    Dr. Alexei Nallmov Moscow Slate University Russia Russia and the Seas: Economic-Geographic Essay with Special Reference to Eastern Seas Discovery, Perception, and Use As far as I am informed, the ongm of geographical names of different seas washing Russian shores already has been surveyed during one of the previous seminars. To my opinion, the toponimic (or pelagonomic) survey of this kind can be completed and amplified with the review of political reasons and economic-geographic circumstances of Russian expansion to Ihe seas during different periods of its history. Also the contemporary evaluation of economic potential of Russian sea-shore regions likewise the country strategy respect nearby seas and the World Ocean in general must be taken in mind for purposes of the present seminar devoted to Ihe East Sea! Sea of Japan. As Russian history shows, geographical discoveries and, in certain degree, origins of geographical names are strongly tied with development of the "inner" geography of Ihe country itself. Re-orientation of Russia in the surrounding space and evolution of geopolitical ideas were often determined by changes in regional proportions inside its territory. Since its ancient history Russia grew as a continental country. Maritime fringes of Russian plain (East-European plain) seemed hostile to each of consequently replaced national cores: Kievan Rus, Vladimir­ Suzdal' Kniazestvo (kingdom) and the Muscovy.'

  • A Digital Eye on Today: for a Smarter, Safer and More Secure Tomorrow Northern Europe Case Studies Book
    A Digital Eye on Today: for a smarter, safer and more secure tomorrow Northern Europe Case Studies Book 1 2 A Digital Eye on Today: for a smarter, safer and more secure tomorrow Northern Europe Case Studies Book 3 4 I joined Axis Communication UK in 1997 when we had a single network camera and the concept of IP-based, digital surveillance was still in its infancy. “Nursery Cam” and “Pet Cam” were two initial use cases that caught the imagination and remote monitoring over a phone line while painfully slow, was still a business driver for adoption. Fast forward 16 years and Axis have the broadest range of IP video products on the market, an installation base that spans every industry segment and customers can now enjoy a far better remote monitoring experience from a mobile phone. During those 16 years, I have been privileged to work for a company that has pioneered innovation in surveillance cameras, challenged conventional thinking on how we access video surveillance and the applications it’s used for, while all along maintaining a steadfast commitment to education and raising market awareness of the benefits of IP video. As a result, Axis now hold the position as market leader in surveillance cameras, which is quite some feat as we compete with manufacturers who sell both IP and analogue cameras. Our network of passionate and proficient partners have installed Axis IP A big thank to you to all the true experts – our integrator, cameras and video encoders in every market segment imaginable across distribution, hardware and software partners – who made these Northern Europe.

  • Two Truths About Finnmark Architecture – from Norwegian Utilitarianism to Saami Mobility and Love for Nature
    DOI: 10.23817/2020.defarch.1-3 EWA CISEK ORCID: 0000-0002-7613-6612 Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland TWO TRUTHS ABOUT FINNMARK ARCHITECTURE – FROM NORWEGIAN UTILITARIANISM TO SAAMI MOBILITY AND LOVE FOR NATURE DWIE PRAWDY ARCHITEKTURY FINNMARKU – OD NORWESKIEJ UTYLITARNOŚCI DO SAAMSKIEJ MOBILNOŚCI I UMIŁOWANIA NATURY. Abstract The subject of the study is contemporary architecture of Finnmark, the northernmost region of Norway, where influences of two cultures, i.e. Norwegian and Sami clash. The purpose of the research is to show that both the internal truth of a work, resulting from a deep connection of the Saami culture with nature and their mobile lifestyle and the other truth – the truth of time, resulting from the utilitarian nature and simplicity of the preferred forms of Norwegians, which constitute a response to the difficult coexistence with natural elements as well as with dark circumstances that occurred in the past of this region, lie at the root of architecture of this region. They are complemented by the truth of art – cosmological and animalistic motifs reflecting the order of nature and own truths of authors of works which emphasize spectacular landscapes and phenomena of a place. Sometimes the fusion and intercultural transfer result in surprising as well as unique spatial solutions. Keywords: Norwegian architecture, architecture of the Norwegian Saami people, architecture of Finnmark Streszczenie Przedmiotem opracowania jest współczesna architektura Finnmarku, najbardziej na północ wysuniętego regionu Norwegii, gdzie ścierają się wpływy dwóch kultur: norweskiej i saamskiej. Celem badań jest wskazanie, że u źródeł architektury tego regionu leży zarówno prawda wewnętrzna dzieła, wypływa- jąca z głębokiego związku kultury Saamów z naturą i ich mobilnym trybem życia, jak i druga prawda – prawda czasu, wynikająca z utylitarności oraz prostoty form preferowanych przez Norwegów, będą- cych odpowiedzią na niełatwą koegzystencję z naturalnymi żywiołami i mrocznymi okolicznościami zaistniałymi w przeszłości tego regionu.
