| Abstract: | This study examined the politico-socio-economic benefits of learning Russian as a foreign language in the context of developing economies, with a focus on Ghana. The study combined content analysis, PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling) technique, and the human capital theory to analyse relationships between the constructs. Through a theory driven content analysis, the study found that individuals who have learnt Russian as a foreign language gain benefits such as improved human capital, increased productivity, increased social mobility, and improved diplomacy and international relations. Through a PLS-SEM analysis, the study assessed the impact of these factors on the politico-socio-economic development of a developing country. The findings show that human capital, and diplomacy and international relations have significant influence on the politico-socio-economic development of a developing country. Improved Human capital, and productivity derived from fluency in foreign languages does not significantly influence a country’s politico-socio-economic development. The implications of these findings will help Ghana to become aware and take advantage of socio-economic benefits that comes with speaking Russian. The study contributes to the growing body of literature on the impact of foreign language education on the development of a country, and provides valuable insights for policymakers, educators, and researchers. |
