Makarenko, Romenska st., 87, Sumy, 40002, Ukraine INDUSTRIAL TOURISM IN SUMY REGION: RESOURCES AND PERSPECTIVES The essence of industrial tourism as well as the volume of terms “production tourism” and “industrial tourism” are consid- ered. The regional features of the clustering process of the tourism services market are studies and the ways of its intensification are demonstrated. The sectoral and territorial structure of the industrial tourism in the Sumy region is characterized. In the context of industrial tourism, the Sumy region is a diversified complex that combines large-sized and medium-sized industrial enterprises which are specialized in extraction of energy resources, the development of machinery, the chemical and petrochemical industry, and the processing of agricultural products. Taking into account the geographical peculiarities, six industrial tourism clusters (ITCs) are se- lected in the area of the Sumy region, i.e. territorial combinations of industrial, agricultural, transport or service enterprises that have a tourist attraction and conduct excursions to their production sites.

  • Tetiana Yevsieieva the Activities of Ukraine's Union of Militant Atheists
    Tetiana Yevsieieva The Activities of Ukraine’s Union of Militant Atheists during the Period of All-Out Collectivization, 1929–1933 The joint actions of the Communist Party leadership and local party organizations, trade unions, village councils, branches of the Committee of Poor Peasants, and organs of the State Political Administration (GPU—secret police) directed toward implementing all-out collectivization were unable to gain the support of the preponderant majority of Ukraine’s rural residents. It became necessary to devise another way of organizing the peasants that would allow the Soviet government to establish effective control over them. However, the experience of creating non- party peasant conferences in the 1920s had demonstrated convincingly the danger posed to the Soviet regime by the very existence of peasant associations, however varied in character. They inevitably turned into organizations that could compete successfully with the Russian Communist Party (Bolshevik).1 The Ukrainian historian Oksana Hanzha maintains that during the period in question the Bolsheviks still held the reins of power only because there were no other political organizations in the countryside empowered to legally manage affairs in rural areas. The Bolsheviks’ fear of losing control over rural regions was so great that they outlawed even the creation of poor peasant fractions at party conferences because the party’s Central Committee was convinced that they might turn into nuclei of peasant unions.2 Thus, assistance in accelerating the pace of

Ukraine, Belarus & Bessarabia) By Henry L. deZeng IV Kharkov-Rogan I Photo credit: U.S. National Archives, Photographic and Cartographic Division.; taken 14 Sept. 1941. Kharkov-Rogan I was built in 1930 for use as a military flight school. It had 8 medium and large aircraft hangars and 1 very large repair hangar, approx. 40 permanent barrack buildings, 3 workshops, admin buildings and storage structures, an oval athletic track and other facilities all grouped along the W boundary and SW corner of the landing area. There were about 10 additional structures along the S boundary that may have been for aircraft servicing and stores. Additionally, there were 22 blast bays for twin-engine and single-engine aircraft spaced along the W and S boundaries of the landing area. A separate supply dump with its own rail spur was approx. 1 km S of the airfield. Nearly all of these buildings had been destroyed or badly damaged by 1944, the majority of them blown up by the retreating Germans. Edition: February 2020 Airfields Russia (incl.
