36- 3-2018 -Angliyskiy.Pdf PRESIDENT’S COLUMN The development of submarines always aroused great interest everywhere, including among people far from the fleet. So it was in 1834, when the Schilder-designed submarine was tested, and in 1958, when the Leninsky Komsomol joined the Soviet submarine fleet. These pages of the chronicle of the domestic submarine–building industry now belong to history. Today we remember those who stood at the origins. I want to thank the employees of our shipyards and their museums that cherish the memory of our common history and helped us prepare the publications. ASSEMBLAGE In this issue you will also find materials on the development of civil shipbuilding, the condition POINT of inland waterways, the renewal of fishing and cargo fleets.

  • America's Withdrawal from Siberia and Japan-US Relations
    The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 24 (2013) America’s Withdrawal from Siberia and Japan-US Relations Shusuke TAKAHARA* INTRODUCTION Japan-US relations after the Russo-Japanese War (1904–5) were gradually strained over the Open Door in Manchuria, the naval arms race in the Pacific, and Japanese immigration into the United States. After the Russo-Japanese War, Japan emerged as a regional power and proceeded to expand its interests in East Asia and the Pacific. The United States also emerged as an East Asian power in the late nineteenth century and turned its interest to having an Open Door in China and defending the Western Pacific. During World War I the relationship of the two countries deteriorated due to Japanese expansion into mainland China (Japan’s Twenty-One Demands on China in 1915). As the Lansing-Ishii agreement (1917) indicated, their joint war effort against Germany did little to diminish friction between Japan and the United States. After World War I, however, the Wilson administration began to shift its policy toward Copyright © 2013 Shusuke Takahara. All rights reserved.

  • 'When the United States Invaded Russia: Woodrow Wilson's Siberian Disaster'
    H-War Demchak on Richard, 'When the United States Invaded Russia: Woodrow Wilson's Siberian Disaster' Review published on Thursday, October 31, 2013 Carl J. Richard. When the United States Invaded Russia: Woodrow Wilson's Siberian Disaster. Lanham: Rowman and Littlefield, 2012. xiii + 195 pp. $38.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-4422-1989-2. Reviewed by Tony Demchak (Kansas State) Published on H-War (October, 2013) Commissioned by Margaret Sankey The American intervention in Siberia after the October Revolution of 1917 is among the most poorly understood aspects of American involvement during World War I. A significant number of American soldiers, approximately ten thousand, were sent in July 1918 to try to stiffen the resolve of the Whites under Admiral Alexander Kolchak and the Czech Legion and to topple the Bolshevik regime and therefore bring Russia back into World War I, which it singularly failed to do. As Carl J. Richard says in his introduction, "Indeed, Allied support for the corrupt, autocratic, and oppressive regime of Alexander Kolchak backfired completely, causing many Russians who were not previously Bolshevik to rally around the red banner" (p. xi). Overall, Richard argues that the failed intervention in Siberia is a useful case study in American foreign policy. He draws comparisons to Vietnam and underscores the importance of gaining acceptance by natives of any region in which one wishes to conduct counterinsurgencies. He goes so far as to say that interventions, as a whole, are "generally inadvisable" (p. xi). The meat of Richard's book is contained in two chapters. The second chapter focuses on American historians' theories delineating why President Woodrow Wilson chose to intervene in Siberia.

