Donna Arnold, University of North Texas Serge Jaroff's Don Cossack Choir Was Founded at a Miserable Turkish Concentration Camp
Serge Jaroff and the Don Cossack Choir: the State of Research in the 21st Century Donna Arnold, University of North Texas Serge Jaroff’s Don Cossack Choir was founded at a miserable Turkish concentration camp in 1921 in an attempt to raise morale. It drew singers from the Tsarist Don Cossack regiments deported by the Red Army after their defeat in the Russian revolution. Jaroff, a detainee, had graduated from the famous Moscow Synodal Choir School, so he was ordered to conduct it. He arranged repertoire for it from memory, and against all odds, polished 36 amateurs into a brilliant world-class unit. Once freed, the destitute men stayed together and kept singing. Discovered by an impresario, they gave a groundbreaking concert at Vienna’s Hofburg on July 4, 1923, which launched their remarkable professional career. They proceeded to tour the world with unimaginable A very early picture of the choir A very young success for nearly 60 years. They always sang only in Russian, and they always wore the same kind of austere Serge Jaroff Cossack uniforms they had been wearing when they were deported. For 22 years Jaroff and his choristers travelled with “Nansen” passports, devised by the League of Nations for Russian émigrés without a country. The passports read “en voyage” where a country name would have been. For some time the men were based in Germany, but they sought Fast Forward: permanent-resident status in the United States as war was breaking out The choir gave its last concert in Paris in 1979; Serge Jaroff died in New Jersey in 1985.

Despite their significant numbers, however, these Ukrainians remain largely unknown to the international community, receiving none of the attention that has been accorded, for example, to Russian minorities in the successor states to the former Soviet Union. According to the last Soviet census of 1989, approximately 4.3 million Ukrainians live in the Russian Federation; unofficial estimates of the size of this group run considerably higher.

Andreas Kappeler. Die Kosaken: Geschichte Und Legenden
Book Reviews 181 Andreas Kappeler. Die Kosaken: Geschichte und Legenden. Munich: Verlag C. H. Beck, 2013. 127 pp. 20 illustrations. 2 maps. Index. Paper. ndreas Kappeler has done it again! Over twenty years ago, he published A a brief history of Ukraine, in which he managed to pack the most important parts of the history of the country into a mere 286 pages. Not only was that work brief and to the point, but it also held to a relatively high level of scholarship and made a number of interesting and well-grounded generalizations. In that book, Kappeler anticipated the longer and more detailed work of Paul Magocsi by experimenting with a multinational and polyethnic history of the country. In the present work, Kappeler is equally brief and to the point and has again produced a well-thought-out and serious history, this time of the Cossacks, and he has again included some important generalizations. Although in this volume, the multinational and polyethnic elements are not quite so prominent, he does make note of them, and, in particular, he compares the Ukrainian and Russian Cossacks on several different levels. Kappeler begins with geographic and geopolitical factors and notes that both the Ukrainian and Russian Cossacks originated along rivers—the Dnieper and the Don, respectively—as defenders of the local Slavic population against the Tatars and the Turks. He describes the successful Ukrainian Cossack revolt against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and what he calls “the Golden Age of the Dnieper Cossacks” under their leaders, or hetmans, Bohdan Khmel'nyts'kyi and Ivan Mazepa; and then the eventual absorption of their polity, the Ukrainian Cossack Hetmanate, into the Russian Empire.

