dc.description.abstract

value:
The Training Compensation Mechanism was established by the FIFA as a decision regarding
financial balance between football clubs in cases of transfer of players. Training Compensation has an
obligatory character and clubs should pay it under two conditions which are exclusively concerned with
transfers and are set out in Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players, particularly, in Article
20 and in Annex 4 of these Regulations. In spite of clearly, transparent provisions, football clubs often
tend not to pay compensation and appeal to the disproportional amount of training compensation.
In the present article the authors analyze case law of the FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber (January-
December 2015) and engage in a comparative review that determines the clubs’ weakest arguments,
and why a few of clubs arguments were approved by the Chamber. Refs 5.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) is a progressive instrument for regulation of the numerous types of
use of marine areas. In principle, it is understood as “a marine equivalent to terrestrial spatial planning
which has been used to rationally develop, for example, urban areas, but also to protect environmental
and cultural values”. Many countries such as Australia, Belgium, Germany or the Netherlands already
exercise Marine Spatial Planning. In Russia, however, the development of this instrument is presently
in the initial phase. Even if the Russian Federation has begun drawing up a Federal Law on Maritime
Spatial Planning in 2014, the theoretical concept of MSP is not yet widespread amongst Russian
scholars. The current interruption of work on the law seems to put the topic into the background of the
legislative agenda. However, in the light of global sustainable development, it still appears important
to put the legislative process forward. In this context, the following article will give an overview about
the meaning of Marine Spatial Planning and compare the legal and methodological aspects of MSP
in Russia and Germany. The German experience in working out and implementing marine spatial
plans can serve as an orientation for the establishment of a Marine Spatial Planning System in Russia.
Finally, the article will summarize, how planning of marine areas — not exclusively in Russia and
Germany — can contribute to a sustainable development of the oceans, seas and marine resources.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The author gives a definition of discretion as a one of the key institutes in administrative law. Discretion
is a legal conception, used in executive state bodies and courts. The executive body must have borderlines
of discretion if it has power of discretion and this may be a matter to the lawsuit or administrative
revision made by the same executive body or highest executive body. The highest body may have
its own opinion or may give another point of view if there is no doubt of the legality of the impugned
decision. In particular, it means that an independent review must be provided of the expediency of
the executive body`s decision. This formalized the main problem, because administrative courts have
a right only to verify legal aspects in the decisions of executive power but not the expediency of its
decisions. As part of the process in the administrative court, verification of discretionary decisions is
limited only to testing the existence of one of the types of marginal discrepancies, rather than checking
whether an administrative act or refusal to publish or not issuing an administrative act is illegal. In the
following, the author gives a detailed description of the types of discretion and what errors of discretion
exist. In conclusion, the article demonstrates arguments in favor of the existence of discretion, as
there are doubts about the susceptibility of decisions with discretion with respect to corruption. Refs 2.

The Code of Criminal Procedure, art. 170, part. 4 requires the investigator to clarify the purpose of

result of the investigative action. Understanding of the purpose of the investigative action establishes
conditions for the exercise of rights and legitimate interests for each its participants. In the process of
production of the pre-trial investigation action and after its conclusion each participant is given the
opportunity to judge whether the process has or has not complied with their rights and legitimate
interests by comparing the achieved result with the claimed purpose. Without a clear understanding of the purpose of the investigative steps this possibility becomes a mere formality. In this regard it is
proposed to make additions in the texts of articles 164 and 166 of the Code of Criminal Procedure,

The article discusses the methodological issues of design practice with a focus on the paradoxical
nature of design consciousness and the ability to retain rational control over the creative process. The
author represents the methodology of semiotic discursive modelling as a way to fine-tune one’s consciousness.
Special attention is drawn to the peculiarities of simultaneous thinking. The methodology
of semiotic discursive modelling activates simultaneous thinking, develops it and helps the designer
implement the concept by developing logograms that have no preferable order of reading and present
themselves as complete entities. Image seems to precede a thought and thus makes it possible. Thought
and its graphic expression swap places. This is how the designer should think in order to see the image
that expresses the concept: without trying to configure the image in advance, he or she should suggest
graphic figures that may be compatible with the interpretation of his or her idea. The methodology of
semiotic discursive modelling boosts the ability to code thoughts graphically. The author compares design
production with development of logograms and demonstrates how the methodology of semiotic
discursive modelling can activate and enhance simultaneous thinking. Refs 5. Figs 3.

