dc.description.abstract

value:
Stylistic transformations of Chinese peasant painting nongminhua is inextricably linked with changes
in the political life of the CPR. In its development this folk craft passed through three stages, the first
of which fell during the “Great Leap Forward” period (1958–60). During this time nongminhua existed
in the form of works of naive propaganda painted as wall murals and later on paper. In the second
stage, which coincided with the later years of “The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution” (1966–76),
nongminhua was produced in the form of political posters in socialist realist style. The ongoing third
phase, which began during “Reform and Opening Up” period of the 1980s, is characterized by the
rejection of politicized content and focus on folk art. The author of the present article traces the history
of some of the most important centers of nongminhua production, which emerged in different periods.
Earlier, we had already made a prone study of the largest nongminhua production center
in Huxian county (Shaanxi Province), and in this article we will focus on the history and style of
other regions. The latter were chosen for the following reasons: Shulu (Hebei Province) and Peixian
(Jiangsu Province) are important for our research as origin areas of nongminhua, Jinshan (Shanghai)
is of interest as a centre of the formation of the modern style, and Longmen (Guangdong Province)
is examined as one of the largest nongminhua production centers at present. Unfortunately, the size
of the article does not permit to explore a larger number of important centers, so our study will be
continued in subsequent work. Refs 10. Figs 5.

The article deals with issues describing the nature of cross-cultural conflict. The source of conflict
is social conflict. Modern society in cultural terms is a rather diverse phenomenon that leads to the
emergence of hotbeds of tension and conflict. The most difficult point is the escalation of social conflict
into intercultural conflict. Analysis of the historical development of intercultural conflict uncovers
the powerful potential of its ability to reach different spheres of society other than the one in which
it originally arose. It impacts several neighboring areas of social development. Intercultural conflict
generates its energy from various situations: domestic policy, international relations, economics, and
other fields. Refs 10.

The essay is dedicated to the unique history of the poem setting by Georgy Sviridov ‘Petersburg’ for

with the composer singer Dmitri Khvorostovsky and pianist Michael Arkadyev, the active
participation of artists in the selection of songs and the order of their alternation in the piece. This was
made possible thanks to the deep-nurtured plan of the mega-cycle by Sviridov to Blok’s words, tentatively
titled the ‘Bol’shoy (Big) Blok’ or ‘From Blok’. The article presents the history of the great place
of birth of this plan, the history of the Sviridov’s incorporation of Blok’s poetic heritage, discusses the
influence of Blok’s ideological heritage and the poetics Sviridov creativity.
The essay also addresses the issue of the tradition of artistic and philosophical understanding

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article focuses on the epistemological examination of the ideological and philosophical climate
of post-Soviet Russia. The author shows that the so-called «religious renaissance» is far from being a
harmless phenomenon of spiritual life but is rather a new form of ideological dictatorship. The method
of the latter is confirmed as an alteration of information and political priorities in the direction of a
purposeful discrediting of the scientific atheistic paradigm. The article identifies five levels or types
of fraud based on an equivocation (mixing of senses) that is being firmly implanted in the public consciousness: atheism as an ideology; atheism as a discourse; atheism as a religion; atheism as
immorality; atheism as a latent intheism (godlessness). According to the author, being purified from
ideological impurities, scientific atheism is an adequate reasoned response from the intellectual and
progressive community which consists in conscious counteraction against the discrediting of scientific
knowledge, that seeks institute religious dogma and myth-making. These adherents, regardless of
their religious affiliation pursue a common goal: the creation of a corporate pseudo-elite, claiming
informational, ideological and political hegemony. The scientific-atheistic paradigm has genuine
moral and ethical values and credibility in the sense that an atheist demonstrates reasonable spiritual
autarchy, but within the framework of universal human universal values. This is rather a sign of the
person’s intellectual maturity and correctness rather than deviance and social perversion. All this, as
suggested by the author, can serve as the basis for the extension of scientific atheism as the foundation
of a genuine humanist integration of differences and the development of adequate and rational
concepts – a governance strategy. Its essence lies in the consistent implementation of the «doctrine of
deterrence» toward clericalism in all its manifestations, restrictions on religious practice by regulatory
and legal regulation of the limits of its distribution. Refs 33.

