Zolotarev Doctor of Economics, Professor O.G. Semenyuta Translator: Emily Justice Dr. Vasily Vysokov Southern Russia Versus the Global Crisis: A Theoretical and Practical Handbook — Rostov-on-Don: Institute of the National Economy, Rostov State Economics University, 2009 — 154 pages. ISBN 978-5-7972-1398-7 This book presents an analysis of the impact of the global financial crisis on the regional economy, taking as its example the Southern Federal District of the Russian Federation. Drawing on a detailed analysis of statistical data, Dr. Vysokov gives an overview of the development of southern Russia in the pre-crisis years of 2004–2008, highlighting the region’s strengths and weaknesses. Statistical indicators for the first half of 2009 show that the region is retaining its advantages during the crisis. Analysing the development of the current global crisis in terms of economic dynamics theory and the laws of money circulation and their influence on supply and demand, the author explains how companies in southern Russia can use the crisis to increase their competitiveness in the post- crisis economy. He also examines in detail the development and implementation of post-crisis development programmes, using Center-Invest Bank as an example. The presence or absence of post- crisis development programmes is the main determinant of success in overcoming crisis conditions. In all spheres of the economy, post-crisis development programmes should be based on best international practice, and the public sector is no exception. In his final chapter, Dr. Vysokov bases his proposals for the post-crisis development of the banking system on principles of sustainable development. This book will be an up-to-date aid for students, teachers, business people and civil servants who wish to study the characteristics of the crisis, monitor statistical indicators by sector and region, and gain an understanding of how to produce a post-crisis development programme and organise a business at regional level during a time of global crisis.

In Russia, people in official circles began talking about the crisis at the end of September 2008; already by early October, Center-Invest Bank had devised a post-crisis development programme for its customers. When company owners and managers learnt about this programme, they showed new-found confidence: “Yes, difficult times lie ahead, no one will be buying haute couture, but everyone will be buying the jeans made by my factory!” “I shouldn’t count on any new boats being built, but they’ll be repairing their old ones in my yard!” “Only 40% of meat packing factories will survive, but those that do will be buying my casing to make their sausages!” Encouraged by this optimism, Center-Invest Bank presented its pro- gramme “Southern Russia Versus the Global Crisis” to its western partners in Frankfurt, Cologne and London. They all reacted with a mixture of unmistakeable interest, envy and hope when they heard of the confidence of the business community of southern Russian. 6 Author’s Foreword I was invited by Bloomberg to speak live on their television show, which for several months had been broadcasting a “thriller” about the global crisis. After my live interview, the company’s journalists gathered in a small room with questions for me and one request ”Please tell us, where exactly is this southern Russia”. To satisfy their interest, and, moreover, the wishes of our customers and partners, we decided to describe in more detail the process of developing and implementing the programme “Southern Russia Versus the Global Crisis”. Using our experience of implementing

  • The Role of Greek Culture Representation in Socio-Economic Development of the Southern Regions of Russia
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XXI, Special Issue 1, 2018 pp. 136 - 147 The Role of Greek Culture Representation in Socio-Economic Development of the Southern Regions of Russia T.V. Evsyukova1, I.G. Barabanova2, O.V. Glukhova3, E.A. Cherednikova4 Abstract: This article researches how the Greek lingvoculture represented in onomasticon of the South of Russia. The South Russian anthroponyms, toponyms and pragmatonyms are considered in this article and how they verbalize the most important values and ideological views. It is proved in the article that the key concepts of the Greek lingvoculture such as: “Peace”, “Faith”, “Love”, “Heroism”, “Knowledge”, “Alphabet”, “Power”, “Charismatic person” and “Craft” are highly concentrated in the onomastic lexis of the researched region. The mentioned above concepts due to their specific pragmatic orientation are represented at different extend. Keywords: Culture, linguoculture, onomastics, concept anthroponym, toponym, pragmatonim. 1D.Sc. in Linguistics, Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation. 2Ph.D. in Linguistics, Associate Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation. 3Lecturer, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation, E-mail: [email protected] 4Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation.

At the slab revealed two interrelated groups of wells, one of which - in the form of a circle, is proposed to interpret how analemmatic sundial, and second group, consisting of disparate wells, as auxiliary astronomical markers of rising luminaries directions, to correct the position of the gnomon. Simultaneous location of both groups of wells on the same slab is a possible indication of one of the stages of development of the design features analemmatic sundial - setting movable gnomon and technology of measuring time with it. It may point to local origin, as the very idea of analemmatic sundial as well technology measurement of time with them. The article also describes the model analemmatic sundial, hour marks which in many cases coincide with the wells arranged in a circle, particularly in a working range from 6 to 18 hours. In the study proposed a method which can identify moments of solstices and equinoxes in ancient times with the help of the gnomon of analemmatic sundial and mobile gnomons, installed in wells belonging to the second group.

  • Assessment of Anthropogenic Pressure on the Environment in Rostov Region
    E3S Web of Conferences 210, 01004 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021001004 ITSE-2020 Assessment of anthropogenic pressure on the environment in Rostov region Alexander Khavanskiy1, Vladimir Latun*,1, Yuliya Merinova1, Anastasiya Ivanchenko1, and Ludmila Nedoseka1 1Southern Federal University, Zorge str., 40, Rostov-on-Don, 344000, Russia Abstract. Improvement of the methodology for determining the anthropogenic pressure on the region's environment, assessment of individual components and the total anthropogenic pressure, analysis of its formation and distribution in Rostov region. The main factors of anthropogenic impact on the environment are divided into four groups and presented in the form of demographic, industrial, agricultural and transport pressure, which, when summed up, give the total anthropogenic pressure. When determining certain types of anthropogenic pressure in the calculations, materials of statistical yearbooks and official data of regional reports on the state of the environment were used. For each type of anthropogenic pressure, indicators of anthropogenic impact and their numerical values were determined. The total anthropogenic pressure was determined by the sum of points. The features of the formation of anthropogenic pressure in Rostov region have been established. In cities with an industrial type of nature management, an increased and average anthropogenic pressure prevails. In rural areas of suburban urbanized zones and the development of mineral raw materials with an agrarian-industrial type of natural resource use, maximum indicators of environmental impact for agrarian areas, increased and average values of industrial, demographic and agricultural pressure have been established. Rural areas with an agrarian type, remote from industrial centers, are characterized by an increased agricultural pressure, lower and low values of the total pressure.
