Foreign Policy Aspects of the Activities of the State Duma of the Russian Federation of the First Convocation (on the 30th Anniversary of the Start of Work)

The article considers the foreign policy aspects of the activities of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation of the First convocation. The specifics of the main results of parliamentary votes of this period, which were related to international-political realities, in the context of their relationship with the conceptual foundations and implementation of Russian foreign policy, have been characterized. Features of the composition and nature of the activities of the lower house of the Russian parliament of this period have been identified. The conceptualization of the Russian Federation’s foreign policy has been analyzed. The initiatives and decisions of the State Duma of the Russian Federation of the First convocation in the field of foreign policy and international relations have been assessed. It is shown that these were due to the specifics of its personal composition, where there was no strict factional discipline and a clear advantage of any political force, which determined the need for situational interaction. The normal work of the lower house of parliament became possible largely due to the efforts of its Chairman, who took a centrist position. It is substantiated that the State Duma, operating in conditions of complex socio-economic problems and the colossal weakening of Russia’s international political positions, demonstrated significant activity in international political initiatives that covered a wide range of topical issues with an emphasis on the situation in the states of the post-Soviet space. These decisions were relatively balanced, which was explained by the approximately equal distribution of resources between the so-called “left”, “right”, “centrists” and “national patriots”, as well as the presence of “common bloc” issues, positions on which coincided or did not cause obvious contradictions. The international political initiatives of the State Duma of the First convocation were distinguished by greater realism and emphasis on the protection of national interests than the content of conceptual documents and the foreign policy course pursued by the state. This happened against the background and simultaneously with the beginning of the process of rethinking the foreign policy approaches of the Russian Federation, which had a significant influence on it.

강원지역 입보용 산악산성의 현황과 특징

‘Mountain’ means ‘high, rugged mountains.’ This mountainous terrain is one of the geographical features of the Gangwon region, and fortresses are located here and there in the mountains. In this paper, I would like to summarize the contents of fortresses in mountainous areas for entry among the mountain fortress data accumulated to date in the Gangwon region and briefly look at their characteristics. The fortress to be discussed in this paper will be examined with a focus on ruins for which archaeological investigation has been conducted at least once. The ruins are seven fortresses, including Gwongeumsanseong in Sokcho, Hangyesanseong in Inje, Dootasanseong in Donghae, Samaksanseong in Chuncheon, Yeongwonsanseong in Wonju, and JeongyangsanseongㆍTaehwasanseong in Yeongwol. The common characteristics of these fortresses are that they built walls using the rugged natural terrain (mountains) and used natural cliffs as walls to defend against invasion from the outside. The fortress wall surrounds the valley, making it easy to secure a water source, and is built in layers. Since the natural surface was used, the planar shape of the fortresses is not constant (irregular). In addition, the area of the mountain fortress is wide to maximize the living space inside, creating conditions for long-term staging. In addition, most of the mountain fortresses have historical facts related to the Khitan, Mongolia, etc., so they have something in common that shows national patriotism. Most of the artifacts excavated through archaeological investigations also correspond to this period. There is a study that shows that there is a lack of planning in the construction of mountain fortresses for entry in the Gangwon region. However, looking at the common characteristics of the fortresses mentioned above, it appears that there was sufficient planning. In addition, due to the rugged terrain, it is believed that it was only managed by the town police station in normal times, but when war broke out, it took on that role. From literature and archaeological investigations, it is believed that most mountain fortresses in the Gangwon region were built for the purpose of staging a sit-in. It can be said that the fortresses were built during the Goryeo Dynasty and operated until the Joseon Dynasty. However, the outer castle of Jeongyangsanseong in Yeongwol is different in that it was built with walls in addition to the inner wall built during the Three Kingdoms period and was operated until the Joseon Dynasty, but the characteristics of castles in other mountainous terrains in the Gangwon region are similar. For mountain fortresses in Korea, the English expressions “castle” and “fortress” are often used. In preparing this article, I believe that the large fortress wall located on the rugged mountainous terrain during the Goryeo Dynasty also had the meaning of “a shelter”.

