Eastern Europe. www.neweasterneurope.eu Dear Reader, In the eighth century BC Hesiod complained: “I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on the frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words.” The poet’s words echoed throughout centuries and were used by adults while addressing each subsequent young generation. Such is the nature of the unavoidable conflict of generations. In this issue, however, we argue against Hesiod. Our authors illustrate how the ongoing generational exchange that is taking place in the countries of the former Soviet Union, and especially in today’s Russia, brings hope, not despair. Even more, the youth that is coming of age in these countries today, although often misunder- stood by their parents and politicians, is probably the best indicator as to what could take place in the near future. Their unprecedented participation in the 2017 rallies in Russia shows that these kids care about their future. Hence, it is worth keeping in mind the words of sociolo- gist and researcher Svetlana Erpyleva who writes: “During the recent anti-corruption rallies in Russia, young people spoke out not only against the dishonesty of power and lack of political freedom in the country, but also against the unfair distribution of income between different groups, the inaccessible medical services, the high fees for student housing and growing food prices.” Not surprisingly, this potential is extremely tempting for politicians who – be it by direct communication (Alexei Navalny) or official instruction and historical policy (the Kremlin) try to shape their minds. As our authors note there is an increase of the latter, be it in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, which causes us to reflect on the ef- fectiveness of the methods used (such as a single interpretation of history in Russia or Belarus, or the new education reform in Ukraine) and the context in which they are introduced. If recent events can teach us anything, radical political change does not take place in the classroom, or in accordance with official rhetoric. Thus, while the immediate outcome of the March 2018 Russian presidential election may already be known, the long-term changes in the region are much more difficult to foresee, especially if we ignore the aspirations and values of these adolescents and young adults. With this in mind, we wish you an inspiring reading of this issue.

    First published in “Jochelson, Bogoras and Shternberg: A Scientific Exploration of Northeastern Siberia and the Shaping of Soviet Ethnography”, edited by Erich Kasten, 2018: 207 – 264. Fürstenberg/Havel: Kulturstiftung Sibirien. — Electronic edition for www.siberien-studies.org LEV IAKOVLEVICH SHTERNBERG: 8 AT THE OUTSET OF SOVIET ETHNOGRAPHY1 Anna A. Sirina and Tat‘iana P. Roon Introduction The works of Lev Iakovlevich Shternberg, the eminent Russian and Soviet scientist, accomplished theoretical evolutionist, professor, and corresponding member of the Soviet Academy of Sciences (from 1924), are well known by present day historians, ethnographers and anthropologists. An active public figure, he was engaged in the ethnography of the peoples of the Russian Far East and in Jewish ethnography. His acquaintance through correspondence with Friedrich Engels played a not insignificant role in his prominence: Engels wrote to Shternberg, having become acquainted with his discovery of group marriages amongst the Gilyak (or Nivkh) people (Shternberg et al. 1933; Shternberg 1933b: xvii-xix; see also Marx and Engels 1962, vol. 22: 364–367). This “discovery,” as with his description of other features of the Nivkh (Gilyak) social order, made on the Island of Sakhalin, was the beginning of his scientific activities. Over the period of his eight-year administrative exile he gathered unique field mate- rial on the language, folklore and social and religious life of the Nivkh. The results of his research were published in Russia beginning as early as 1893 (Shternberg 1893a; 1895; 1896). A considerable amount has been written on Lev Shternberg: obituaries, including ones in foreign journals,2 articles by ethnographers, archeologists, museologists and historians of science.3 Of particular interest is an absorbing book by Nina Gagen-Torn who, on the basis of personal recollections and archival documents, gives a vivid and emotional account of her teacher — the revolutionary and founder of the Leningrad School of Ethnography (Gagen-Torn 1971; 1975).

  • Russia's Knowledge Economy Decline
    Russia’s Knowledge Economy Decline: Views From Inside Harley Balzer Summary This paper begins with an overview of Russian assessments of knowledge economy challenges. It then focuses more specifically on problems in science and education. Special attention is devoted to bureaucratic competition, funding, personnel and the limited role of business in the knowledge economy. This is followed by examining several issues that merit particular attention in the aftermath of Crimea: potential partners for development; whether military R&D is an exception to prevailing difficulties; and the impact of sanctions. The concluding section focuses on consequences of decline and considers potential tipping points that could change the trajectory in positive or negative directions. * * * The two questions that have consumed the Russian intelligentsia since the 18th Century are kto vinovat’ (who is to blame) and chto delat’ (what is to be done). I have often joked that most Russians devote so much time and energy to the first question that they barely touch on the more crucial second question. In the case of Russia’s declining capacity in the knowledge economy, this is hardly a joke. The Russian discourse is focused overwhelmingly on how bad things are and who caused the problems. Those who disagree that the current trajectory means long-term decline invoke Russia’s great tradition in the natural sciences or Soviet successes in space and atomic energy, and they argue that the government simply needs to restore funding to an appropriate level in order for Russia’s vast pool of talent to restore the nation’s proper place in global science.

