Her doctoral work was focused on the political economy of Russian trade policy at the end of the 19th century. Her most recent paper in the Economic History Review (hyperlink: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ehr.13116) studies the role of interest groups in tariff policy formation in late Imperial Russia. In the DATAREV project, Marina will work on the cross-country analysis of the effects of the Great Depression on the performance of the agricultural sector in Europe based on micro-level accountancy data for the years 1927-1937.
