KARBAINOV, Research Fellow E-mail: [email protected] Sociological Institute of the RAS — a branch of the Federal Research Sociological Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Saint Petersburg, Russia Abstract. The article is devoted to the socio-economic adaptation of single-industry towns’ population on the example of single-industry settlements in the North-West of Russia. The work’s theoretical and meth- odological framework is the approaches of scientists who study the grassroots practices of survival of small towns and villages (seasonal work, commuting, a distributed way of life, the informal economy). The empir- ical base of the study are statistical data collected from the databases of EMISS, SPARK Interfax, the Foun- dation for the Development of Single-Industry Towns, websites of administrations of single-industry set- tlements in the Northwestern Federal District, as well as data from field studies collected by the method of semi-formalized interviews with representatives of administrations and deputies of city and regional coun- cils, with ordinary residents of single-industry towns in Republic of Karelia, Leningrad and Vologda oblasts.

Received: 4 July 2020; Accepted: 27 July 2020; Published: 29 July 2020 Abstract: While the current consumption of wild food plants in the taiga of the American continent is a relatively well-researched phenomenon, the European taiga area is heavily underrepresented in the scientific literature. The region is important due to its distinctive ecological conditions with restricted seasonal availability of wild plants. During an ethnobotanical field study conducted in 2018–2019, 73 people from ten settlements in the Republic of Karelia were interviewed. In addition, we conducted historical data analysis and ethnographical source analysis. The most widely consumed wild food plants are forest berries (three Vaccinium species, and Rubus chamaemorus), sap-yielding Betula and acidic Rumex. While throughout the lifetime of the interviewees the list of used plants did not change considerably, the ways in which they are processed and stored underwent several stages in function of centrally available goods, people’s welfare, technical progress, and ideas about the harm and benefit of various products and technological processes.

  • Traditions of Lay Orthodoxy in the Russian North
    Religion, State & Society, Vo!. 28, No. 1, 2000 Traditions of Lay Orthodoxy in the Russian North SERGEI FILATOV & ROMAN LUNKIN History books and political propaganda have taught us to think about Russian culture in geographical terms, as something that is an integrated whole. Political develop­ ment over the past few years under the banner of 'federalism' has led to a number of political and economic declarations about the diversity of the regions, but behind all these declarations there are short-term economic interests connected with the avail­ ability or absence of resources, the varying depth of the economic crisis and the level of political ambition of regional politicians. More often than not we remain unaware of the fundamental diversity of historical background and of the resulting diversity of culture, mentality, religiosity and socio-political orientation. Despite this, and even given the unitary and centralised nature of Muscovite power, the historical memory of Tver', Saratov, Vladivostok or the North-West varies considerably. Holy Rus', on whose land walked hundreds of heroes of the faith, where to this day every little town has its ancient churches, where great icon­ painters laboured, where our ancient history took place, where the Russian people suffered from the Tatar yoke and lived through the Times of Troubles of the seven­ teenth century, is but a relatively small part of our homeland. A slightly bigger area is formed by the territory where there were aristocratic estates (some of which survive to this day in continued decline), which were the hearth of classical Russian culture of the nineteenth century.

  • Soviet Karelia in the Letters & Memoirs Of
    LIFE MOVING FORWARD: SOVIET KARELIA IN THE LETTERS & MEMOIRS OF FINNISH NORTH AMERICANS SAMIRA S. SARAMO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, CANADA SEPTEMBER 2014 © SAMIRA SARAMO, 2014 Abstract In the first years of the 1930s, some 6500 Finnish Canadians and Finnish Americans moved to Soviet Karelia, motivated by the economic depression and the dream of participating in the building of a Finnish-led workers’ society, with employment, education, and healthcare for all. Their recruitment as “foreign specialists” who would modernize the Karelian economy secured for them preferential access to food, housing, and work postings, but life in Karelia was very different than what the immigrants had previously known. Despite difficulties and a heavy return migration, those who stayed threw themselves into the building of socialism. However, by 1936, the Stalinist regime viewed ethnic minorities and foreigners as threats to the Soviet order, and the Finnish leadership in Karelia was ousted and a violent attack on ethnic Finns and Finnish culture took over the region, shattering the dream of the ‘Red Finn Haven.’ This dissertation examines letters written by Finnish North Americans in Karelia to friends and family remaining in Canada and the United States, as well as memoirs and retrospective letter collections that look back on life in Karelia in the 1930s. These sources, brought together under the umbrella of life writing, are analysed in two ways. They are used to construct a history of the immigrants’ everyday life, with chapters exploring topics such as travel and first impressions, housing, food, health and hygiene, clothing, children’s experiences, formal labour, political participation, celebrations, popular culture, sociability, and repression.

