Подборка документов посвящена малоизученной в отечественной историографии теме и является своеобразным откликом на имеющуюся потребность освещения некоторых вопросов, связанных с последствиями революции и гражданской войны для российского общества. Впервые представлены документы, связанные с деятельностью Комиссии по делам бывших красных партизан и красногвардейцев, которая выполняла не только функции органа социальной защиты бывших комбатантов революции, но и отслеживала их умонастроения, послевоенную общественную и личную жизнь, давая или лишая их права на карьерный рост, пенсии, бесплатное медицинское обслуживание. Отложившиеся документы позволяют проследить общие тенденции социальной адаптации бывших красных партизан, отношение к ним властей. The selection of documents is related to the subject insufficiently studied in Russian historiography, and presents a response to an existing need to study the effects the Revolution and the civil war made on the Russian society. For the first time the documents concerning the Former Red Partisans and Red Guards Commission activities are presented. The Commission functioned not only as a social security institution for former combatants of the Revolution, but was tracking their mindset, post-war public and private life, giving or denying them the right to career development, pension, free medical care. Holdover documents allow tracing the general trends of social adaptation of former red partisans and the authorities’ attitude to them.

The Right

This chapter considers the Court’s jurisprudence on the freedom of speech and religion. The Court’s work on the freedom of speech examines familiar conflicts—such as between speech and public order, or speech and the privacy of reputation of others—but in an unfamiliar context where the Court has often had to contend with the implications of the country’s internal armed conflict. Thus, for example, the Court has had to weigh the damage that might be done by publishing the statements of illegal armed groups and the effect of statements linking public officials with those groups. The Court’s jurisprudence on freedom of religion had sought to recognize plurality in a climate where Catholicism has historically dominated public and private life. This chapter considers both the Court’s jurisprudence striking down core provisions of the Concordat treaty with Rome, and its recognition of the right of conscientious objection from military service.

The purpose of the article is to trace the connection between the change in the religious policy of the state and the anti-clerical protests of the 2016-2020s. Statements against Church restitution and the construction of churches have caused extensive discussion, which has given rise to a number of contradictory, sometimes mutually exclusive interpretations. According to the author, the reason for these protests was not private reasons, but deeper reasons related to the religious policy of the state. The author pays special attention to changes in religious legislation, which led to increased control over the private life of citizens and infringement of the right to freedom of ideological choice. The article points out that the religious issue has divided Russian society: the ruling class on the one hand, and a significant part of citizens on the other, have become increasingly different in understanding the place and role of religion in the life of the country. According to the author, the protests in Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg, and Moscow were special cases of numerous manifestations of politicization of society and growing dissatisfaction with the state of state-confessional relations in modern Russia. The author concludes that the degree of conflict, the high level of solidarity actions, a diverse and resonant series of events, as well as the level of ideological discussion allow us to classify these events as political and plebiscite.

The Romanian legislature has shown great concern in the past few years in offering an adequate level of protection to all fundamental rights accordingly with the ECHR’s ever evolving jurisprudence. As such, the crime of violation of private life (article 226 Criminal Code) has been introduced, for the first time, in the Romanian criminal law. In its attempt to preserve the right balance between the freedom of the press and the right to private life, the Parliament has introduced a special justification clause, according to article 226 para. (4) d) Criminal Code. This article aims to analyze to what extent this clause respects the principles set by the ECHR and the Romanian Constitutional Court regarding the predictability and the clarity of the criminal law provisions. The article will also try to emphasize some aspects which could be taken into consideration by the judicial authorities when analyzing the applicability of the justification clause at least until there will be an early jurisprudence.

