Research

My research lies at the intersection of institutional economics, political economy, and development economics, with a particular focus on post-communist countries and Central Asia. 

I investigate how formal institutions, informal norms, and governance structures shape individual behavior, business decisions, and long-run economic outcomes.

Publications and Collaborations

My research has been published in leading international journals, including Kyklos, European Journal of Political Economy, Economic Systems, Scottish Journal of Political Economy, and other peer-reviewed outlets. 

I actively collaborate with researchers across Europe and Central Asia through several international research projects funded by the European Union.

Teaching and Academic Service

In addition to research, I teach Microeconomics and Quantitative Methods, supervise students, and organize academic seminars that bring together scholars from around the world. 

I strongly believe that high-quality research should contribute not only to academic knowledge but also to better public policy and stronger institutions.