Совместимы ли патриотизм и интернационализм?

This article analyses the relationship between patriotism and internationalism. In the context of the pluralism of interpretations in modern discourse, the paper clarifies the concepts of internationalism and patriotism, as well as their correlation with the terms cosmopolitanism, nationalism and anti-patriotism. All these categories are considered here as different types of attitudes of some ethnic communities, nations and peoples towards other ethnic communities, nations and peoples, as a way of nations’ self-positioning in the world’s multi-ethnic cultural space. The authors single out the ideological and the socio-psychological levels of the analysis of patriotism and internationalism. At the ideological level, the categories used to characterize interethnic relations are presented in the form of types of rational political ideology. Here, the subject of interethnic relations is the ethnic community as a whole, as a collective community. At the socio-psychological level, the types of mass socio-political orientations, feelings, behavioural attitudes and stereotypes in the sphere of interethnic relations are determined. Here, the subject of interethnic relations is the individual person as a typical representative of a certain ethnic community. It has been established that patriotism and internationalism are closely interconnected and mediate each other, both in individual and in social consciousness. The attitude towards one’s own Motherland and people determines the attitude towards other countries and peoples, and vice versa, the attitude towards other countries and peoples determines the attitude towards one’s own country and people. The essence of modern Russian patriotism is described as a harmonious balance between constructive humanistic patriotism and humanistic internationalism. In addition, the problem of forming constructive patriotism in the Russian mass consciousness, which should replace the liberal ideologies of cosmopolitanism and globalism, is discussed. These ideologies are viewed as destructive forms of internationalism, which promote the erasure of the socio-cultural identity of nations and deny national patriotism.

Legitimacy and Nationalism in the Central Asian States: A Case of Kazakhstan in the Context of the War in Ukraine

This paper aims to analyze selected mechanisms accompanying the processes of national revival in the Central Asian republics after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The idea is to investigate the authorities’ actions, which legitimized themselves by appealing to national issues and controlling the processes of building national consciousness. The paper also covers the changes in the nationalist narrative in Kazakhstan in the context of the war in Ukraine, showing the tensions over national identities and loyalties. Some Kazakhs supported Russian aggression against Ukraine, to the great disappointment of national patriots, which has sparked a debate about how the “us” vs. “them” division should be understood in the face of war and a possible threat from Russia. Some participants in the debate question the reliability of equating national identity with loyalty to the state. In doing so, they challenge the government’s primordial narrative, in which nationality legitimizes or naturalizes the current configuration of political power.

Ukrainian Studies in the System of National Patriotic Education of Student Youth: Teacher's Experience and Creative Implementation of Practical Skills

The article raises the question of the importance of Ukrainian studies as an integrative science, as the integrity of the formation of knowledge about Ukraine and Ukrainianness in the system of national-patriotic education of schoolchildren. After all, it is known that patriotism is a factor in the formation of the national identity of Ukrainians. Therefore, the education of the younger generation requires the development of a systematic approach in the methodology of studying Ukrainian studies and the accumulation of knowledge about Ukraine and the Ukrainian world. Attention is drawn to the results of the III International Competition for teachers of general secondary education institutions of Ukraine and educational institutions of the Ukrainian diaspora "Ukrainian Studies Priorities of the Educational Process", which was held from January 20 to April 5, 2023. The participation of a large number of contestants in the Competition is proof of the active pedagogical activity of Ukrainian educators, spreading the experience of the creative embodiment of the teacher's skill during the educational process, as well as the courage and resilience of teachers and student youth in the conditions of russian armed aggression. Attention is focused on the fact that the Competition is aimed at using the potential of Ukrainian studies as a means of forming conscious and motivated patriotism, developing social and cultural competences that involve the ability to preserve and protect national identity. The role of studying and spreading the best pedagogical experience of teachers regarding the Ukrainian studies content of the education system, the teaching of the elective course "Ukrainian studies", as well as the use of elements of Ukrainian studies in various fields of education in Ukraine and in Ukrainian educational centers abroad is emphasized. It is shown that the research activity of teachers of general secondary education institutions of Ukraine, namely, the writing of original works on Ukrainian studies, helps to implement new methods and practices in pedagogical activity.

