The research is based on the conviction that the development of the nonprofit sector is crucial for the regional socio-economic system and depends upon civic engagement. The results of an analysis of available statistical data and a sociological survey conducted in one of the Russian regions reveal that the share of the Russians engaged in volunteer activities is low; over 80% of the population do not participate in public activities; less than 10% have definite knowledge of working nonprofit organizations. The study allowed identifying three groups of the main barriers and formulating some recommendations for their overcoming. Keywords Russia; Nonprofit sector; Nongovernmental organization; Civic participation; Civic engagement. Introduction Sustainable development of Russian regions requires the fullest use of their internal potential. As the public and private sectors cannot meet all demands concerning the provision of high living standards for all groups of the population, it is necessary for local authorities to find new opportunities for effective and mutually beneficial cooperation with other economic actors. In Russian regions, in this regard a new trend becomes evident government starts to pay more attention to organizations of the third (nonprofit) sector.

  • Monuments of Church Architecture in Belozersk: Late Sixteenth to the Early Nineteenth Centuries
    russian history 44 (2017) 260-297 brill.com/ruhi Monuments of Church Architecture in Belozersk: Late Sixteenth to the Early Nineteenth Centuries William Craft Brumfield Professor of Slavic Studies and Sizeler Professor of Jewish Studies, Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies, Tulane University, New Orleans [email protected] Abstract The history of the community associated with the White Lake (Beloe Ozero) is a rich one. This article covers a brief overview of the developing community from medieval through modern times, and then focuses the majority of its attention on the church ar- chitecture of Belozersk. This rich tradition of material culture increases our knowledge about medieval and early modern Rus’ and Russia. Keywords Beloozero – Belozersk – Russian Architecture – Church Architecture The origins and early location of Belozersk (now a regional town in the center of Vologda oblast’) are subject to discussion, but it is uncontestably one of the oldest recorded settlements among the eastern Slavs. “Beloozero” is mentioned in the Primary Chronicle (or Chronicle of Bygone Years; Povest’ vremennykh let) under the year 862 as one of the five towns granted to the Varangian brothers Riurik, Sineus and Truvor, invited (according to the chronicle) to rule over the eastern Slavs in what was then called Rus’.1 1 The Chronicle text in contemporary Russian translation is as follows: “B гoд 6370 (862). И изгнaли вapягoв зa мope, и нe дaли им дaни, и нaчaли caми coбoй влaдeть, и нe былo cpeди ниx пpaвды, и вcтaл poд нa poд, и былa у ниx уcoбицa, и cтaли вoeвaть дpуг c дpугoм. И cкaзaли: «Пoищeм caми ceбe князя, кoтopый бы влaдeл нaми и pядил пo pяду и пo зaкoну».

  • Post-Soviet Border Disputes—The Case of Estonia, Latvia, and Russia
    The Long Shadow of History: Post-Soviet Border Disputes— The Case of Estonia, Latvia, and Russia Claes Levinsson ∗ Introduction Ever since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the question of the precise territo- rial delimitations of the Estonian and Latvian borders with the Russian Federation has been a source of discord between the states, and a permanent point of irritation. The question of these national boundaries became an important issue on the political agenda shortly after Estonia and Latvia regained their independence in 1991. The prin- cipal reason for this laid in the arbitrary transfers of territory and the “correction” of borders that was made by the Soviet government shortly after its reoccupation of the Baltic states. In 1991, both Estonia and Latvia pleaded their cases according to inter- national law, and demanded that the borders from the interwar period should be re- stored.1 During the mid-1990s, both Estonia and Latvia gave up their initial claims, and the substance of an agreement was negotiated between the parties. However, the Rus- sian Federation has ever since postponed the ratification of the agreement, claiming that it would not sign any treaty until other contested issues—such as the alleged dis- crimination against the large Russian-speaking minority in the Baltic states—are re- solved in a satisfactory manner. This means that there does not exist any formal and ratified solution to the question of the boundaries of Estonia and Latvia, and that the border issues between the parties are, at least formally, still unresolved. During the prolonged history of these border disputes, neither the EU nor NATO has actively interfered in the contretemps, and the absence of a ratified treaty did not prevent the accession of Estonia and Latvia to the EU and NATO in 2004.

Holiday advertising is a rather topical object of research that nowadays attracts attention of specialists in various branches opening new perspectives of investigating this phenomenon. One of them is the analysis of the specificity of functioning and perception of holiday advertising in various European and world countries including a comparative perspective of the border zone. The present paper reveals the specificity of the perception of holiday advertising by the example of the south-eastern region of Latvia – Latgale (the major object of the research) and Pskov region that is a part of the north-western federal province of Russia (the minor object of the research) on the basis of interviews carried out in 2018 with the participation of 906 residents of this border area. During the survey, respondents had an opportunity to express their opinion on holiday advertising in general as well as note the positive and negative impacts on a common present-day consumer. Processing of the survey data leads to the conclusion that the notion of holiday advertising in Latgale has been generally crystallized as it is rather often used in daily life, including for the selection of gifts for festive occasions, whereas in Pskov region there is no unified opinion on the essence and significance of holiday advertising yet as, in the respondents’ opinion, its potential is not used to a full extent.
