BOLTENKOVA Doctor of Sciences (law), Professor at the Institute of public administration and management, Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration Moscow, Russia Е.I. RYABOVA Candidate of Sciences, Assistant Professor at the Academy of Labour and Social Relations in the city Sevastopol, Sevastopol, Russia TERRITORY OF THE RUSSIAN PRINCIPALITIES IN THE IX-XII CENTURIES AND THE TODAY IMPORTANCE OF THIS ISSUE On the basis of historical sources and scientific literature the article describes the territory of Russian principalities in the IX-XII centuries (the Old Russian state.) It is shown that in the IX-XII centuries Ukraine as a state did not exist and the Moscow Principality gained strength and became the spiritual and political center of Russia. As the center of Russia, Moscow then provided all assistance to those who formed the Ukrainian state. The part of the Ukrainian political elite is acting counter-historically when it denies the Russianness of their territorial roots. Key words: state, Russianness, statehood, law, history, politics. It is historically incorrect to assert, as it often happens, that the Kiev princes in the IX-X centuries collected Russian lands. Russ came from the North-West in small numbers. They formed the military and political elite first in Novgorod, then in Kiev. Other lands lived “on their own” and they were not Russians. For example, the land of the Drevlyans, the land of the Nords, the land of the Vyat- ichi, the land of Krivichi, the land of Radimichi, etc. There were princes every- where. Russian princes from Kiev had to fight for power in other lands. Having established their power in one way or another, they declared such land Russian. That is, when discussing that period, we are not talking about uni- fication of Russian lands, but about the spread of Russian power territorially. In the West, the spread of that power was stopped by poles and other West Slavic and non-Slavic tribes (nationalities). Moreover, they were ready to establish their own power in Kiev. So, naturally, the indigineous tribes made their choice in fa- vour of the Eastern vector of development. That choice was

Based on the countries’ responses to the datasheets 1 and data available from other sources, only a very limited number of watercourses have been dealt with so far as shown in the table below. The other watercourses will be included in the updated version to be submitted to the sixth Ministerial Conference “Environment for Europe” (Belgrade, October 2007).

  • Life Histories of Etnos Theory in Russia and Beyond
    A Life Histories of Etnos Theory NDERSON in Russia and Beyond , A , Edited by David G. Anderson, Dmitry V. Arzyutov RZYUTOV and Sergei S. Alymov The idea of etnos came into being over a hundred years ago as a way of understanding the collecti ve identi ti es of people with a common language and shared traditi ons. In AND the twenti eth century, the concept came to be associated with Soviet state-building, and it fell sharply out of favour. Yet outside the academy, etnos-style arguments not A only persist, but are a vibrant part of regional anthropological traditi ons. LYMOV Life Histories of Etnos Theory in Russia and Beyond makes a powerful argument for etnos reconsidering the importance of in our understanding of ethnicity and nati onal ( identi ty across Eurasia. The collecti on brings to life a rich archive of previously EDS unpublished lett ers, fi eldnotes, and photographic collecti ons of the theory’s early proponents. Using contemporary fi eldwork and case studies, the volume shows .) Life Histories of Etnos Theory how the ideas of these ethnographers conti nue to impact and shape identi ti es in various regional theatres from Ukraine to the Russian North to the Manchurian Life Histories of steppes of what is now China. Through writi ng a life history of these collecti vist in Russia and Beyond concepts, the contributors to this volume unveil a world where the assumpti ons of liberal individualism do not hold. In doing so, they demonstrate how noti ons of belonging are not fl eeti ng but persistent, multi -generati onal, and bio-social.

His works, written in the second part of the nineteenth century at a time of cultural rebirth among many Slav nations, represent a signal contribution to the problem of relations between the Slavs and especially between the Ukrainians and their neighbors in a com­ munity of free and independent nations. The problems which Drahomanov faced in his own day still await solution today. Perhaps a constructive approach may be gained through the study of a man who, like many Ukrainian scholars today, had to leave his native Ukraine and yet came to see more clearly her place in Europe.

Staromonetny 29, Moscow, 119017, Russia 2 Instituto de Geología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, México * [email protected] Abstract The Alexandrovsky quarry exposure (near Kursk, central European Russia) represents one of the most complete and detailed records of paleosols, colluvial sediments and loess for the last glacial-interglacial cycle in Eastern Europe. The buried toposequence of Mikulino (Eemian) paleosols, developed on a gully slope cut in the Dnepr (Riss) loess and overlain by Early Valdai (Würmian) colluvium, was subjected to detailed morphological study. The paleosol on the upper slope is an Albeluvisol that contrasts from the Holocene Cherno- zem. Analysis of thin sections of the Albeluvisol demonstrated that elluvial features – concentrations of bleached silt in the pores and in the groundmass – dominate not only in E and EB but also in the Bt1 horizon. They also penetrate into lower Bt2 and Bt3 horizons where they combine with illuvial clay pedofeatures. The paleosol profile at the bottom of the gully shows synsedimentary development with several A, AE and E horizons reflecting several phases of geomorphic activity as a response to a complex environmental history during the last interglacial.

  • Introduction
    Cambridge University Press 0521824427 - The Dynasty of Chernigov, 1146-1246 Martin Dimnik Excerpt More information Introduction historiography The history of the dynasty’s first hundred years appeared in 1994 as The Dynasty of Chernigov 1054–1146. It began with the year in which Svyatoslav Yaroslavich became the autonomous prince of Chernigov and ended with the year in which his grandson Vsevolod Olgovich died as prince of Kiev. The present volume continues with the succession of Vsevolod’s brother Igor to Kiev and ends with the year 1246, when Vsevolod’s great-grandson Mikhail Vsevolodovich died as the last autonomous senior prince of the dynasty. Although his career was investigated in the monograph Mikhail, Prince of Chernigov and Grand prince of Kiev, 1224–1246 (Toronto, 1981), it merits a re-examination because of the new studies that have appeared over the past twenty years. In this work Mikhail’s career will also be looked at chronologically rather than thematically and his achievements will be evaluated in the light of those of his ancestors. The reasons for writing a new history of the dynasty were discussed in the earlier study, but it will be useful to review them. As it was pointed out, the first written source of Rus to mention Chernigov is “The Tale of Bygone Years,” also known as the “Primary Chronicle.”1 It reports the origin of the dynasty under Svyatoslav Yaroslavich and tells of his activities and those of his sons up to 1117, the year in which it ends. After that a number of Svyatoslav’s descendants kept chronicles at their courts, but none of them has survived.
