Straipsnyje analizuojama dviejų filosofijos istorikų – Romano Plečkaičio ir Alfredo Maikhrovichiaus – vaidmuo plėtojant Lietuvos ir Baltarusijos filosofinę tradiciją. Nacionalinės filosofijos tradicija kaip tyrimų sritis buvo viena iš slaptos rezistencijos formų sovietmečiu.Posovietiniu laikotarpiu tautos filosofija tapo vienu svarbiausių stulpų, kuriais rėmėsi tautinis atgimimas. Šiuo požiūriu Plečkaičio ir Maikhrovichiaus, kaip mąstytojų, istorikų, grindusių Lietuvos ir Baltarusijos filosofinę tradiciją, poveikis savo krašto tautinės kultūros plėtrai ir yra aptariamas šiame straipsnyje. Visų pirma, analizuojant nacionalinės kultūros vystymąsi, kreipiamas dėmesys į Lietuvos ir Baltarusijos filosofinių diskursų interferenciją bei nacionalinių filosofijos istorijų genealoginę tradiciją. Daroma išvada, kad mūsų regiono intelektinė dinamika demonstruoja ir mokslininius, ir ideologinius veiksnius.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: Lietuvos filosofija, Baltarusijos filosofija, tautinės kultūros paveldas, Plečkaitis, Maikhrovich.R. Plečkaitis and Belarusian Tradition of Studies in the National History of PhilosophyValery Yevarouski   SummaryThe article analyses the role of two historians of philosophy – Romanas Plečkaitis and Alfred Maikhrovich – in the philosophical traditions of Lithuania and Belarus. The history of national philosophy as a field of knowledge was one of the legal forms of mimicry of the national resistance in Soviet times. In post-Soviet period, national philosophy became one of the important pillars of the national revival. From this point of view the impact of Plečkaitis and Maikhrovich as the founders of the Lithuanian and Belarusian philosophical traditions on the development of national culture of their countries is considered through the interference of the Belarusian and Lithuanian philosophical discourses or the genealogical tradition of the national history of philosophy. It means that the dynamic of the intellectual culture of our region must simultaneously have both the scientific and ideological factors.Keywords: Lithuanian philosophy, Belarusian philosophy, national cultural heritage, Plečkaitis, Maikhrovich.8px;">

The Akkulsk Mosque, located about 30 kilometers from the city of Semey in northeastern Kazakhstan, was built between 1905 and 1907. With the establishment of Soviet power, the building of the mosque was used as a school and a club and ceased to function as a mosque. In the 1970s, as many inhabitants were living in the village, the building of the mosque began to decay and is currently in a critical situation. Despite the decaying process, people continue to worship the mosque as a sacred object. This allows us to rethink the role of the mosque as a place of spiritual worship, to analyze the unusual form of Islamic religiosity in the post-Soviet period as well as the impact of the Soviet regime on Islam in Kazakhstan.

The article is devoted to the study of the party model of Russian parliamentarism in post-soviet period. The focus is on the issues of party representation and its correlation with the distribution of the managerial positions and introduction of collective legislation at State Duma. These issues are examined from the point of view of reaching cross-party consensus and implementation of fair parliament party representation principle. According to the author Russian parliamentarism model aims at reaching full-fledged party consensus that corresponds better to the principles of popular representation than strict parliament polarization along the line of “authority-opposition”. Understanding of those issues by the majority of the players was noted from the very start of the State Duma activities, in spite of the acute conflicts in the 1990-ies.The author draws the conclusion that the equation of party representation continues to grow at the level of managerial positions in the parliament that allows to improve cooperation of the parties and to reduce authority and opposition conflicts. Thereby the Russian parliamentarism model makes an important contribution to the stabilization of socio-political situation of the country.

The author of the publication reviews the photobook “Palimpsests”, published in 2018 in the publishing house “Ad Marginem Press” with the support of the Heinrich Böll Foundation. The book presents photos of post-Soviet cities taken by M. Sher. Preface, the author of which is the coordinator of the “Democracy” program of the Heinrich Böll Foundation in Russia N. Fatykhova, as well as articles by M. Trudolyubov and K. Bush, which accompany these photos, contain explanation of the peculiarities of urban space formation and patterns of its habitation in the Soviet Union times and in the post-Soviet period. The author of the publication highly appreciates the publication under review. Analyzing the photographic works of M. Sher and their interpretation undertaken in the articles, the author of the publication agrees with the main conclusions of N. Fatykhova, M. Trudolyubov and K. Bush with regards to the importance of the role of the state in the processes of urban development and urbanization in the Soviet and post-Soviet space, but points out that the second factor that has a key influence on these processes is ownership relations. The paper positively assesses the approach proposed by the authors of the photobook to the study of the post-Soviet city as an architectural and landscape palimpsest consisting mainly of two layers, “socialist” and “capitalist”. The author of the publication specifically emphasizes the importance of analyzing the archetypal component of this palimpsest, pointing out that the articles published in the reviewed book do not pay sufficient attention to this issue. Particular importance is attributed by the author to the issue of metageography of post-Soviet cities and meta-geographical approach to their exploration. Emphasizing that the urban palimpsest is a system of realities, each in turn including a multitude of ideas, meanings, symbols, and interpretations, the author points out that the photobook “Palimpsests” is actually an invitation to a scientific game with space, which should start a new direction in the study of post-Soviet urban space.