Некоторые аспекты военно-патриотического воспитания

The substantive role of batyrs in the education of national patriotism is considered. Horse riding, fights, conquests, love for military affairs developed a special «institute of batyrs», which solved almost all the most complex problems that arose in traditional Turkic-Kazakh society. Military history played an important role in the process of educating young soldiers. The moral and ethical norms that have developed in nomadic society give full reason to believe that the institution of great heroes served as the main source of inspiration for young people and performed an important function of patriotic education. Military-patriotic education is one of the important factors in ensuring military security, especially in the context of the changes that are taking place in the modern world. In all universities where there are military departments, it is necessary to introduce the subject of «Military History». Students studying at military departments should know the theory and practice in the construction of the Armed Forces, the theoretical foundations of military affairs and military art, learn to think about the military and get educated in the spirit of respect and friendship of peoples. The outward-political situation in the world requires enormous responsibility for strengthening the country's defense capability. The study of military history, national spiritual and moral values accumulated from the ancient period, a prerequisite among other areas in the military-patriotic education of students of Higher Educational Institutions. The huge role of the military history of the Kazakhs is revealed, where honor and dignity were the main factor in the development of the civilian position of the younger generation

Powerful work is being done on the formation of a high patriotic consciousness, a sense of loyalty, love for the Motherland, concern for the well-being of one's people, readiness to fulfill the civic and constitutional duty to protect the national interests, integrity, independence of Ukraine in the young generation, promoting its establishment as a legal, democratic, social state. The most important priority of national-patriotic education is the formation of a valuable attitude of the individual towards the Ukrainian people, the Motherland, the state, and the nation.

Formation of a Patriotic Personality in the Educational Process of a Modern School Using the Means of Cossack Pedagogics

The article is devoted to the problem of patriotic upbringing of a growing personality and the disclosure of the role of Cossack pedagogy in this process. The author carried out an analysis of the study of the problem of patriotic education in scientific literature; the educational potential of Cossack pedagogy is emphasized, as it contributes to the formation of a nationally conscious personality, ready to defend the national interests of its state if necessary.
 The purpose of the article is to highlight the peculiarities of patriotic upbringing of a growing personality based on the heroic traditions of the Ukrainian Cossacks in the conditions of modern challenges.
 In the conditions of martial law, the education of a growing personality in the glorious traditions of Ukrainian Cossacks, the popularization of Cossack ideals in society becomes especially relevant. Cossack traditions, as the embodiment of national values, renew the modern educational process, fill it with patriotic content, strengthen the philosophy of the National School of Education, the Strategy of National Patriotic Education, and contribute to the formation of the Ukrainian-centric value sphere of the individual.
 In order to encourage schoolchildren to personal growth, motivation for self-realization, a healthy lifestyle, tempering of will and character, readiness to protect their land, priority areas of work are such as: studying the history of the Ukrainian Cossacks, heroic traditions of brave knights and their popularization; organization of sports and health camps; creation of martial arts groups, etc.