value:
The subject of the article is the epoch-making images of mind as products of “education” in the sense of
the Platonic paideia or the Hegelian concept of Aufhebung (sublation). Images of this kind are created
by “looking back” on ourselves. Such conversion reveals ourselves for the first time and acquires
different scopes embracing both individual “self-identification” and epoch-making comprehension.
The very name of this event of anthropogenesis — self-identification, indicates identity as its center
and periphery at the same time, since in this event there (every time) comes true everything, i.e. the
whole world with all its inhabitants including those who exist exclusively in the whole world, without
knowing it as a whole and always inquiring about it in general. When they “came to themselves”, i.e.
achieved self-identity, they had already found themselves abandoned in one or another world whose
wholeness may vary, manifesting itself in different epoch-making images of “cosmic” mind: The
Aristorelian mind-prime mover, the Divine mind of our Father, Lord of all creation (in this case it is
“super cosmic”) or the mind of a New European human. Refs 11.

value:
This paper discusses a problem of house and homelessness in an oeuvre of one of the most significant
American dramatists, Clifford Odets. This problem is considered in a broad aspect and also in narrow,
specific circumstances, on the example of Odets’s first full-length play “Awake and Sing!” (1935). Its
genre is defined as a family chronicle; the story is contained within the four walls of one flat in Bronx,
where a Jewish family that bears the name Bergers is lodged. They are immigrants from the Eastern Europe desperately trying to find their second Motherland, the second home in the US. But having lost
their roots and, as seems, having just made it to shore, they again — with all their might — flee from
the newly found family. Such analysis shown in this paper is aimed at expanding the views on Odets’s
dramatic works; its goal is also to consider his artistic method of creating an image of Jewish emigré
from Eastern Europe in the USA. Refs 23. Figs 7.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Thousands of people are leaving Ethiopia monthly to be employed in the Gulf states. This involvement
of Ethiopians in labor migration shapes the modern culture of the country. There are hundreds
of songs, poems and movies based on the concept of siddet — an Amharic term which can be roughly
translated as migration or exile. In this paper the way in which labor migration is presented in Amharic
fiction is analysed. Two Amharic novels taken for the research (“Thorny gold” by Saada Muhammed
and “Alemnesh, a refugee in the Middle East” by Melake Teezazu) appear to reproduce the negative
discourse on migration. Thus, stories about successful migration are absent making suffering of compatriots
the major topic of the narration. I argue that the concept of siddet manages to create a new
transnational Ethiopian identity, based on the idea of common national tragedy. Although the culture
of exile is mostly created by the diaspora, it is in demand among those how stay behind. Refs 17.

This article analyzes the fine examples of humiliation of the flesh in the practice of asceticism, continuing
the development of the plot of Calvary suffering of Jesus Christ. The subject of the ‘Passion’
was firmly established in the culture of the Middle Ages, giving viewers an aesthetically experienced
admiration for the martyrdom of the great ascetics of Christianity. The author presented the evolution
of instruments of torture and martyrdom (cross, spear, scourge, whips) in relics — the core of Eastern
culture. The icon ‘The Adoration of the chains of St. Peter’ is an example of the pious relationship of
Christians to the instruments of torture used against the firm defenders of the doctrine of Christ.
Particular attention is paid to the phenomenon of foolishness in Christ, the Russian analogue of
the Byzantine martyrdom. The author examines examples of the suffering of revered ascetics in the
Middle Ages, it became a kind of attribute of the polypathy of Christian martyrs, undertake voluntarily.
Drawing parallels between the different kinds of art of the Middle Ages, the author draws
attention to the similarity of the topic ‘mortification of the flesh’. This motif came into hagiography
and was reflected in the fine arts, which was one of the main recognizable features in the shape of a
holy fool for Christ’s sake. Visualising the veneration of the attributes of suffering for the most ardent
devotees of the Christian faith and the typology of works of art with objects of humiliation of the flesh
is a meaningful leitmotif of this article. Refs 23. Figs 8.

value:
Complexes of cis- and trans-isomers of diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (DDP) with bovine serum
albumin (BSA) were studied using electrophoretic analysis and FTIR spectroscopy. We have
demonstrated that intermolecular protein complexes were formed in solutions containing excessive
amount of platinum and BSA in concentrations close to the physiological one. Analysis of the IR
spectra revealed that the interaction of BSA with DDP is accompanied by decreasing α-helical
content of the BSA from 65 to 55% in the complexes with cis-DDP and to 48% in the case of
trans-DDP; while the amount of β-structures in the protein increases from 15–20 to 20–30% in
the complexes with cis-DDP and to 35–40% in the complexes with trans-DDP. Based on the data obtained we suggest, that the binding of DDP induces the changes in the protein secondary
structure, which stimulates dimerization of the BSA in solution. Refs 47. Figs 3. Tables 1.

