    Viktor Yushchenko, Ukrainian president (2005-2010), prime minister (1999-2001) Anna Sous, RFE/RL Date of interview: July 2015 ************* (This interview was conducted in Russian.) Anna Sous: Viktor Andriyovych, an undeclared war is now being fought on the territory of Ukraine. When you see footage of the residents of Ukrainian villages on their knees, of the bodies of soldiers who have died in eastern Ukraine being carried away -- these are images that no one can watch with indifference -- what do you feel? Viktor Yushchenko: The first sensation is that today, in the world we live in, there's a power that lives near us. I wouldn't say it's a flourishing power -- it's a power of destruction, something from the Middle Ages, a power following a path that not a single European nation has joined. This is modern Russian politics. And I have tried dozens and dozens of times at conferences to make one thing clear: Don't call this a Ukrainian problem. Don't call what's going on in Azerbaijan, in Nagorno-Karabakh, an Azerbaijani problem. Don't call what's happening in South Ossetia and Abkhazia a Georgian problem. Or what's happening in Transdniester a Moldovan problem. These are all Russian problems. It's an entire chain of destabilization that exists alongside all of us in Eastern Europe. The hardships that Ukraine is now enduring have, of course, hurt the nation tremendously. But I would very much like to see Europe and the rest of the world begin to read this situation as a conflict and a geopolitical problem.

The First Channel of Moscow’s Central Television Studio began to reach all eleven Soviet time zones in the same years, 1965-1970, that marked the beginning of a new political era, the period of decline, corruption, and cynicism, but also stability, relative prosperity, and vibrant popular culture, that came to be called, retrospectively, the “era of stagnation.” Nearly all of the iconic images and sounds of this period were mediated by television: Brezhnev’s slurred speech and corpselike appearance, the singing of Iosif Kobzon and Alla Pugacheva, the parades and funerals on Red Square, and Olympic figure skating, to name just a few. Quotations and jokes drawn from specific TV movies and shows are ubiquitous in post-Soviet memoirs and the press.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Zea E-Books by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Remarkable Russian Women in Pictures, Prose and Poetry N Marcelline Hutton Many Russian women of the late 19th and early 20th centuries tried to find happy marriages, authentic religious life, liberal education, and ful- filling work as artists, doctors, teachers, and political activists. Some very remarkable ones found these things in varying degrees, while oth- ers sought unsuccessfully but no less desperately to transcend the genera- tions-old restrictions imposed by church, state, village, class, and gender. Like a Slavic “Downton Abbey,” this book tells the stories, not just of their outward lives, but of their hearts and minds, their voices and dreams, their amazing accomplishments against overwhelming odds, and their roles as feminists and avant-gardists in shaping modern Russia and, in- deed, the twentieth century in the West.

  • The Day of Family, Love and Faithfulness in Global Perspective
    The Day of Family, Love and Faithfulness in Global Perspective Introduction During my stay at the Leibniz ScienceCampus “Eastern Europe – Global Area” in Leipzig, I continue to work on my recent ethnographic research project on the interrelation between Russian Orthodoxy and politics.1 The topic is particularly relevant because it offers new insights for the analysis of previous and current developments in the Russian Federation, and beyond. Most authors, however, have emphasized the legitimating role of the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) and tried to show how the ROC and Orthodox activists are supporting the state.2 This builds on a research tradition where the ROC is described to be extraordinarily close to the state and suitable for its legitimation. On the one hand, these authors seem to claim continuity to the Soviet times where Richard Pipes characterized the ROC as “servant of the state”.3 For post- socialist Russia, however, this is an open question and has to be shown whereas most authors seem to take this assumption at face value without providing further evidence. On the other hand, the image of the continuing importance of Byzantine legacies seems to dominate the interpretation of the state-church relationship until today. In particular, the idea of a harmonic interrelation between church and state, called symphonia, is put forward.4 But here it is important to take into account the changes the concept underwent already in Byzantine times and later on. This is a point which has been aptly described by Cyril Hovorun who notes that even its alleged supporters would hesitate to implement it today when realizing all its consequences.5 Here it becomes obvious that the proposed ideal of a harmonious relationship between state and church was neither met in Byzantine times nor afterward.

Both Russian and American academics have tackled the political implications and historical innovations of perestroika-era groups such as Akvarium, Mashina Vremeni, and DDT. Similarly, the Beatles craze of the 1960s is also frequently mentioned in scholarly works as an enormous social phenomenon in the USSR – academics and critics alike wax poetic about the influence of the Fab Four on the drab daily lives of Soviet citizens. Yet what happened in between these two moments of Soviet musical life? Very little critical work has been done on Soviet popular music of the 1970s, its place in Soviet society, or its relationship to Western influences.

  • From Truth to Time: Soviet Central Television, 1957-1985 by Christine Elaine Evans a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Satisfact
    From Truth to Time: Soviet Central Television, 1957-1985 By Christine Elaine Evans A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede Professor Olga Matich Spring 2010 From Truth to Time: Soviet Central Television, 1957-1985 © 2010 By Christine Elaine Evans Abstract From Truth to Time: Soviet Central Television, 1957-1985 by Christine Elaine Evans Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair The Brezhnev era (1964-1982) was also the era of television. The First Channel of Moscow’s Central Television Studio began to reach all eleven Soviet time zones in the same years, 1965-1970, that marked the beginning of a new political era, the period of decline, corruption, and cynicism, but also stability, relative prosperity, and vibrant popular culture, that came to be called, retrospectively, the “era of stagnation.” Nearly all of the iconic images and sounds of this period were mediated by television: Brezhnev’s slurred speech and corpselike appearance, the singing of Iosif Kobzon and Alla Pugacheva, the parades and funerals on Red Square, and Olympic figure skating, to name just a few. Quotations and jokes drawn from specific TV movies and shows are ubiquitous in post-Soviet memoirs and the press. Most strikingly, several of the most important programs created during the 1960s and 1970s are still a prominent part of current Russian television. This dissertation analyzes the political and ideological dilemmas of the Brezhnev era through the lens of television, the medium with which that era is so closely associated.

However, he came under political pressure in the 1930s because some of his works, such as the Restored Youth (1933), were too sly ambiguous to fit the socialist realistic model. In 1946, together with Akhmatova, he was chosen for an extraordinary attack by the head of culture, Andrei Zhdanov, and was excluded from the Union of Soviet Writers. Since then, he has mostly produced translations. Zoshchenko was an extremely effective satirist who took his subjects from the paradoxes and inconsistencies of post-revolutionary Russian society. He pointed out that human nature, which the new government was trying to change, would nevertheless assert itself. His language is fascinating. He often chooses low-class narrators who speak in a mixture of colloquial and new Soviet rhetoric---with extremely comical results. In the 1930s, Zoshchenko's fiction began to explore philosophical and theoretical issues. A well-known example is Before Sunrise, the first part was published in 1943. In it the author analyzes his psyche, in the process of touching on Freud's then forbidden theories. The publication of the full text of this work did not take place until 1972.
