In 2008, the Russian Federation signed the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which was then ratified pursuant to Federal Act No. 36-FZ of 3 May 2012 and entered into force for the Russian Federation on 25 October 2012. The decision to become a party to the Convention is fully in keeping with article 7 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, which provides for State support to persons with disabilities (as well as other categories of person), the development of a system of social services and the establishment of State pensions, benefits and other social security guarantees. Given the Convention’s status as an international treaty, its provisions are binding, including in cases where they do not coincide with national legislation (Constitution, art. 15 (4)). 2. The Federal Act on Social Protection for Persons with Disabilities (hereinafter the “Social Protection for Persons with Disabilities Act”), adopted in 1995, drew on the country’s previous positive experience of social protection and on the provisions of a number of international instruments (the Declaration on the Rights of Disabled Persons, adopted by the General Assembly in its resolution 3447 of 9 December 1975, the Standard Rules on the Equalization of Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities, adopted by the General Assembly in its resolution 48/96 of 20 December 1993, and others) and paved the way for the transition from an occupational health model of disability to a medical and social model of this evolving concept. As a result of the alignment of the concept of “disability” with international standards and the impact of other factors contributing to the incidence of disability, the number of persons with disabilities in the Russian Federation rose from 4.7 million in 1993 to 13.2 million in 2013. The share of persons with disabilities in the population increased commensurately, from 3.2 per cent to 9.2 per cent (details on the indicators used to measure the observance of the rights of persons with disabilities as set out in the Convention are provided in annex 1). 3. At the same time, a system of legal standards compliant with international law started to be introduced, covering: pension provision; social assistance for persons with disabilities at the federal, regional and municipal levels; help with job placement; medical and social assessment and rehabilitation; insurance payments for injuries at work and occupational diseases; pension top-ups and compensation payments; the free provision of equipment for rehabilitation (including prosthetics) to persons with disabilities; the development of a rehabilitation sector; and the creation of a barrier-free environment. 4. Nevertheless, an analysis of the approach towards persons with disabilities from the standpoint of the Convention revealed that some sectoral laws lacked actual legal mechanisms regulating action by the authorities to prevent disability-based discrimination, while targeted measures to help and assist persons with disabilities to overcome barriers, including support during rehabilitation and habilitation, were not formulated clearly enough. 5. In this regard, in the period 2011-2013, 12 legislative acts were passed in order to give effect to different provisions of the Convention (annex 2) in preparation for the instrument’s ratification and as part of subsequent efforts to implement it. In particular, laws were adopted to: provide additional modalities for the exercise of the right to vote by persons with disabilities; enhance rehabilitation arrangements in social service institutions; establish a system of compensation payments for harm caused to the health of persons disabled as a result of war; define the special features of educational provision for persons with disabilities; introduce standards regarding the equipment requirements of special posts for persons with disabilities; enhance the mechanism for setting quotas for such posts; improve the accessibility of air transport for persons with disabilities; broaden the use of Russian Sign Language; increase funding for expenses related to keeping guide dogs; boost 4 GE.15-03875 CRPD/C/RUS/1 support for civil society organizations of persons with disabilities; and make cash transactions more accessible for persons with visual impairments. 6. In addition, during the period 2011-2013, new basic federal laws were adopted on education and social services, taking into account provisions of the Convention. 7. Nevertheless, the application of these standards demonstrated that it was not possible to address the existing systemic failures in the legal regulation of issues concerning the creation of a barrier-free environment and the elimination of disability-based discrimination by means of individual laws. It became obvious that interconnected amendments were needed to a whole range of laws. To that end, a federal bill was drafted to introduce amendments to various pieces of