The article focuses on the role of Russian traditionalism in the formation of national identity in Russia
and especially its actualization from a historical perspective. Based on the ideas of N. Danilevsky
and KN Leontiev, the author defends the thesis that the logic of national reality expresses its structural
contents. This is the essence of the national tradition whose stability is set out as productive interaction
through, on the one hand, conditional objective factors (natural) and, on the other, relatively
subjective (mental, moral) factors. And if the first, being passive, is tradition, the second, its activity,
is determined. The article stresses that any self-knowledge is an expression of active attitude of the
people in the first case to itself through correlation of the activity (its goals and forms) with the objective
order of things. The Russian-Russian understanding can be understood as the identification of
stable, reproducible regularly, structural relationships in their natural and artificial relativity. Refs 7.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper seeks to advance the understanding of the corporate university phenomenon by
addressing the role that a corporate university plays in coordinating the flows of organisational
knowledge. Drawing on the longitudinal in-depth case study of Severstal Corporate University,
we illustrate how a corporate university contributes to dynamic knowledge management in the
company by serving as a coordinator of its knowledge flows. The study provides evidence of
how a corporate university — by performing three different knowledge-coordinating roles —
operates as a corporate function to support evolving business strategies during different
periods of organisational development. The findings suggest the following roles of a corporate
university are related to the coordination of knowledge flows: knowledge-harmonising,
knowledge-disseminating, and knowledge-centralising. As a result of the study, a corporate
university appears as a dynamic concept with development stages that can be explained from
a teleological rather than life cycle perspective. That is, a corporate university’s development
is driven by its changing purpose and goals that are constructed and reconstructed according
to the evolving knowledge needs of its parent company.

value:
In this paper we discuss the questions related to determination of light radiation pressure upon a space
structures of optically convex shape. The equation for force from light pressure acting upon an space
optically convex structure’s surface infinitesimal element is given with assumption that the surface may
be shadowed partly. We derive the infinitesimal light radiation force as a series based on representation
of absolute value function as a series of Chebyshev polynomials of first kind. We also obtain the tensor
equations which describe the shape and the optical properties of a surface independently from its attitude.
For these tensor equations we presented the equations for resultant vector and principal moment of light
radiation pressure on the space structure. We also provide an example equations for flat two-sided solar
sail. These results can be used for the analysis of dynamics of a center of gravity and around center of
mass of a space structures, and also for the development of adaptive control systems of satellites which
can take solar pressure into account. Refs 41. Figs 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This note deals with a hybrid static gain observer for a linear time-invariant continuous plant under
an intrinsic pulse-modulated feedback. The pulse parameters representing the discrete state of the hybrid
system are not available for direct measurement and has to be estimated through continuous measurements.
It poses an unusual observation problem. A considerable number of papers is devoted to the observability
of hybrid systems, where the discrete states of a system are usually assumed known, while observers for
hybrid systems that are able to reconstruct discrete states from only continuous measurements are not
so well covered in the literature. With the time delay taken into account, the pulse-modulated model
acquires an infinite-dimensional continuous part. The closed-loop dynamics become therefore both hybrid
and infinite-dimensional, and this combination is mathematically challenging and so far rarely treated.
However, the cascade structure of the continuous part, together with the impulsive feedback, allow the
application of the concept of finite-dimensional reducibility (FD-reducibility), in particular the fact, that
the dynamics of an impulsive time-delay system with an FD-reducible continuous part coincide on certain
time intervals with the dynamics of a delay-free impulsive system. This idea plays a key role in the
present study. Nevertheless the observer proposed here explicitly involve a delay and based on the infinitedimensional
original plant model, on the one hand it complicates the study of its properties, but on the
other allows observation of the system for the entire time interval.
An pointwise discrete mapping (known in the hybrid systems theory as Poincare mapping), describing
the observer dynamics is derived, constituting the contribution of the paper. With the use of this pointwise
mapping the mathematical modeling of the system can be performed and obtained the observer stability
conditions for synchronous mode with respect to the periodic solution of the system. Refs 14. Figs 2.

value:
The breakdown of kinetics was studied in thin gas-filled gaps with the semiconductor electrode
and the influence of surge in a pulsed mode. It has been shown that such a system allows to
discriminate background optical image in photographic ionization system. Semi-insulating gallium
arsenide was used as a photo detector since it possessed photo conductance in the wavelength
range of 0.8–1.7 μm. The gas discharge gap thickness was dg   0.1 mm, the air pressure in the
gap was 38–228 mm Hg. In the experiments we used a DC supply voltage, and pulsed mode.
The power supply allows the host to change the value of the voltage in the range of 0–2.5 · 103
V. The pulse generator has a pulse duration of 5–2 · 103 μs with an amplitude of up to 4 · 103 V,
and the voltage and current pulses in the ionization system — an oscilloscope C1-15. The light
source used illuminator type OI-24. Changing the intensity of the radiation incident on the input

of radiation, and the elimination of background illumination is provided by a set of interference

