This paper deals with the structured comparison of the former ruble monetary union with the euro currency area. As a basis, developments in the ruble currency area and in the Eurozone are traced. In a comparison of the central components of the currency areas, similarities, such as the heterogeneity of the states, and differences, for example the role of the central bank and the legal foundations of the currency area, are outlined. Subsequently, the significant historical exit causes of the states from the Soviet Union out of the ruble currency zone are presented. In addition to obvious structural factors, such as the unequal power structure, also practical reasons, such as the insufficient provision of cash for some areas, are considered. Regarding overconfidence, the sub-categories overestimation and overplacement can be detected mainly regarding the behavior of the administration of the former USSR. The third sub-category, overprecision, can primarily be found in the behavior the European Central Bank and their efforts to stabilize the Euro. Based on the findings, the conclusion can be drawn, that there are certain parallels between the two currency areas. However, the available options for action and mechanisms at the political and economic level in the Eurozone today are more wide-ranging than at the beginning of the 1990s in the ruble currency area.

The recent Kasenkina and Samarin affairs, which led to a breach of consular relations between the United States and the Soviet Union, have raised a number of legal issues relating to the status of foreign consular officials. The legal principles involved, however, have been beclouded by widespread misunderstanding of the nature and scope of consular privileges and immunities, by obviously baseless charges made by the Soviet Government against that of the United States, and by the apparent reluctance of the latter to press to its fullest extent a sound legal case.

The pandemic environment, which emerged in 2020, makes it clear that analysis of historical experience of adaptation of expert training system during crises is very urgent. This article discusses the experience of medical schools in the Soviet Union during World War II, adaptation and rearrangement of the system under difficult crisis conditions, their results. New tasks of medical schools are determined, which occurred during the war, and methods of their solution. It is concluded that high shortage of medical doctors occurring with entry of the Soviet Union into the war was overcome by means of preservation (evacuation) and expansion (establishment of new medical schools, departments and courses, reorganization and reprofiling) of the base for medical personnel training, as well as emergency rearrangement of unified national educational plans and programs of medical doctors’ training. The principle of medical education established by the Soviet system of qualified medical personnel training during the war as well as the measures, coordinated by various federal and republican authorities regarding medical school, demonstrated their efficiency.

This article explores the interrelatedness of ideology and everyday practices, which initiate and shape bordering practices in landscape. By analysing a case study of (re)arranging Estonian land usage borders after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, it gives a glance at how the conflicts that arise from bordering practices are reconciled on the individual and collective level. The empirical material of the study is based on the minutes of the Estonian Parliament (1990–1995), semistructured interviews, and land maps. The article maps the intermingling of (a) ideology, (b) everyday practices, and (c) bordering practices on changes in the landscape during the period of legislative turbulence in the 1990s. The article suggests that the processes of shaping borders in landscape are dynamic, depending on complex interrelations of identity and ideology. Additionally, past layers become important both in negotiating everyday lives and in negotiating legal issues.

Canada's claim against the Soviet Union for compensation for damages caused by the re-entry and crash in 1978 of the Soviet satellite, Cosmos 954, was based primarily on the 1972 Convention on International Liability for Damage Caused by Space Objects (hereinafter referred to as the Liability Convention) and also on the Agreement on the Rescue of Astronauts, the Return of Astronauts and the Return of Objects (hereinafter referred to as the Rescue and Return Agreement). It gave rise to several legal issues concerning the interpretation of these conventions. They are of relevance to states seeking compensation for damage caused by space debris.

AbstractThis article examines the situation of the Russian minority in Estonia, focusing on legal issues. It traces back the historical reasons for the current minority problem which can be found in the demographic changes that took place after the country's annexation by the Soviet Union. The author examines the Estonian laws most relevant to the minorities and their compliance with international human rights standards. He sees the cardinal point from a legal perspective in the fact that international law basically does not restrict the sovereign right of a state to regulate its citizenship. Thus the author comes to the conclusion that Estonian laws in general do not violate international law. He points out that it would be false to reduce the problem to this legal issue and shows how the involvement of international organizations helped to mitigate a situation that could potentially lead to a violent confrontation.