A Note on the Kuban Affair (1932-1933) : the Crisis of Kolkhoz Agriculture in the North Caucasus
Title A Note on The Kuban Affair (1932-1933) : The crisis of kolkhoz agriculture in the North Caucasus Author(s) Shimotomai, Nobuo Citation Acta Slavica Iaponica, 1, 39-56 Issue Date 1983 Doc URL http://hdl.handle.net/2115/7926 Type bulletin (article) File Information KJ00000033980.pdf Instructions for use Hokkaido University Collection of Scholarly and Academic Papers : HUSCAP A Note on The Kuban Affair (1932-1933) The crisis of kolkhoz agriculture in the North Caucasus* Nobuo Shimotomai 1 Introduction As is fully described by Professor Y. Taniuchi and Professor R. W. Davies in their monumental works, wholesale collectivization in the beginning of 1930's together with its aftermath, totally changed the social system of the rural areas in the Soviet Union. I) By 1932, almost all the main agricultural regions had completed the task of collectivization and liquidation of the kulaks. The kolkhoz system now became the main form of agricultural production. Accordingly, Soviet official history emphasizes the establishment of the 'foundation of Socialism' at that time. However, it is generally recognized that the years 1932-1933 were difficult, even disastrous for the kolkhoz peasants, and that there was considerable famine in the Ukraine and the North Caucasus, although these phenomena are not totally analyzed as yet. 2) On the policy level, there is reported a drastic shift in agricultural reorganization. Such changes as the institutionalization of the passport system, the nationalization of MTS, the disbanding of Kolkhoztsentr and the replacement

Military Traditions of the Don Cossacks in the Late Imperial Period T
Вестник СПбГУ. История. 2020. Т. 65. Вып. 3 Military Traditions of the Don Cossacks in the Late Imperial Period T. E. Zulfugarzade, A. Yu. Peretyatko For citation: Zulfugarzade T. E., Peretyatko A. Yu. Military Traditions of the Don Cossacks in the Late Imperial Period. Vestnik of Saint Petersburg University. History, 2020, vol. 65, issue 3, рp. 771–789. https://doi.org/10.21638/11701/spbu02.2020.305 The issue of the development of military traditions in the Cossack milieu on the eve of the 20th century is a matter of debate in contemporary Russian historiography. A number of scholars (e. g., A. V. Iarovoi and N. V. Ryzhkova) have argued that the Cossacks’ system of historical military traditions remained viable until 1917. Other researchers (e. g., O. V. Matveev) have claimed that the system of Cossack military traditions had actually experienced a crisis and collapsed by then. This paper seeks to establish the truth. To accomplish this, the authors draws upon a set of newly discovered responses from Russian generals to the report of the Maslakovets Commission. The paper shows that the Cossacks’ historical traditions of military training in the stanitsas were forgotten not by the beginning of the 20th century, but by the 1860s. During this time, declining combat capability of the Don units, with 50 % of the young Cossacks entering military service by the beginning of the 20th century “poorly” and “unsat- isfactorily” prepared, drew the attention of Alexander II. The War Ministry endeavored to revive the Cossacks’ martial games and military training in the stanitsas. However, according to certain Cossack generals, its actions, at the same time, had violated the historical Cossack traditions of military training, causing, by certain testimonies, their total ruin by the begin- ning of the 20th century.

Background Information on Chechnya
Background Information on Chechnya A study by Alexander Iskandarian This study was commissioned by UNHCR. The views expressed in this study by the author, Director of the Moscow-based Centre for Studies on the Caucasus, do not necessarily represent those of UNHCR. Moscow, December 2000 1. Background information on Chechnya Under Article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the Republic of Chechnya is mentioned as one of the 89 subjects of the Federation. Chechnya officially calls itself the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. It is situated in the east of the Northern Caucasus, with an area of around 15,100 square kilometres (borders with the Republic of Ingushetia have not been delimited; in the USSR, both republics were part of the Chechen-Ingush Autonomous Republic). According to the Russian State Committee on Statistics, as of January 1993, Chechnya had a population of around 1,100,000. There are no reliable data concerning the current population of Chechnya. Chechens are the largest autochthonous nation of the Northern Caucasus. By the last Soviet census of 1989, there were 958,309 Chechens in the USSR, 899,000 of them in the SSR of Russia, including 734,500 in Checheno-Ingushetia and 58,000 in adjacent Dagestan where Chechens live in a compact community.1 The largest Chechen diaspora outside Russia used to be those in Kazakhstan (49,500 people) and Jordan (around 5,000). One can expect the diaspora to have changed dramatically as a result of mass migrations. Chechnya has always had a very high population growth rate, a high birth rate and one of the lowest percentages of city dwellers in Russia.
