But St. Petersburg’s three centuries have matured its material authenticity, recognizable tableaux and unique urban narratives, chiefly the Petersburg Text. The three of these, intertwined in their formation and development, created a distinctive place-identity. The aura arising from this distinctiveness functioned as a marketable code not only for St. Petersburg’s heritage industry, but also for a future-oriented engagement with post-Soviet hypercapitalism. Reflecting on both up-to-date scholarship and the actual cityscapes themselves, my dissertation will focus on the imaginative landscapes in the historic center of St. -

Appeared In: European Energy Review
Appeared in: European Energy Review http://www.europeanenergyreview.eu/site/pagina.php?id=3899 Putin increases control over Russian energy By Alexander Gusev Russian President Vladimir Putin has recently created a new Energy Commission by which he is seeking to wrest control over the energy sector from the government of Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. This move will lead to a further strengthening of the role of the State in the Russian oil and gas industry. It is bad news for those who are hoping for a more transparent investment climate, argues Alexander Gusev, Research Fellow at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP). On May 7, 2012, Vladimir Putin returned as President of Russia, swapping roles with his predecessor, Dmitry Medvedev, who took over as Prime Minister. There have been many speculations about the distribution of powers between the two. Since political power in Russia is to a large extent determined by control over energy resources, any institutional changes in this sphere create a new balance of powers. At the annual congress of United Russia, the dominant political party, in September last year, Medvedev put forward Putin as the Presidential candidate, emphasizing that it was “a deeply thought-out decision” discussed “as early as when our union was being formed.” In turn Putin expressed his confidence that Medvedev would form a “new, effective, young and energetic” cabinet and “continue his work on modernizing all aspects of our lives.” Despite the close personal ties between the two politicians, they do represent different camps in the Russian power structure and it is pertinent to ask who makes the decisions in the Russian energy field, keeping in mind that how the decision-making process is organized formally is different from how it works in practice. -
Industrial Heritage As a Driver for Placemaking
INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE AS A DRIVER FOR PLACEMAKING URBAN REGENERATION AND HERITAGE CONSIDERATION IN SAINT PETERSBURG Master Thesis in Spatial Planning Utrecht University Faculty of Geosciences Vera Neshataeva Student number: 6838448 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Hans Renes Department of Human Geography and Planning October 2020 PREFACE Industrial heritage sites have always fascinated me with their powerful architecture and spirit. The use of heritage as an asset for cultural and socio-economic regeneration has caught my attention as a highly debated topic in spatial planning research. I grew up and lived almost my entire life in historical Saint Petersburg, and the question of how to balance heritage conservation and urban development has interested me for a long time. Last year I moved to the Netherlands to take an exciting path in my life – the Spatial Planning master program at Utrecht University. Living abroad experience gave me an opportunity to elaborate a fresh vision on my homeland, its issues and prospects for future development. This master thesis was written during difficult times – COVID-19 pandemics that affected everyone in the world. Staying away from my family for almost one year appeared challenging for me. Therefore, I would like to first thank my parents Valentina and Vasiliy for inspiring me on following the academic path, constantly supporting me by phone calls from Russia and for giving the opportunity to study in the Netherlands, without them this exciting year at Utrecht University and this thesis would have been impossible. I would like to thank everyone who was supporting me in the Netherlands during my study period. -

The twelfth progress report, issued by the interlocutors of the Energy Dialogue last December, is low on actual progress. Instead it appears more as a lowest common denominator, papering over profound divisions in a dialogue struggling to deliver tangible results. Economic logic is important to understand this development. But the failure of the Energy Dialogue is at once historical, institutional and political, as this paper will argue. The European Coal and Steel Community 2.0 The EU-Russia Energy Dialogue was launched on 30 October 2000, at the sixth EU-Russia Summit in Paris, France. -

1 Re-Adjusting to Life After War: The Demobilization of Red Army Veterans in Leningrad and The Leningrad Region 1944-1950 Robert Dale Thesis presented for Ph.D examination at Queen Mary, University of London September 2010 2 Declaration of authorship I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own and all references are cited accordingly. ............................................................................................................................................. (Robert Dale) 3 Abstract This dissertation explores the demobilization of veterans of the Great Patriotic War in Leningrad and the surrounding countryside between 1944 and 1950. This was a period of immense social and economic change, as late Stalinist society struggled with the aftermath of total war. Demobilization is examined here as the processes by which veterans returned home and readapted to peace. Throughout the twentieth century European and North American societies have faced difficulties reabsorbing veterans. In contrast Soviet propaganda heralded demobilisation as a success. Veterans were presented as exemplary citizens and beneficiaries of state support and upwards social mobility. Based on archival research, published sources and oral history interviews, this thesis peels back the multiple layers of propaganda woven around demobilization to reveal a compelling tale of war‟s aftermath. It examines how veterans readjusted to a civilian life after exposure to mass death and extreme violence, and the challenges faced in returning to a society devastated and traumatized by war. Veterans expected certain privileges in exchange for wartime service. Entitlement, however, rarely manifested itself in practical advantage. Veterans were not protected from the post-war scramble for jobs and housing. The failure to meet post-war expectations generated enormous resentment.