  • Men-On-The-Spot and the Allied Intervention in the Russian Civil War, 1917-1920 Undergraduate
    A Highly Disreputable Enterprise: Men-on-the-Spot and the Allied Intervention in the Russian Civil War, 1917-1920 Undergraduate Research Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation "with Honors Research Distinction in History" in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Conrad Allen The Ohio State University May 2016 Project Advisor: Professor Jennifer Siegel, Department of History The First World War ended on November 11, 1918. The guns that had battered away at each other in France and Belgium for four long years finally fell silent at eleven A.M. as the signed armistice went into effect. "There came a second of expectant silence, and then a curious rippling sound, which observers far behind the front likened to the noise of a light wind. It was the sound of men cheering from the Vosges to the sea," recorded South African soldier John Buchan, as victorious Allied troops went wild with celebration. "No sleep all night," wrote Harry Truman, then an artillery officer on the Western Front, "The infantry fired Very pistols, sent up all the flares they could lay their hands on, fired rifles, pistols, whatever else would make noise, all night long."1 They celebrated their victory, and the fact that they had survived the worst war of attrition the world had ever seen. "I've lived through the war!" cheered an airman in the mess hall of ace pilot Eddie Rickenbacker's American fighter squadron. "We won't be shot at any more!"2 But all was not quiet on every front.

  • Alexis Shelokov Oral History Transcript
    Interview: Alexis Shelokov Page 1 NIH History Office Alexis Shelokov Interview December 12, 2005 Lisa Walker: This is Lisa Walker, interviewing Dr. Alexis Shelokov on December 12, 2005 in Dallas, Texas. This interview is part of Lisa Walker’s research as a DeWitt Stetten Fellow in the Office of NIH History. Can you just give me a verbal “yes” that you know we’re recording? Alexis Shelokov: Yes, I do. LW: Okay. Dr. Shelokov, my question to you specifically starting off, is about growing up and who your role models were, in terms of your decisions later to go into science, to go into medicine, first of all. AS: Well, okay. One [set] of role models, not surprisingly, were two physicians. I come from a family in which no one had ever been in medicine. There were scientists, natural scientists, on my mother’s side. [On my] Father’s side, I do not know. But when I told my father that I wanted to be a doctor, he became very upset, and he said something to effect of: “You mean to tell me that you want to do rectal examinations on people? and you want to do pelvic examinations on women whom you very [well] might even know socially?” I don’t remember the exact words, but basically he said, “What are you? Are you a pervert of some sort?” LW: Interesting, that was his first impression. AS: That’s right. Well, he’s from another generation, and it was inconceivable to him that I would like to do this kind of thing.

  • Russian Civil War JCC: the Russian Imperial Army (The White Army) Committee Abstract
    THE EIGHTH ANNUAL ALABAMA MODEL UNITED NATIONS Russian Civil War JCC: The Russian Imperial Army (The White Army) Committee Abstract Crisis Director Ciara Malaugh [email protected] Chair Rachel Brasier [email protected] THE EIGHTH ALABAMA MODEL UNITED NATIONS | ALMUN VIII 2 URGENT: CHAOS IN RUSSIA Undisclosed Sender Undisclosed Location Delegates, I write to you not as an advocate for either side, but as a party concerned about the future of Russia. For my own safety, I refuse to disclose my name, but I beg of you to listen. These past few months have been tumultuous and violent; the murder of the Romanov’s and the Provisional Government was a fragile period, but yesterday, the Provisional Government was overthrown violently by the Bolshevik Party, in what has been deemed the October Revolution. The Bolsheviks find their leader in Vladimir Lenin. I do not know what will happen as the country proceeds forth, but there are clearly emerging and influential dynamics. Although the Bolsheviks may have gained power, they will not persist to rule without resistance. A WHITE ARMY has organized in direct opposition to the Bolsheviks, who form the RED ARMY. The WHITE ARMY calls themselves the Russian Imperial Army, and they are attempting to gain back control of Russia from the Bolsheviks. Their strength comes from profound military strategy and their leader, Alexander Kolchak. The ideologies of the members differ, and they lack popular support, but they have laudable experience with warfare and administration, as well as an unbreakable anti- Communist sentiment that permeates into all of their work.

