Is Russia Still Driving Regional Economic Growth? / Marco Pani, Etibar Jafarov, Clinton Shiells.

It specifies an econometric model that includes standard growth determinants as well as Russian economic growth, and which allows for the effects of Russian growth to vary over time. The paper finds that Russian growth was indeed a significant determinant of regional economic growth prior to the Russian crisis, but that this link weakened significantly thereafter.
