John Erickson was born in South Shields, Tyne and Wear, on 17 April 1929, the son of the late Henry Erickson and Jessie, née Heys, in a family with seafaring antecedents, English and Scandinavian, which equipped him for a life devoted to European history, politics and languages, and eventually military affairs. His father, who died in 1981, served with the Royal Navy during the Second World War in wartime convoys, including those to the Soviet Union. His son’s education in South Shields High School may have included an early introduction into European languages during the war years which proved very useful to him in later life. On leav- ing school in 1947 at the age of eighteen he was called up to do National Service, initially in the King’s Own Scottish Borderers, and then in the Intelligence Corps. He was posted to the British Army in Austria, where with the rank of sergeant, he interpreted in Anglo-Soviet military liaison meetings of the Allied Control Commission in Vienna. Later in his serv- ice he was assigned to the Allied War Crimes Tribunal located in Austria, part of whose responsibilities was the search for German and Austrian, as well as Russian, Yugoslav and other Balkan collaborators with the Axis Powers and their arrest and trial on charges of war crimes.

  • Nuclear Education for International Students and Professionals in Russia
    Nuclear Education for International Students and Professionals in Russia Dear friends! Nuclear power today is one of the most important development vectors of the world energy system. It allows not only solving the problem of access to sustainable and highly potent energy source but also serves as a locomotive of the sustainable development, because the use of nuclear technologies inevitably entails the development of the national scientifi c infrastructure, training of high skilled specialists, and development of modern branches of science and applied knowledge. ROSATOM offers its international partners a comprehensive set of services in nuclear, which includes not only construction of a nuclear power plant, its fuel supply throughout Sergey Kirienko, the entire fuel cycle but also the assistance in training of specialists. Director General, The Russian Federation has a vast experience in the export of education, which State Atomic originates from the time of the USSR when thousands of foreign students did their training Energy Corporation in the Soviet higher education establishments. The level and quality of the education we ROSATOM provide are evidenced by the fact that many of graduates of our universities have been able to successfully promote in their countries and now represent national political and intellectual elites. Today in the Russian Federation every opportunity has been created to get educated in nuclear physics at a high quality level. Students from Turkey, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Jordan and other countries where nuclear power plants of Russian design will be built in coming years, are doing their education courses in Russia. The nuclear education system for international students in Russia has been developed with the IAEA’s methodological support.

  • Juris Podnieks and Latvian Documentary Cinema
    FROM THE PERSONAL TO THE PUBLIC: JURIS PODNIEKS AND LATVIAN DOCUMENTARY CINEMA DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Maruta Zane Vitols, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor J. Ronald Green, Adviser Professor Lisa Florman _________________________________ Professor Judith Mayne Adviser History of Art Graduate Program Copyright by Maruta Zane Vitols 2008 ABSTRACT In recent decades and particularly after the collapse of the Soviet Union, cinema scholars have devoted a considerable amount of attention to Eastern European films and filmmakers. Yet, the rich film tradition of the Baltic States, particularly the thriving Latvian national cinema, remains foreign to western cinema scholars. One finds very little written in academia in this subject area, although the rapidly growing economies and the increase of the political currency of the Baltic States have sparked a new awareness of this geographical area. A fresh interest in Latvian filmmakers as the voices of their society is emerging, stemming from the country’s rich cinema history. Within the realm of Latvian documentary filmmaking, one figure from recent years shines as a star of the genre. Juris Podnieks (1950-1992) and his films hold a privileged place in Latvian culture and history. His breakthrough feature Is It Easy to Be Young? (1986) heralded the advent of a new era for Latvian and Soviet documentary filmmaking accompanying the implementation of Gorbachev’s glasnost plan in the Soviet Union. Podnieks took advantage of the new policy of openness and employed Is It Easy to Be Young? as a vehicle for exploring the state of youth culture under a non-democratic regime.

Even though Jiang Jieshi was able to consolidate most of the aviation assets inside China under his command, the Japanese Imperial Army and Navy possessed large numbers of domestically produced aircraft and the well-trained aircrew needed to operate them. While the Chinese Nationalist armies could offset Japanese ground forces with superior numbers and strategic defense-in-depth, the Chinese Air Force was completely unprepared for extended operations against Japanese fighters and bombers. In an effort to close this aviation gap with the Japanese, the Chinese Nationalists employed a wide variety of European and American aviation advisors to improve the effectiveness of the Chinese Air Force.