The reasons for the author’s censorship of texts are considered here; they are related to stage versions of
the play both on Broadway in the legendary Group Theatre and off-Broadway. Also, the discrepancies
and abridgments of Soviet texts and their translations are discussed. This analysis of the print editions

In the Review of the Book by associate professor Yu. S. Mylnikova authors note that this is the first
comprehensive, logically completed study of women’s legal status in the China history (7th–13th centuries) conducted on the basis of legislative sources in Russian Sinology. The author of the Book managed
to overcome the stereotyped idea of the complete lack of rights of women in traditional China,
concluding that the none-rights status granted to women in the Tang-Song era is unprecedented in
the history of Imperial China. The review contains some key provisions and conclusions on the main
issues discussed in the Book, relevant, first of all, from the point of view of lawyers studying the Law
of China. These are issues of reflecting the women’s legal status in legislative and judicial acts. At the
same time, the women’s legal status in the Book is analyzed in the whole variety of their social roles
in Medieval China: daughter, wife, mother, stepmother, widow, concubine, nun, singer, servant slave.
Serious attention is paid to the woman as a victim and subject of responsibility in sexual and family
crimes. The review emphasises the relevance of the monograph from the standpoint of the legal sciences
and their teaching. Refs 2.

sculptor Georgy Frangulyan whose works play a significant role in the formation of ideas about
the latest trends in the art culture of Russia. For comparison, examples of European and American
sculpture of recent decades are presented including the works of Henry Moore, Alfred Hrdlicka, and
Richard Serra. The theme of monuments and memorials is revealed in the context of artistic problems,
urban situation, socio-political tendencies. Monumental sculpture is understood as a symptom of the

The authors analyze the problems of using so-called legal examinations in various types of legal proceedings

theory and in practice, of the fact that legal knowledge is not special in the sense of any procedural law,
this issue is highly controversial in the literature: all authors supply their denial of the use of expert
opinions and legal experts with such reservations as to make its negation unequivocal. Judicial practice
is also controversial and varies considerably in different branches of justice: the same issues may be
considered by different courts as legal, or they may not apply. The authors come to the conclusion that
it is inadmissible and harmful for justice to put before the experts and specialists in any legal issues:
they clutter up legal procedures with excessive actions and documents and entail a rise in the cost of
justice. Refs 4.

In the article the legal institutes “legal advantage” and “a legislative exception” are exposed to analysis.
From theoretico-legal and branch positions elements of their unity, distinction, interaction and contradiction
are investigated and reasoned through. Attention is drawn to the fact that, unfortunately, in
a number of scientific works the distinction between such categories of the right and means of regulation
of the public relations as “advantage” and “exception” has not been carried out at all. Without
sharing similar views, and starting from a correlation of advantages with similar properties, marks of
general legal categories, iterating or identical moments are brought to light by the author. These are
also abstracted from the specifics of each concrete type of advantage in law: immunity, exemption,
privilege, etc., distinguishing their particular characteristics and identifying what is common among
them. On the basis of this, we then trace the tool of communication of categories that prompt conflict
between them and examine contradictory provisions. Refs 18.

provincial scene of the early 20th century, the capital’s theatrical realities and others. Leaving the stage,
Curry has settled in Moscow and actively attended the premiere in Opera and drama, especially in the

