The Three Romes Moscow Constantinople and Rome

The Three Romes Moscow Constantinople and Rome

Moscow Constantinople (now Istanbul) and Rome itself are vitally alive in the present and are magnets for tourists. Also going back a long way each lives in history. These cities have their points in common each wanting to rule the world and establish Rome of the Caesars Constantinople of the Emperors and Moscow of the Tsars were also the Rome of St. Peter the Constantinople of the Patriarchs and the Moscow of the Orthodox Metropolitans. These were cities on earth that aspired to heaven kingdoms that succeeded each other as standard-bearers of Christianity from the fourth century on. Indeed the Russian monk declared to the Tsar: Two Romes have fallen but the third stands and a fourth shall never besh the kingdom of heaven on earth. People recognizing this link them together as the Three Romes. These cities differ though in their understanding of man's nature and business. The Three Romes are three places and also states of mind. Now with a new introduction which describes the contemporary significance to these cities this book will be assessable to the modern reader at all levels. This fascinating book weaves the past and present in a narrative that is sometimes harrowing always vivid and even at times amusing. Russell Fraser shows the reader each city as he himself saw it. He shuttles easily between today and yesterday between today's Central Committee and Ivan the Great between Turkish Istanbul and the golden Constantinople of Justinian between today's Roman politics and the splendid Caesars. Great historical events intellectual concerns and artistic riches define the three Romes. Fraser goes beyond the facades images and myths to lay bare the three great psychologies still vying for the mind of man. The Three Romes is an utterly original book a celebration of the past and an urbane guide to the present. | The Three Romes Moscow Constantinople and Rome

Moscow and the Non-Russian Republics in the Soviet Union Nomenklatura Intelligentsia and Centre-Periphery Relations

Moscow and the Non-Russian Republics in the Soviet Union Nomenklatura Intelligentsia and Centre-Periphery Relations

This book examines what came to determine the local power and character of the Communist party-state at the level of the national non-Russian republics. It discusses how although the Soviet Union looked centralised and monolithic to outsiders local party-states formed their own fiefdoms and had very considerable influence over many policies areas within their republics. It argues that local party-states were shaped by two decisive relationships - to the central Communist party in Moscow and to local constituencies especially to the local intelligentsia and the creative professions who constituted the local party-states’ biggest potential adversaries. It shows how local party-states negotiated stability and their own survival and contends that the effects of Sovietisation continue to be felt in the independent states which succeeded the republics particularly in the field of the relationship with Moscow which remains of immense importance to these countries. | Moscow and the Non-Russian Republics in the Soviet Union Nomenklatura Intelligentsia and Centre-Periphery Relations

Apocalypse Now Connected Histories of Eschatological Movements from Moscow to Cusco 15th-18th Centuries

Apocalypse Now Connected Histories of Eschatological Movements from Moscow to Cusco 15th-18th Centuries

Eschatology played a central role in both politics and society throughout the early modern period. It inspired people to strive for social and political change including sometimes by violent means and prompted in return strong reactions against their religious activism. From the fifteenth to the eighteenth century numerous apocalyptical and messianic movements came to the fore across Eurasia and North Africa raising questions about possible interconnections. Why were eschatological movements so pervasive in early modern times? This volume provides some answers to this question by exploring the interconnected histories of confessions and religions from Moscow to Cusco. It offers a broad picture of Christian and to a lesser extent Jewish and Islamic eschatological movements from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century thereby bridging important and long-standing gaps in the historiography. Apocalypse Now will appeal to both researchers and students of the history of early modern religion and politics in the Christian Jewish and Islamic worlds. By exploring connections between numerous eschatological movements it gives a fresh insight into one of the most promising fields of European and global history. | Apocalypse Now Connected Histories of Eschatological Movements from Moscow to Cusco 15th-18th Centuries

