It is traditionally celebrated on the 9th of May. The holiday marks the capitulation of Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union in World War II in 1945. It became the end of the Great Patriotic War for the USSR, which lost more than 25 million citizens in the four years of fighting and starvation. Every year all cit- ies across the coun- try have lots of pa- rades and celebra- tions. Many people have lost close rela- tives and friends in this terrible war. Al- most every family in Russia has a person who didn’t return from the battlefield. On this day we are grateful to our saviors, to those who sacrificed their lives for us. There are some traditions that we follow. We give flowers to veterans and lay wreaths at war memorial sites. At home, we gather around a festive table to honor survivors and honor those who passed away. Photos by Vera V. Izyurova, Elena V. Vatoropina, Maria A. Udintseva, Natalia S.

ROTARY MOMENT https://youtu.be/4xblR68HEXU Mike introduced Mariel Olson from Camelback Crossroads Rotary Club to speak about their project with OCJ – Cases for a Cause. This project assists kids aging out of the foster system. OCJ brings transition dignity for these young adults. Over the past 3 years Camelback Crossroads has donated more than 1000 cases. Every week, 80 children are removed from their homes. There are 18,000 kids in the foster system and 16,000 calls are received per year at the Child Abuse Hotline. Camelback Crossroads Rotary started Cases for a Cause, a collection service where we pick up lightly used/ unused bags or suitcases and deliver them to the OCJ Kids warehouse. This project allows some of the 16,000 foster kids in Arizona the dignity of carrying their possessions in something besides a trash bag. OCJ Kids (Opportunity Community and Justice for Kids), founded in 1992, forming an alliance with the business and faith communities to provide services, resources and caring adults to address the needs of the most vulnerable in our society. Founders Gary and Tammie Webb’s passion was to reach out to the growing population of unsupervised youth aged 12-18 who were gathering after school with nothing productive to occupy their time and who were being tempted by negative influences, including gangs, drugs, and violent behavior.

  • Geopolitics Or Geoeconomics?
    China-Russia Relations: One Year Later: Geopolitics or Geoeconomics? by Yu Bin Associate Professor, Wittenberg University Two one-year anniversaries – the Russia-China friendship treaty and the Sept. 11 attacks – were very much in the minds of Russian and Chinese leaders during the third quarter of 2002. Both China and Russia publicly expressed satisfaction with the historic treaty that “legalizes” bilateral interactions. Beyond that, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Bismarckian diplomatic dexterity seemed to make Russia not only an eagerly sought member of the major power club, but also to position it in a crucial point between the West and the so-called “axis of evil” states (Iraq, Iran, and North Korea). Meanwhile, Beijing’s strategic and diplomatic constraints were somewhat alleviated by the country’s sustained economic growth. Between China and Russia, the much alluded to friendship treaty appeared only to offer another round of strategic maneuvering and mutual adjustment at the dawn of a new U.S. military doctrine of preemption that would displace deterrence. Premiers’ Tough Talk: Profit First, Friendship Second The quarter began with Russian Security Council Secretary Vladimir Rushailo’s visit to China on July 15-20 to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the friendship treaty. Rushailo met with almost all top Chinese leaders (President Jiang Zemin, Vice Premier Qian Qichen, Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan, Defense Minister Chi Haotian, acting State Security Minister Gen Huichang, and Public Security Minister Jia Chunwang). The seventh regular prime ministers’ meeting between Zhu Rongji and Mikhail Kasyanov in Shanghai on Aug. 21-23 was the most substantial high-level interaction for the third quarter.

  • Russia's “Soft Power”
    RUSSIA’S “SOFT POWER” STRATEGY A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies by Jill Dougherty, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. November 1, 2013 RUSSIA’S “SOFT POWER” STRATEGY Jill Dougherty, B.A. MALS Mentor: Angela Stent, Ph.D. ABSTRACT On October 30, 2013 the business-oriented Forbes.com put Russian President Vladimir Putin at the top of its list of “The World’s Most Powerful People,” unseating United States President Barack Obama. Forbes said its editors made the decision based on the power of the person over a large number of people, the financial resources controlled by the person, their power in multiple spheres, and the degree to which they actively use their power. Revisionist media commentary immediately followed the report, pointing out that Russia remains a regional power, that its economy, while improving, still ranks fifth in the world, significantly trailing those of the United States and China. The ranking also appeared to be, at least partially, a reaction to Russia’s skillful shift in diplomacy on the Syrian conflict, by which it proposed a plan to destroy the Assad regime’s chemical weapons. Others noted that Forbes is a conservative publication, and part of its editors’ motivation might have been the desire to criticize a Democratic President. It was, nevertheless, a stunning turn-about for Russia’s President, an indication of how quickly evaluations of a leader and his or her country can shift, based on their perceived influence.

And then, one minute before the hour, through the disturbance came the notes of “Moscow Nights”. Perhaps elsewhere the Cold War was frigid and stale, but here, over high frequency radio, the Cold War was hot. Radio Moscow played a leading role in that hot war over the airwaves – just as much as the Voice of America, Radio Free Europe, and Radio Liberty. Yet, very little has surfaced in the West regarding the role of Radio Moscow in the Cold War. My paper works to analyze this significant player in the battle between the United States and the Soviet Union.

  • Russia's Return to Central Asia Following September 11
    +høNWLVDGLYHøGDUL%LOLPOHU)DNOWHVL'HUJLVL&LOW6D\ÕV-319 RUSSIA’S RETURN TO CENTRAL ASIA FOLLOWING SEPTEMBER 11 Havva KÖK (Assist. Prof., Hacettepe University, Department of International Relations, 06800, Ankara, TURKEY) [email protected] Abstract: The present study attempts to analyse whether Russian foreign policy towards Central Asia has altered after September 11 attacks; if it did, how it changed and what its implications for the region will be. It is argued that though immediately after 9/11 Russia welcomed American presence in its “backyard”, after a while to keep Russian pragmatism in its relations with Central Asia has been difficult. Since the war in Iraq, particularly, Russia has launched a comprehensive effort to bring Central Asia under its control using military and economic instruments. However, whether Russia’s efforts for exclusive hegemony in Central Asia will fail or succeed still remains in question.

  • Sing Your City: Local Stories of Global Artifacts
    Sociology Study, March 2019, Vol. 9, No. 3, 116-127 doi: 10.17265/2159-5526/2019.03.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING Sing Your City: Local Stories of Global Artifacts Alexander Rosenblatt Zefat Academic College, Zefat, Israel The article discusses five local stories that, without being connected to each other, tell about the socio-cultural circumstances accompanying creation of works of art that have received significant (but not the highest) recognition on a global scale. The discussion concerns three songs about cities: Torna a Surriento, Moscow Nights, and Li Beirut; a famous Soviet painting Low Marks Again; and the design features of Audi cars for the US market over the past decade. The approach to each certain artifact, be it song, painting, or the design of rear turn signals, is developed on the basis of disciplinary affiliation, whereas a discipline is more sociology, anthropology, or history of an appropriate art, than its theory. Another research method places a local context into the test tube of globalization. Experience shows that these two methods are applicable to different arts, places, and periods enriching the scientist with more detailed information about the era studied. Keywords: global artifact, second echelon, songs about cities, dog in a painting, rear turn signals Introduction Life in a global era dictates its own laws. One of those is undoubtedly the increasing level of standardization of life, especially in cities, and even more so in megacities. Houses, apartments, cars, food, and work—all this is almost unified. Nature and weather seem to strongly resist standardization, although the microclimate in residential, industrial, and commercial premises, as well in cars, is practically equalizing this part of the differences in the lives of people at different continents and latitudes.
