Only in this way we will be able to facilitate the homogeneous boxing culture , management, promotion and also uniform vision and evaluation of the bouts. • Training must be considered as a strong investment for the future development of boxing and therefore must be borne by the Confederations. • This is why the Confederations should be given more resources from the funds that AIBA receives from the IOC. • We have this important opportunity to build the European Boxing Academy in Assisi, Italy, with full cooperation and support of local and national Institutions. • European Boxing Academy will be opened to all other Continents. Boxing Management Course • The Boxing Management Course is intended to answer the pressing need to train new boxing managers, endowing them with the capacities to promote the different forms of modern boxing and confront modern day sports challenges. • This course will be taught by specialized international instructors and aims to impart both a cultural and professional background that will help the Continental National Federations to realize their ambitions. • Keeping in step with the AIBA’s directive and innovations, it is important to have managers corresponding on the national and international levels to cultivate and construct a better grassroots future for our sport. • Quality managers must be able to develop promotion, communication, organization, new image and presentation of boxing events, launch new Stars of the Ring in order to receive more attention by media, sponsors and boxing fans. Coach, R&J, ITO Courses • Recovery of the credibility and popularity of Olympic boxing is closely linked to the development of a more in-depth sports culture and a better preparation of the fundamental pillars of our organization. The coaches, referees and judges, ITOs and the ringside doctors are expression of the evolution of the boxing technique and the organization of competitions at all levels. • Training of these figures, especially coaches, is a guarantee to enrich the Olympic boxing of new

  • Moscow by Night: Musical Subcultures, Identity Formation, and Cultural Evolution in Russia, 1977–2008
    MOSCOW BY NIGHT: MUSICAL SUBCULTURES, IDENTITY FORMATION, AND CULTURAL EVOLUTION IN RUSSIA, 1977–2008 BY GREGORY R. KVEBERG DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Diane Koenker, Chair Professor Kathryn Oberdeck Professor Craig Koslofsky Professor John McKay Professor Mark Steinberg Abstract This dissertation examines the history of musical subcultures in Moscow from 1977 to 2008. It argues that subcultures were not forces for revolutionary change, or natural loci of opposition to the state. Only during the brief period from 1982 to 1984 did the state actively seek to impose a unitary vision of culture on the Soviet Union. Throughout the rest of these three decades, the state allowed a significant range of subcultural expression. This policy won either loyalty or toleration for Brezhnev’s government from a majority of Muscovite subculturalists. It proved similarly successful when re- introduced by Vladimir Putin. This dissertation asserts that this policy of tolerance allowed official culture and subcultures to evolve together in a dialectical process. This work also charts key trends in the development of subcultural identities in Moscow. Subculturalists responded to shifting political and economic situations. They generally greeted the arrival of the market with ambivalence, as many felt that musical legitimacy required artists to eschew commercial success. Subculturalists eagerly embraced the Internet, and used it to form connections to other groups of subculturalists and to archive collective memories. Contact with the west produced a variety of different responses among subculturalists, and these responses speak to larger divisions within Russian society.

  • The Bolotnaya Case No
    The Bolotnaya case No. 8 (September 16 - 22) digest september 17 - september 19 Plenty of victims, but no perpetrators On Tuesday, September 17, a Moscow OMON (special police force) ocer Denis Mukhin began his testimony. According to Mukhin, tear-gas was sprayed in his face, several stones hit his helmet, and several protesters landed punches on his body armor. However, Mukhin is named in the case as a witness - not a victim. Memorable bare chest OMON ocer Denis Mukhin in the court Photo by A.Baroshin Answering judge Nikishina’s question whether he recognized any of the defendants, Mukhin stated that he did not. The case materials include a screenshot of the video with a bare-chested young male in white shorts, similar to defendant Denis Lutskevich in appearance. The screenshot has a caption, signed by Mukhin: “Young man I mentioned during the deposition, who threw a stone at a police ocer”. Lutskevich's lawyer Dmitry Dinze asked if Mukhin had really signed the photo, and Mukhin conrmed that the signature was his. Dinze asked if Mukhin knew the last name “Lutskevich”, to which Mukhin replied that he did not remember such a last name. According to Mukhin, he went through three or four videos with an investigator, not seeing himself in any of the videos, but recognizing a man, he remembered only because the man was bare-chested. Prosecutor Kostyuk moved to read out the transcript of Mukhin’s interview with the investigators, to establish that Mukhin recognized Lutskevich as a man who threw stones. Defence attorney Dinze pointed out that no line-up was conducted, and that the witness did not remember the last name of the man in the screenshot.

    The Concept of Power in International Relations: Lessons from the Ukrainian Crisis Konstantinas Andrijauskas, Vilnius University, Lithuania The Asian Conference on the Social Sciences 2015 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract Russia’s ongoing political, economic and most disturbingly military involvement in Ukraine’s internal affairs has shaken the world in general and the Eurasian continent in particular. Despite many differences of opinion, most Western scholars tend to agree that Moscow thus demonstrates its adherence to “traditional” concepts of power understood both as status and means of influence projection. The former argument relies on Russia’s remarkably high status-awareness due to its relatively recent superpower experience and fear of perceived American hegemony. The latter one underlines its continuous reliance on hard power resources, reminding zero-sum, “spheres of influence” mentality of the late 19th century Europe. Although both these views seem to have much to do with reality, the “power discourse” surrounding the Ukrainian crisis usually mitigates the agency of another side of the conflict. Being one of the largest European countries, Ukraine not only is a potential middle power in its own right, but also presents a new ideational challenge to Putin’s Russia, questioning the Kremlin’s electoral legitimacy, Russia’s European identity, its historical “anti-fascist” credentials, and perhaps most importantly its Russian-ness itself. Thus, although desperately lacking in “harder” (i.e. military and economic) power compared to the huge neighbour, present-day Ukraine contains important “softer” power resources, which might amount to a potentially crippling attack on Moscow’s geopolitical vision and official identity projects with possible repercussions for its future stability.
