Office: 312 Social Sciences Telephone: 919-660-1885 Office Hours: by appointment Teaching Assistant: SULTAN MURATOV Email: sultan.muratov@duke.edu sec.: sultan11091996@gmail.com

Teaching Assistant: OLHA HALYTSIA Email: ohalytsya@kse.org.ua

Class: MW 08:30 – 09:45 Perkins Link 071 (Classroom 5) 1. Course description. This course traces economic factors leading to the downfall of the Russian Empire and

the rise of the USSR, followed by an assessment of the decline and aftermath of the USSR. Particular attention is devoted to the NEP period, earlier Soviet economic models, the famine of the 1930s, the impact of the Great Patriotic War (WWII), industrialization and urbanization, Soviet planning, and declining productivity growth and life expectancy in the in the 1970s and 1980s. The course then explores the economic consequences of the USSR's collapse as well as the nature of recovery in various countries that followed. The course concludes with an overview of formal political economy models. Students will be encouraged to explore Census data, household surveys, and other data sources.

2. Partnership with the Kyiv School of Economics. This course will include roughly 6 participants and 1 TA (Ms. Olha Halytsia, now in the World Bank’s Kyiv office) from the Kyiv School of Economics’ https://kse.ua/ MA program. They will be linked via Zoom, and are expected to follow the same program as Duke students. Depending on areas of interest, I may allow teams to work on research projects. In any case, I will expect KSE and Duke students to interact, including by making comments on each other’s term papers.

3. Duke Reader Project. The course has a significant writing and presentation requirement, as noted below. Students will have the option to participate in the Duke Reader Project, through which students get feedback on drafts of their written work from Duke alumni who have professional experience relevant to their projects. For our course, volunteer readers will have backgrounds in some area of economics, history, or business related to the cold war or USSR. Students are also encouraged to make use of the Duke Writing Studio for help with writing assignments

4. Honor code and course policies.

Failure to acknowledge assistance on an assignment, or to cite a source of information used in an assignment, or to represent the work of others as your own, violates the University's honor code. Any violations may result in failure of the assignment or the course, or expulsion from the University.

Any exam missed for a non-legitimate reason will be accorded the grade of 0. Any exam missed for a legitimate reason will be made up with an oral exam as soon as EcoTeach can schedule it.

Late work will be penalized by 1/3 grade point per day late (excluding Sundays).

Assignments must be submitted via Sakai. An electronic and a hard copy of the term paper must be submitted to the instructor.

Standard formatting for regular text material shall be as follows: 1-inch margins top/bottom/left/right; 1.5 line spacing; extra space between paragraphs; Garamond 12 font; right hand justification for main text. References and footnotes should be single space (with space between individual citations) and Garamond 11 font.

Assignments and term papers that have not gone through a basic spell and grammar check will not be accepted. Files attached with viruses will be deleted and not regarded as submitted; if for some reason the virus gets through and infects one of my computers, you will receive a grade of 0 for the assignment.

5. Grading and assignments. The grades will be determined as weighted averages of exam and homework

performances:

USSR overview quiz 5% Sept 4

Literature review and research project proposal 15% Sept 18

Critical analysis of a scholarly journal research paper 15% Oct 21

Research paper (including oral presentation) 40% Nov 26

Final examination1 or final draft of research project 25% Dec 12 (7:00 pm)

The essays/presentations include two technical presentations of recent papers in economics journals, with dissemination via Sakai to the class, and one "live" classroom presentation. These should be short but detailed presentations of a formal (i.e., mathematical) economic model or econometric application pertinent to the USSR. Topics must receive the instructor's approval.

The research paper is expected to be a journal article-type research paper that could be developed into or submitted as an honors thesis. It should be 15-30 pages in length plus tables, on a topic of the student's choice, but subject to instructor approval. The paper is expected to involve original empirical or theoretical research.

The final examination, if it takes place, will be comprehensive. 6. Texts and major books. There are no required books, though I recommend buying and skimming through the

Gregory-Stuart text. I may ask you to read from Alexeev-Weber as well. My class slides will be posted on Sakai. These are intended to be supplemental, and are neither a perfect substitute for class or for the readings. Special thanks are due to Andrei Markevich, Yuri Zhukov, and Rustem Nureev for thoughtfully posting their reading lists on line, and to Gani Aldashev, Anna Chorniy, Anna Rafferty, Aleksandr Rubin, Ai-Gul Seitenova, Lennart Samuelsson, and Natalya Tourdieva for help in preparing this reading list.

7. Course outline and lots of literature. As we come to each topic, I will note required and optional readings. The class itself will be conducted as a guided discussion, except when it is necessary to present formal models, or when students are making presentations. Thus, it is essential that everyone have done a substantial amount of

reading on each subject prior to the class. As a general policy, I expect each student to read the Alexeev-

Weber book and Gregory-Stuart as useful background material, and as needed. Students also

should read at least one paper (or chapter from a book) for each class, and to contribute to the

discussion based on that reading. Readings may be chosen from the syllabus below, or from the

journals and websites listed above, or found elsewhere.