Russia's Geoeconomic Strategy for a Greater Eurasia

Russia's Geoeconomic Strategy for a Greater Eurasia

Moscow has progressively replaced geopolitics with geoeconomics as power is recognised to derive from the state’s ability to establish a privileged position in strategic markets and transportation corridors. The objective is to bridge the vast Eurasian continent to reposition Russia from the periphery of Europe and Asia to the centre of a new constellation. Moscow’s ‘Greater Europe’ ambition of the previous decades produced a failed Western-centric foreign policy culminating in excessive dependence on the West. Instead of constructing Gorbachev’s ‘Common European Home’ the ‘leaning-to-one-side’ approach deprived Russia of the market value and leverage needed to negotiate a more favourable and inclusive Europe. Eurasian integration offers Russia the opportunity to address this ‘overreliance’ on the West by using the Russia’s position as a Eurasian state to advance its influence in Europe. Offering an account steeped in Russian economic statecraft and power politics this book offers a rare glimpse into the dominant narratives of Russian strategic culture. It explains how the country’s outlook adjusts to the ongoing realignment towards Asia while engaging in a parallel assessment of Russia’s interactions with other significant actors. The author offers discussion both on Russian responses and adaptations to the current power transition and the ways in which the economic initiatives promoted by Moscow in its project for a ‘Greater Eurasia’ reflect the entrepreneurial foreign policy strategy of the country. | Russia's Geoeconomic Strategy for a Greater Eurasia

The Fragile Entente The 1978 Japanchina Peace Treaty In A Global Context

The Fragile Entente The 1978 Japanchina Peace Treaty In A Global Context

Between early 1978 and late 1980 power relationships in the Pacific region underwent historic transformation. Deng-Xiaoping re-emerging as a key leader in the People's Republic of China demonstrated pragmatism in domestic and foreign policy. Beijing negotiated a Peace and Friendship Treaty with Japan apparently opening an era of Sino-Japanese economic cooperation. Moscow viewed this development with alarm fearing it would lead to a three-way alliance including the United States. Meanwhile Japan foreswore any military significance in closer links with the PRC but by succumbing to the Chinese demand for inclusion of a treaty clause denouncing Soviet hegemony became an involuntary participant in the Sino-Soviet conflict. | The Fragile Entente The 1978 Japanchina Peace Treaty In A Global Context

Putin’s “Turn to the East” in the Xi Jinping Era

Putin’s “Turn to the East” in the Xi Jinping Era

Rozman Christoffersen and a team of expert contributors analyze the evolution of Vladimir Putin’s reorientation to Asia since 2012.

Governing the Soviet Union's National Republics The Second Secretaries of the Communist Party

Governing the Soviet Union's National Republics The Second Secretaries of the Communist Party

Second Secretary of the Central Committee of a Soviet republic does not sound a very important position but as this book shows it was an extremely important role one that helped hold the Soviet Union together and helped to keep it going for so long. The key was that Second Secretaries were both members of a Soviet republic’s ruling body and at the same time members of the All-Union ruling elite - they were often characterised as Moscow’s governor generals. This book examines how the position of Second Secretary was established by Khrushchev in the 1950s explores how it took on increasingly important political functions representing Moscow’s interests in the republics and the republics’ interests in Moscow and discusses how the conflicts inherent in the role developed. The book also provides biographical details of the people who held the position and argues that the role was extremely effective in managing what could otherwise have been very difficult relationships between centre and periphery. | Governing the Soviet Union's National Republics The Second Secretaries of the Communist Party

A Philosophy of Cultural Scenes in Art and Popular Culture

A Philosophy of Cultural Scenes in Art and Popular Culture

This book seeks to understand culture through the lens of scenes analyzing them aesthetically and culturally as well as understanding them through the frameworks of gender social networks and artworlds. It is common to talk about the cultural and intellectual scenes of early twentieth-century Vienna the visual art scene of postwar New York and the music and fashion scene of the swinging London. We often think about artists and works of art as essentially belonging to a certain scene. Scenes might offer a new approach to study what is possible what is a tradition and/or to discuss what are the relevant units of contemporary culture for research. The book posits that scenes explain a lot about how the artworld and the cultural field function. Vivienne Westwood Rene Magritte Roman Jakobson Arthur C. Danto Susan Sontag James Baldwin and Didier Eribon are among the figures included in the book which examines scenes in cities such as Moscow Bombay New York London Paris Brussels Helsinki and Bratislava. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history cultural studies philosophy film literature and urban studies. | A Philosophy of Cultural Scenes in Art and Popular Culture