dc.description.abstract

value:
In the paper, we discuss the consequences of the phenomenological reduction introduced by E. Husserl
who intended to apply it for refuting relativism and skepticism, which were the prevailing trends
in the Western European philosophy of his time. According to him, what was true was so absolutely
and regardless of any circumstances. To discover such truths, he proposed phenomenological reduction
which he regarded a modernized Cartesian method of doubt.
Like Descartes, Husserl believed that the absolute truth has to be indubitable. The phenomenological
reduction demonstrated that only the existence of the transcendental ego is indubitable. This
result corresponds to Descartes’s idea of his sum cogito indubitableness. However, unlike Descartes,
Husserl took into account that cogito has an intentional structure: every act of consciousness is directed
at an object. Husserl called the objects of acts of consciousness intentional objects, or phenomena.
The world of phenomena is included in the content of the transcendental ego and is immanent to it. The phenomenal world “duplicates” the transcendental world of the natural objects, but, unlike
the latter, exists indubitably. Thus, Husserl came to the conclusion that the phenomenal world has an
apodictic existence while the existence of the world of nature is only problematic.
But what about other egos? Husserl believed that they had a transcendental existence independent
of sum cogito. In his opinion, this is evidenced by the special appresentation in in the composition
of sum cogito, which is an analogous apperception. According to Husserl, sum cogito together with
other egos forms a community of monads, in which it is a minor central monad. However, we argue
that the analogous apperception is incapable of giving an obvious and unquestionable testimony that
other egos exist transcendently. The result is that the phenomenological reduction leads to a kind of
transcendental solipsism, when the central monad has an apodictic existence, and all peripheral monads
are only problematic. Refs 11.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to intellectual evolution of the Hungarian philosopher and ideologue Georg
Lukács (1885–1971) whose theoretical and political development reveals the character of the 20th
century in a special way. In the first part of the article, the author, starting from the fact that Lukács
was awarded the Goethe Prize in Frankfurt am Main (1970), analyzes the antithetical origins of his
philosophical position. The views of the thinker were formed under the influence of the sociologic
vision of history and the concept of the generic forces of Marx. However, inspired by German culture
Lukács turned to the Goethe’s ideal of the creative personality, in order to overcome the methodological
one-sidedness of the Marxist image of a man oriented towards the socialized concept of labor.
In the second part of the article, the author focuses on the hidden source of Lukács’ position:
Nietzsche’s metaphysics of power. He puts forward the thesis that the formation of Lukács’ revolution
has been fed from the earliest times by the concepts of the philosophy of life. The subsequent
involvement of the thinker in the ideological circle of the revolution and civil war weakened
Nietzsche’s influence. However, it can be traced in Lukács’ interpretation of culture as the creativity
of the proletariat’s liberated forces. The author raises the question of the extent of Lukács’ personal responsibility for violence, which the thinker understands as “the path to the rise and freedom of
culture”, going exclusively through dictatorship. The central theme of the fourth part of the article is
the ideological influence exerted by Lukács during the so-called “1968 revolution” in Germany, as well
as a critical moral assessment of this influence. Refs 40.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article reviews the conflictive nature of corruption qua a systematically organized social phenomenon.
The authors arrive at the conclusion that the roots of corruption lie in the social order itself
which is being eroded and disrupted by conflict. At the same time corruption, recognized as some
kind of a means which destroys social order, becomes equivalent to conflict. The authors emphasize
the conflict studies paradigm’s heuristic detecting the potential of corrupt relations to disrupt society
to a point beyond which it cannot reproduce itself as a solid and stable organism. The authors demonstrate
in the article that the conceptualization of the interdisciplinary method of conflict detection
and localization is considered to be the most sought-after method for the state which has declared war
against corruption. The article pays special attention to the main points at issue of the interdisciplinary
analysis of the corruption phenomenon and research approaches to its examination.
Moreover the article makes clear that the economic subjects’ interaction may be denoted by the
concept of “competition”, while in the social sphere this interaction may be denoted by the concept
of “strife”, in political science it may be called “political competition”, “political tussle”, “crime”, “opposition”,
“protest”, “uprising”, “revolution”. Which conceptual denomination is acquired by the mean
of interconnection depends on the ultimate sphere in which this interconnection terminates while it
takes various shapes as well.
In the article the authors analyze corruption as a process of the transformation of an activity and
its results into a commodity which has a “uncommodified” nature as a result of a joint, non-contractual,
illegal exchange of resources between officials and others. The authors substantiate the necessity of
interpreting the term corruption through the lens of a goods/money relationship, by a process which
comprises the entire total of social bonds and relations and in first place; i.e., property relations.
Also, the authors put a special focus on the corrupt relations with respect to relations where public
commons are turned into individual private property whereby the official only passes to a private
actor something that does not belong to him ipso jure. Refs 29.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article considers how the concept of woman’s subjectivity brought into focus in feminist critics
of the 20th century was evoked in non-classical dance of the 20th and 21st centuries. The authors’
goal is to prove that artistic experiences of modern dance, followed by contemporary dance, became
the productive form of woman’s writing, the most fruitful “location” where woman’s subjectivity
