  • Terror Machine
    1 2 3 4 Preface by Edward Crankshaw the now we know a good deal about the brutalities inflicted by the government of the Soviet Union upon those who incur its displeasure. The independent testimonies of survivors add up to a circumstantial and terrible indictment, so that it may be fairly said that anybody who still denies the evidence is the sort of person who would deny anything-or the sort of person who, to preserve his own illusions, will stop his ears to the cries of the dying and condemned. Where we are less well informed is about the effect of the regime on the great mass of Soviet citizens who have managed to keep out of serious trouble. It is not enough to be told by Soviet refugees what Russia looks like through spectacles acquired in Paris, London, or New York. We want to know what it looked like when they were still in Moscow, Odessa, or Novosibirsk, before they began to dream of escaping to the West, or at least before they knew enough about the West to make comparisons. This is not idle curiosity: it is the only way of getting even a faint idea of how the r6gime appears to those who must still live under it. Major Klimov's book is very helpful in this matter. It is a sober, yet vivid, account of life as lived inside the Soviet bureaucracy seen, as far as it is possible for an outsider to judge, very much as it appeared to the narrator before he decided to break away-as it must therefore appear to countless other intelligent Russians who are engaged at this moment in making the machine work.

I am particularly indebted to the staff of the Home Office Drugs Prevention Advisory Service, particularly Robert Martin Government Office for the North East and Deborah Burns and Karen Kirkbride, for their continuous support, advice and encouragement.

We are also working hard to promote cohesive communities and deal with the issues that cause segregation in communities.

To work with other departments and local government agencies and community groups to regenerate neighbourhoods, to support families; to develop the potential of every individual; to build the confidence and capacity of the whole community to be part of the solution; and to promote good race and community relations, combating prejudice and xenophobia.

  • Recognising a Model of Postmodern Pluralism Through Looking at Islam
    Preliminary communication UDC 28:[221.7+23+24](045)(083.77) doi: 10.21464/sp31216 Received January 27th, 2016 Nevad Kahteran University of Sarajevo, Faculty of Philosophy, Franje Račkog 1, BA–71000 Sarajevo [email protected] Recognising a Model of Postmodern Pluralism through Looking at Islam from the Standpoint of Far Eastern Traditions1 A Dialogue between Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism Abstract Being a Bosnian pioneer in the field of Eastern and comparative philosophy, the author of this essay on understanding is personally dedicated to the cultivation of a new spirit of phi- losophy that cuts across classical borders and opens its understanding of “universality” to a multitude of cultural and intellectual histories. Paving the way for establishing a platform for an Islamic-Hinduist-Buddhist-Confucian dialogue in the Balkans, while simultaneously joining hands with what has already been done in the meantime by other researchers in this field, and exploring Buddhist, Chinese and Islamic studies in the context of the persisting challenges that India, China, and the Islamic world face, he believes that the broadening of philosophical horizons in this regard will be an exciting experience and a cross-cultural exchange taking into account that dialogue between them is more than necessary today – especially when dialogue increases the effectiveness of listening as the basis for symbiotic coexistence. Also, this essay underlines the importance of a relation between the contempo- rary Islamic, Chinese, and Buddhist thought and civilisation, as well as the importance of Islamic works in the language of neo-Confucianism, and the rise of an intellectual current in China called Han Kitab and prominent Chinese-Muslim thinkers such as Liu Zhi, Ma Zhu, Wang Daiyu and others.

  • Theatre at Moscow Hermann Matern School: Performing Tradition, Educational Innovations, Perspectives on Artistic Activities
    PERFORMING ARTS IN THE SCHOOLS E‐ISSN 2237‐2660 Theatre at Moscow Hermann Matern School: performing tradition, educational innovations, perspectives on artistic activities Viktoria VolkovaI IFreie Universität Berlin – Berlin, Germany ABSTRACT – Theatre at Moscow Hermann Matern School: performing tradition, educational innovations, perspectives on artistic activities – The article describes the more than 45 years of history of theatrical tradition at Moscow Hermann Matern School as well as the transformation of this tradition into an educational innovation in the 1990s. An annual competition in theatrical performance called Theatre Week for Children has been held since the late 1970s for students from grades 1 to 11. However, since the mid-90s, some new educational forms based on this theatrical tradition have been introduced as an experiment in teaching humanities at this school. Alongside traditional educational forms, students have been encouraged to stage the elected material, mostly in the subjects of literature and foreign languages (German, English), but also in history. Keywords: Theatrical Tradition. Educational Innovation. Staging in Foreign Languages. Russian Literature. School Communities. RÉSUMÉ – Théâtre à l’École Hermann Matern de Moscou: tradition, innovations pédagogiques, perspectives sur les activités artistiques – L’article décrit les plus de 45 ans d’histoire de la tradition théâtrale à l’école Hermann Matern de Moscou ainsi que la transformation de cette tradition en une innovation éducative dans les années 1990. Un concours annuel de représentation théâtrale appelé Semaine Du Théâtre Pour Les Enfants a été organisé depuis la fin des années 1970 pour les élèves de la première à la onzième année. Cependant, depuis le milieu des années 90, de nouvelles formes éducatives basées sur cette tradition théâtrale ont été introduites comme une expérience d’enseignement des sciences humaines dans cette école.

This year also the Sikh community will perform their religious rites during the festival, while observing social distancing, and adhering to COVID 19 SOPs. The main events/congregations of the celebrations will be held at the shrines of Panja Sahib and Nankana Sahib.
