Budget Expenditures in Education and Healthcare in Russia in 2004-2007

The Institute of Urban Economics (IUE) investigated whether recent Russian government spending in health and education was sufficient and reflected Russia’s stated priorities.  IUE selected two of Russia’s development success stories—the Chuvash Republic and the Kaliningrad Region—and catalogued their success. After reviewing spending patterns, IUE researchers concluded that the Russian government is mostly meeting its commitments: spending is increasing and is well-targeted.
