Axis Mundi, časopis štu- Egalitarian Utopias and Conservative Politics Veche as a Societal Ideal within Rodnoverie Movement Kaarina Aitamurto Aleksanteri Institute, Finnish Centre for Russian and Eastern European Studies at the University of Helsinki Rodnoverie is a religion that seeks to revive pre-Christian Slavic spirituality. As the majority of contemporary Pagan religions, Rodnoverie is characterized by the antiauthoritarian spirit and avoidance of dogmatism. Similar vernacular and individualistic ideals can also be seen in the societal views of Rodnoverie. Rodnovers often present the veche, the ancient Slavic popular assembly, to be an ideal model of governance. Nevertheless, the representations of the veche may considerably vary. On the one hand, veche is employed to promote grass-root democracy. On the other hand, the ideal of the veche has also been used by Ronovers who are reflecting democracy highly critically. The aim of this paper is to examine these contradictious Rodnoverie representations of the veche and Rodnoverie societal ideals in general. As a case study of vernacular political visioning, Rodnoverie provides an interesting outlook both on the recent resurrection of Slavophil political tradition in Russia and on the attempts to establish native roots for democratic values.

Organized Crime – Definition, Players and Global Threat
Transnational Crime MSCR 640 Regis University Week 2 Post-Soviet “Russian” Organized Crime – Definition, Players and Global Threat John Giduck © By John Giduck, all rights reserved, 1995, 2017 1 The Need of Define ROC. One of the greatest difficulties facing those individuals and organizations which must deal with the impact of Russian Organized Crime (ROC) is answering the question, exactly what is Russian organized crime? This difficulty derives in part from the extreme secrecy with which ROC members have always functioned; and has been exacerbated by both news media and law enforcement agencies, whose own particular ends are better served by sensationalized and exaggerated accounts of ROC membership, rising numbers of groups, types and frequency of various crimes. What remains missing is a clear understanding of what exactly Russian organized crime and ROC groups are. Certainly, the media of the 1990s, in reporting incidents of street crime and overall rising crime rates in Russia, utilized a liberal construction of this term, it then being in vogue to blame much on the mafiya. In reality, it will be seen that there are actually many layers of crime in Russia, a number of which are not, and have never been, mafiya controlled.1 Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in late 1991, news media accounts of an increasing crime rate paralleled rising estimates of the number of actual ROC groups and numbers. Rarely a month went by in the three years after the USSR’s collapse that some newspaper, magazine or television show did not proffer a statistic on the number of ROC groups operating across Russia that was not substantially greater than those previously reported. -

UNITED NATIONS THE PARIS PACT INITIATIVE Office on Drugs and Crime A partnership to counter traffic in Regional Office for Russia and Belarus and consumption of Afghan opiates Illicit Drug Trends in the Russian Federation April 2008 2 Acknowledgments The Paris Pact Illicit Drug Trends Report for Russia and Belarus was prepared by the Paris Pact National Strategic Analyst of the UNODC Regional Office for Russia and Belarus and benefited from the work and expertise of officials from the UNODC Regional Office for Central Asia. In particular, the following UNODC officials contributed to the preparation of this report: Alexandre Schmidt, Officer-in-Charge, Regional Office Russia and Belarus; Vladimir Ibragimov, Paris Pact National Strategic Analyst, Regional Office Russia and Belarus; and Hakan Demirbuken, Regional Monitoring Expert for South-West Asia, Research and Analysis Section, Regional Office for Central Asia. The Paris Pact is an international partnership to combat traffic in and abuse of Afghan opiates. At the first Ministerial Conference on Drug Routes from Central Asia to Europe, held in Paris in May 2003, more than 60 countries and international organizations agreed to join forces in order to limit the flow of opiates from Afghanistan to and through all countries along the smuggling routes. At the second Ministerial Conference on Drug Trafficking Routes from Afghanistan held in Moscow in June 2006 partners reiterated the need for enhanced and coordinated counter narcotics action to reduce opiates trafficking, consumption and related health problems in the region. UNODC is leading the follow-up to these Ministerial Conferences through the Paris Pact Initiative, a project that facilitates periodical consultations at the expert and policy level and also aims to strengthen data collection and analytical capacities in and around Afghanistan. -

Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 364 International Conference on Sustainable Development of Cross-Border Regions: Economic, Social and Security Challenges (ICSDCBR 2019) The impact of migration processes on crime rates in the Novosibirsk region and certain specifics of its investigation N K Korovin¹ and O V Shmygina1* ¹ Siberian University of Consumer Cooperation, 26 Karla Marksa prosp., Novosibirsk 630087 Russia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The article discusses the impact of external migration flows on crime rates in the Novosibirsk region. For the period covering 2016-2019, the main indicators on the migration situation in the Russian Federation are analyzed. Ways of solving illegal migration affecting the growth of crime are presented. The article points to the need to study certain elements in the forensic characterization of crimes committed by migrants and in relation to them. The algorithm for investigating these types of crimes is proposed in the paper. Keywords: migration, migration policy, crime, crime rate, investigation 1. Introduction Nowadays, the regulation of migration is one of the most necessary and serious tests for international cooperation. Migration is one of the drivers of economic growth, innovation, and sustainable development. Migration is caused by such negative social phenomena as discrimination based on ethnicity, armed conflicts, and extreme poverty. In the modern world, migration often becomes a factor of crime [1]. The problem of criminal legal assessment of illegal migration is due to the duality of the public danger of this phenomenon: there are certainly a public danger of illegal migration itself and a public danger of its consequences [2]. -
