Conference Concept “Multiple States: Experience and Development Prospects Conference concept “Multiple states: experience and development prospects" The composite states of antiquity, being a deviation from simple unitarism, in subsequent historical epochs multiplied in their number and typological diversity. Empires, city unions, confederations ... With the beginning of modernization processes at the turn of the XVIII–XIX centuries. the first federated states emerge that more carefully, with due regard for public consent (including elites and ordinary citizens), distribute powers between levels of government. During the end of the XVIII–XXI centuries. new and new models of federalism are being formed, both more and less centralized. At the same time, at the present moment, the processes of globalization and increasing international turbulence are stimulating the search for other variants of territorial administration, with complex schemes of division of responsibility. These are regionalist states as a kind of compromise between federalism and unitarism, on the one hand, and interstate integration associations – a modern type of confederative, multi-constituent union. All this diversity of complex state and quasi-state entities is to be studied by state scholars, lawyers, political scientists, historians, and it is this scientific conference on May 29–30 that can serve as a springboard for even deeper interdisciplinary analysis in the future. The conference is attended by 130 speakers (102 reports) from universities in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Irkutsk, Barnaul, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-on-Don, Saransk, Saratov, Tambov, Sheki (Republic of Azerbaijan), Penza.

  • U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom September 16, 2020 Written Testimony by Ambassador (Ret.) John E. Herbst
    U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom September 16, 2020 Written Testimony by Ambassador (Ret.) John E. Herbst Director of the Eurasia Center at the Atlantic Council Russian Religious Policy and its Impact in Ukraine Chairwoman Manchin, Vice Chairman Perkins, Vice Chairwoman Bhargava, and Honorable Commissioners, thank you for the opportunity to speak to you at the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. It is an honor. I will testify today on Russian religious policy and its impact in Ukraine. This is an important and multi-faceted topic that will be addressed in the following way: I will very briefly describe key patterns of Russian state policy towards religion and the use of that policy in Ukraine. A good part of this testimony has to do with policy toward Islamic groups in Russia, Crimea and Ukraine. But part also has to do with the critical tie of the Russian state to Eastern Orthodoxy through the Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church and its use of Orthodoxy both to bolster legitimacy at home and to spread influence abroad. Regarding both Islam and Eastern Orthodoxy, the policy is a geopolitical factor of prime importance. Russia has a rich religious heritage and a long history of religious statecraft. Eastern Orthodox Christianity has been closely associated with, first Kyivan Rus and then the emerging Russian state in Moscow since the baptism of Prince Volodomyr (Vladimir in Russian) in 988AD. Since its establishment in 1589, the Moscow Patriarchate has been the largest and wealthiest institution in the Orthodox World. Though abolished twice, by Peter the Great in the early 18th century and the Bolsheviks two centuries later, it regained an influential position within world Orthodoxy when reestablished by Stalin to buck up the Slavic peoples of the Soviet Union during World War II.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. See R. D. Markwick (2002), ‘Stalinism at War’, Kritika: Explorations in Russian and Eurasian History, 3 (3), 509–20; M. David- Fox et al. (2003), eds., The Resistance Debate in Russian and Soviet History, Kritika Historical Studies 1 (Bloomington, Indiana). 2. R. Thurston (1996), Life and Terror in Stalin’s Russia, 1934–1941 (New Haven), Chapter 7. For a critique that suggests passing this ‘acid test’ equals ‘pro-Stalinism’ see R. R. Reese (2007), ‘Motivations to Serve: The Soviet Soldier in the Second World War’, The Journal of Slavic Military Studies, 20 (2), 236–82, esp. 265. More recently, Reese has rightly argued that the mass Red Army surrenders in the first months of the war do not necessarily equate to anti- Stalinism any more than the very willingness to fight on against the odds equalled support for Stalinism. He rightly argues too that there was a multiplicity of reasons, from the political- patriotic to the personal, for soldiers fighting. R. R. Reese (2011), Why Stalin’s Soldiers Fought. The Red Army’s Military Effectiveness in World War II (Lawrence, Kansas), esp. pp. 11–4; 311–2. But in our opinion, posing the question of sustained military resistance in terms of pro or anti- Stalinism misses a fundamental factor: it was the vast socio- economic transformations imposed by Stalin – industrialization, urbanization, education – under the banner of patriotic socialism, that injected a particularly potent, popular, wartime identification with the Motherland and the Soviet state that protected it. 3. A challenge ably taken up in C. Merridale (2005), Ivan’s War: the Red Army, 1939–1945 (London).

  • Building Belonging in Muslim Moscow: Identity and Group Practices in the Post-Soviet Capital
    Building Belonging in Muslim Moscow: Identity and Group Practices in the Post-Soviet Capital Charles Aprile Honors Thesis Submitted to the Department of Sociology and Anthropology in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Bachelor of the Arts Thesis Advisor: Dr. Maya Nadkarni Swarthmore College ABSTRACT Due to the scale of migration that took place after 1991, Moscow is both an ideal and unique space in studies of race, ethnicity and group identity in the of Post-Soviet sphere. Moscow is unique in its history as the center of the multinational Soviet nation-state, as well as its renewed social and economic centrality to much of the former Soviet Union today. The city's layered and contradictory spaces bear testament to how the changing power relations of post-socialist transition affect the embeddedness of group identity in the city's daily life. Due to this layered past, Moscow has a pronounced lack of ethnic or racial residential segregation. This reality necessitates novel frameworks to explain how social belonging and exclusion are spatially inscribed into Moscow's urban fabric. This study uses historical context and ethnographic, interview and participant-observation among Muslim migrants to understand the mechanisms that reproduce, reify, complicate, and splinter Muslim group identities in the Russian capital. In "migrant markets," the findings of this research indicate how Muslims use the spaces to engage in workplace practices that serve to validate their varied cultural, collective and individual identities. At the same time, the stratified occupational structures in markets serve to reify Russian stereotypes against migrants and categorize them as "other." In observing religious activity in Moscow, this study found a serious disconnect between government-approved religious leaders and their supposed constituencies.
