Strengthening cooperation with large state corporations ensures intensive development of high-tech manufacture, innovative ventures and region’s economic development. In recent years the Yaroslavl region has demonstrated a steady industrial production growth; in the first quarter of 2019 industrial production index was almost 123% (102% for Russia). Pharmaceutical cluster enterprises that constantly expand participating companies significantly contribute to the industrial development. Large projects are being implemented in the Yaroslavl region by Takeda Pharmaceuticals, R-Farm, NT Pharma, Vita Pharma and Teva companies. Drug quality test laboratory of the Federal Service for Surveillance in Healthcare is to be put in operation in 2019. Last year production of the Ninlaro innovative drug began, promoting Russian pharmaceutical industry to a fundamentally new development level. Previously such drugs were released into civil circulation only in five countries (Japan, France, USA, Germany, and Austria). Russia became Dmitry Yurievich the sixth. Besins Healthcare plant will begin operations in June 2019. It will produce Utrogestan included in the All-Russian Vital Medicines List. In the first half of 2019 there are plans to open MIRONOV Pharmoslavl pharmaceutical factory for production of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Governor The regional government is expanding cooperation with large state corporations and holding of the Yaroslavl Region companies. In 2018 space modules assembly department was opened at the Yaroslavl Radio Plant. We are starting to establish medical equipment cluster jointly with the Rostec Corporation. In 2020 the first Russian production of medical needles will be launched. In addition to it, intelligent innovation cluster of digital networks will be created, and smart electricity meters production project will be implemented. In general, investment portfolio of the region includes more than a hundred projects amounting to a total over 200 billion rubles. Three areas of priority development have been established in the region – in towns of Rostov, Tutaev and Gavrilov Yam. Here, investors are granted property, profit and land tax relief and also have reduced social charges. The Yaroslavl region has all prerequisites for further economic advanced development. We are ready to support and consolidate the dialogue of science, government and business regarding innovative projects development, to elaborate joint solutions for development of prospective Russian and export markets. 2 The Yaroslavl region is one of the main Russian economic centers. Regional enterprises manufacture aircraft and diesel engines, electrical equipment and sophisticated instruments, build sea and river vessels, produce petroleum derivatives, paint materials, and medicines. There are over 3 thousand enterprises including more than 270 large ones in the Yaroslavl region. The leading regional industry is machine engineering. Autodiesel Yaroslavl Motor Plant presented its new development, a Euro 6 environmental standard diesel engine with main emphasis on emissions reduction at IAA – 2018, the largest world exhibition of commercial vehicles held in Hanover. PJSC UCE-Saturn is the main designer and manufacturer of engines for civil and military aviation. The company has full high-tech manufacturing cycle of upgraded gas turbine engine for driving electric generators in assembly with high capacity power plants. Yaroslavl region factories are among most advanced in all Russian industrial sectors and some of them are entirely unique.

  • Peasants “On the Run”: State Control, Fugitives, Social and Geographic Mobility in Imperial Russia, 1649-1796
    PEASANTS “ON THE RUN”: STATE CONTROL, FUGITIVES, SOCIAL AND GEOGRAPHIC MOBILITY IN IMPERIAL RUSSIA, 1649-1796 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Andrey Gornostaev, M.A. Washington, DC May 7, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Andrey Gornostaev All Rights Reserved ii PEASANTS “ON THE RUN”: STATE CONTROL, FUGITIVES, SOCIAL AND GEOGRAPHIC MOBILITY IN IMPERIAL RUSSIA, 1649-1796 Andrey Gornostaev, M.A. Thesis Advisers: James Collins, Ph.D. and Catherine Evtuhov, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the issue of fugitive peasants by focusing primarily on the Volga-Urals region of Russia and situating it within the broader imperial population policy between 1649 and 1796. In the Law Code of 1649, Russia definitively bound peasants of all ranks to their official places of residence to facilitate tax collection and provide a workforce for the nobility serving in the army. In the ensuing century and a half, the government introduced new censuses, internal passports, and monetary fines; dispatched investigative commissions; and coerced provincial authorities and residents into surveilling and policing outsiders. Despite these legislative measures and enforcement mechanisms, many thousands of peasants left their localities in search of jobs, opportunities, and places to settle. While many fugitives toiled as barge haulers, factory workers, and agriculturalists, some turned to brigandage and river piracy. Others employed deception or forged passports to concoct fictitious identities, register themselves in villages and towns, and negotiate their status within the existing social structure.

  • Sediment Balance of the Volga Reservoirs
    Sediment balance of the Volga reservoirs IM. A. Ziminova Abstract. The main input component of the Volga Reservoir sediment balance is the product of bank and bed abrasion (60—80 per cent of the total input). The second component is the river suspended sediment discharge (20-40 per cent}. Only 1 -S per cent of the total sediment input is derived from plankton and the higher aquatics. The main component of the output is sedimentation (60-98 per cent). Suspended sediment discharge from reservoirs varies from 2 to 40 per cent of the total output. Résumé. La plus grande partie des entrés dans le bilan de sédiments des réservoirs de la Volga se compose des produits d'affouillement des beiges et du lit, il en résulte 60-80 pour cent du total des entrées. La deuxième place est occupée par l'écoulement des matières en suspension transportées par les rivières (20-40 pour cent). Le poids qui résulte de la production du phy to plankton et des plantes aquatiques supérieures constitue 1-5 pour cent de la rentrée générale. La principale partie des sorties est la sédimentation (60-98 pour cent). Les transports solides en suspension sortant des réservoirs constituent de 2 à 40 pour cent du total des sorties. Sediment balances of reservoirs are being compiled to estimate the silting of reservoirs and to forecast the tendency of this process. These balances allow one to determine the value of and to reveal the causes of quantitive changes in the sediment discharge under the conditions of flow regulation, and to consider possible changes in the composition of sediments.

THE REPUBLIC OF NOVGOROD (‘ LORD NOVGOROD THE GREAT," Gospodin Velikii Novgorod, as it once called itself, is the starting-point of Russian history. It is also without a rival among the Russian city-states of the Middle Ages. Kiev and Moscow are greater in political importance, especially in the earliest and latest mediaeval times-before the Second Crusade and after the fall of Constantinople-but no Russian town of any age has the same individuality and self-sufficiency, the same sturdy republican independence, activity, and success. Who can stand against God and the Great Novgorod ?-Kto protiv Boga i Velikago Novgoroda .J-was the famous proverbial expression of this self-sufficiency and success. From the beginning of the Crusading Age to the fall of the Byzantine Empire Novgorod is unique among Russian cities, not only for its population, its commerce, and its citizen army (assuring it almost complete freedom from external domination even in the Mongol Age), but also as controlling an empire, or sphere of influence, extending over the far North from Lapland to the Urals and the Ob.