The Northern Sea Route: National Patriotism and Business Interests

This article analyzes a campaign to involve Russian and foreign sailors in discovering a sea route to Siberia. The campaign was launched in the 1860s–1870s by M. K. Sidorov, a Siberian gold miner and public figure (1823–1887). Sidorov’s recruiting campaign is a perfect example of an attempt to establish cooperation between segments of the imperial periphery in the realm of a private commercial project while avoiding direct participation of the imperial center. Sidorov acted as a third party in the communication between the imperial authorities and local communities, successfully pitching himself as an independent, albeit not always successful, actor. The window of opportunity for the enterprising Siberian industrialist opened due to the Great Reforms of the 1860s, which launched the process of a dynamic and multifaceted transformation of the Empire. This process was gradually encompassing the most remote borderland territories of the Empire, including those in the North. But, unlike businessmen from different classes who perceived these territories as a source of enrichment (export of timber, graphite, sea-hunting industry, fisheries, etc.), the imperial center treated its vast northern territorial possessions as a burden and did not want to invest in their development. In the 1860s–1870s, the transportation infrastructure of the northern borderland or the Empire developed largely due to specialists from Great Britain, the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway, Finland, the Governorate of Livonia, and Estonia. The northern periphery of the Russian Empire was increasingly falling under foreign influence, which caused concern for private entrepreneurs and government officials. A way to replace foreign sailors was training indigenous peoples of the Russian North in maritime affairs.

ФОРМУВАННЯ НАУКОВОЇ ДУМКИ У ФІЗИЧНІЙ КУЛЬТУРІ РАННЬОГО ПЕРІОДУ СЕРЕДНЬОВІЧНОЇ ПАТРИСТИКИ

The educational subject «History of physical culture» according to the periodization existing in modern historical science reveals in sufficient detail the stages and aspects of the formation of pedagogical thought in the physical culture of primitive society, physical education during the times of ancient civilizations and in the ancient world, education in the Middle Ages, the formation of educational thoughts of the new and most recent times. In every historical period of human evolution, the requirements for physical education were justified by the prevailing religion, the level of economic and social development of society, national and cultural traditions and regional features of the life and lifestyle of a nation or group of nations. Some ethnic groups on our planet exist on the terrain of today and some are disappearing from the bosom of our planet, but unfortunately, this is the philosophy of life. And those nations who are now prosperous and have preserved their own identity must be indebted to physical culture, which during stormy centuries gave them the opportunity to resist climate and environmental changes, to withstand numerous wars for independence, to form individual moral principles and so on. Along with the development of physical culture, scientific thought in this field was also formed, which, within the framework of the global process, formed humanistic approaches of universal solidarity, and at the same time, a feeling of national patriotism. Scientific thought in the physical culture of a classless society was formed in the bowels of an anthropomorphic proto-religion with the initiations to check the readiness of the entire adult population for future life trials. Pedagogy of physical culture of ancient civilizations was influenced by polytheistic theosophical aspects. But the key nuance of this pedagogy was the exaltation of human corporeality, which was formed according to the divine likeness. For example, the foundations of the Hellenic kalokagatia. With the establishment of the dominant position of the Christian religion at the beginning of our era, there is also a change in the attitude of the apologists of the religion towards the beauty of the human body as a divine creation. Thus, the material of this article should specify the facts that indicate a deep understanding of the role of physical culture in the early period of medieval patristics. Key words: pedagogy, history of physical culture, physical culture, philosophical anthropology, patristics, Christianity, religion.

Peculiarities of the patrol police unit head’s job to ensure public safety and order during military operations

The rapid, full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia has left the country’s defence and security forces, such as the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the National Police of Ukraine, and the National Guard of Ukraine, in a state of focus, resilience, and need for clear leadership. Leaders have a key role to play in preventing staff from becoming deadapted and disoriented. They must ensure that the effort organisation is structured in such a way that positive results are achieved, and losses are minimised. The research aims to study the views and opinions of scholars and practitioners on the state of the managerial and organisational potential of heads of patrol police units whose main task is to ensure public safety and order. The study used scientific and empirical methods, in particular, the synergistic approach, graphical, comparison, analysis and synthesis, and questionnaires, based on which reasonable conclusions were drawn. Following the results obtained: the conclusion regarding gaps in the procedure for interaction between patrol police officers and some law enforcement agencies and the lack of special training for actions in extreme conditions were deducted. It is established that patrol police officers are guided by a sense of national patriotism, which is formed through persuasion, moral support, and the example of their superiors. The areas of cyber hygiene, first aid training and handling explosive devices are lacking. The analysis of the reports of the heads of the services showed a positive trend in reducing the number of offences and deaths on the country’s roads. The practical value of this study is that it is in demand, as it reveals the actual problematic issues of the professional competence of a patrol police officer who is involved every day in ensuring public safety and order in different regions of the country with atypical levels of threats and dangers. It is the basis for further scientific study and solution of problematic aspects of patrol police service in the context of martial law and active hostilities by the aggressor country