  • The Karelians of Olonets Province in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries
    STUDIES OF LOCAL LORE AS A FORM OF ETHNIC CONSCIOUSNESS: THE KARELIANS OF OLONETS PROVINCE IN THE NINETEENTH AND TWENTIETH CENTURIES ALEXANDR M. PASHKOV Docent, Cand. of History Head of the Department Department of the pre-1917 Russian History Faculty of History, University of Petrozavodsk Lenin Prospect, 33, 185910 Petrozavodsk, Russia e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Author* deals with 19th century intellectuals of Olonets Karelian origin who started to be interested in local language, culture and ways of life. They started to compile and publish corresponding texts and it meant the beginning of ethnic mobilization of Karelians. Author starts with a brief overview of local historical background and continues with activities of three intellectuals of Karelian origin (I. V. Kondratyev, M. N. Smirnov, N. F. Leskov). KEYWORDS: Russian Karelia ● Karelians ● local lore ● ethnic consciousness ● eth- nic mobilization At the end of the nineteenth century a large group of Karelians lived in the Olonets province (guberniya), part of the present-day Republic of Karelia at the north-western Russia. According to the 1897 census the Karelian population comprised 16.3 per cent of the entire province (Pokrovskaya 1974: 103). The proximity of the capital, St. Petersburg, the Russian Empire’s largest economic and cultural centre, as well as the close presence of Finland, then a part of Russia, had a major influence on the ethnic development of Karelians. This paper seeks to demonstrate the preconditions, conditions and outcomes of the development of what may be called “historical oral tradition”: an approach com- bining history, ethnography, folklore, culture and lifestyle of a certain area, which was carried out by local people themselves amongst the Karelians of Olonets province at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Sulazhgora (Sulazh Hill) glaciofluvial delta The delta is located in the northern environs of Petrozavodsk. Standing on the top of the hill, a visitor will enjoy a spectacular view of the Shuya Lowland (40-75 m.a.s.l.) and the Solomennoye denudation ridge (122m.a.s.l.). The delta consists dominantly of ca.40 m thick sandy, occasionally gravel sediments. In the southern part of the delta, deltaic sediments are covered by ablation till. The laminae dip at 15 to 40 degrees. The material was transported from west to east. This big delta evolved in Middle Dryas (Neva cold stage) - early Allerod time, when the ice front rimmed the northern and eastern slopes of the so-called Olonets denudation uplift at an altitude of 120-313 m.a.s.l. The Shuya Lowland was already ice-free at this time and was covered by meltwater from Shuya Ice Lake. The lake had an outlet to the east into Onega Ice Lake located in the southern part of modern Lake Onega and adjacent lowlands. Delta was formed between the ice front on the north and bedrock uplift on the south. It looks like a glaciofluvial terrace, 3 km in length and up to 2 km in width. The maximum altitude of the delta is 117 m.a.s.l. It shows the maximal level of Onega Ice Lake at this time.

  • Soviet Culture in the GULAG
    ╢118╞ Chapter V. Painting the Dogs Into the Racoons: Soviet Culture in the GULAG «Perekovka» If the key to understanding the institutional history of the GULAG rests in broad- er political and economic context of the Soviet history, to understand it's social and cultural aspects one needs to refer to Soviet cultural and educational policy. From the middle of the 1930s Soviet culture (also frequently referred to as «Stalinist cul- ture») repudiated earlier iconoclasm, and the avant-garde, replacing it with neo-classicism (reverting to Russian classical heritage) and Socialist Realism. Th e policy was pursued of creating a cultural order in which the lower classes would receive proper education and share in Russian high culture and create all-union culture that would serve as a unifying force among all Soviet citizens. Appeal to the «masses» to participate in the process of «cultural construction» coincided with a didactic popularization of Russian and European classics. In the camps the cultural-educational mission was entrusted to the Cultural-edu- cational Section of the GULAG (the KVCh). Initially, the KVCh was a subdivision of the Political Section of the GULAG. Th e chief of the camp KVCh was an assis- tant to the chief of the camp, and the latter was also responsible for directing and controlling the camp propaganda [17. P. 120]. Th e cultural mission of Soviet labor camps, pursued along these lines, coincided with the well-known re-forging, «perekovka» theme that resounded during the construction of the White-Sea Baltic Canal.
