As you can imagine, such a large country faces equally large challenges. In 1991 Russia emerged from the Soviet Union as an independent country.

Our nation has never been more divided, more war- stricken, more fearful of the future. Yet, the promise and the greatness of Russia remains undaunted. The Russian Provisional Government can and will overcome these challenges and lead our Motherland into the dawn of a new day. Out of character. To introduce myself, I’m a fourth-year Economics and History double major, currently writing a BA thesis on World War II rationing in the United States. I compete on UChicago’s travel team and I additionally am a CD for our college conference. Besides that, I am the VP of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, previously a member of an all-men a cappella group and a proud procrastinator. This letter, for example, is about a month late. We decided to run this committee for a multitude of reasons, but I personally think that Russian in 1917 represents such a critical point in history. In an unlikely way, the most autocratic regime on Earth became replaced with a socialist state. The story of this dramatic shift in government and ideology represents, to me, one of the most interesting parts of history: that sometimes facts can be stranger than fiction.

Most of the provided evidence will be related to Belarus; however, it also applies to Ukraine, the country that has had much in common with Belarus in its historical and cultural inheritance since the 9th and 10th centuries.

According to their constitutions, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are democracies. In actuality, however, there is little evidence to support that these are democratic systems. These states’ post-Soviet constitutions outline them as democracies – yet they lack a free press; freedom of association is suppressed; religious freedom is limited; and free speech is constrained as well. While these two countries hold popular elections, much of their electoral processes are under the control of the executive branch of government - calling into question whether or not Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan really hold “fair and competitive” elections.

  • Number and Distribution of Gyrfalcons on the West Siberian Plain. Pages 267–272 in R
    NUMBER AND DISTRIBUTION OF GYRFALCONS ON THE WEST SIBERIAN PLAIN IRINA POKROVSKAYA AND GRIGORY TERTITSKI Institute of Geography, Russian Academy of Sciences, 29 Staromonetny per., Moscow, 119017, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT.—Using our own observations and published records, we discuss the breeding range, number, and distribution of Gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolus) on the West Siberian plain. We show that the currently accepted assessment of Gyrfalcon numbers appears to be underestimated. The southern limit of the species’ breeding range should be defined south of forest-tundra. With the predicted northward expansion of forest due to climate change, West Siberian and neighboring Gyrfalcons of subspecies F. r. intermedius appear preadapted to such habitat and may be favored by its expansion. These considerations call for increased efforts to survey the region for the pres- ence of nesting Gyrfalcons. Received 22 March 2011, accepted 23 May 2011. POKROVSKAYA, I., AND G. TERTITSKI. 2011.

  • Eurosphere Or Anglosphere? Canadian Public Opinion on Brexit and the Future of Transatlantic Relations
    Canadian Journal of Political Science (2021), 1–22 doi:10.1017/S0008423921000470 RESEARCH ARTICLE/ÉTUDE ORIGINALE Eurosphere or Anglosphere? Canadian Public Opinion on Brexit and the Future of Transatlantic Relations Achim Hurrelmann1* , Frédéric Mérand2 and Stephen E. White1 1Carleton University, Department of Political Science, 1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, ON K1S 5B6 and 2Université de Montréal, Département de science politique, 3150, rue Jean-Brillant, Montréal, QC H3T 1N8 *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract Close relations with Europe, especially but not only with the United Kingdom, have long been a consensual tenet of Canadian foreign policy, which has supported European inte- gration since the 1970s. The UK’s withdrawal from the European Union threatens to upset this consensus. While Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has consistently cast Brexit in a negative light, Conservative leaders Andrew Scheer and Erin O’Toole have commented positively on the UK’s leaving the EU. Did their polarized views resonate in the popula- tion? To answer this question, this article analyzes the results of an original survey of vot- ing-age Canadians. Findings show a strong degree of correspondence between positions expressed in party discourse and preferences in the Canadian population. This raises the possibility that the difference between two models of transatlantic relations, which we call Eurosphere and Anglosphere, could emerge as a new fault line in Canadian foreign policy. Résumé Maintenir des relations étroites avec l’Europe, en particulier mais pas seulement avec le Royaume-Uni, constitue un principe consensuel de la politique étrangère canadienne, qui soutient l’intégration européenne depuis les années 1970.

    Iulian Boldea, Dumitru-Mircea Buda, Cornel Sigmirean (Editors) MEDIATING GLOBALIZATION: Identities in Dialogue Arhipelag XXI Press, 2018 EVE BETWEEN TWO WORLDS Anca B ădulescu Lecturer, Phd, ”Transilvania” University of Bra șov Abstract:This paper intends to pinpoint major issues in Elif Shafak’s “ Three Daughters of Eve”: the rising tension between strict Muslim faith and strict skepticism, the precarious state of Turkish politics as opposed to a seemingly liberal Western mentality, the changing position of women in Islam but also the sexual ambiguities of college life. Moreover, the paper aims at demonstrating that “the Sinner, the Believer and the Confused” are the different selves of the protagonist of the novel. At the same time, the author seems to signal a major clash between the two civilizations which, ultimately, cannot be reconciled. Keywords: faith, doubt, Muslim, skepticism, confusion When asked why she was writing her novels in English when Turkish was her native tongue, Elif Shafak answered that she believed it was “an irrational choice, if it was a choice at all.” Also, trying to find a logical explanation, she thinks that she has “escaped into this new continent.” Elif Shafak was born in France where her father was studying, lived for a while in Spain and the United States. She currently “commutes” between London and Istanbul: “I sent myself into perpetual exile, carving an additional zone of existence, building a new home, brick by brick, in this other land.” And this other land is not necessarily Britain, but the English language which has fascinated her ever since she started learning this language, at the age of ten.
