The publication presents the memoirs of the famous historian Serhii Plokhii, who worked at the Department of General History of Dnipropetrovsk State University from 1983 till 1992. During this time he passed all the steps of academic growth from a lecturer to professor, the head of the department. The Department of General History of Dnipropetrovsk State University was a powerful centre of Soviet German studies. But after the socialist camp began to disintegrate, the study of GDR history lost its political relevance. The Germanists faced a problem in which direction the further research should be continued. During the abroad internship Serhii Plokhii found out that the Dnipropetrovsk State Archive contains funds that comprise the documents related to the history of the German colonies. Having returned from the internship, he offered the department staff to develop a new research area related to German colonization. Under his guidance, students and postgraduate students began to work on archival funds which had been previously closed and contained the materials on the colonization, adaptation, economic structure of the German colonies. Due to the active organizational policy Serhii Plokhii managed to involve young researchers - students into the scientific work, the most successful of them became postgraduate students and defended their dissertations on the problems of German studies. This publication presents the memoirs of three students of the historian: Mahomet Ismailov, Nataliia Venher, Oksana Beznosova. The author of each memoir reveals the history of personal relationships with the scientific supervisor, analyzes their own research paths in science. What the memories have in common is that the students note the significant influence of Serhii Plokhii on their academic career and destiny.

This article examines the career of Yakov Kronrod, a Soviet economic theorist, in the context of the larger transformation of Soviet economics in the post-Stalin period. It argues that Kronrod’s debates with his rivals in the “Mathematical Economics” and “Moscow State University” approaches to economics open a window on how the changing relationship between the state and the profession of economics created new research agendas. The transformation of economics in the post-Stalin period into a “Cold War Science” from an “ideological science” made “policy relevance” increasingly important to Soviet economic practitioners and allowed once ideologically hostile ideas to become central to economics. This case study makes a larger intervention into the history of late Soviet society, arguing that seemingly arcane intellectual conflicts were, in fact, a reflection of extremely contentious political battles and that ideology remained a key site of politics deep into the Brezhnev era.

Anatoly S. Skripkin, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor is turning 80 this year. Anatoly S. Skripkin is one of the prominent experts in the field of Sarmatian archaeology. He has started his research in the 60s of the 20th century and made a huge contribution to the study of Early, Middle and Late Sarmatian cultures. His articles and monographs are well known in the scientific world. Having carefully studied the features of the funeral rite, accompanying inventory, and built the chronology and periodization of Sarmatian history, he consistently moved to ethnohistorical reconstructions, offering a complex and logical picture of the history of Iranian-speaking nomadic peoples of the Eurasian steppes in the Early Iron Age. At the same time, Anatoly S. Skripkin became one of the founders of Volgograd archaeology, forming a close-knit team of scientists involved in various areas of Sarmatian history, including interdisciplinary research. He was also one of the first teachers and organizers of young Volgograd State University. The scientist s achievements were appreciated by the management and scientific community – Anatoly S. Skripkin is an Honorary Worker of Higher Professional Education of the Russian Federation, an Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, and has received many awards. Despite his age, the researcher actively participates in science projects, supervises the training of postgraduate students, and takes part in expeditions. He is a tireless traveler. His visit to India, teaching in China and his travels in Egypt have given precise observations to lectures on the history of the Ancient East, and have given a different perspective to his works on the contacts of the Sarmatian world with eastern countries. We congratulate the dear anniversary celebrant on his birthday, wish him strength, health and new creative achievements.

This article argues that despite a citation review is a rarely used research tool, this can be very useful to assess the impact of new research topics, both from the future research direction and the bibliometric perspectives. An explorative study is presented around the research area marked as Industry 4.0 with the conference paper mentioned in the title of this citation review. Even though the given reference paper is relatively recent, there are already twenty-seven citations listed among three different scholar databases. These are Google Scholar, ResearchGate and Semantic Scholar. In light of this, the article provides a bibliometric confirmation and analysis for the progression of the line of research adopted by de Giorgio et al. in the exploration of non-traditional methods using virtual reality technology and human-robot collaboration for adaptive applications in Industry 4.0. Furthermore, it represents a model for the authors&rsquo; self-development and an example of an unconventional approach to scientific work that may help improve related bibliometric research and scholar database strategies to index new articles and topics in the future.

Introduction. The article provides an overview of research regarding word building in the Mordovian languages. The purpose of the study is to highlight the history of the study of word building in the Mordovian languages, and to analyze the works of D. V. Tsygankin, who made a significant contribution to the study of Mordovian derivatology, to the formation of the principles of its teaching and analysis. Materials and Methods. The material of the research is based on word building in the Mordovian languages. The work was performed using descriptive, comparative and historical-typological methods. Results and Discussion. Word building is considered a new research area. In Russia its formation is associated with the name of M. V. Lomonosov. In the design of word building as a academic branch in the 19th century the main role belongs to representatives of four scientific schools in Russia: in Moscow, Kharkov, Kazan and Petersburg. Word building has been considered as an independent object of study only since the mid–1940s, and since the late 1960s as a separate linguistic discipline. This progress became possible primarily thanks to the works by V. V. Vinogradov. A special role in the study of derivational processes in the Mordovian languages belongs to D. V. Tsygankin. The scholar described word formation as a system, defined basic concepts, characterized the methods of word formation, identified productive models, traced changes in word-building morphonology, developed the principles of studying word formation in higher education. Conclusion. A fairly large amount of material has been accumulated on the organization of the word-building system in the Mordovian languages. The number of works in the field of word building continues to grow, but not all of its problems have been resolved. For example, there is a need to develop a new classification of word building methods based on emerging data about the language.