are obtained with finite-volume solvers ANSYS-15 CFX, Fluent and SU2. A significant hysteresis in
the dependence of the shock wave position on the Mach number is demonstrated. The existence of the
hysteresis is explained by a shock wave interaction with the supersonic zone located downstream of the

dc.description.abstract

value:
In this paper, we address the stability of an elastic thin annular plate stretched by two point loads that
are located on the outer boundary. A roller support is considered on the outer boundary while the inner
edge of the plate is free.
Muskhelishvili’s theory of complex potentials has been applied to obtain a solution of the plane
problem in the form of a power series. The buckling problem has been solved using the Rayleigh-Ritz
method, based on the energy criterion. The critical Euler force and the respective buckling mode have
been computed. Dependence between the critical force and the relative orifice size has been illustrated.
Analysis of the results has shown that a symmetric buckling mode takes place for a sufficiently large
hole, with the greatest deflection observed around the hole along the force line. However, an antisymmetric buckling mode occurs for relatively small holes, with the greatest deflection being along a line that is
orthogonal to the force line. Refs 15. Figs 5.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The exact analytical solution of nonlinear plane-strain problems for a plate with an elastic elliptic inclusion
is obtained. The constant stresses are given at infinity. The mechanical properties of a plate and inclusion
are described by model of a John’s harmonic material. For this model the methods of complex functions are
applicable to solution of nonlinear plane problems. It is supposed, that the state of stress inside inclusion
is homogeneous (tensor of nominal stresses is constant). This assumption has allowed to reduce a difficult
nonlinear problem of elliptic inclusion in plate to the solution of two more simple problems for a plate
with an elliptic hole. A validity of adopted hypothesis is justified by that the received solution precisely
satisfies to all equations and boundary conditions of a problem. It is established, that material can lose stability at uniaxial or biaxial compression of a plate. The solutions of some partial nonlinear problems
are received from the common solution: a plate with a free elliptic hole and a plate with rigid inclusion.

dc.description.abstract

value:
There are many different ways to define coordinate splines. The splines, which are defined with
approximation relations, have the best approximation properties as to order of N-width for the standard
compact sets. The suitable choice of the approximation relations gives the maximal smoothness under the
condition of minimal support for coordinate splines. On the other hand, the choice of different generating
function gives opportunity to receive splines of different types (polynomial, exponential, trigonometrical
ones and so on).
The paper is discussed the positivity of coordinate trigonometrical splines of the second order with
maximal smoothness.
Let us consider the real grid {xj}j∈Z,
. . . < x−2 < x−1 < x0 < x1 < x2 < . . .
By definition we put M def
= ∪j∈Z (xj , xj+1), Sj
def
= [xj−1, xj+2], and consider three-component vectors:
generating vector function ϕ(t) and family of vectors aj , defined with formulas
ϕ(t) def
= (1, sin t, cos t)T , aj
def
= det(ϕj ,ϕj+1,ϕ ′
j+1)ϕ ′
j − det(ϕ ′
j , ϕj+1,ϕ ′
j+1)ϕj ,
where ϕj
def
= ϕ(xj), ϕ ′
j
def
= ϕ′(xj).
The coordinate trigonometric splines ωj ∈ C1 are defined by approximation relations
ak−1ωk−1(t) + akωk(t) + ak+1ωk+1(t) ≡ ϕ(t) ∀t ∈ (xk, xk+1), ∀k ∈ Z,
ωj(t) ≡ 0 ∀t ∈ M\Sj , ∀j ∈ Z.
Theorem. The inequality xj+1 − xj < π ∀j ∈ Z is necessary and sufficient condition for
nonnegativity of the functions ωj(t) ∀j ∈ Z.
Furthermore, the sufficient conditions of convexity on the intervals (xj−1, xj), (xj+1, xj+2) and
concavity on the interval (xj , xj+1) have been obtained in the paper. Refs 16. Figs 2.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper considers the non-stationary monochromatic radiative transfer in an infinite one-dimensional
homogeneous medium. It is believed that the medium is illuminated by a momentary isotropic point
energy source. Optical properties of the medium are characterized by the absorption coefficient α, the
single-scattering albedo λ, the mean time t1 of the stay of a photon in the absorbed state and the mean
time t2 of its stay on the path between two consecutive scatterings. The exact solution of the nonstationary
radiative transfer equation was derived for the case t = t1. Asymptotic expressions were found
for the source function of average intensity and flux when points of the medium located on the large
optical distances from the power source |τ| ≫ 1 and scattering close to the light conservative (1 − λ ≪ 1)
assuming that t1 ≫ t2, t1 ≪ t2, or t1 = t2. These expressions are more precise than previously known.