was manifested, from the feminist theorists’ point of view. The authors saw their principal task as
examining the history of the interest that outstanding choreographers of the 20th century developed
in seeking woman’s subjectivity “buried” in the body. The methodological frameworks integrated
historical and typological, philosophical, culturological, deconstructive, and gender analyses. The
article distinguishes several major trends, they are: the Delsarte’s American studies of expressive
body acting of the suffragist epoch (Loïe Fuller, Isadora Duncan, Mod Allan), German expressionist
dance, American modern dance and the Russian rhythmic and plastic dance of the first half of the
20th century (Marie Wiegmann, Martha Graham); the European Dance Theatre movement of the
1970s, that was the period of the second wave of feminism (Pina Bausch). It is stated that at the
close of the 20th century and the early 21st century the brightest examples of the discussed theme are
the artistic works deconstructing the concept of “woman’s subjectivity”. The analysis of the world
famous performance “Co(te)lette” made by Anna van den Broek, a Dutch choreographer, presents a
clear illustration of this observation. Then, using the example of creative works by Marie Chouinard
(Canada), Mats Ek (Sweden), Matthew Bourne (Great Britain), the authors show how the plastic
discourse of contemporary dance is gradually transferred from the area of feminist rhetoric to the
field studying various gender perversions. In conclusion, as the authors stance, the example of Ivo
Dimchev performances demonstrates that in contemporary dance the theme of woman’s subjectivity
blurs and the attention focuses on the man with “strange’ (queer) gender identity, with floating
unstable uncertain feeling of belonging to being. Refs 19.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article is about the hermeneutical tradition in Russian culture of the 19th and 20th centuries.
The main direction in this tradition was biblical, philology and legal hermeneutics. Hermeneutics
is one of most influential traditions in modern philosophy including the conceptions of such figures
as F. Schleiermacher, W. Dilthey, M. Heidegger, H.-G Gadamer, and P. Ricoeur. The general preconditions
causing their emergence, and also the similar phenomena in other cultures (Germany especially).
The central reality for the hermeneutic tradition is the reality of language. Language is a main
means of human communication and a certain way of passing on some social experience from one
generation to another. The paper researches various problems of philosophical knowledge: ontology,
social philosophy, aesthetics. The author examines the relevant aspects of philosophical hermeneutics
by V. V. Rozanov (1856–1919). There are revealed similarities and differences between the Rozanov’s
concept and other authors (Russian and European) in the article. The author shows the inclusion of
Rozanov’s hermeneutical conception in Russian cultural tradition. The author points out that these
concepts should be attributed to Aristotelian philosophical currents. Of course, Rozanov was the most
important figure this tradition in Russia. Refs 14.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is based on the studies of the archive of Vladimir N. Beneshevich, Byzantinist, Paleographist,
and canon law historian who was repressed in 1938. His archive contains documents, which provides
us a possibility to get an insider’s view on many important events of the first years after the Revolution
(1917–1922): the autocephaly of the Church of Georgia, reforms of the Russian Church, and the
shaping of the ‘renewal’ movement inside it (‘Obnovlenie’), and the attitude of Christian intelligentsia
to state ecclesiastical politics. Beneshevich took an active part in the religious life of the country
during the first post-revolutionary years. In 1917, he was send on an official journey to Tiflis by the
Provisional Government as a Provisional Representative on matters related to the Church of Georgia;
he participated in some meetings of the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church. Copies of
messages from ecclesiastic persons are of special interest, as well as anonymous writings on the topic of
the Church reforms, and Christian attitude toward the laic and ecclesiastic powers. These documents
are the focus of attention for the first time. The article is an attempt to reconstruct Beneshevich’s
perception of the ecclesiastic life of the epoch. In the appendix to the article documents from the funds
of the Saint Petersburg Branch of the RAS Archive (archive of Vladimir N. Beneshevich) are provided.
With the help of these documents, we can try to recreate the religious life of the years between 1917 and
1920. Refs 11.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article, based on archival documents, shows the role of Professor E. G. Kagarov (1882–1942), an
outstanding ethnographer and historian of religion, in creating the theoretical and methodological
grounds for the expositions of the Museum of the History of Religion of the Academy of Sciences
(1932). Kagarov was of similar minded to V. G. Bogoraz and was his close collaborator in the creation
of the Museum as a new academic institution. Of course, Kagarov attracted Bogoraz not only by
his encyclopaedic knowledge, but also by using in his works new methodological approaches in
comparative religious studies as it was rapidly developing in Europe and Russia at that time. Kagarov’s
views on mythology and religion, on approaches to the interpretation of sources, as well as on what
could serve as a source for the study of ancient religions, differed significantly from the generally
accepted ones and went beyond the narrow textual studies accepted in philological tradition. His
appeal to the comparative method, the involvement in folklore and ethnography data for the analysis
of ancient religion, was innovative for the domestic science. Kagarov believed that, beginning in the
second half of the 19th century, in Western Europe the history of religions became an independent
discipline, free from confessional frameworks. In Soviet Russia that academic science used “economic
materialism” as a method of historical knowledge, treating religion as a reflection of production
relations, conditioning the social and political system. The article is accompanied by the publication of
the annotated list of works on the history of religion by E. G. Kagarov from the B. G. Bogoraz collection
in the St. Petersburg branch of the Archive of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Refs 8.

