The Soviet Model of Armored Vehicles Production (1920–1940s)
The article examines the Soviet model of armored vehicle production in the 1920s–1940s. During the first five-year plans, the USSR tank-building industry could not use the experience and production base of domestic engineering. Designers and factories could not use components and assemblies of civil engineering, as was practiced abroad. Therefore, the further development of tank building and mechanical engineering went on in parallel. The factori…
Mobile Broadband and the Decline of Incumbency Advantage
Incumbency advantage in U.S. congressional elections has long been a well-established feature of American politics. Using a regression discontinuity design, we document that this advantage remained stable until the late 2000s, after which it sharply declined, falling from a long-term average of about 11 percentage points of additional vote share to about 3 percentage points by 2020-2024. Using a differences-in-discontinuities design, we show that…

This effect is present only when the internet is not censored, and it is stronger when the traditional media are …