equations for Markov processes with discontinuous trajectories, the author gets both first and second
Kolmogorov equations for this family of processes. These equations are called equations with fractional
derivatives. Results are based on the asymptotic analysis of transition probability when approaching the
start of transition and the time of the end. From this analysis,in particular, it is followed the trajectory of
Markov process be divided into two classes according to the range where they started. Some trajectories

The first order approximations for boundary layer in the vinicity of the surface Rayleigh wave front in shells
of revolution under shock surface loads were obtained. The proposed approach for asymptotic constructing
of boundary layer equations allowed to obtain ellyptic equations describing boundary layer variation
by thichness and hyperbolic equations defining boundary conditions on the shell surface. However, the
analysis shows that first order approximations are insufficient for derivig all stress-strain state components.
Therefore, the refined asymptotic equations were constructed, which allows to obtain all stress-strain
components with the accuracy of realtive thichness of the shell. Refs 10. Figs 2.

dc.description.abstract

value:
We proof in the present paper a theorem about approximation of a function defined on a countable union
of segments of the real line by means of entire functions of exponential type. The approximating function
is supposed to belong to a Holder class α, 0 < α < 1. The set E ⊂ R consists of disjoint segments
[an, bn],−∞ < n < ∞ such that bn − an ≍ bk − ak for any n and k and an+1 − bn ≍ bn − an for any
n. The function f defined on E supposed to be bounded by a constant M and satisfying the condition
|f(x) − f(y)| ≤ c0|x − y| , x, y ∈ [an, bn], 0 < α < 1. The construction of an approximation of f by
entire functions we begin from a construction of a series of domains D+ and D− depending of sequens
{x′}n∈Z and {x′′}n∈Z : x′
n, x′′
n ∈ [an, bn]. We introduce a special conformed mappings of D+ and D−
to themselves and use these mapping to form kernels Rk(z,w, ξ, ζ).
Afterwards we combine a continuation of a function f from the set E to the whole complex plane C
from our first part of this paper and kernels Rk(z,w, ξ, ζ). We get as a result a series of entire functions
of exponential type depending on sequences {x′
n}n∈Z and {x′′
n}n∈Z. Then we use sequences {x′
n}n∈Z and
{x′′
n}n∈Z to construct a final approximating entire function F . Refs 3.

In this paper, a stochastic approximation method is used to find a fixed point of a function observed with

problem. It is also assumed that the function is either a pseudo-contraction, or relaxed contraction, or
hemi-contraction, or quasi-contraction, or generalized contraction. By using techniques based on supermartingales,
it is shown that a modified Robbins Monro process converges to the fixed point with
probability one. The established theorem is less restrictive than a prior result by S. V.Komarov since
this theorem imposes no special requirements to the studied function. Refs 4.

A comparative study of structural peculiarities of ovoid K-feldspar porphyry and quartz of rapakivi
granite of different arrays (Aland, Vyborg, Salmi batholith rapakivi of the Baltic shield and Bardiaush

role in the formation of rapakivi granite complexes.
It was established, that the porphyritic quartz and ovoides of K-feldspar and their plagioclase shell
was formed before the crystallization of the residual cotectic melt of rapakivi granite. In the composite
hybrid magmatic rocks xenocryst K-spar have undergone a disintegration of solid solution with formation of a secondary cryptoperthite plagioclase. And xenocrystic quartz was subject to decrepitation
by primary fluid inclusions and the formation of new secondary high-temperature inclusions. In a
hybrid composite rocks formed as metamorphic and basic igneous rocks ovoid-like porphyroblast Kspar
(including plagioclase shells) and quartz porphyry (including the ‘ocelly’) was crystallized from
solution. In the crystals of quartz primary inclusions (negative crystals) of trigonal symmetry were
present, typical for low-temperature α-modification. Refs 24. Figs 9. Tables 2.

