Vasily Korovkin

Vasily Korovkin is a Professor (Tenure Track) at the UCLA Anderson School of Management, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). His research focuses on Development Economics, Industrial Organization, and Political Economy, with particular attention to topics like trade sanctions, conflict economics, and corruption detection. He holds a PhD and has published extensively on global supply chain dynamics, electoral fraud, and policy evaluation methodologies.

Research interests include analyzing the economic impacts of geopolitical conflicts (e.g., Russia-Ukraine war), trade policy mechanisms, and institutional corruption. His work often combines rigorous quantitative methods with real-world case studies, such as procurement auctions in Russia and post-war economic recovery in Ukraine.

Notable contributions include studies on sanction effectiveness, social media behavior during conflict, and experimental approaches to measuring electoral fraud. His recent work (post-2022) emphasizes real-time economic disruptions caused by geopolitical events.