Jihadism in the Russian-Speaking World The Genealogy of a Post-Soviet Phenomenon

Jihadism in the Russian-Speaking World The Genealogy of a Post-Soviet Phenomenon

This book contends that the discourses of jihadism in Russia's North Caucasus and their offshoots in other parts of the Russian Federation are not just reflections of jihadi ideologies that came from abroad rather that post-Soviet jihadism is a phenomenon best understood when placed in the broader cultural environment in which it emerged an environment which comprises the North Caucasus the whole of Russia and beyond. It examines how post-Soviet jihadism is also part of global processes in this case global jihadism explores how post-Soviet jihadism bears the imprint of the preceding Soviet context especially in terms of symbols discursive tools interpretational frameworks and dissemination strategies and discusses how ironically Russian-speaking jihadism is an expansionist idea for uniting all Russian regions on a supra-ethnic principle but an idea that was not born in Moscow or St. Petersburg. Overall the book demonstrates that Russian-speaking jihadism is a completely new ideology which nevertheless has its origins in the intellectual and cultural heritage of the Soviet era and in the broader trends of post-Soviet society and culture. | Jihadism in the Russian-Speaking World The Genealogy of a Post-Soviet Phenomenon

Soviet Perceptions Of The Oil Factor In U.s. Foreign Policy The Middle Eastgulf Region

Soviet Perceptions Of The Oil Factor In U.s. Foreign Policy The Middle Eastgulf Region

How Soviet leaders perceive U. S. intentions capabilities and actions plays an important role in the formation of the Soviet Union's foreign policy and its relations with the United States. This book focuses on one set of Soviet perceptions-how the oil shortages and subsequent developments influenced U. S. policy in the Middle East-Gulf region and what the implications of that policy are for the Soviet Union. Although the 1973 energy crisis and related events all represented severe blows to Washington there were costs for Moscow as well; negative developments for one superpower says Dr. Sawyer do not necessarily result in unadulterated gains for the other. Emphasizing this theme he assesses Soviet perceptions of the 1973 energy crisis and the intensification of U. S. interest in the Middle East-Gulf region; the Camp David accords and the Egyptian-Israeli Treaty; the impact of the Iranian revolution on U. S. and Soviet positions in the region; the effect of the Soviet invasion of Afganistan on U. S. policy; the Iraqi-Iranian war; and the Soviet response to Washington's concern over U. S. energy vulnerability. | Soviet Perceptions Of The Oil Factor In U. s. Foreign Policy The Middle Eastgulf Region

The Dynamical Projectors Method Hydro and Electrodynamics

The dynamical projectors method proves to reduce a multicomponent problem to the simplest one-component problem with its solution determined by specific initial or boundary conditions. Its universality and application in many different physical problems make it particularly useful in hydrodynamics electrodynamics plasma physics and boundary layer problems. A great variety of underlying mechanisms are included making this book useful for those working in wave theory hydrodynamics electromagnetism and applications. The authors developed a universal and elegant tool – dynamical projector method. Using this method for very complicated hydro-thermodynamic and electrodynamics problem settings they were able to get a lot of interesting analytical results in areas where before often just numerical methods were applicable. —L.

The Russian Orthodox Church 1917-1948 From Decline to Resurrection

The Russian Orthodox Church 1917-1948 From Decline to Resurrection

This book tells the remarkable story of the decline and revival of the Russian Orthodox Church in the first half of the twentieth century and the astonishing U-turn in the attitude of the Soviet Union’s leaders towards the church. In the years after 1917 the Bolsheviks’ anti-religious policies the loss of the former western territories of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union’s isolation from the rest of the world and the consequent separation of Russian emigrés from the church were disastrous for the church which declined very significantly in the 1920s and 1930s. However when Poland was partitioned in 1939 between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union Stalin allowed the Patriarch of Moscow Sergei jurisdiction over orthodox congregations in the conquered territories and went on later to encourage the church to promote patriotic activities as part of the resistance to the Nazi invasion. He agreed a Concordat with the church in 1943 and continued to encourage the church especially its claims to jurisdiction over émigré Russian orthodox churches in the immediate postwar period. Based on extensive original research the book puts forward a great deal of new information and overturns established thinking on many key points. | The Russian Orthodox Church 1917-1948 From Decline to Resurrection