value:
This essay discusses different conceptions of identity and its relevance for conflict studies, in the
analysis of complex political actors such as political organizations for example. The author presents
two main theoretical traditions in the identity research, some important theories of identity existing
in sociology and social psychology, as well as some derived theories concerning several relevant
aspects.
The essay examines the construction, function and sources of social and political identity from
the viewpoint of sociology and social psychology, particularly in the aspect of arising and resolution
of identity conflicts. The conflict studies research traditionally approaches the conflict already arisen;
this essay however focuses on the mechanism and sources of the conflict as such, both at the micro-
and macro levels. It concerns also conflicts caused by radical socio-political transformations and
discusses some ways of their resolution in terms of identity change concept. It emphasizes further the
symbolic nature of each social and political identity. The author proposes a concept of identity for complex political actors based on theoretical
principles of sociology, social psychology, organizational theory, political culture studies and semiotics.
Each identity is viewed as a control system with several components that lead to social and particularly
political behaviour of complex political actors including behaviour in a conflict. Refs 23.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article analyzes the role of university education in the development of science and the transformation
of society. The textual basis of the study relies on central points of J. G. Fichte’s project of creation of the
University which is represented in his text, as yet untranslated into Russian, “Deduzierter Plan einer
zu Berlin zu errichtenden höhern Lehranstalt, die in gehöriger Verbindung mit einer Akademie der
Wissenschaften stehe”. For the reconstruction of Fichte’s position, the following problems are solved
in the article: 1) The concept of philosophy as a Science of Knowledge is established; 2) Its influence
on the understanding of the property of scientific investigation in the 19th century; 3) The changes
in the form and content of university education. According to the German philosopher further social
development is results from the release of science to a new level of scholarship. The latter is impossible
without radical transformation of the scientific and educational life of universities. The essence of
Fichte’s proposals relates to changes in the teaching of philosophy. Philosophy is addressed to students
of all disciplines and should be taught in the university to a greater extent. Therefore, it is necessary
to change the method of teaching philosophy. Instead of presenting historical amounts of information
it is necessary to demonstrate the genesis of scientific problems and methods. Thus science, reaching
clarity about its nature and tasks can become the decisive factor of social progress. The author stresses that measures proposed by the great idealist of the 19th century have a significant degree of relevance
for the present stage of development of science and university education. Refs 6.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to analyzing the possibility for Aristotle to solve the version of Meno’s Paradox
that threatens his project of building scientific knowledge. The author has shown that in order to
implement the project one must to provide the possibility of search for a species, which is previously
known to fall under a given genus. As he has established, the analyzing species version of Meno’s
Paradox differs from the version Aristotle discusses in Analitica Posteriora, I, 1. As the author shows,
it is quite natural to treat species in the species version as abstract objects in the sense of E. Zalta’s
theory of abstract objects. He argues that the holistic approach to the object of knowledge, probably
supported by Plato and Speusippus, makes it impossible to acquire a step-by-step knowledge about the
species that fall under the given genus.
However, as the author shows, Aristotle has no reason to support a holistic approach. Nevertheless,
the article demonstrates that the search for species as abstract objects faces other difficulties. First,
it is meaningless to search for such an abstract object that encodes a generic property: it already exists
exactly as described. Secondly, any abstract object encoding any properties will satisfy the search condition
if the properties encoded by it are supplemented with the search condition. Such non-selectivity
of the finding, again, makes all the process of searching meaningless. Therefore, the author сomes to the conclusion that Meno’s Paradox cannot be considered as conclusively resolved by Aristotle.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The author presents parallels between the views of N. F. Fedorov on the trinity of the library,
archive, museum and the essential similarity of these social groups. The idea of N. F. Fedorov about
the museum (archive, library) as the “council of persons” is interpreted as the notion of “museum
(archive, library) — a social institution”, the structure of which the author represents in the form of
the system of two interacting and interdependent elements: subject of propose and subject of demand.
The subject of propose is the creator (manufacturer) of some product; the subject of the demand is
the consumer.
The structural identity of the notions “archive”, “library”, “museum” as defined by a schematic of
their content displays the basic similarity of these institutions that creates a (archival, library, museum)
document that is particular only to them and provides it to the use of the public. The similarity of
archives, libraries, museums determines their modern convergence and the ability to exist in a unified
organizational form, denoted by a new term “lambrary”. The archival science, library science and
museology, studying the communication that is carried out in the archives, libraries and museums,
they can be combined in a single classification field under one name. Refs 11.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Out of many different strategies in the philosophy of the early 20th century the author compares
two completely different philosophies: G. H. Mead’s social behaviorism and E. Husserl’s transcendental
phenomenology with respect to the self-arising problem. For Mead, the initial point of his theory is
the social conduct or person’s behavior, whereas for Husserl, the life of the isolated transcendental
Ego is of greatest value. The author emphasizes, though the main ideas of both philosophers have
different methodological grounds, one finds, that the matter of primary importance for them. This is
the question of who is an executor of the social acts (Mead) and the transcendental phenomenological
act (Husserl)? Through an analysis of the main ideas of both philosophers (‘I’ and ‘Me’ as principles
of the subject by Mead, and intentionality, time analysis, and intersubjectivity by Husserl) the author
demonstrates, firstly, how the question of self-identity is solved in both conceptions, and, secondly,
how to argue the advantages of phenomenology. The article leads to the conclusion: methodologically
Mead’s social behaviorism is relativistic, as far as his theory of subjectivity depends on the social
context. Husserl’s method, despite its complexity, offers a clear subject structure and therefore can be
regarded as more productive for the theory of self. Refs 15.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article provides an analysis of the journal Voprosy filosofii in the era of the 1990s. This
journal is compared with other philosophical journals published in Russia at that time. While it is
methodologically problematic to do a one-to-one comparison of 1990s issues of Voprosy filosofii
and independent philosophy journals, a comparison of the two can offer some interesting (but not
unexpected) conclusions. What is interesting about the data from Voprosy filosofii is not what it tells
us about Voprosy filosofii itself, but how it can help us better appreciate the diversity among 1990s
independent philosophical journals. Some of these journals published mostly scholarly texts; others
included high percentages of historical texts and translations. However, most saw themselves as
new vehicles for a new discipline. They crafted distinctive intellectual identities for themselves, be it
underground philosophy in St. Petersburg (Stupeni), phenomenology (Logos), the history of Russian
philosophy (Nachala), or post-structuralism and postmodernism (Paralleli). Voprosy filosofii too
reacted to the new intellectual freedoms of the early 1990s, but its reaction was tempered by the fact
that it was a professional philosophical journal with a long history and, thus, far less flexibility in form
and content. Perhaps this is why independent philosophical journals made such a splash in the early
1990s, and perhaps this is why most of them would cease to exist by the time the new millennium hit.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Variation of the macroscopic parameters of carbon dioxide CO2 passing through a shock wave is studied.
The novelty of the work is in correct account of the bulk viscosity while calculating the structure of the
shock wave. In the shock front, translational, rotational and vibrational degrees of freedom are excited.
The transport processes are modeled using the kinetic theory of gases. The influence of the vibrational
degrees of freedom on the transport coefficients for different Mach numbers is studied in detail. The
system of Navier Stokes equations is solved numerically taking into account the viscous stress tensor
and the heat flux. The diagonal terms of the stress tensor contain the shear and bulk viscosity, and the
coefficient of thermal conductivity is determined by the contributions of translational and internal degrees
of freedom. The complex structure of vibrational modes of carbon dioxide molecules is taken into account
in calculating its specific heat and the adiabatic factor. It is shown that the adiabatic factor changes
noticeably when passing through a shock wave, therefore, the commonly used assumption of its constancy
significantly affects the accuracy of calculating the equilibrium values of the gas parameters behind the
shock wave. The distributions of the following parameters in the shock waves with Mach numbers 2 and 5
are found numerically: pressure, density, velocity, and temperature. The transport coefficients as functions
of the distance from the shock front are analyzed. It is found that taking into account the vibrational
degrees of freedom and bulk viscosity significantly affects the width of the shock front and the parameters
of the shock wave in polyatomic gases. For nitrogen, taking into account the bulk viscosity leads to a
significant improvement in the agreement between the calculated and experimental data on the density
measurement. Refs 7. Figs 7.

