  • A Spatial Analysis of Unevenness in the Social-Economic Development of Regional Municipal Units
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XX, Issue 2B, 2017 pp. 46-65 A Spatial Analysis of Unevenness in the Social-Economic Development of Regional Municipal Units Svetlana Sergeevna Mikhailova1,2, Nikolay Il’ich Moshkin1, Dashi Dashanimaevich Tsyrenov1, Erzhena Tsyrenovna Sadykova3, Sambrika Dorzho-Nimaevna Dagbaeva3 Abstract This paper examines a methodology for the analysis of the uneven development of specific areas within a region in terms of their social-economic development and economic potential, as well as existing constraints to exploiting this potential. The authors summarize the most critical issues in the social-economic development of municipal units within the Russian Federation and find one of the main causes of those to be the insufficient consideration of the characteristics of specific areas in implementing policy for the development of municipal units. The paper brings forward a system of indicators for assessing the unevenness of the social- economic development of regional municipal units that is designed to generate a comprehensive characterization of the object under study by way of stage-by-stage examination of its components. To investigate differentiation among municipal units in level of social-economic development, the authors employ a method developed by researcher S.A. Aivazyan. Thus, the study’s major approach is grounded in calculating an integral criterion for the population’s quality of life. The authors conduct a cluster analysis of municipal units within the Republic of Buryatia based on key indicators of economic development, which helps gain an insight into the structure of the territorial imbalance in industrial development. The findings of this study may be recommended for use by federal and regional authorities seeking to enhance their management of the development of a municipal unit based on a differentiated approach.

E-mail: [email protected] Historically, Buddhism was incorporated into Russian lands in the early 17th century. Buddhism is considered as one of Russia's traditional religions, legally a part of Russian historical heritage. Besides the historical monastic traditions of Buryatia, Kalmykia and Tuva, Buddhism is now widespread all over Russia, with many ethnic Russian converts. The main form of Buddhism in Russia is the Gelukpa school of Tibetan Buddhism, with other Tibetan schools as minorities. Although Tibetan Buddhism is most often associated with Tibet, it spread into Mongolia, and via Mongolia into Russia. It primarily spread into the Russian constituent regions geographically and/or culturally adjacent to Mongolia, or inhabited by Mongolian ethnic groups: Buryatia, Zabaykalsky Krai, Tuva, and Kalmykia, the latter being the only Buddhist region in Europe, located to the north of the Caucasus. By 1887, there were already 29 publishing houses and numerous datsans. After the Russian Revolution, the datsans were closed down. By the 1930s, Buddhists were suffering more than any other religious community in the Soviet Union with lamas being expelled and accused of being "Japanese spies" and "the people's enemies". After the fall of the Soviet Union, a Buddhist revival began in Kalmykia with the election of President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov.

History of Medicine 5(3): 176–182. https://doi.org/10.3897/hmj.5.3.32479 Abstract The formation of the health care system in Transbaikal after the revolution of 1917–1918 had a number of essential features that will be covered in this paper. In 1919, the organization of medical care in Transbaikal retained its pre-revolutionary structure. In connection with the tense political situation in eastern Russia and the serious danger of a military conflict with Japan, in the spring of 1920, a buffer state was created – the Far Eastern Republic (FER). The FER Ministry of Health was established within the framework of the administrative territorial unit. During this period, the Ministry of Health had to fight epidemics, organize medical and sanitary assistance for the population and provide medical support for the People’s Revolutionary Army. Through- out the FER’s territory, free access to all types of medical care (outpatient, inpatient, sanatorium and dental) was introduced for all working groups of the population.
