  • Comparative Analysis of the Process of Initial State Genesis in Rus' and Bulgaria
    Comparative Analysis of the Process of Initial State Genesis in Rus' and Bulgaria Evgeniy A. Shinakov Svetlana G. Polyakova Bryansk State University ABSTRACT There has not been completed yet the typological research of Euro- pean polities' forms (of the complexity level of ‘barbarous’ state- hood, ‘complex chiefdoms’, and rarely – ‘early states’ – in terms of political anthropology), and of the pathways of their emergence. This research can be amplified with the study of the First Bulgar- ian kingdom before Omurtag's and Krum's reforms (the end of the 7th – the early 9th century) and synchronous to it complex chief- dom of ‘Rosia’ (in terms of Porphyrpgenitus) of the end of the 9th – mid-10th century. They have typological similarity in military and contractual character of pathways of state genesis (in ‘Rosia’ it is supplemented by foreign trade) as well as in the form of ‘barba- rous’ (pre-Christian) statehood. It has a multilevel – ‘federal’ – character. At the head there were the Turks-Bulgarians and the ‘Rhos’ (‘Ruses’), whose settlements had limited territory, the ‘slavini- yas’ with their own power structure were subordinated to them and supervised by the ‘federal’ power strong points. The ‘supreme’ power domination is supported not only by the fear of weapon, but also by the treaties based on reciprocity. The common interest was, for exam- ple, the participation in robbery of the Byzantine Empire and interna- tional trade. At first in a peaceful way, later with conflicts, Bulgaria was transformed into a unitarian territorial state by the reforms of the pagans Оmurtag and Krum, and then of the Christian Boris (the latter had led to the conflict within the top level of power – among the Turkic-Bulgarians aristocracy).

  • Glass in Ancient and Medieval Eastern Europe As Evidence of International Contacts
    Archeologia Polski 61 (2016), pp. 191-212 Archeologia Polski, LXI: 2016 PL ISSN 0003-8180 Ekaterina STOLYAROVA GLASS IN ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL EASTERN EUROPE AS EVIDENCE OF INTERNATIONAL CONTACTS Abstract: This paper deals with glass artifacts as markers of interregional economic, religious and cultural links, trade routes, and social stratification. It is focused on finds from Eastern Europe from the Bronze Age to the 17th–18th centuries A.D. Keywords: glass beads, glass vessels, Eastern Europe, international links. Introduction Glass is one of the most ancient artificial materials possessing unique properties from which a variety of artifacts can be made. Among these are luxury artifacts and objects of applied art, tesserae for figured mosaics and stained glass, glass icons and ritual vessels, window-panes and tableware as well as small ornaments, i.e., arm rings, beads, fingerings, buttons and pendants. These artifacts were used in daily life, sold, donated, used to decorate clothes, interiors and architectural structures. They were symbols of their owner’s social and economic position. The value of glass as a historical source stems from its extensive application. Glass objects provide information on the formation and spread of glassmaking and on the place of glass in scientific concepts and the production of a given epoch. Chemical properties of glass and means of its production are of technological interest. Glass artifacts are important for the study of culture and daily life of a given epoch, e.g. the history of costume. Excavated glass objects are examined from the angle of their functions, peculiarities of their form and decoration, the spread and evolution of different type.

  • Evolution of the Belarusian National Movement in The
    EVOLUTION OF THE BELARUSIAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT IN THE PAGES OF PERIODICALS (1914-1917) By Aliaksandr Bystryk Submitted to Central European University Nationalism Studies Program In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Advisor: Professor Maria Kovacs Secondary advisor: Professor Alexei Miller CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2013 Abstract Belarusian national movement is usually characterised by its relative weakness delayed emergence and development. Being the weakest movement in the region, before the WWI, the activists of this movement mostly engaged in cultural and educational activities. However at the end of First World War Belarusian national elite actively engaged in political struggles happening in the territories of Western frontier of the Russian empire. Thus the aim of the thesis is to explain how the events and processes caused by WWI influenced the national movement. In order to accomplish this goal this thesis provides discourse and content analysis of three editions published by the Belarusian national activists: Nasha Niva (Our Field), Biełarus (The Belarusian) and Homan (The Clamour). The main findings of this paper suggest that the anticipation of dramatic social and political changes brought by the war urged national elite to foster national mobilisation through development of various organisations and structures directed to improve social cohesion within Belarusian population. Another important effect of the war was that a part of Belarusian national elite formulated certain ideas and narratives influenced by conditions of Ober-Ost which later became an integral part of Belarusian national ideology.

