(collection Eugenijus Uspuras) Officially the railway line Sankt Peterburg - Wilno - Warsaw started operating on December 15, 1862. Some routes, however, were constructed and used earlier. Postmarks with figures 12, 14, 15 and 16 were introduced for TPOs – Travelling Post Offices- of the St. Peterburg – Warsaw railway in 1861. This is the only letter known bearing Poland No 1 cancelled by Russian “14” in a hexagon of dots.

Date: ……………………………………………………… Name (printed letters): ……………………………………………………… Signature: ……………………………………………………… CEU eTD Collection ii Abstract The existing discourse on leftist movements in post-Soviet countries characterizes them as weak and isolated. This research analyzes the case of Lithuania, which has had parliamentary left parties since the democratic transition. Despite this, a new leftist movement recently began to emerge. Therefore, I answer the question, why has the political opportunity emerged for new leftist political groups despite the presence of the “old” left in the Lithuanian government? I analyze the case on several levels. Macro level analysis is based on European Value Study (EVS) 3rd pre-release of 2017 data, while for mezzo/micro level analysis I conducted 8 interviews with the members of the new leftist movement. The research reveals that a precarious society was formed by the losers of democratic transition and globalization.

  • On the Problem of Assessment of Sustainability in the Sea Shore Region
    ISSN 2029-9370. REGIONAL FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT STUDIES, No. 2 (10) ON THE PROBLEM OF ASSESSMENT OF SUSTAINABILITY IN THE SEA SHORE REGION Kristina ramanausKaitė1, angelija Bučienė2 Klaipėda University (Lithuania) ABSTRACT Definitions and sets of indicators as well as approaches on sustainable development are compiled, discussed and evaluated in this paper. The researched region embraces for five urban and district municipalities in western Lithuania and Latvia in the total area of 1393.93 km2. The scheme of steps of assessment of sustainability with selected sets of indicators relevant for the sea shore region of Lithuania and Latvia is presented and discussed. KEY WORDS: sustainability, assessment, sea shore region. JEL CODES: Q01, Q56. Introduction The sea shore or coastal zone’s importance in the country’s economics is one of the greatest in most of world countries because of high natural and human resources located there (Berkes et al., 2003; Gadal and Lekavičiūtė, 2012; Walter, Stützel, 2009). In the sense of spatial planning, it involves a territory in the sea and on land, the boundaries of which are defined by mutual influences and interests (Pužulis, 2010; Spiriajevas, 2012; Burgis, Čiegis, 2012). According to the research in Finland, about 40 % of Baltic sea shore habitat types are threatened (SH7 Red-listed, 2008). The seashore meadows, seasonally flooded meadows and paludified wet meadows are among the most valuable rural landscapes in the coastal areas. This kind of areas has most certainly decreased lately, due to decreased grazing and hay harvesting, drainage activities, cultivation or increased damp construction with shrinking of agricultural activities. However the tourism, recreation, fishing, sports are increasing and their impact on the environment in these regions increases as well.

  • The Lithuanian Jewish Community of Telšiai
    The Lithuanian Jewish Community of Telšiai By Philip S. Shapiro1 Introduction This work had its genesis in an initiative of the “Alka” Samogitian Museum, which has undertaken projects to recover for Lithuanians the true history of the Jews who lived side-by-side with their ancestors. Several years ago, the Museum received a copy of the 500-plus-page “yizkor” (memorial) book for the Jewish community of Telšiai,2 which was printed in 1984.3 The yizkor book is a collection of facts and personal memories of those who had lived in Telšiai before or at the beginning of the Second World War. Most of the articles are written in Hebrew or Yiddish, but the Museum was determined to unlock the information that the book contained. Without any external prompting, the Museum embarked upon an ambitious project to create a Lithuanian version of The Telshe Book. As part of that project, the Museum organized this conference to discuss The Telshe Book and the Jewish community of Telšiai. This project is of great importance to Lithuania. Since Jews constituted about half of the population of most towns in provincial Lithuania in the 19th Century, a Lithuanian translation of the book will not only give Lithuanian readers a view of Jewish life in Telšiai but also a better knowledge of the town’s history, which is our common heritage. The first part of this article discusses my grandfather, Dov Ber Shapiro, who was born in 1883 in Kamajai, in the Rokiškis region, and attended the Telshe Yeshiva before emigrating in 1903 to the United States, where he was known as “Benjamin” Shapiro.

  • Agricultural Land Use in Farmers' Farms
    AGRICULTURAL LAND USE IN FARMERS’ FARMS Vilma Šalkauskienė Aleksandras Stulginskis University, Lithuania Abstract The article provides the distribution of agricultural land used by farmers’ farms, analyses the declared areas of agricultural land in use and cropland and the amounts of support received. The article also provides the analysis of the change in land used by the farmers’ farms in the period of 2003-2005, and indicates the prevailing specialisation of farms in Kaunas district. According to the analysis results, the number of farmers’ farms had decreased during the analysed period, and land area used by farmers had decreased as well. Even though in 2010 the average farm size increased to 11.19 ha, currently it is only about 7 ha. The majority of farms are from 1 to 10 ha (68.8 percent). In Kaunas district, there prevails combined specialisation of farmers’ farms as crop production might be combined with cattle-breeding, moreover, according to the data of 2015, there are 35 organic farms in the district. In Kaunas district, the areas of declared agricultural land in use and cropland increased by approximately 3.2 percent, however, the number of submitted applications decreased by 12.7 percent. Winter wheat and meadows-pastures (up to 5 years) are mostly declared. Although the grant amount to farmers is decreasing, the support to Kaunas district farmers is constantly increasing. Key words: farmers’ farms, declaration of crops and agricultural land in use, agricultural land Introduction Private landowners (farmers) and private farms utilise the largest part of agricultural land. According to the data of National Land Service on 1 January 2016, they own 82 percent of all agricultural land.

  • Demographic and Social Changes in Suburbs of Klaipėda in 2010–2017
    ISSN 2029-9370. REGIONAL FORMATION AND DEVELOPMENT STUDIES, No. 3 (29) DEMOGRAPHIC AND SOCIAL CHANGES IN SUBURBS OF KLAIPĖDA IN 2010–2017 Daiva verkulevičiūtė-kriukienė1, inga nomeikienė2 Klaipėda University (Lithuania) ABSTRACT Klaipėda is the third largest city in Lithuania, but its population is decreasing, while its suburbs are expanding and growing. This study reveals population migration to Klaipėda suburbs at the level of the smallest administrative unit – elderships. This helps with sufficient precision to identify not only the most attractive suburban residential areas, but also to determine the social-demographic problems faced by the local population. Due to uneven population change and structure, there is already a shortage of educational institutions and educators in some elderships. In the remote elderships from Klaipėda city, the population is rapidly aging, the unemployment rate is relatively higher than in other elderships, and the connection with the Klaipėda city by public transport is insufficient. Proposals for administrations of elderships and district municipalities are formulated taking into account the trends of population change. Comparati- ve analysis, cartographic analysis, document analysis, expert interview method and others were applied in this study. KeyworDs: suburbs, eldership, Klaipėda, demographic and social changes. JeL CoDes: r12, r23, r28.