  • The Nivkh People of Sakhalin and Their Music
    THE NIVKH PEOPLE OF SAKHALIN AND THEIR MUSIC MY NIVKH JOURNEY BY PIA SIIRALA © Pia Siirala, 2007 From the original Sahalinin Nivkh-Alkuperäiskansan Musiikki Matkapäiväkirja English translation copyright © 2009 by Lygia O’Riordan © Ensemble XXI 2 ISBN 978-952-5789-01-0 INTRODUCTION This is the day-to-day journal of my field trip late last year to Sakhalin, when I worked with the indigenous Nivkh people for a second time, collecting more material, both through notating music on the spot and by making recordings of the Nivkhs singing for me. Since then I have composed two more pieces of music based on this Nivkh material – a Suite for Solo Violin and Ulita’s Walk for chamber orchestra. Both works will be given their world premieres in 2008. The Nivkhs and their music have been an enormous inspiration to me, to our orchestra Ensemble XXI and to our conductor, Lygia O’Riordan. Before my first field trip in 2004, Lygia O’Riordan, the conductor of Ensemble XXI, initiated the first contact with the Nivkhs on her field trip to meet them in Sakhalin. At that time she met the Ethnomusicologist, Natalia Mamcheva, who introduced her to the legendary Nivkh singer, Tatiana Ulita. During that first encounter, Lygia O’Riordan recorded Tatiana Ulita’s singing. These songs provided me with the vital material for my composition, Nivkh Themes. On that same trip, Lygia O’Riordan travelled to Nogliki to see Nivkh performances first hand and to meet with the Nivkhs themselves. Armed with ancient recordings of Nivkh singing given to her by Natalia Mamcheva, as well as her own recordings, Lygia introduced me to the Nivkh music.

  • Election Observation Delegation to the Parliamentary Elections in Kyrgyzstan (13-16 October 2017)
    ELECTION OBSERVATION DELEGATION TO THE PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS IN KYRGYZSTAN (13-16 OCTOBER 2017) Report by Laima Andrikiene, Head of the Delegation Annexes: Annex A. List of participants, Programme and press statement of the Chair of the EP Delegation. Annex B. IEOM Preliminary Findings and Conclusions Annex C. IEOM Joint Press Statement Introduction On 7 September 2017, the Conference of Presidents (CoP) authorised the sending of an Election Observation Delegation to observe the presidential elections in Kyrgyzstan. This followed an invitation on 26 July 2017 from the Chairman of the Central Election Commission of Kyrgyzstan to the European Parliament. On 29 May 2017, Kyrgyzstan had been included in the list of priorities of the Democracy Support and Election Coordination Group (DEG) for observation of elections in the second half of 2017. The presidential elections represented a significant test of the progress of democratisation in Kyrgyzstan where the government has avoided many of the authoritarian leanings of its neighbours. The European Parliament has historically supported Kyrgyzstan along this democratic path, deploying Election Observations Delegations to the parliamentary and presidential elections in 2005, the parliamentary elections in 2010, the presidential elections in 2011, and the parliamentary elections in 2015. Moreover Kyrgyzstan is a GSP+ beneficiary country, which is conditional on the effective implementation of a number of international conventions. The EP Delegation therefore considered the respect of those conventions that would have an electoral dimension, such as the UN International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The European Parliament Election Observation Delegation was composed of six Members: Ms Laima ANDRIKIENE (EPP, LT), Mr Cristian Dan PREDA (EPP, RO), Ms Ramona Nicole MĂNESCU (EPP, RO), Mr Joachim ZELLER (EPP, DE), Mr Doru-Claudian FRUNZULICĂ (S&D, RO) and Ms Julie WARD (S&D, UK).

  • B Y Bruce Grant
    FO R E W O R D B Y Bruce Grant I N 1889, LE V S H T E R N B E R G , a Russian law student who had been exiled to Sakhalin Island for his participation in an anti-tsarist terrorist organization, met a Gilyak man on the street in the small Sakhalin town of Aleksandrovsk. “I saw a disheveled Gilyak shaman,” he entered in his fieldnotes, “with matted gray hair and a strange cordial smile. Small boys surrounded him, shouting ‘Look at the old shaman, he’ll tell your f o rt u ne !’ ”1 S h t e rn b e rg didn’t know how to respond, but he re m e m b er ed the shaman’s e x p ression as he walked by. So began one of Russia’s most famous ethnographic encounters. From that first meeting, Shternberg went on to produce a corpus of writ- ing on Gilyak life that easily compares to Franz Boas’ “five-foot shelf” on the Kwa- kiutl and Bronislaw Malinowski’s epics from the Trobriands. Like his foreign col- leagues, he has enjoyed the reputation as a famous ancestor for the generations of anthropologists he trained and influenced. Yet, looking back on Shternberg’s work today, what perhaps stands out is not even just what he wrote, but how his work has come to mean so many different things to so many. Shternberg’s Social Organiza - tion of the Gilyak, his most extensive work in English translation, began as a spirit- ed defense of the idea of group marriage first put forth by the American ethnologist Lewis Henry Morgan.