We investigated podzolic soil, which is formed above the host rock of Novye Pesky gold ore occurrence.
Mobile forms of Au, As, Cu, Ni, Zn, Se, Ag, Te, Sb, Pb, Mo and Bi were identified with a sequential
extraction method and migration form calculation by Geochemist’s Workbench in secondary
dispersion halo. The gold has characteristics different from other elements: the main mobile forms
of gold are water-soluble, bound to organic matter, bound to Fe and Mn-(oxy)hydroxides. The main
forms of gold are AuCl2- and Au+ in the aqueous phase. Refs 42. Figs 3. Tables 5.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Based on a statistical analysis of temporal variability of monthly primary production values calculated
from satellite measurements of chlorophyll, the linear trends of the primary production in different
parts of the Baltic Sea for different scales of variability are defined. Root-mean-square deviations of
the production are assessed for the characteristic range of inter-annual and seasonal time scales. Correlation
has been estimated between the variable production value and the main hydrometeorological
processes that determine its variability in the Baltic Sea. Using the spectral analysis, we have estimated
and mapped amplitudes of the inter-annual and seasonal fluctuations of production. The spatial and
temporal structure of the seasonal primary production fluctuations in the Baltic Sea is dealt with. The
annual fluctuations and the semi-annual fluctuations are shown to reach their peaks in the region over
the sea at about the same time. Estimates of the coherence and phase difference between the primary
production change and the full flow divergence of currents are obtained in terms of the cross wavelet
analysis. The most stable estimates (with coherence 0.8–0.9) are found at the periods of seasonal fluctuations.
The phase lag of the primary production change relative to the full flow divergence are then
about 3–6 months. Refs 14. Figs 8. Tables 3.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper deals with urban new media — computer technologies in forms of applications, programs,
and some arrays of scripts, which automatically create actions or provide some complex services for
different social groups in a city. It is assumed that processes of development, implementation and
investigation of urban new media are in a situation of controversy since nobody knows on what principles
they should be based upon and what aims to pursue. In this article we offer three logics (A. Mol),
ratios and mutual mechanisms of affinities that are proper to some practices, that we can discern in
the current process of development of urban new media. The communal logic aims at association of
people and creating a shared platform for communication and knowing some aspects of cities. The
critical logic aims to dissociate and sift certain groups of people from population as whole and make
profit out of users. Finally, cosmopolitical logic (I. Stengers) is associated with intention to include
many heterogeneous actors into process of discussion and making decisions for creating “sense” of
some urban space or aspect. In the conclusion, we ponder upon how the aforementioned logics could
be implemented practically to spur the communication between the authorities and publics in Russian
monotowns. Refs 29.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper introduces the concept of intellectual competencies as patterns of individual cognitive performance,
which manifest themselves while solving cognitive tasks and finding solutions. With the use
of in-depth semi-structured interviews conducted while participants (N = 15) solved cognitive tasks of
two types, we revealed and informally described 7 intellectual competencies: 1) transformative efforts;
2) feedback receptiveness; 3) ability to compose conceptual gestalts based on past experiences; 4) simultaneous
development of several alternative solutions; 5) insistence of cognitive attempts; 6) broad
intellectual scope; 7) active information acquisition. It was shown that 4 of these competencies (feedback
receptiveness, ability to compose conceptual gestalts based on past experiences, simultaneous development
of several alternative solutions, broad intellectual scope) manifest themselves on the same
level when solving different cognitive tasks. Intellectual competencies might be an alternative to existing
approaches to intelligence studies as they integrate mental and personal experience, mediate actualization
of one’s mental resources, and determine the subject’s intellectual efficiency. Refs 31. Table 1.