Using the analogue of the method of arbitrary constant variation or, in other words, the straightening
diffeomorphism, we reduce initial inequality to the simplest form x˙ 6 0 or x˙ > 0. Even in case when
the equation is considered in a region of existence and uniqueness, we encounter several theoretical and
practical problems. Firstly, there is the problem with the extension of solutions. Secondly, the general
solution may consist of several functions that are set on different intervals of the region of definition of
the equation, therefore the resulting inequality may have the solution, composed of different functions.
In this case there are problems of the connection of solutions. The situation becomes more complicated
when the equation has points of nonuniqueness. For such inequalities the method of comparison theorems
is not applicable. We show how to solve such inequality and obtain some estimates on its solutions for this
case. The result obtained in the article, provides unified approach to many theorems about differential
inequalities existing in literature. Refs 10.

value:
The flat double mathematical pendulum is considered, the loose end of which moves along an ellipse. In
the general case, the configuration space of this pendulum is two disjoint curves. It is possible to choose
parametres so that these curves intersect transversally. The observed trajectory of motion in this case
forms an angle. Moreover, there are special parameters in which the curves have a first-order tangency.
In this case, there is a geometric uncertainty  how the pendulum have to move after passing a singular
point.
It is shown that for the transversal case the inverse dynamic problem is not solvable, and the Lagrange
multipliers tend to infinity as they move to a singular point in the configuration space. The observed motion
is dynamically determined. The pendulum always moves from one branch of movement to another during
the passage of a singular point. A qualitative explanation of this effect is proposed. Refs 11. Figs 3.

The article deals with the problem of triaxial stabilization of an angular position of a rigid body. The
issue of the possibility of implementing a control system, in which dissipative torque tends to zero over
time, and the only remaining control torque is a restoring one is raised. The case of vanishing damping
considered in this paper is known as the most difficult one in the problem of analyzing the stability of
mechanical systems with a nonstationary parameter at dissipative forces. A lemma about a lower estimate
of the norm of the restoring torque in a neighborhood of the stabilized motion of a rigid body and two
theorems on the asymptotic stability of the stabilized motion of a body are proved. It is shown that the
sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability found in theorems are close to necessary ones. The results of
numerical modeling illustrating the conclusions obtained in the work are presented. Refs 23. Figs 2.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Nonstationary modes of direct and reverse passage through resonance of an unbalanced rotor equipped
with an imperfectly mounted ABB are investigated. Two mathematical models are considered. The first
one is the passage of the critical region with constant angular acceleration, and the second one is the
motion of the rotor under the action of a constant external torque. The study of the first model has shown
that the presence of the ABB has a significant negative effect on the process of direct passage through resonance, and the maximum amplitude of whirling in this case can exceed the maximum in the stationary
case. At the same time, in case of reverse resonance passage, the influence of the ABB is positive, and the
maximum amplitude of the whirling motion is much smaller than in the case of the direct passage. The
investigation of the influence of viscous damping in the ABB has shown that too small damping affects
negatively on the dynamics of the transient process, prolonging the time of the resonant oscillations of
the rotor until the moment of their disruption. The study of the processes of acceleration and deceleration
of the rotor according to the second model confirms the main conclusions obtained from the first model.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Theory of the figures of equilibrium was developed actively during XIX century when causes making the
form of observable massive celestial bodies (the Sun, planets, moons) almost ellipsoidal were discovered.
The existence of exactly ellipsoidal figures was established. The gravitational potential of such figures
can be presented by Laplace series. Its coefficients (Stokes constants In) are defined by a certain integral
operator. The general term of the series was found under condition that equidensits (surfaces of equal
density) are homothetic to the outer surface of the ellipsoid of revolution. First few terms were found
for several other mass distributions. Here we have found the general term of the series under condition
that equidensits are ellipsoids of revolution with an oblateness increasing from the centre to the surface.
Simple estimates and asymptotics of In are also found. It turned out that asymptotics depends on the
mean density, the density on the surface of the outer ellipsoid, and its oblateness only. Refs 12. Fig. 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The problem of estimating the error of quasi-Monte Carlo methods with the use of randomization is
considered. The well-known Koksma Hlawka inequality allows us to estimate the asymptotics for the
error, but it is not suitable for practical use in the process of computation, since calculation of the quantities occurring in it is a variation of the function and discrepancy of the sequence, is an extremely
time-consuming and impractical process. For this reason, there were numerous attempts to solve the
aforementioned problem with the probability theory methods. One common approach is to randomly
shift the points of the pseudo-random sequence. Cases of practical use of this approach are known, but
theoretically it has been scantily studied.
In this paper it is shown that estimates obtained this way are the upper estimates. A connection with
the theory of cubature formulas with one random node is established. The case of the Halton sequences
is considered in details. The Van der Corput transformation for sequence of natural numbers is analyzed,
with its help the Halton points are constructed. It is shown that the cubature formula with one free node
corresponding to the Halton sequence is exact for some class of step functions. The class is explicitly
described. The obtained results allow us to use the mentioned sequences more effectively for integral
calculation and extremum finding, and can also serve as a starting point for further theoretical studies in
the field of the quasi-random methods. Refs 6. Fig. 1. Table 1.

