and more developed transition countries. The study also shows that countries that present well-functioning institutional systems and, more in general, good institutional performances show higher life satisfaction levels and tend to be more resilient to the negative effects generated by the economic shock.