value:
The article gives a comprehensive analysis of the situation prevailing in the area of labour relations on
domestic industrial enterprises from the viewpoint of the necessity of the establishment in Russia of a
civilized social institution of wage labour. Based on the results of sociological research at the Institute of Social Technologies of Samara University (monitoring studies of the socio-labour sphere of the
industry of the Volga region in 2000–2013) changes in the field of labour relations in recent years are
here presented. The studies were conducted annually in the monitoring mode for 10–15 industrial enterprises
of the Volga region. In total between 700 and 1,000 respondents were surveyed each year. The
author makes recommendations regarding the need for modernization of key institutional elements
of the social institution of wage labour: collective agreements, trade unions, the negotiation process,
formal labour standards. Emphasis is also given to the need to adjust social policies to enhance the role
of the employee in the company and enhance workers participation in the formation of labour relations.
Real social partnerships should be advanced as the tool of work motivation: higher wages, better
working conditions, high competence and labour discipline. Refs 37. Tables 8.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article presents results of research conducted in the Russian megalopolis of Yekaterinburg. The
opinion of citizens of the Russian megalopolis about the current state of Russia, as well as the opinion
of the possible duration of the economic crisis in the country has been investigated in this study. Much
space is devoted to the social adaptation strategies of the respondents. The research objectives are to
explore the problems addressing social adaptation of the population of large cities to the economic
crisis in contemporary Russia and to explore the opinion of this population on the duration of the
economic crisis in Russia. The research methodology combines qualitative and quantitative methods.
Empirical basis of the study includes a series of in-depth interviews and a questionnaire carried out in
2016. The study has revealed that the vast majority of respondents in all age categories are not satisfied with their lives and they believe that Russia is in a deep economic crisis. A basic obstacle preventing
people from acquiring feeling of satisfaction of their life is their poor financial situation. At the same
time respondents note that the socio-economic situation continued to worsen steadily in the second
half of 2015. The study has determined two strategies of social adaptation of this population to an
economic crisis. They are a cost reduction strategy related to the satisfaction of basic human needs and
a mobilization potential strategy. The vast majority of respondents use the first strategy. Using these
strategies allows the population of a megalopolis to provide some adaptive measures to the current
economic situation. Refs 27. Tables 4.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article presents the development of an analytical model of comparative sociological research of
shoemaking crafts in two modern megapolises — Mumbai (India) and Saint-Petersburg (Russia). The
model is the basis for further empirical research into artisans (shoemakers) from different social environments.
Attention is focused on the similarities and differences between shoe practices of two cities
and two cultures. Formation of such a context is due to the theoretical comprehension of everyday
practices, their conditions of production in shoemaking facilities in the Russian and Indian megacities,
taking into account the specifics of orders, especially the institutional structures and networking
among shoemakers. The authors consider that the similarity of shoemaking practices examined, of their social
context and of structures, is reflected in the resemblance of the meanings and professional strategies’
in shoemakers’ procedures. Initially a comparative model of social structures of Russia and India is
proposed. The mode of capitalist development in both countries is analyzed, and the general and
specific tendencies are identified. On that basis, a comparison of the institutional structures between
the cities of St. Petersburg and Mumbai is made. The peculiarities of historical development and
social role of cities in Russia and in India are pinpointed. The multilevel system of comparing the
key social settings of the cities’ institutional environment is provided. Finally, the authors attempt
a systematic comparison of social contexts of communicative practices among shoemakers in both
cities. Shoemaking practices of two cities are undertaken with different consumer demand and with
different cultural attitudes. A significant portion of the shoemaking craft on the streets of both cities
is done by newcomers or migrants that use their local ethno-social networks for labour practices. The
diversity of technical equipment between shoemakers of St-Petersburg and Mumbai is discovered.
An original model is developed that serves as a basis for empirical studies of artisans (shoemakers) in
different social environments. Refs 31. Figs 4.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The problem of studying subjective well-being (as people’s subjective estimation of their own life) is
one of the principle topics in social studies for quality of life. Foreign sociology traditionally emphasizes
the analysis of spiritual and religious determinants of people’s subjective well-being. In Russian
sociology, the given area is still under-investigated. The article represents the discussion of the possibility
for sociological study of subjective well-being of believers, including its cognitive component; i.e.
people’s satisfaction with various aspects of their life. Empirical research through a survey was aimed
at comparing the peculiarities of respondents’ estimations of their own life in a cross-confessional
perspective (Orthodoxy and Protestantism). As to the Orthodox group, additionally the interconnection
between the level of religiosity (based on the criterion of religious behavior) and subjective
well-being was analyzed. As it turned out, the respondents are mostly satisfied with those spheres of
life that are connected with interpersonal relations inside and outside the community. It was found
that the most significant components of subjective well-being, that affect people’s general estimation
of their life, are represented by satisfaction with relations with people of opposite sex, clergy, family
members, as well as satisfaction with the material well-being, personal qualities and leisure. The exposed
cross-confessional peculiarities of people’s estimation of their own life can be interpreted in the
context of both cultural/confessional causes and psychological/social factors, which requires further
investigation. In the two groups of the Orthodox, categorized according to the level of their churchattendance,
the subjective evaluation of life generally depends on various indicators that characterize
satisfaction with particular spheres of life. This finding point at the existence of not only Protestant
and Orthodox profiles of well-being, but also the profile connected with religious behaviour inside the
Orthodox group. In general, the level of church-attendance is positively connected with satisfaction
with various spheres of life and common estimation of one’s own life. The obtained results can be used
for developing or clarification of methodological tools and further empirical studies of the quality of
life of believers. Refs 29. Tables 8.

value:
The experience of including the population into the market relations system and transformation of
social services in neoliberal conditions are summarized in the framework of this article. The main
problems encountered in the transition period from the Soviet paternalistic model of social welfare to
a neoliberal model of current social services are analyzed. The changes in the social sphere are considered
due to the adoption of the new Federal Law N 442 from 28.12.2013 “On the basis of social services
for citizens in the Russian Federation”, which confirmed the right of private entrepreneurs to provide
social services to population on a par with the state structures. The advantages and disadvantages
of implemented neo-liberal transformations are discussed. The expected advantages include citizens’
motivation towards overcoming problems in their independent life, the increasing number and diversity
of services provided to citizens associated with the development of social business. The noted
disadvantages are marked as hasty reforms, a large number of unaccounted factors in the process of
their implementation, the lack of experience in social entrepreneurship in Russia, and unavailability
of most of the Russian population to fit into the market, as well as a high cost of private services, and a
significant number of risks for social business itself. Refs 18.

