Andrei Markevich is a Full Professor at the New Economic School (NES) in Moscow, where he has been teaching since 2008 and held a full professorship since 2017. He received his Candidate of Historical Sciences degree in 2002 and completed his PhD in History from the Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Science. Markevich earned his diploma with honors from Lomonosov Moscow State University and has held prestigious fellowships including Marie Curie Research Fellow at the University of Warwick and Hoover National Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
Markevich's research focuses on the economic history of Russia, Eastern Europe and North Eurasia, particularly examining the development of the Russian Empire and Soviet Union from the 18th to 20th centuries. His work explores the interconnections between institutions and economic growth, the political economy of state socialism, and the long-run consequences of historical events. He has made significant contributions to understanding how historical institutional arrangements continue to shape modern economic outcomes in the region.
His extensive publication record includes articles in top journals such as American Economic Review, Review of Economics and Statistics, European Economic Review, Journal of Economic History, Journal of Development Economics, and Journal of Public Economics. Markevich is particularly known for his work on Russian national income during turbulent historical periods, for which he received the Main Prize of the 2011 Russian National Award for Best Research in Applied Economics, with special recognition again in 2020.