  • 268 Kansas History William Allen White and the Russian Revolution
    William Allen White (1868-1944) was the editor of the Emporia Gazette, and in his capacity as a journalist, he was invited to attend an aborted peace conference at Prinkipo in Turkey in early 1919, a trip that instilled in him a lifelong interest in Russia and its politics. Courtesy of the Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division, Washington, D.C. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 38 (Winter 2015–2016): 268-282 268 Kansas History William Allen White and the Russian Revolution by Norman E. Saul illiam Allen White is best known as a homespun and witty commentator on Kansas and American political, social, and economic life of the first half of the twentieth century. He accomplished this through editorials in his Emporia Gazette, syndicated columns and articles, and several popular books directed at mainstream, middle-class Americans. His role in and writings on international affairs are played down, in fact barely mentioned, not only by his biographers but by White himself in his classic autobiography.1 Yet White’s Wextensive correspondence, newspaper accounts, and many editorials reveal considerable interest in the far abroad, especially in what was happening in Russia, and to Russia, through the impact of World War I and by the consequences of the long-term and deeply ingrained radical socialist movement. My interest in this other side of the “sage of Emporia” stemmed from learning of his “surprise” appointment by President Woodrow Wilson as one of two American delegates to the aborted Prinkipo Conference in early 1919.2 A subset of the Paris Peace Conference, this was an attempt by the peacemakers at Paris to bring the various Russian political factions, including the Bolsheviks, together to try to sort out their differences in a neutral setting.

  • Romanov News Новости Романовых
    Romanov News Новости Романовых By Ludmila & Paul Kulikovsky №140 November 2019 The Order of the Holy Great Martyr and Victorious George - 250 years anniversary 250 years anniversary of the Imperial Military Order of the Holy Great Martyr and Victorious George The Order of the Holy Great Martyr and Victorious George, the most honourable military order in Russia, was established on December 7 (Old style November 26), 1769, by Empress Catherine the Great. Its motto was “For service and courage”. The Order of St. George was distinguished by its statute among other Russian orders as a reward for personal valour in battle, and the merits for which an officer could be awarded a prize were strictly regulated by the statute: "Neither the high breed, nor the wounds received before the enemy, give the right to be granted this order: but this is given to those who not only corrected their position in everything by oath, honour and duty, but also distinguished themselves by their special what a courageous act, or the wise, and for Our military service, gave useful advice ... This order should never be removed: for it is acquired through merit". The Order had four degrees: 1st degree. The order's badge is a white enamel cross with widening ends and a gold border along the edges. In the middle of the cross, on the medallion, there is the image of the Moscow coat of arms. On the reverse side of the medallion there is a monogram of the saint: "SG". It was weared on a ribbon from should to hip.

  • Economic History of Russia: New Topics and Approaches
    Russian Journal of Economics 7 (2021) 91–92 DOI 10.32609/j.ruje.7.71057 Publication date: 9 July 2021 www.rujec.org Introduction Economic history of Russia: New topics and approaches Leonid I. Borodkin * Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia This Russian Journal of Economics special issue is devoted to economic his- tory, an interdisciplinary field at the intersection of history and economics. This field has been actively developing for more than half a century, and its successes were recognized by the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1993, which was awarded to Robert Fogel and Douglas North. The rationale for this decision of the Swedish Royal Academy included their great contribution to a “new economic history” (or cliometrics): “Their work has deepened our knowledge and understanding within fundamental areas of research, as to how, why and when economic change occurs… Fogel and North have thus in different ways renewed research in eco- nomic history, by making it more stringent and more theoretically conscious.”1 The articles in this issue of the journal characterize the active development of economic history research in the 21st century. The cliometric direction in its most pronounced form is represented in the work of Carol S. Leonard, Zafar Nazarov, Leonid I. Borodkin, Maria A. Karpenko, and Roman B. Konchakov. Their paper considers the influence of railroads construction on the dynamics of prices for agricultural land in Russia from 1860 to 1910. The authors confirm the hypothesis that building of railroads in a particular area should lead to an increase in land prices in it (as was the case in European countries and the USA in the 19th century).

An especially interesting aspect of this topic is the transformation of values and worldview of the nobility in the conditions of the dominant communist ideology.