Organized Economic Crime and Corruption in Ukraine Alexander G. Kalman Yaroslav Mudry National Law Academy of Ukraine One of the most disastrous consequences of the collapse of the Ukrainian communist system has been the wide-spread increase of economic crime. This phenomenon is self-sustaining, penetrating all levels of Ukraine’s economy and administrative sectors. Criminal activity helps to sustain the shadow economy in Ukraine, which has been estimated by various sources to constitute 50-60% of the economy. Law enforcement and administrative efforts have been largely futile in curbing this corruption. Nevertheless, it is possible to overcome the criminal social and economic order that has become ingrained in this “shadow economy.” This paper seeks to propose policy solutions for Ukrainian economic crime and corruption, that could be implemented at the national level. Present day organized crime and corruption in Ukraine, complex in both content and structure, are a direct result of the profound economic, cultural, and political changes brought about during Ukraine’s transition as a Newly Independent State.

  • 1 4) Survivor Testimonies, Memoirs, Diaries, And
    4) SURVIVOR TESTIMONIES, MEMOIRS, DIARIES, AND LETTERS Introduction The fourth section of the Reader consists of testimonies, memoirs, and letters by famine victims. Most are by ordinary folk and are usually of a personal nature. At the same time, they provide a plethora of oftentimes painful and gut-wrenching details about the fate of family members and particular villages. Interestingly, several testimonies emphasize the limitation of the famine to Ukraine, noting that conditions just across the border in Russia were significantly better. A letter from German settlers in southern Ukraine to their relatives in North Dakota illustrates the fate of the German minority in Ukraine during the famine. Some testimonies were given before U.S. government-sponsored investigative bodies. Some, such as those published in The Black Deeds of the Kremlin, were collected and published by Ukrainian émigrés and Holodomor survivors at the height of the Cold War. This made it easy for those holding pro-Soviet views to dismiss them as anticommunist propaganda. A noteworthy personal account is that of Maria Zuk, who emigrated from southern Ukraine to western Canada to join her husband in the late summer of 1933, when she gave her interview to journalists working for a Ukrainian- language newspaper in Winnipeg. Another is Miron Dolot’s Execution by Hunger, published by a major American press in 1985. This section also contains materials from non-peasants: Fedir Pigido- Pravoberezhny, who worked as an engineer in Ukraine; Yurij Lawrynenko and Mykola Prychodko, both literary scholars; and Vladimir Keis, an urban worker at the time of the famine who retained strong ties with the Ukrainian village.

This article proposes a new approach to research into Ukrainian literary standard. This term – much better than the somewhat outdated term «literary language», suggesting a certain artistry of the author's utterance – is, however, still used in parallel with the generally accepted term literary language. The authors start from the theory created by Stanisław Urbańczyk and developed by Bohdan Walczak, according to which one can speak about literary language with the emergence of the first norm. The norm of the Ukrainian literary language has undoubtedly been created for many centuries and taking into account various cultural influences. However, undoubtedly its origins can be traced back to the period of Kyivian Rus. Similarly to Latin for Polish language, the Church Slavonic language for Ukrainian became an incentive to create one's own literary standard. The process of shaping the Polish and Ukrainian standards, however, was not the same.

    THE AMBIGUITIES OF SOVIET “PIEDMONTS”: SOVIET BORDERLAND POLICIES IN THE UKRAINIAN SSR AND THE MOLDOVAN ASSR, 1922-1934 Alexandr Voronovici A DISSERTATION in History Presented to the Faculties of the Central European University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Budapest, Hungary 2016 CEU eTD Collection Supervisor: Professor Alexei Miller ii Copyright in the text of this dissertation rests with the author.

CEU eTD Collection iii Abstract The dissertation analyzes Soviet borderland policies in the Ukrainian SSR and the Moldovan ASSR in the 1920s and early 1930s. Adopting the situational approach, I explore the Soviet struggle for borderlands on the Western border and the role of the cross-border cultural ties in it. The dissertation argues that the negotiations, different interpretations and the interplay between actors on both sides of the Soviet Western border influenced and framed the evolution of borderland policies in the Ukrainian SSR and the Moldovan ASSR in 1920s. Although, the Soviet Union was a centralized state with a disciplined party, there was still considerable space for conflicting interpretations of Moscow's directives and the promotion of personal agenda by Soviet leaders and activists.
