Welcome to Notes from the Golden Horde!

My name is Dmitriy Belyanin. From late December 2015 till March 2017, I worked with Leon Taylor, Associate Professor of Economics at KIMEP University, on the blog “Economics on the Silk Road”, featuring analyses of Central Asian economies, located at

www.centralasianeconomy.blogspot.com. I contributed 15 posts on economics during the period. Earlier, I had written on issues in economics and finance ranging from stock markets to environmental economics. I am grateful to Leon Taylor for all his support.

This blog is similar to “Economics on the Silk Road.” However, it may also include articles, focusing on Belarus and Armenia, the non-Central Asian members of the Eurasian Economic Union, in comparative studies. It will be less technical and, in comparison with my contributions to “Economics on the Silk Road,” each of the articles will be narrower in scope.


Thanks for your attention to my blog!

Sincerely,

Dmitriy Belyanin