The peculiarities of legal regulation of pension provision of servicemen and their families on the territory of modern Ukraine in the XVIII–XX centuries are investigated. In particular, it has been established that for the first time the right to pension provision was regulated by Peter I in 1720 in the Marine Statute, which provided service pension, disability pension and survivor’s pension. It was also determined that during the royal period, the provision of pensions was not properly arranged. The new pension system for servicemen began to be built up after the overthrow of the tsarist regime, which was the reason for the October Revolution of the Bolsheviks, but it was far from perfect. Consolidation of the right to pension, its types and conditions of appointment at the normative level did not mean the receipt of pensions. From 1919 till 1924, pension provision for servicemen and their families on the territory of the Ukrainian SSR developed as a republican, in accordance with the regulations of the normative legal acts adopted by the SNK of the UkrSSR, and from 1924, all-Union bodies were formed, therefore further legislation, in particular the one that concerned pension provision, has developed not as a republican, but as all-union. It was also found out that despite the fact that in the period of the Great Patriotic War and the post-war period, the social security of servicemen in general, and pensions in particular, were placed in priority areas, their financial situation and members of their families were at a very low level. It has been established that a number of features of retirement provision for servicemen and members of their families, established in pre-Soviet and Soviet periods, have survived to the present. In particular, it is relevant to types of pensions, stimulation of a later retirement, and differentiation of the size of the pension depending on the disability group, etc.

On July 1, 2014, the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (the Court or the Grand Chamber) delivered its judgment in the case of S.A.S. v. France pertaining to the legality of the French ban on wearing full-face veils in public, introduced by Law No. 2010-1192 of October 11, 2010. The decision comes on the heels of a number of related judgments in adjacent areas of dispute circumscribing the right to privacy and religion and delimiting the circumstances that may justify interference with such fundamental human rights. In the present case, the Court for the first time had to deal with a general ban on certain clothing that arguably, for those most affected, epitomizes the manifestation of their religion. Accepting the principle of “living together (le ‘vivre ensemble’)” as an inherent element of the “rights and freedoms of others” in the French context and conceding a wide margin of appreciation to the respondent state in preserving that principle, the Court found no violation of the applicant’s rights to respect for her private life (Article 8) and to freedom of religion (Article 9) under the European Convention on Human Rights (the Convention).

Sophistês (from sophos, “wise”) originally designated epic poets, prophets, sages, Presocratic philosophers and others with wisdom beneficial to society. Sometime after c. 450 bce it was applied to a new kind of wise people. These men were professional showmen and teachers, the first to provide education beyond the traditional basic subjects—music, poetry, physical training, and arithmetic. They were entrepreneurs, rivals, and competitors who expected to be paid. They traveled from city to city, charging fees for teaching and for their public performances. Each Sophist taught whatever subjects he wished, subjects ranging from mathematics and astronomy to grammar and literary criticism. Many Sophists had interests in language and taught techniques of reasoning, argument, and public speaking that could be useful in public and private life. They came from different cities in the Greek world. They were regarded as attractive and fascinating, but suspicious and dangerous, attitudes reflected in literature, most prominently in Plato’s writings. Plato contrasts individual Sophists with Socrates and sophistry with philosophy. The negative connotations of “sophistry,” “sophism,” and “sophist” are due ultimately to Plato’s influence and should not lead us to suppose that the Sophists engaged in and taught nothing but how to reason badly and construct misleading arguments. They were important in many areas. To them is due the beginnings of the study of language and speech, which stands at the origins of grammar and rhetoric. Others puzzled about the gods and the origins of religion. Some contributed to mathematics. Most importantly, they stand at the origins of moral, political and social philosophy, anthropology, and political theory. Plato’s negative portrayal dominated until the 20th century and the few exceptions interpreted the Sophists uncritically as forerunners of their own philosophical views. Study of the Sophists requires access to information about them, not just to the interpretations of others. This information falls into three sorts: (1) Actual words of the Sophists—complete works and excerpts from works that do not survive in their entirety; (2) summaries and paraphrases of their works; (3) reports in ancient authors of their views and other information about them; and (4) interpretations by ancient and modern authors. The first three sorts form the basis of valid research. They were collected for the first time in 1903 by Diels—Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker, 6th ed. (1952)—which remains the basic reference point. The Sophists have been viewed from many angles which cannot all be represented adequately in this bibliography, which is intended as a guide to books and articles useful for understanding who the Sophists were, their methods, aims, and achievements, how they were viewed in antiquity, and their contributions to philosophical thought.
