The Changing Pattern of Religious Belief: Perestroika and Beyond
Religion, State and Society, Vol. 22, No. 1, 1994 The Changing Pattern of Religious Belief: Perestroika and Beyond L YUDMILA VORONTSOVA AND SERGEI FILATOV In 1990-2, at the request of the Analytical Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, we carried out complex sociological research into the world view of the Russian population (in 1990-1 Leonti Byzov was also a member of the research group). In our research we were looking mainly at the state of religious belief and how it impinges on politics, culture and morality. In this article we are presenting some of the basic general tendencies in the evolution of religious belief over this period. In 1990 the survey was conducted in Moscow, Pskov, Khar'kov and in cities in the Moscow, Khar'kov and Smolensk ob/asti; sample size 1,855 people. In 1991 the survey was conducted in 12 cities in Russia and North Kazakhstan: Moscow, Pskov, Yekaterin burg, Vladikavkaz and others; sample size 2,000. In 1992 the survey was conducted in 15 cities in Russia and Kazakhstan: Moscow, Pskov, Omsk, Stavropol', Ufa, Pechory, Gdov, Alma-Ata, Ural'sk and others; sample size 2,250. Under normal circumstances, three years would be a very short period of time. But in view of the fact that our country is currently seeing the establishment of new forms of consciousness, ideology and the expression of national identity, these three years could be compared to decades. In the sphere of ideology, it was during these years that the almost universal rejection of communist values and the flowering of religion on a mass scale became obvious. -

ESTLATRUS TRAFFIC Finished and Summarised
ESTLATRUS TRAFFIC finished and summarised "Saving lives, saving money!" was the resultative moto of project "Increasing traffic system’s capability within EE-LV-RU international importance transport corridors/ ESTLATRUS TRAFFIC" has been implemented within the time period April 1, 2014 till September 30, 2014, supported by the Estonia-Latvia-Russia cross border cooperation programme. Project results has saved lives by the improved road infrastructure, like in Tartu the crash cushion system has already saved at least one person´s life. On November, 2013 there was an accident on Riia street, Tartu, Estonia. Young driver lost control of his car and collided with crash cushion system. The crash cushion system has been repaired with the help of traffic insurance fund (http://www.tartupostimees.ee/2591704/tartus-juhitavuse-kaotanud-soiduki-peatas-porkeleevendi). The overall objective of the project was to increase the transport system’s sustainability, capability, accessibility and competitiveness of the Estonian-Latvian-Russian border region as the sphere of national interests through exchange and capacity building in visible traffic safety solutions and development of transport and road information infrastructure. All activities has been implemented within strong project partnership having about 20 cooperation organizations both municipalities, NGOs and state institutions. Cross-border resources for traffic safety has been mobilized by regular cross- border meetings, common patrolling in Russia, cross border study visits for the representatives of traffic safety institutions. Innovative cross-border traffic safety performance measures were implement like traffic safety campaigns "Sleep and drive!", "Mother, father and me - protected family!", "Safe Wheel", "Love life", "Know the traffic regulations abroad!". Even Santa Claus was organized the traffic safety campaign "Safe holidays" in Russia. -
