Abstract

Hypothesis of Dutch disease in Russian and Armenian economies is tested in the paper. Theoretical macroeconomic modeling and econometric verification with co-integration and ECM expose some relationships which suggest the presence of Dutch disease in both economies, caused in case of Russian economy by huge oil export and in Armenian by migration and private transfers.