Господи, спаси землю русскую! Церковь и пропаганда в годы Великой Отечественной войны

The Soviet state viewed the Orthodox Church not just as an ideological competitor, but also as a force that could restore the old order. Church and religion were perceived not as an anachronism, but as a serious ideological adversary and class enemy. However, the attack of Nazi Germany on the USSR showed that in the face of the threat of an external enemy, the consolidation of all forces was required. Under these conditions, in July 1941, the newspaper Bezbozhnik [Antitheist] ceased to exist having published its last issue. Atheistic propaganda went into decline. It was replaced by national patriotism. In many works of art (feature and documentary films) and newspaper articles a positive image of an Orthodox priest or a godly man appeared. For Nazi propagandists, this was a very dangerous sign: from the very beginning of hostilities, they presented themselves exclusively as defenders of the Church and religion. In fact, Nazism was alien to the ideas of Christianity.

Syed Ross Masood and a Japanese Model for Education, Nationalism, and Modernity in Hyderabad

AbstractSyed Ross Masood (1889-1937), grandson of the Muslim modernist Syed Ahmad Khan and former principal of Osmania University, traveled in 1922 from India to Japan as Director of Public Instruction for Hyderabad to assess Japan's educational system. In Japan and Its Educational System, a report published in 1923, Masood concluded that education had been key to Japan's rapid modernization and recommended that Hyderabad follow the country's model of modernization and educational reform: transmit Western knowledge through widespread vernacular education, and focus on the imperial tradition, freedom from foreign control, and patriotic nationalism. Masood sought to use mass vernacular education to create in Hyderabad a nationalist subject, loyal to the ruling Muslim dynasty, who absorbed modern scientific knowledge with its Western epistemic foundations but who remained untainted by Western norms. This study contextualizes and historicizes Masood's attempt to create in Hyderabad a new nationalist subject, focusing on his 1923 report about Japan.

THE FORMATION OF ECOLOGICAL CULTURE OF CHILDREN THROUGH THE PERFORMANCE "ADVENTURE OF THE SNOW LEOPARD" OF THEATER FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH NAMED AFTER N. SATS

The article considers the possibility of forming the ecological culture of the younger generation through theatrical art, where the fairy tale is the main pedagogical technique of environmental education of students. Currently, along with the traditional genres of TYUZ (magic, social and household fairy tales, children's musical, etc.), the range of children's drama is expanding due to the integration of modern stage forms into the TYUZ repertoire, such as plastic drama, ecological theater, children's performance, etc. The maximum adaptability of the language of performance to children's emotional perception (stage entertainment and dynamics), the use of advanced technologies in the theatrical production industry and the danger of a potential environmental catastrophe justify the relevance of the functioning of the ecotheater for changing children's psychology and awareness of priority environmental values. The purpose of ecological productions of the world children's theater, including in Kazakhstan, is to form the correct children's ecological worldview, to foster a sense of responsibility to the living and inanimate nature, civic duty and national patriotism. The study of the problem of environmental education of children through theatrical art on the example of the play "The Adventure of the Snow Leopard" of the Theater for Children and Youth named after N. Sats allowed to identify the solution of a number of eco-pedagogical tasks of the state noted in the Message of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The research results obtained during the survey diagnose the relevance of an unconventional artistic approach through the visualization of a broadcast problem in the issues of environmental education of students.