Current research results on processes of diffusion of a substance on the water surface are reported.
In particular, the influence of initial distribution unevenness of the diffusing substance on dynamic
characteristics of the pollution spot is studied. The pollution spot is a domain of the surface, in which the
concentration of the diffusing substance is greater than a certain value. Using Fourier’s method analytical
solutions of boundary value problems for the diffusion equation are found in special functions in unbounded
domains. For their analysis asymptotic and numerical methods are used. It has been proved that at
identical volumes of pollution its initial distribution on a surface has weak impact not only on the spot’s
lifetime, but also on its maximum radius. In case of uniform distribution of the substance the maximum
size of the pollution spot and the timepoint when it is reached are found. Refs 7. Figs 3. Table 1.

dc.description.abstract

value:
This article — the second part of a three-part series that reinterprets the “utopianism” of Russian
revolutionaries, especially the Bolsheviks—focuses on the evolving views of Lev Trotsky. Part 1 described
the basic theoretical approach: an alternative definition of the utopian imagination developed
after 1917 in the work of Ernst Bloch, Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, and others. In brief, this sees
utopia as a critical analysis of conventional constructions of reality, time, and the possible: as a critical
negation of that which merely is in the name of what should be, as a radical challenge to assumptions
about what is possible and impossible in the present, as a vision of time and history as containing the
possibility of an explosive “leap in the open air of history” (Benjamin). Utopian consciousness breaks
into the normativized world of knowledge and expectations about reality and possibility in history to
reveal the new and unexpected. This is utopia as radical epistemology, hermeneutics, and praxis. In
this article, the focus is on Lev Trotsky (the previous article considered Alexandra Kollontai and the
following concludes with Vladimir Mayakovsky), who, like all Marxists, denied he was a “utopian.”
Although Trotsky’s ideological positions and political power evolved and shifted, we see a variety of
expressions of a fundamental utopian imagination during the years from 1901 through 1921: his critique
of pessimism, his optimism about the power of unleashed popular passions, his insistence that
what was truly impossible was to imagine that the revolution could be “interrupted” (what he called
“непрерывная революция” and later “перманентная революция”), his faith in the coming of world
revolution, his conception of the historical place of violence for unleashing the possibilities of the
new—for allowing an explosive “leap in the open air of history.” Refs 40.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The economic situation in Russia before the overthrow of the monarchy appeared no worse than,
and in some respects was preferable to, that in other warring countries, according to objective indicators.
For example, the real incomes of peasants rose in 1914–1916 because of satisfactory harvests,
a decreased tax burden in real terms (thanks to inflation), reduced expenditures on alcohol, the mass sale of horses to meet the army’s needs, and the receipt of state benefits for the mobilized. Industrial
workers, too, experienced a slight increase in their real wages in 1914–1916. Only white-collar workers
and those in the professions were perceptibly worse off; their real income began to decline when the
war began. The food supply remained at an adequate level. After the overthrow of the monarchy, the
position of all social groups began to worsen. Workers’ demands to raise their wages immediately and
substantially, as well as to improve their working conditions, forced the government to start roundthe-
clock currency production. Unrestrained issuing of paper currency resulted in massive inflation.
Consequently, the real incomes of the population began to decline. By 1920 workers’ wages fell to
a level three times below the pre-war level, and intellectual workers’ salaries were nine times lower.
The peasants’ position also took a turn for the worse but to a lesser degree. Privations during the
First World War had a significant defining feature: They set in after a prolonged rise in the population’s
well-being during the prewar period and contrasted with high hopes tied to victory in the
war. Society’s rising expectations clashed head-on with the sudden deterioration in living conditions,
while failures at the front and large military losses deprived the population of optimism and faith
in ultimate victory, which proved especially painful. As a result people found themselves under the
pressure of a dual deprivation. It was the revolution that dealt the economy, the standard of living,
and the quality of governance a crippling blow. The revolution gave way to anarchy, led to the army’s
collapse, and ignited revolutionary violence and disorder. The extremely precarious, difficult situation
prevailing in the country during the eight months of the Provisional Government’s rule gave birth to
the October uprising, forcing Russia to withdraw from the war, and initiated the Civil War. Refs 69.