  • Self-Quotations As Reinterpretation of the Past in the Russian Rock Band DDT
    Self-quotations as reinterpretation of the past in the Russian rock band DDT Sergio Mazzanti University of Macerata [email protected] Abstract This article discusses the use of lyrical, musical and visual self-quotations in the works of DDT, one of the most important Russian rock bands. After the collapse of the USSR, the legacy of the Soviet rock movement has been the object of a nostalgic approach, both by its protagonists as individuals and by the society as a whole. Supported by different methodological approaches (Genette 1997; Yurchak 2003, 2005; Boym 2001; Chion 2016;, Veselovsky 2006), the author examines how Yury Shevchuk, DDT’s leader, uses self-quotation as an artistic tool to re-interpret the past: his own past, and at the same time the past of the country. Self-quotations can also act as a kind of dialogue between the author and society, helping us to understand the role of intertextuality in popular music, and to position it in the cultural field between the individual and the social. KEYWORDS: Russian popular music, palimpsest, nostalgia, self-quotations, appropriation, definition of popular music. Preface The collapse of the USSR in 1991 brought enormous and sudden changes in all spheres of Russian society. It is not easy to give an objective historical reconstruction of Soviet society, even if (or because) relatively little time has passed since its collapse. Especially after significant historical upheavals, people tend to reinterpret the past from the point of view of the present, often without noticing that they are doing so. Alexei Yurchak has shown how representations of the Soviet Union have quite quickly changed in the minds of the Russian people.

  • Broadcasting Board of Governors Fiscal Year 2008 Budget Request
    Broadcasting Board of Governors Fiscal Year 2008 Budget Request Executive Summary Broadcasting Board of Governors FY 2008 Budget Request $668.2 million Our national security strategy is founded upon two pillars: The first pillar is promoting freedom, justice, and human dignity – working to end tyranny, to promote effective democracies…Peace and international stability are most reliably built on a foundation of freedom. The second pillar of our strategy is confronting the challenges of our time by leading a growing community of democracies…history has shown that only when we do our part will others do theirs. America must continue to lead. George W. Bush March 16, 2006 The Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) provides critical support to the two pillars of the U.S. national security strategy through its non-military international broadcasting services. A free press, open exchange of ideas, and equal access to critical information are vital underpinnings of any democratic society. The BBG broadcast services promote freedom, justice, human dignity, and support the open environments in which democracies thrive. To achieve BBG’s strategic plan, its broadcast services strive to broadcast quality programming and reach mass audiences in strategic areas. The BBG language services also serve as an example of a free and professional press; focus on nations key to the war on terror and where freedom and democracy are threatened; gain audience trust as a source of news; communicate what America stands for; counter global extremism; foster respect for human rights; support popular aspirations for freedom in repressive societies; strengthen civil society, rule of law, and transparency; stem religious and ethnic intolerance; and combat hate media.

  • ROCK in the EAST - Expectations Towards a Finnish Rock Festival in the Russian Context
    NORTH KARELIA UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES Degree Programme in International Business Tanja Heiskanen (0601022, [email protected]) Jonna Puhkala (0800761, [email protected]) ROCK IN THE EAST - Expectations Towards a Finnish Rock Festival in the Russian Context Thesis May, 2012 THESIS May 2012 Degree Programme in International Business Sirkkalantie 12 A FIN 80110 JOENSUU FINLAND Tel. 358-13-260 600 Authors Tanja Heiskanen, Jonna Puhkala Title Rock in the East – Expectations Towards a Finnish Rock Festival in the Russian Context Commissioned by Joensuu Pop Musicians’ Association Abstract Competition amongst rock festivals in Finland is a notable pushing factor towards seeking growth from international festival-goers. In a country the size of Finland, festival organizers are bound to compete for the same audience, and thus increasing the amount of international visitors may fill this gap. Currently, the share of festival-goers from abroad totals only 5%. Joensuu Pop Musicians’ Association, which organizes Ilosaarirock, are increasingly interested in the benefits that internationalizing the customer base generates. The close proximity of Russia and St. Petersburg create a potential market area for Ilosaarirock. This study explores the perceived expectations of potential festival-goers in the Russian context. The primary purpose of this study was to adduce the image Russians have concerning Finnish rock festivals and furthermore compare the differences in behavior between Finnish and Russian festival-goers. The secondary motive was to determine how the research results could be incorporated into the marketing activities of Ilosaarirock. The empirical part of this study was conducted by both qualitative and quantitative research methods.