Transformations of the Civic Identity of the Bukovinians: the Experience of the 20th - Beginning of the 21st Centuries

In her research, the author examines the peculiarities of socio-political processes in Bukovina (primarily its northern part) from the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century in terms of their reciprocal relationships with the processes of forming the civic identity of the region's inhabitants. The article draws attention to the role and significance of the First World War in the formation of the national identity of Ukrainians in the region and the activation of the national liberation movement in the region. Special attention is paid to the Soviet period, during which the formation of the so-called "Soviet man" (homo sovieticus) took place, who was devoid of a sense of national patriotism and had lost his national identity. The processes of forming an independent Ukrainian state and the relationship between democratization of socio-political life and the growth of civic identity are analyzed. The author emphasizes the importance of educational activities for the development of civic identity.

Humanity in the Light of Revolution—A Study of Evan King’s English Translation of National Patriotic Writer Xiao Jun’s Village in August

As one of the pivot figures of “Northeastern Writers”, Xiao Jun’s Village in August is of great importance in the history of modern Chinese literature, highlighting the local characteristics of Northeastern China, the revolutionary “banditry”, and the romantic personal heroism, attracting the attention of Chinese and Western critics. The translation by American sinology researcher Evan King shows attention to Chinese stories and makes a unique contribution to the cultural exchange between China and the West. His translation is noteworthy, but given the differences in cultural contexts between the two countries and the subjectivity of the translator, it is inevitably full of adaptation and mistranslation. Therefore, it is necessary to make a comprehensive examination of the literary style of the original work, and then propose handy translation strategies and principles for the new era: under the translation principle of truthfulness and accuracy, when translating Chinese culture, it is better to integrate both the foreignisation and domestication; when it comes to local culture, it is appropriate to apply various means to compensate for the cultural default given the specific situation and keep fidelity to the original text in the translation of the novel’s literary characteristics.

«Italian in Аlgeria» J. Rossini in the context of the evolutionary ways of the development of the Italian music theater of the early XIX century

The purpose of the study is to identify the poetic and intonational features of the opera «Italian in Algeria» by G. Rossini in the context of general evolutionary paths of development of the genre of Italian comic opera. The methodology is based on a combination of culturological, historical and musicological, hermeneutic and art studies, which together significantly deepens the study of genre and style specifics of opera by G. Rossini, in particular, «Italians in Algeria» as a new stage in the development of opera-buffa. The scientific novelty of the work is determined by its analytical perspective, which takes into account both the manifestations of aesthetic and stylistic guidelines of Rossini's opera «Italian in Algeria» and its genre specificity, adjusted to the Italian cultural and historical tradition of the early nineteenth century. Conclusions. The plot-semantic indicators of G. Rossini's «Italians in Algeria», on the one hand, show contact with the typology of the «classic» opera-buffa, as evidenced by the traditional comedy plot; the correlation of most of the heroes of the play with the types of Italian comedy masks; appeal to oriental (Turkish) themes, interpreted in the spirit of the ideas of the Enlightenment, as well as analogies with the Mozart Musical Theater and the comedies of JB Moliere. On the other hand, the opera demonstrates the innovative approach of its author, as evidenced by the final rondo of Isabella with the choir, which both in text and in intonation language appeals to the ideas of Italian culture on the eve of Risorgimento. Generalization of the intonation specificity of «Italian in Algeria» by G. Rossini demonstrates the originality of the relationship between traditions and innovations. The poetics of opera-buffa is manifested here in G. Rossini's masterful mastery of the art of opera ensemble; in the wide use of timbre-performance capabilities of buffoon bass, patter techniques, etc. The novelty of the work is manifested in the complexity of the images of the main characters, the richness of their intonation characteristics, which were based on the traditions of belcanto. This is primarily related to the image of Isabella, who ultimately gravitates to the ideas of national patriotism and thus greatly expands the expressive possibilities of the typology of opera-buffa in line with the socio-political and cultural realities of Italy in the early XIX century.
 Key words: opera-buffa, G. Rossini Musical Theater, «Italian in Algeria», Risorgimento, Italian Musical Theater.
