This paper explores whether redistributive politics can explain differences in agricultural subsidies in Russia, a country whose autocratic regime represents a fertile ground for strategic redistribution. Relying on political economy literature, we examine the strategies regional and federal Russian politicians utilize to allocate and distribute agricultural subsidies. Using unique 2008–2015 panel data, we test whether politicians target loyal or easily swayed voters and whether they use large farms as vote brokers. We find federal and regional politicians to allocate more agricultural subsidies when political competition against the dominant party is higher. Moreover, they appear to also target large farms for voter mobilization.

俄罗斯的再分配政治:农业补贴的政治经济学

本文探讨了再分配政治是否可以解释俄罗斯农业补贴的差异,这个国家的专制政权代表了战略再分配的沃土。依靠政治经济学文献,我们研究了俄罗斯地区和联邦政治家用来分配和分配农业补贴的策略。使用独特的 2008-2015 年面板数据,我们测试政治家是否针对忠诚或容易动摇的选民,以及他们是否使用大型农场作为投票经纪人。我们发现,当与主导政党的政治竞争加剧时,联邦和地区政客会分配更多的农业补贴。此外,他们似乎还针对大型农场进行选民动员。
