Рецензия посвящена монографии сибирского историка Т.К. Щегловой, опубликованной в 2018 г. Автор не только обобщил итоги многолетних исследований адаптации русских крестьян юга Западной Сибири к социально-экономическим и культурно-политическим изменениям 1930-1950х гг., но и глубоко и всесторонне исследовал влияние на их жизнедеятельность кардинального переустройства сельского мира и масштабных исторических событий, которые сопровождались неблагоприятными, а порой и экстремальными внешними условиями. Автор рецензии отмечает, что эта проблематика представляет неотъемлемую часть культурного опыта прошлых поколений. The review is devoted to the monograph of Siberian historian T.K. Shcheglova, published in 2018. The author not only summarized the results of many years of research on the adaptation of Russian peasants in the south of Western Siberia to the socio-economic and cultural-political changes of the 1930s and 1950s, but also deeply and comprehensively investigated the impact on their life of the radical restructuring of the rural world and largescale historical events that were accompanied by unfavorable, and sometimes extreme external conditions. The author of the review notes that this problem is an integral part of the cultural experience of past generations.

Different environmental factors can cause changes in the elemental composition of plants. The research attempts to shift the focus from studying the effect of soil on the elemental composition of plants to assessing the impact of multifactorial ecological blocks on this index. Using the method of atomic absorption spectroscopy, the content K, Na, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Co, Li was determined in the seeds of 5 accessions of a new for Russia crop − vigna (Vigna unguiculata) when growing plants in the south of Western Siberia (54° N 83° E) and in the Crimea (44° N, 34° E)]. The Coefficient of Variation (CV) of the element contents in cowpea accessions in two regions was significant − from 14 to 53%. The highest homeostasis in the accumulation of macro- and microelements was noted in the cultivar Sibirskiy razmer (CV = 15–23%), macroelements − Vigna catjang (CV = 14%). Both accessions were characterized by a reduced accumulation of K, Na, Mg, Mn and, especially, Fe compared to other cultivars. The rest of the accessions showed a high rate of variation in the elemental composition under different conditions (CV = 29–53%). K, Mg, Ca, Zn, and Mn differed by a relatively lower variability of accumulation in cowpea seeds – both by the accessions and the regions of cultivation, while Na, Co, Li, and Cu was the highest. Cultivar Yunnanskaya had the highest rates of Ca (882–1357 mg/kg) and Fe (96–196 mg/kg) accumulation in both regions whereas accessions Krasnaya pozdniaya and Krasno-pestraya had the highest rate of Mg content − 1632–2131 and 1737–1986 mg/kg, respectively.

In our research firstly we provide to generalized conceptual basis for the characteristics of organic beekeeping in Russia, second determine the impact of organic beekeeping on the productivity and the third quality of beekeeping products, to assess the possibility. To assess the problems associated with some of the main parameters, we conducted literature review and analysis of beekeeping products obtained in an apiary that implements the principles of organic beekeeping in the south of Western Siberia (Vengerovo village, Novosibirsk region). Article investigates theoretical and practical aspects of the orientation of apiaries to the production of organic products in the context for growing level of competition.

Abstract Tuvalu and Nauru are isolated developing island nations located in the South Pacific Ocean. In contrast to the established larger Pacific destinations such as Fiji and Tahiti, the tourism industries on both Tuvalu and Nauru are in their infancy. Tourism development in these remote island nations faces a myriad of challenges which include a lack of infrastructure, environmental susceptibility, economic vulnerability, difficulties with access and considerable distances from major tourist markets. This paper reviews tourism on Tuvalu and Nauru and evaluates their current situation regarding potential tourism development through workshops with relevant stakeholders, surveys and subsequent SWOT analysis. The results of the paper outlined a large number of challenges faced by Tuvalu and Nauru due to their geographic location but also highlighted that both Islands possess fascinating and unique features that have the potential to attract niche tourism markets. A key finding of this paper is that the tourism stimulus or potential attraction can also be the chief threat to the islands’ economic survival hence the two edges of the sword. Further research is required to assess the effect of the withdrawal of the Refugee Processing Centre on Nauru’s economy and to evaluate the impact of climate change on Tuvalu’s society and potential adaption strategies.

Zoya Ilyinichna Glezer is the largest Russian micropaleontologist, a specialist in siliceous microfossils — Cenozoic diatoms and silicoflagellates. Since the 1960s, she systematically studied Paleogene siliceous microfossils from various regions of the country and therefore was an indispensable participant in the development of unified stratigraphic schemes for Paleogene siliceous plankton of various regions of the USSR. She made a great contribution to the creation of the newest Paleogene schemes in the south of European Russia and Western Siberia, to the correlations of the Paleogene deposits of the Kara Sea.

The present study discusses the cultural and intellectual movement, now on the point of prevalence in the contemporary Islamic world, which adopts the Western ‘hermeneutical method’ and applies it to the Qur'an in particular, and Islamic religious texts in general. The author shows this movement's complete disregard for the established principles of tafsīr, the traditional Arab-Islamic rules of Qur'anic interpretation and the related Prophetic aḥādīth as preserved in the authenticated Sunna. The author argues that the ‘hermeneutical method’ starts from the preconceived notion that the Islamic heritage is male-centred and biased against women, both theoretically and practically, and, on this basis, proposes that the time has come for an intellectual break with this premise and the re-interpretation of the Qur'an and faith in the light of Western Christian hermeneutics. This paper proposes that this method fails to take historical events and the civilisational Islamic experience into account.