The Afterlife of the Shoah in Central and Eastern European Cultures Concepts Problems and the Aesthetics of Postcatastrophic Narration

The Afterlife of the Shoah in Central and Eastern European Cultures Concepts Problems and the Aesthetics of Postcatastrophic Narration

The Afterlife of the Shoah in Central and Eastern European Cultures is a collection of essays by literary scholars from Germany the US and Central Eastern Europe offering insight into the specific ways of representing the Shoah and its aftereffects as well as its entanglement with other catastrophic events in the region. Introducing the conceptual frame of postcatastrophe the collected essays explore the discursive and artistic space the Shoah occupies in the countries between Moscow and Berlin. Postcatastrophe is informed by the knowledge of other concepts of post and shares their insight into forms of transmission and latency; in contrast to them explores the after-effects of extreme events on a collective aesthetic and political rather than a personal level. The articles use the concept of postcatastrophe as a key to understanding the entangled and conflicted cultures of remembrance in postsocialist literatures and the arts dealing with events phenomena and developments that refuse to remain in the past and still continue to shape perceptions of today’s societies in Eastern Europe. As a contribution to memory studies as well as to literary criticism with a special focus on Shoah remembrance after socialism this book is of great interest to students and scholars of European history and those interested in historical memory more broadly. | The Afterlife of the Shoah in Central and Eastern European Cultures Concepts Problems and the Aesthetics of Postcatastrophic Narration

Bringing Cold War Democracy to West Berlin A Shared German–American Project 1940–1972

Bringing Cold War Democracy to West Berlin A Shared German–American Project 1940–1972

Within the span of a generation Nazi Germany’s former capital Berlin found a new role as a symbol of freedom and resilient democracy in the Cold War. This book unearths how this remarkable transformation resulted from a network of liberal American occupation officials and returned émigrés or remigrés of the Marxist Social Democratic Party (SPD). This network derived from lengthy physical and political journeys. After fleeing Hitler German-speaking self-professed revolutionary socialists emphasized anti-totalitarianism in New Deal America and contributed to its intelligence apparatus. These experiences made these remigrés especially adept at cultural translation in postwar Berlin against Stalinism. This book provides a new explanation for the alignment of Germany’s principal left-wing party with the Western camp. While the Cold War has traditionally been analyzed from the perspective of decision makers in Moscow or Washington this study demonstrates the agency of hitherto marginalized on the conflict’s first battlefield. Examining local political culture and social networks underscores how both Berliners and émigrés understood the East-West competition over the rubble that the Nazis left behind as a chance to reinvent themselves as democrats and cultural mediators respectively. As this network popularized an anti-Communist pro-Western Left this book identifies how often ostracized émigrés made a crucial contribution to the Federal Republic of Germany’s democratization. | Bringing Cold War Democracy to West Berlin A Shared German–American Project 1940–1972

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy

The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games stand as the most profitable and arguably the most important event in the history of the modern Olympic movement. Fresh off the back of the financially disastrous Montreal Games of 1976 and the politically controversial Moscow Games of 1980 the Olympic movement returned to the United States for the sixth time in an attempt to salvage the economic viability and global prestige of the Olympics. The Los Angeles Olympics proved to be both provocative and polarizing. On the one hand they have been heralded as an overwhelming transformative success ushering the Olympic movement into the modern commercial age. On the other hand critics have repudiated the Games as a manifestation of commercial excess and a platform for western political and cultural propaganda. In conjunction with the 30th anniversary of the Los Angeles Olympics this volume examines their legacy. With an international collection of contributing scholars this volume will span a range of global legacies including the increasing commercialization of the Games the changing participation of women the Communist boycott movement nationalism and sporting identity and the modernization and California-cation of the Games. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport. | The 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games Assessing the 30-Year Legacy
