摘要

ON A RECENT weekday in Perm, an industrial city of 1m people on the edge of western Siberia, patrons packed Toropo-modoro, a popular pizza restaurant. "We were back to pre-pandemic levels of customers by June, and they've remained at that level since," says Maxim Minin, the owner. Russia's economy shrank by just 3% last year, leaving it in better shape than many. That is in part because the government did not reimpose a national lockdown after a second wave of covid-19 in the autumn. (Russia's excess-mortality rate-313 per 100,000 people, far beyond that of America-suggests the human toll was enormous.) But it is also because the Russian economy has long experience of isolation. Since 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea and invaded eastern Ukraine, the Kremlin has commanded the economy like a fortress under siege, building up reserves, decoupling from the world economy, and preparing for the potential impact of Western sanctions or fluctuations in oil prices. This fortress is effective at protecting against outside shocks. But inside its walls it breeds stagnation and malaise, which fuel Alexei Navalny's opposition movement and the protests against Vladimir Putin, Russia's president. "It's about stability, not development-or more specifically about control," says Natalia Zubarevich, an economist and geographer. "They won't let the economy die, but in this system development isn't possible."