Suicide is a global health issue accounting for at least 800,000 deaths per annum. Numerous models have been proposed that differ in their emphasis on the role of psychological, social, psychiatric and neurobiological factors in explaining suicide risk. Central to many models is a stress-diathesis component which states that suicidal behavior is the result of an interaction between acutely stressful events and a susceptibility to suicidal behavior (a diathesis). This article presents an overview of studies that demonstrate that stress and dysregulated hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity, as measured by cortisol levels, are important additional risk factors for suicide. Evidence for other putative stress-related suicide risk factors including childhood trauma, impaired executive function, impulsivity and disrupted sleep are considered together with the impact of family history of suicide, perinatal and epigenetic influences on suicide risk.

Explores the role of the Dutch in the Indies from 1595, when sailors from Amsterdam first arrived in the islands, to 1942, when the Japanese invaded the colony and inflicted a devastating defeat upon the Dutch. The history of the Dutch in the Indonesian archipelago is critical to understanding the impact of the Japanese occupation after 1942, and the nature of the war crimes committed by the Japanese. This is because the ultimate goal of the Japanese occupiers was to erase all aspects of Dutch culture and influence the islands. The chapter begins with an examination of the early Dutch settlement of the islands, and the development of the colonial economy. It then discusses the so-called “Ethical Policy,” which sought to unify the islands under Dutch rule and implement European ideas about civilization, culture, and prosperity. The chapter looks at the colony’s social structure prior to World War II and closes with a discussion of the colony’s preparations for war with the Japanese in 1942. A short postscript explains what occurred between August 1945, when the Japanese surrendered, and December 1949, when the Netherlands East Indies ceased to exist.

This chapter is concerned with the role of oil and gas in the economic development of the global economy. It focuses on the context in which established and newer oil and gas producers in developing countries must frame their policies to optimize the benefits of such resources. It outlines a history of the issue over the last twenty-five years. It considers oil and gas as factor inputs, their role in global trade, the role of oil prices in the macroeconomy and the impact of the geopolitics of oil and gas. It then considers various conventional views of the future of oil and gas in the primary energy mix. Finally, it challenges the drivers behind these conventional views of the future with an emphasis on why they may prove to be different from what is expected and how this may change the context in which producers must frame their policy responses.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought new challenges to the global community, reinforcing the role of public health in society. The main measures to combat it had (and still have) a huge impact on the daily lives of citizens. This investigation aimed to identify and monitor the population’s perceptions about how it faced this period and the impact on health, well-being, and daily life. In this study, we describe the main trends observed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of mental health status, confidence in the capacity of the health services to respond to the pandemic, and the use of health services by participants. The online survey collected responses from 171,947 individuals ≥16 years of age in Portugal, over a period of 15 weeks that started on 21 March 2020. Participants could fill the questionnaire once or weekly, which enabled us to analyse trends and variations in responses. Overall, 81% of the respondents reported having felt agitated, anxious, or sad during the COVID-19 pandemic; 19% did not experience these feelings. During the confinement period, the proportion of participants feeling agitated, anxious, or sad every day/almost every day ranged between 20 and 30%, but since the deconfinement this proportion decreased. Around 30% reported having more difficulty getting to sleep or to sleep all night; 28.4% felt more agitated; 25.5% felt sadder, discouraged, or cried more easily; and 24.7% felt unable to do everything they had to do, women more frequently than men. Overall, 65.8% of the participants reported feeling confident or very confident in the health services’ capacity to respond to the challenges associated with the pandemic, and this confidence increased over time. Concerning the people who needed a consultation, 35.6% had one in person and 20.8% had one remotely, but almost 44% did not have one due to cancellation by the service (27.2%) or their own decision not to go (16.3%). At this unusual time in which we find ourselves and based on our findings, it is essential to continue monitoring how the population is facing the different phases of the pandemic until it officially ends. Analysing the effects of the pandemic from the point of view of citizens allows for anticipating critical trends and can contribute to preventative action.
