  • The Influence of Innovation on Social and Economic Development of the Russian Regions
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XXI, Special Issue 2, 2018 pp. 767-776 The Influence of Innovation on Social and Economic Development of the Russian Regions E.M. Akhmetshin1, D.K. Dzhavatov2,3, E.A. Sverdlikova4, M.S. Sokolov5, O.A. Avdeeva6, G.P. Yavkin7 Abstract: The article provides estimates of innovation parameters’ influence on social and economic development of regions measured as per capita gross regional product. The empirical part of the research comprises the regression model that demonstrates interrelations in a region-wide breakdown, considering the differentiation of innovation development level of regions grouped into homogenous clusters. The results provide evidence of two forces. One of these stands for the traditional academic and industrial science attributed with plan-fact indicators. The other, in its idea and contents, is fully matching with the R&D market concept since it exists and functions in a competitive environment, strives to self-financing and commercialization. Therefore, performance indicators and growth rates of this segment are far ahead the ones of the traditional science.

  • Features of Modern Architecture of the Capital Cities of the Tyumen Region
    MATEC Web of Conferences 212, 04013 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201821204013 ICRE 2018 Features of modern architecture of the capital cities of the Tyumen region Alexander Panfilov1,* 1Industrial University of Tyumen Chair of Architecture and Design, 625000, Volodarskogo str., 38, Tyumen, Russia Abstract. The article considers the organization’s peculiarities of the regional architecture of the Tyumen region cities. This article contains shot materials about the features of the regional architecture in the context of its organization both for individual administrative and territorial features, and in relation to the specifics of the region's economic and production potentials. As the most vivid example for carrying out the synthetic analysis, the capital cities of the administrative territorial units of the Tyumen region were taken: the south of the Tyumen region - Tyumen, the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous District (Yugra) - Khanty-Mansiysk, the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District - Salekhard. In recent times of the development of human society, the processes of globalization and unification are increasingly manifesting themselves. The underlined identity, expressed in the involvement of "global", "fashionable", "stylish" and "modern", leads first of all to the fact that once someone caught images and stylistic devices begin to massively replicate, despite the relevance of their application in that or otherwise. All this negatively affects not only the quality of urban architecture, but also the quality of life in a modern city. At the same time, there is a decline in individual, authoritative characteristics of architecture, the imagery, originality, harmony and contextuality of architecture developed under the influence of natural and climatic factors, cultural peculiarities and functional economic orientation of regions are lost.

  • Siberia's Social and Economic Processes

Toshchenko Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Dr. Sci. (Philos.), Professor, Head of the Department of the Theory and History of Sociology, Russian State University for the Humanities (Moscow, Russian Federation); Chief Researcher, Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow, Russian Federation) [email protected] Abstract. This article analyses the life of the modern Russian humanitarian intelligentsia based on the sociological concept of life, the key concept of which is the life world in all its richness of manifestation: social (group and individual) consciousness, behaviour (activity) in the social macro-, meso-, and microenvironment. This approach allows to reveal the specifics of life of the contemporary Russian intelligentsia and its diverse life worlds, which were analysed: a) as social and professional groups; b) as world outlook communities (socialist, liberal, nation- alistic, patriotic, technocratic, and other orientations); c) through the characteristics of the main types of its activities (labor, politics, culture, way of life, etc.); d) as social groups, the precarious work and lifestyle of which is becoming increasingly distinct. The article provides the results of representative studies of humanitarian intelligentsia, conducted in 2016 in 14 regions of the country (n = 1,450). The author draws conclusions about the existence of many problems in the life of the Russian humanitarian intelligentsia that require urgent solutions. He emphasises that the present and future of the intelligentsia cannot exist on their own, but are valuable when they rely on the experience of the past and feed on the blood and flesh of the problems that are really solved.

  • The EU in Eastern Europe HAS NORMATIVE POWER BECOME GEOPOLITICAL?
    The EU in Eastern Europe HAS NORMATIVE POWER BECOME GEOPOLITICAL? PONARS Eurasia Policy Memo No. 310 February 2014 Andrey Makarychev University of Tartu Andrey Devyatkov University of Tyumen The November 2013 Eastern Partnership (EaP) summit in Vilnius played a key role in the transformation of the concept of the EU as a normative power. The summit was not only a focal point for developing the EU’s eastward policy, it has repositioned the EU as a geostrategic actor. Even Germany, which is usually cast as an “advocate” for Russia, joined other EU member states in support of the “European choice” of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia. The urge to counter Russian aspirations in these countries has created a rare period of European foreign policy unity. At the same time, the ability of the EU to effectively adopt a geopolitical approach in Eastern Europe is limited because of a series of structural and institutional factors. In the end, the outcome of these contemporary East-West tussles will depend more on actions on the ground than on various balances of power between Brussels and Moscow. The EU Plays Geopolitics Most European experts would not rank countries like Moldova or even Ukraine at the very top of the EU’s foreign policy priorities. Yet in EU discourse, the EaP’s success is often referred to as a pivotal element of EU political actorness. EU elites gradually reconsidered their previous skepticism about Moldova and Georgia (and, at least before the latest developments, Ukraine) and believed it possible for these states to engage in a normative rapprochement with the EU.

  • Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ)
    H-SHERA Soviet Photography Exhibition and Upcoming Virtual Lecture (Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ) Discussion published by Maria Garth on Thursday, September 9, 2021 Dear colleagues, I'm writing to invite you to visit the exhibition I curated at the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ: Communism Through the Lens: Everyday Life Captured by Women Photographers in the Dodge Collection, now on view through October 17, 2021, in the Lower Level Dodge Gallery. The exhibition highlights the unique – and often overlooked – photographic innovations by women who shaped the history of photography during the 20th century. Drawn entirely from the Norton and Nancy Dodge Collection of Nonconformist Art from the Soviet Union at the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University, Communism Through the Lens spans almost the entirety of the Soviet Union’s history, from the 1920s through the 1990s. It explores themes of political art, documentary photography, and gender, with more than 130 objects, the majority of which have never been exhibited in the United States. You can also view the virtual presentation of the exhibition and the brochure/catalog on the Zimmerli's website: https://zimmerli.rutgers.edu/node/128 In conjunction with the exhibition, the Zimmerli Art Museum welcomes Erika Wolf, Ph.D., who will present a virtual lecture on Soviet photography in print, focusing on the work of women photographers and artists.