Using the method of analysis of early childhood memories is an valuable source of unconscious information

moment. Empirical data on the specifics of early childhood memories in people with different dominant
maladaptive schemas are extremely limited. The aim of the research was to study early childhood
memories of adults with different early maladaptive schemas. The detailed content analysis of early
childhood memories enabled identifying the characteristic features of adult memories with different
predominant maladaptive schemas. It was revealed that the environment and experience characteristic
of certain early maladaptive schemas and schema domains were reflected in early childhood memories.

The article presents the results of a scientific study which had been conducted by the author in the
capital of Greece for five years between 2011 and 2016 in two phases. The aim of the sociological analysis
is the representation of irregular immigration as an autonomous independent social phenomenon.
On the basis of the endogenous and exogenous socio-economic conditions of its own reproduction
some forms of immigration transformed into the shadow market, actively cooperating with other markets,
legal and illegal, for example the real estate market, money laundering, drug trafficking, etc.. As
a result of such activities the migrant’s shadow market successfully includes and expands in the space
of the Greek capital. The results of empirical studies reveal the real situation in the segment of undocumented
immigration and the smuggling of migrants through the analysis of illegal markets, their reproduction
and propagation mechanisms. The author also examines the impact of immigration on the
shady legal economy, which is embodied in the growth of crime, insecurity and general urban blight.
In addition, the text presents a critical analysis of the current state policy in the field of immigration
and possible exit from the current crisis. Refs 75.

As it has been demonstrated in a series of studies, the negative priming effect (NP) that shows itself in
slowdown of the reaction to a target stimulus could be observed after presenting an identical or related
prime. The same conditions however are typical for the manifestation of the positive priming effect.
The NP manifestation depends on a number of factors, and many of those which are necessary for the
NP occurrence in one circumstance lose their value in another. We propose that the number of contradictions
could be explained if we assume that independent processes lie in the basis of the negative
and positive priming and jointly affect the reaction time. Refs 43.

name them, give their description, list quarries. The sarcophagus is cut of Proterozoic quartzite from
Russia. Balustrade, gallery and sculptures in crypt are made of Carrara marble. White-black marble
breccias «Marble Grand Antique» and green ophicalcite («Brèche Napoléon») are applied to construct
other tombs and columns in the altar, and color limestone and marbles from different places of France
(Pyrenees, Alps, Languedoc, and North France) are also used. Quartzite was quarried at the Onega
Lake in Russia by J. F. Bujatti. In Paris, first time in the history of techniques, details of the sarcophagus
of Napoleon were cut and polished with use of steam machinery. Refs 11. Figs 7.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This paper reviews the title complexes of the title pages in German travel literature of the 18th and 19th
century from the viewpoint of paratextuality theory by G. Genette and theory of the strong position by
I. V. Arnold. Structural dynamics of the title development is most apparent in its steady size reduction.
Extremely complicated titles are typical for the first half of the 18th century. They look like annotated
content of the whole book rather than its laconic title (up to 20 title lines or up to 100 words and more).
By the end of the 19th century the title complex included only the name of an author (or a publisher)
and the actual short title with a toponym denoting the place of the destination. The title declaration
has an increasingly differentiated character, forming reader’s specific expectations even before reading
the book. Along with the traditional Reise / Reisebeschreibung (travel / travel description), the new
genre/forms are seen: Beyträge (papers), Bericht (report), Briefe (letters), Darstellungen (descriptions),
Erinnerungen (memoirs), Gemälde (pictures) and Nachrichten (news). Certainly, informative function
of the title dominates in travel literature, but the occurrence of other functions can also be observed.
Thus, attractive function emerges in the 18th century, it manifests in drawing readership’s attention by
the promising title. Expressive-appellative function is brought to light in the 19th century and often is
conveyed by an epigraph revealing the author’s position and psychologically preparing the reader for
the content. Both the author and the publisher may be the creators of a title. Refs 19.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Yu. S. Maslov attracted researchers’ attention to the paradox related to the verbs like prygnut’ (jump).
These verbs are perceived as instantaneous, punctual and at the same time they go together with the
word medlenno (slowly). The author shows that the evidence of linguistic intuition can be reconciled
with language data by introducing the seme ‘process of non-standard (short) duration’ and accepting
the idea that perfectivity is able to conceal the most essential feature of a process, namely its duration.
The suggested solution is intrinsically tied to the necessity to differentiate between homonymous
imperfectives like prygat’1 and prygat’2. One of them is characterized by the seme ‘process of standard
duration’, whereas the other has the seme ‘process of non-standard (short) duration’. The author substantiates
her perspective with both linguistic evidence and thorough analysis of the literature on the
issue. Refs 44. Figs 3.