value:
The article reviewed some aspects of management of the Russian economy during the First World
War. Based on the analysis of executive legislation published in the ‘Collection of Laws and Orders of
Government’ between 1914 and 1917, the author reveals Tsarist administration’s measures of targeted
social assistance for the population and support for stability of the financial system. Special attention is
focused on the problem of the payment of benefits, pensions and allowances to men-at-arms and their
families. The author shed light on the scale of the governmental agencies’ actions and main results of
activities in the social sphere. This article also analyzes a number of measures taken in the regulation of the financial system: bill moratorium, promotion of credit institutions, concessional lending of
enterprises, currency circulation and banknote printing policy, flotation of internal and external loans.
The analysis of regulatory legal acts led the author to conclude that the measures of social and financial
policy adopted by the government were logically interconnected. It is shown that Russia adhered to the
rules for financing military expenditures accepted by all European countries. Drawing on the works
of pre-revolutionary and modern Russian researchers, the author considers that the deterioration of
the overall socio-economic situation in the country, rampant inflation and the disorder of currency
circulation occurred in the year 1916. At the same time, Russia came closest to financial collapse in a
short period of time under the power of the liberal Provisional Government, which, nevertheless, in
many matters adhered to the policy of the overthrown regime. This applies in particular to the problem
of the currency issue that took place in 1917, when the printing presses were fully operational. The main
conclusion of the author comes down to the fact that the Russian government, when it came to regulating
the economy, generally coped well with its duties. However, it failed to establish a public dialogue in the
country and prevent discontent among the revolutionary-minded sections of society. Refs 29. Table 1.

The paper examines the main policies of the imperial government, the tzar’s namestnik (lord
viceroy) and the State Duma concerning the Caucasus question between 1905 and 1907. All the measures
to combat regional nationalism and terrorism are investigated amid the general policy of de-escalation
of tensions and the remedial actions taken in the wake of revolutionary turmoil. The authors
investigate the course by the namestnik H. I. Vorontsov-Dashkov who put together all possible reforms
and security measures to good advantage. The namestnik’s independent policy led to multiple conflicts
with bureaucrats as well as with the State Duma. A personal factor is also worth taking into account —
H. I. Vorontsov-Dashkov had awkward dealings with some members of the government, especially
P. A. Stolypin. The authors conclude that local elites of the region tried to gain maximum concessions
from the government in the shortest time possible through demonstrating explicit support of revolutionary
circles. At the same time, the imperial administration’s overriding demand for the restoration to
minimally safe conditions was more or less ignored. Having chosen the language of slogans and massive
pressure on the Tsarist administration, the Caucasian deputies of the State Duma abrogated the possibility
of satisfying their voters’ expectations and fulfilled the roles of background players in settling regional
conflicts. In conclusion, the viceroyalty was the most effective institution in the revolutionary context
though it remained a provisional and emergency structure. Only H. I. Vorontsov-Dashkov had enough
prerogative and subtle understanding of the situation and, finally, it was he as namestnik who took it
upon himself to introduce real measures to settle national differences in the region and to advocate for
the rights of the Caucasian communities in the face of the Centre. Refs 54.

value:
The delimitation (if not demise) of the secularization thesis has caused European historiography to reassess
the role of religion in nineteenth-century Europe. However, this recalibration has thus far made little
theoretical or empirical progress in the historiography of the Russian Empire. Confession was no doubt
a particularly powerful factor in a multi-confessional state such as the Russian Empire. And within that
empire nowhere was the confessional issue more complex, more conflicted than the Baltic provinces —
once a bastion of autonomous German Lutheranism but, from the 1830s, the target of a growing challenge
from the Russian state and the Orthodox Church. This study suggests that religion was a major issue
in this unassimilated borderland (increasingly subject to integration into a centralized state); that the
Russian state attached significant (but qualified and variable) support for the Russian Orthodox Church;
that this religious policy served not to integrate but to alienate (both the Lutherans and the Orthodox);
and that the Baltic confessional conflict, as it transpired in a new transnational age of globalization, profoundly
impacted Russia’s international status and foreign policy. Refs 124.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is covering the initial period of the advancement of neo-conservatism in Britain. The
author claims that the rise of neo-conservative ideology was the result of the influence of domestic
factors such as economic instability and ineffective Labour government policy as well as international
ones, which decreased the British influence across the world. The author emphasizes radical changes
in organization of government and industrial structures as well as changes in the mode of life of
the British people. The author suggests that these revolutionary reforms carried out on a large-scale
touched upon, practically, each aspect of a daily life in British society. They laid the foundation for
the further neo-conservative transformations inside of the country and strengthened positions of the
Great Britain on a world stage. Refs 28.
