How to manage the unknown past: places of memory and places of playing

В данной статье приводится и анализируется аргументация различных авторов как в пользу сохранения памяти о травмирующем прошлом, так и в пользу ее уничтожения. Раскрываются причины и последствия создания мест памяти и мест забвения. Кроме того, рассмотрение примеров управления памятью о нацистских лагерях в Германии, Украине и России позволяет приблизиться к решению этического вопроса о долге памяти или формировании единства через забытье.The given article presents and analyzes the argumentation provided by various scholars concerning the issue of saving the memory of challenging past or eliminating it. The causes and consequences of creating lieux de memoire and lieux de amnesie are revealed. Moreover, the study of Germany, Ukraine and Russia cases of dealing with the memory of Nazi concentration camps allows to approach the solution for an ethical question of the duty of memory or forming unity and identity through forgetting

Orthodox Social Institutions and russian Civil Society at the Turn of the 20th Century

The article was submitted on 11.06.2014.The article explores the peculiarities of creation and function of Russian Orthodox social institutions of the second half of the 19th — early 20th centuries in the relation to church reforms that were part of the modernization social life process. The author’s research focuses on whether it is possible to consider organizations created “from above” civil social institutions, and refers to the all-Russian, regional and local organizations. The author analyzes the correspondence and interaction of initiatives put forward by the authorities and the public during the establishment of the aforementioned organizations, as well as whether the regional peculiarities were taken into consideration during the process, as well as the public’s reaction to their activity. Using the historical-typological, structural-functional, and comparative approaches, the author concludes that church organizations should be regarded more as a means of learning the fundamentals of civil values and social initiative than as established social institutions as such.Рассматриваются особенности создания и функционирования российских православных общественных организаций второй половины XIX –начала ХХ в. в контексте церковных реформ, происходивших в русле модернизации общественной жизни. Основная научная проблема — можно ли считать создаваемые «сверху» организации институтом гражданского общества — изучается на материалах всероссийских, региональных и местных организаций. Анализируются соотношение и взаимодействие властных и общественных инициатив в процессе становления и развития этих организаций, учет региональной специфики, общественные отзывы о их деятельности. На основе применения историко-типологического, структурно-функционального, сравнительно-исторического подходов автор приходит к выводу, что существовавшие православные общественные организации целесообразно оценивать скорее как «школу гражданственности и общественной инициативы», чем как сложившиеся общественные организации в классическом понимании этого термина.Исследование выполнено за счет гранта Российского научного фонда (проект № 14-18-01625)

BRICS Countries Education Export: Challenges and Forecasts

The purpose of this research is to study how the BRICS countries can ensure the active involvement of foreign citizens from partner countries, taking into account the territorial and sectoral segments of the world market. The work relies on expert panels, aimed at reducing initially differing points of view of experts from different countries to more consistent provisions. This method allowed us to record changes in the observed values, characteristics, to study the dynamics of the development of processes in the field of education export. Export of education allows an increasing the number of foreign citizens to study in higher education institutions in BRICS states. Based on the factor analysis of the national education systems of the BRICS countries in terms of tasks and forecasts, a matrix of requests from scientific fields is compiled and recommendations are made. Keywords: national education systems, export educatio

Vertical section construction of wells at Kuyumbinsky oil field via percussive-rotary drilling with DTH hammer

The article presents the analysis of sequential use of mobile percussive-rotary drilling sets with DTH hammer and bottom-hole cleaning by foam mud in construction of vertical sections along with at Kuyumbinsky oil field. On the basis of the analysis, an engineering solution is proposed to prevent disastrous mud loss that is the key factor of efficiency in implementation of resource-saving technologies

Hosing of a long relativistic particle bunch in plasma

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, self-modulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies close to the plasma electron frequency, and are reproducible. Development of hosing depends on misalignment direction, its growth on misalignment extent and on proton bunch charge. Results have the main characteristics of a theoretical model, are relevant to other plasma-based accelerators and represent the first characterization of hosing

Impact of hydrocarbon drilling mud on mud motor elastomers at different temperatures

The paper describes the experimental research of hydrocarbon drilling mud impact on engineering parameters of mud motor elastomer samples. It is believed to be urgent due to an increase in using mud motors in oil and gas well construction now, and the issue of intense exploitation is currently topical. The test results of elastomer IRP- 1226 dependent on the temperature are shown in the paper. It is proved that the hydrocarbon drilling muds have a significant impact on wearing of mud motors elastomers under the condition of a temperature increase
