The article presents the results of a study of scientific, educational and ascetic activities of one of the brightest representatives of the modern Ukrainian diaspora in Russia - Tetiana Lebedynska, a daughter of Ukrainian writer Mykola Shpak. T.M. Lebedynska is PhD in Philosophy, translator, writer, member of the Ukrainian Union of Writers, author of exhibitions dedicated to Ukrainian St. Petersburg, holder of the Order of Princess Olga III degree. The multifaceted scientific and educational activity of Tetiana Mykolajivna is considered. It is emphasized that she initiated and organized the International Scientific Seminar «St. Petersburg – Ukraine», which resulted in the publication of twenty collections of articles from 2000 to 2020. T.M. Lebedynska is the author of more than 200 scientific works, including unique publications: «Shevchenko's places of St. Petersburg», «St. Petersburg and Ukraine», «M.P. Hrebinka - town-planning of St. Petersburg», «Ukrainian necropolis of St. Petersburg», «I. Mazepa - Commander of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called», dictionary»Outstanding figures of science and culture of Russia who came from Ukraine», etc.. T.M. Lebedynska was published in Western Europe, the United States, and Arab countries. It is noted that the heroine of our intelligence pays most attention to the study of the life and work of the Great Kobzar, who had many life events in St. Petersburg: here he studied and worked, gained freedom and communicated with many prominent cultural figures, wrote poems and paintings and became an academician of arts. It was Tetiana Mykolajivna who was one of the initiators of the installation in St. Petersburg of the monument to Taras Shevchenko by Canadian sculptor Leo Mol (Leonid Molodozhanin), she collected signatures against the relocation of the site from the city center near the university to the outskirts, also she initiated and participated in the installation of a memorial to Kobzar at the Smolensk cemetery. Among other things Tetiana Lebedynska‟s ascetic activity is represented, by a study of the Ukrainian necropolis of St. Petersburg, as most graves and tombstones are in a state of destruction and may disappear for the future without restoration. And with them the memory of our compatriots who found eternal peace in the land of North Palmira will be destroyed. The article states that today, when Crimea is annexed and the Russian occupation of Donbass continues, it is very important to study the experience of our contemporaries - Ukrainians in Russia, who do not lose their identity in conditions of strong informational, ideological and linguistic pressure.

Este artigo aborda a importância do patrimônio comercial como um relevante formador de identidade e memória social. A fim de argumentar essa hipótese, valemo-nos da relação da sociedade com uma das mais tradicionais tipologias de comércio encontrada largamente por todo o Brasil e também no exterior, os armazéns de secos e molhados, utilizando como estudo de caso a realidade de Joinville, maior cidade do Estado de Santa Catarina. O município, também conhecido como Manchester Catarinense, em virtude da pujança de seu parque industrial, apresenta forte ligação com o comércio, assunto que é pouco discutido ou valorizado. Para tal, a metodologia usada foi baseada na revisão bibliográfica, nas decisões da Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, Ciência e Cultura (UNESCO) relativas ao patrimônio industrial e na análise de entrevistas orais e outros documentos existentes no Arquivo Histórico de Joinville. As pesquisas demonstraram que há grande identificação da população para com o patrimônio comercial e que ele também contém forte relação com a memória e a identidade da sociedade, merecendo, portanto, ser contemplado nos debates sobre o patrimônio cultural, assim como ter seus vestígios materiais preservados, quer seja por meio dos edifícios comerciais, quer em razão dos seus objetos no acervo de museus.This article discusses about the outstanding Commercial Heritage as an important identity and social memory builder. In order to argue on this hypothesis, we consider society relation with one of the most traditional kinds of trade, widely found throughout whole Brasil, however also abroad, grocery stores, using as study basis, Joinville reality, the largest city in the State of Santa Catarina. The City is also known as Catarinense Manchester due to its great industrial pole that reflects a true and strong relation with commerce and rarely discussed or valued. Methodology used for this research was based on bibliography revisions, on the decisions of the United Nations Organization for the Education, Science and Culture (UNESCO) concerning industrial heritage and analysis of oral interviews, other documents from the History File of Joinville. Studies demonstrated there is a strong identification of people in reference to the commercial heritage and moreover to the memory and society identity deserving, therefore, be contemplated in the discussions about the cultural heritage as well as material traces preserved either through commercial buildings, or objects in the museum’s collections.

The Court of Appeals of New York held, in Council of the City of New York u. Giuliani, slip op. 02634, 1999 WL 179257 (N.Y. Mar. 30, 1999), that New York City may not privatize a public city hospital without state statutory authorization. The court found invalid a sublease of a municipal hospital operated by a public benefit corporation to a private, for-profit entity. The court reasoned that the controlling statute prescribed the operation of a municipal hospital as a government function that must be fulfilled by the public benefit corporation as long as it exists, and nothing short of legislative action could put an end to the corporation's existence.In 1969, the New York State legislature enacted the Health and Hospitals Corporation Act (HHCA), establishing the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) as an attempt to improve the New York City public health system. Thirty years later, on a renewed perception that the public health system was once again lacking, the city administration approved a sublease of Coney Island Hospital from HHC to PHS New York, Inc. (PHS), a private, for-profit entity.