The development of national historical science attracts the attention of modern researchers as the study of “roots” allows to understand the current state of affairs in historical science. The study of individual corporations of historians in the areas of their research gives the opportunity to trace the internal state of things in national and world historical science. These studies can be carried due to the involvement and synthesis of a wide range of sources. The study of the corporation of Ukrainian Soviet historians opens additional perspectives to the researcher in expanding the source base. Namely, to promote the creation of new sources - memories. This publication presents the memoirs of the workshop of Dnipropetrovsk vsesvitnyks of the Ukrainian-American historian Serhii Plohii. In the Dnipropetrovsk period of life, the historian was part of it and headed it for some time. Memoirs that are introduced to the scientific circulation are written by the author from several perspectives: the student and the employee, and the third, the autobiographical, which goes through these two perspectives. Serhii Plokhii explains, from the perspective of the student, why he had chosen the department of world history to specialize in, characterizes the relations with his research supervisor Yuriy Mytsyk, and defines how his scientific carrier was influenced by Yakiv Rubin, the head of the department of world history in 1940-1950s. S. Plokhii characterizes the lecturers of the department, particularly the professor Vasyl` Syrotenko. From the perspective of the colleague, Plokhii describes the relations within the scientific community of the department, especially between different generations of lecturers. He characterizes his scientific interests and experience of being lecturer and administrator. Plokhii describes how the new research trend of the department of world history – history of the German Diaspora – emerged, and speaks about the start of PhD research in this field. Plokhii also defined the reasons why he had to abandon the Dnipropetrovsk University and started the academic career abroad.

The Soviet system for training scientific and pedagogical workers at special postgraduate course was introduced at Lviv State University as a part of its Sovietization. The first group of postgraduates was accepted in the fall–winter of 1940–1941. At that time, four people were taken to postgraduate course of Faculty of History, and two of them (Valentyna Lelyukh and Olexander Kulikov) were enrolled in Department of History of Ukraine. Their official postgraduate courses began on February 1, 1941, and ended on January 31, 1944. Anton Krylenko joined the postgraduates at Department of History of Ukraine in the middle of February, 1941. He was enrolled as a postgraduate student in the second year of study, because he had already studied at postgraduate course in Kyiv. The well-known Ukrainian scientist professor Ivan Krypiakevych was appointed as the official head of these postgraduates at Department of History of Ukraine. As a result of a detailed study of the biographies of these postgraduate students of Lviv University, it was found that they were all from the eastern regions of Ukraine, they only recently had arrived in Lviv and had been the members of the VKP (b) (All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks)). They did not have any more scientific experience, nor any publications, they did not know foreign languages, however, which they were important for the Soviet leadership. This allows to talk about a special selection of postgraduates in the Department of History of Ukraine, especially in comparison with other Departments of the University. Krypiakevych began the work with his postgraduates in late January, 1941. He conducted individual consultations and compiled the lists of necessary literature but at the same time, I. Krypiakevych adapted his work with postgraduates to the official Soviet demands on education. The postgraduate courses at Lviv University were restored after the war. In December, 1945 Nina Tsymbal and Volodymyr Borys were recommended to enroll in the postgraduate study at Department of History of Ukraine. Prof. I.Krypiakevych was again appointed as their scientific tutor. After some time, Borys was moved to postgraduate study at another Department, and only Tsymbal remained under the direction of Krypiakevych. In the next academic year, another graduate of Faculty of History, Vasyl Inkin began his post-graduate course at Department of History of Ukraine. In October, 1947 Olga Omelchuk, which has been a graduate of the Lviv State Pedagogical Institute, became postgraduate too. In November, 1947 Krypiakevych was officially dismissed from the University. After some time, a new supervisor was appointed for these postgraduates.

History Of

The history of the Bolshevik party figured prominently in the reform of postrevolutionary Soviet science. After the Civil War, many revolutionaries who took accelerated special learning courses subsequently became professors and heads of newly organized academic institutions. Their aim was to prepare new ideologically strong specialists for the country. However, despite their considerable contribution to higher education in the prewar USSR, a significant number of “red professors” became victims of repression in the 1930s. Otto Augustovich Lidak — one of the main Leningrad historians of the Bolshevik party in the 1930s — was a bright representative of this generation. As a Bolshevik in the Civil war, he traveled from Lithuania to the Siberian city of Minusinsk and from Petrograd to Persia. Having all the necessary qualities (social background, revolutionary experience, connections, etc.), O. A. Lidak was able to build a successful academic career within a short period. At various times, he was the head of the Institute of History of the CPSU(b) and the Communist Institute of Journalism. He was also a professor in the Leningrad branch of the Communist Academy, Communist University, Leningrad State University. Finally, he was an active member of the Society of Marxist Historians, the Society of Former Political Prisoners and Exiles, etc. Thus, he was involved in the work of all the major party institutions that prepared “pro-Soviet” cadres. This article considers the milestones of Lidak’s biography and also explores his contribution to the historiography of the Russian Revolution.
