“…To some extent, they have created inefficient institutions, resulting in arbitrariness, self-service, and corruption. This situation favors societal mistrust for formal market institutions; fosters the development of informal networks, and makes it more difficult for independent entrepreneurs to establish and grow their businesses (Aidis et al 2008;Kuznetsov and Kuznetsova;Ledeneva 2006).…”

This article presents the results of exploratory field research investigating the impact of the enabling institutional environment and internal firm capabilities in the information technology sector in St. Petersburg, Russia. Through a series of semi-structured interviews and confirmatory research through the UNDP and UNIDO, the study finds the emerging institutional environment remains weak, unpredictable and unstable, creating challenges for SMEs to contribute to the growth and development of the Russian economy.

“…Mutual trust and communication conventions related to more informal institutions could also affect supply chain management (Tan, 2001;Yaibuathet, Enkawa & Suzuki, 2008).

As a consequence of the internationalization of logistics services into emerging markets, incumbent companies find themselves in foreign environments to which they have to adapt. The purpose of this study is to enhance understanding of how new institutional environments affect logistics service providers (LSPs) and how they adapt in terms of resources and capabilities. Combining the institutional environment perspective with the resource‐based view, we analyze the impact of institutions on foreign LSPs in the case of Russia. The case‐study‐based results suggest that the institutional environment, namely the political and social systems, as well as market liberalization, carries major implications in this context. Foreign LSPs need to adapt to the host market environment during internationalization in order to develop the capabilities associated with competitive logistics services. Further, the complexity of the offered services determines the degree of required adaptation.

Economics of Transition

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper develops a model to investigate the welfare implications of barter in Russia and other transition economies during the 1990s. We argue that barter is a welfare-improving phenomenon that acts as a defence mechanism against monetary instability. When firms react to tighter credit markets by switching to barter, the risk they face diminishes, allowing for a higher level of production.JEL classifications: E0, E6, P20, P21, P23, P26.barter is a welfare-improving activity. We demonstrate that barter should not necessarily be seen as an undesirable cost imposed on firms and on the society, but as an alternative technology that firms can use to hedge against increasing instability.
