Photo: Anna Moiseenko Climate change has serious implications for global food production and food security. Part One of this report uses scientific data on current changes and future scenarios to examine possible impacts on crop production in the Russian Federation. It considers what measures Russia might need to implement to achieve its desired aim of playing a leading role in ensuring global food security. Part Two uses interviews with farmers to highlight ways in which they are adapting to new climatic conditions, but also the problems those conditions are posing, particularly to smallholders. It considers what more should be done to support their efforts to boost their resilience and contribute to national food security.

Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Ruth von Bernuth Jonathan Boyarin Rudolf Colloredo-Mansfeld James Peacock Michele Rivkin-Fish © 2017 Anna Kushkova ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Anna Kushkova: Navigating the planned economy: Accommodation and survival in Moscow’s post-war ‘Soviet Jewish Pale’ (Under the direction of Michele Rivkin-Fish and Jonathan Boyarin) This dissertation presents an anthropological case study of Jewish engagement in the Soviet “planned economy,” or the “economy of shortage,” in a specific geographic setting of Moscow Jewish suburbs in the first decades after World War II. Due to a range of socio-political, economic and demographic developments Moscow’s suburban settlements with their dense pattern of Jewish residence, unparalleled in Soviet history, turned into what may be called a “Soviet Jewish pale” – a distinctive socio-cultural Jewish environment sustaining a specific configuration of Soviet Jewishness, not fully coinciding with that of the former shtetl, yet different from that characteristic of large urban settings. The study focuses on one particular sphere constitutive of the suburban Jewish collective identity, that is, the economic practices where Jewishness played a vital role in creating channels for obtaining production resources, organizing production and devising distribution strategies. It demonstrates that the prohibition of private entrepreneurship on the part of the socialist state, largely ideological rather than economic in nature, called forth a likewise not purely economic response from below – ethnic mobilization in certain spheres of the formal socialist economy.

Abstract Linguistic purism, language shift, and contact-induced change in Tatar by Suzanne Wertheim Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Berkeley Professor Leanne Hinton, Chair This dissertation examines both the causes and symptoms of language shift using the specific case of Tatar in present-day Tatarstan. In Chapter One, Tatar is shown to be an example of potentially reversible “gradual language death,” where Russian is encroaching on Tatar functional domains. Bilingual Tatar speakers have a range of styles that can be organized according to level of language mixing, with pure Tatar on one end, pure Russian on the other end, and “mixed” styles in between. Members of the “Tatar Social Club”, young Tatar-Russian bilinguals, are carving out a new Tatar functional domain in an overwhelmingly Russian urban setting.
