В статье говорится об этнографической экспедиции ленинградского Государственного музея этнографии, проведенной в 1946 г. в Удмуртии. Она оказалась совершенно забыта, в современной историографии о ней нет почти никаких упоминаний. Между тем, это была первая этнографическая экспедиция Государственного этнографического музея в Удмуртию. Возглавляла ее Т.А. Крюкова – старший научный сотрудник музея. В организации экспедиции оказался задействован и Ленинградский государственный университет, студенты которого проходили таким образом практику. В ходе поездки были обследованы районы проживания удмуртов (северных и южных), а также бесермян и марийцев, проживавших в пределах республики. В результате была собрана достаточно полная, систематически подобранная коллекция этнографических экспонатов (280 предметов). Среди них большую группу составили: предметы одежды, образцы вышивки, узорного тканья; значительной оказалась категория культовых предметов (ритуальная утварь, одежда, жертвенные предметы), а также группа предметов, характеризующих внутренне убранство жилища. Успеху экспедиции способствовала совместная деятельность с научными учреждениями, а также партийными и государственными органами республики. Впоследствии это сотрудничество продолжилось и помогло провести еще ряд экспедиций в Удмуртию. The article talks about the ethnographic expedition of the Leningrad State Museum of Ethnography, carried out in 1946 in Udmurtia. It turned out to be completely forgotten, in modern historiography there is almost no mention of it. Meanwhile, this was the first ethnographic expedition of the State Ethnographic Museum to Udmurtia. It was headed by T.A. Kryukova is a senior researcher at the museum. In organizing the expedition, the Leningrad State University was also involved, whose students underwent practical training in this way. During the trip, the areas of residence of the Udmurts (northern and southern), as well as Besermyans and Mari, who lived within the republic, were examined. As a result, a fairly complete, systematically selected collection of ethnographic exhibits (280 items) was collected. Among them, a large group consisted of: garments, samples of embroidery, patterned weaving; the category of cult objects (ritual utensils, clothing, sacrificial objects) turned out to be significant, as well as a group of objects characterizing the interior decoration of the dwelling. The success of the expedition was facilitated by joint activities with scientific institutions, as well as party and state bodies of the republic. Subsequently, this cooperation continued and helped to conduct in the future a number of expeditions to Udmurtia

Stress negatively affects the mental health of students, causes anxiety and depression, leads to poor academic performance, lowers level of professional training and success in the future. The purpose of the research is to study the state of mental health of medical students to develop recommendations for the prevention of maladaptation. Materials and methods. 252 5-year students aged 20–29 (22 ± 1,1) years, 168 (66,7 %) females and 84 (33,3 %) males (137 students of Belgorod State University and 115 of Altay State Medical University (ASMU)) were examined by medico-sociological and psychometric methods. Results. It was established that every fifth student of the Belgorod State University and every third of the ASMU did not enter the medical university on their own initiative. Less than half (43 %) of Belgorod State University students and 30.4 % of the ASMU ones are convinced that the choice of profession was correct, 35 and 37.4 % are, consequently, completely disappointed with it. Students of Belgorod State University dealt with training stress factors poorer and, as a result, have more pronounced mental symptoms of training stress, difficulties in organizing the daily regimen, irregular nutrition, and fear of the future. Regardless of the region of studying, the number of students not committed to the medical profession, after 5 years of study, is more than 3 times higher among those who enter the university not on their own initiative. Students of the ASMU hit substances, skipped classes, played computer games and took sedative drugs more often to overcome academic stress. The degree of anxiety before the exams in students of Belgorod State University was higher (9 points) than in their peers from the State Medical University (7 points). An extremely high (8–10 points) level of anxiety before exams was characteristic of 75,9 and 44,3 % of students, respectively. The former were more likely to experience clinically significant panic attacks: 27,7 and 6,1 %. Conclusion. Given the high incidence of social phobia (19,1–24,1 %), depression (22,6–32,2 %) and anxiety (21,9– 27,8 %) among medical students, the development and implementation of psycho-correctional programs aimed at the formation of adaptive ways to overcome stress, reduce anxiety and depression is required. This will prevent the development of psychosomatic disorders and addictions.

The problems raised in the doctrine of constitutional law related to the implementation of a decision taken in a referendum in matters of particular importance to the state, as well as the generally marginal use of the institution of popular vote in the constitutional prac-tice, give rise to reflection on the introduction of the institution of a referendum law into the Polish constitutional system. In this article the author considers the advantages and disadvantages of such a solution, analyzing at the same time contemporary normative regulations concerning such acts in other countries. The research leads to the conclusion that despite the risks involved, the refer-endum law should appear in the Polish constitutional system in the future, as it would not only give a chance for a more complete reflection of the will of the collective subject of sovereignty without the necessity of its decoding by the parliament, but it could also be an impulse for the development of the referendum practice in the Republic of Poland. However, it is important to introduce proce-dural barriers that will prevent depreciation of this institution.

The recent presidential elections in 2012 have shown that left-right cleavage was still dominant in France. The redistribution of political forces, strongly awaited by the center (but also by the extremes) did not take place. At the same time, the major issues, such the European unification, the future of the nation, the future of the Republic, the role of the state, continue to cross left and right fields, revealing other cleavages that meet other historical or philosophical contingencies. However, the left-right opposition in France structured contemporary political life, organizing political families, determining the meaning and practice of institutions. Thence, the question is to understand what defines these two political fields and what history brings to their knowledge since the French Revolution, or they are implemented

The paper discusses two types of Chinese calendars – a traditional agricultural calendar “nongli” which existed in China since the 9th century and a Westernized “yuefenpai” calendar that emerged in Shanghai in the late 19th century and flourished until the 30-40s of the 20th century. Apart from the lunar and solar calendars and a table of 24 seasons woodblock “nongli” calendar featured a Stove God Zao-wang alone or with a spouse surrounded by a suite, fortune bringing deities and auspicious symbols, Stove God was believed to ascend to heaven and report good and bad deeds of the family members to the Jade Emperor. New standards of “peoples`” art in PRC borrowed the aesthetics of the traditional woodblock popular prints by proclaiming “new nianhua” as a new tool of propaganda and criticizing “yuefenpai”.“Yuefenpai” differed from “nongli” by modern technology of production and acting as an advertisement, yet early pieces of Shanghai calendars either feature auspicious characters and motifs or introduce current political events, such as accession of the Pu Yi emperor on the throne in 1908 (reigned in 1908–1912). These calendars were seen to be a cheap and easily available media suitable for informing population about news and innovations. The paper attempts to revisit previously established interpretations of some “yuefenpai” calendars. The research is based unpublished pieces from the collections of the State Hermitage, the Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography, academic library of the St.-Petersburg State University, the State Museum of the History of Religion mostly acquired by V.M. Alekseev (1881–1951) during his stays to China.

The article examines the history of the study of the near Chora of Tauric Chersonese on the Heraclean Peninsula in the 1970s–1990s on the basis of the scientific correspondence of the Director of the State museum-reserve «Tauric Chersonese» Inna Antonova and Professor of Moscow state University Vasily Kuzishchin. It is noted that the study of the correspondence of two scientists became possible due to the careful processing of I. A. Antonova documents in the museum’s archive. Particular attention was paid to the issue of the resumption of the Heraclean expedition activities, which was discussed in the letters of scientists to each other. It is concluded that only after studying, systematizing and analyzing all the materials preserved in the Chersonesе archive it will be possible to give a proper assessment of the contribution of I. A. Antonova in the research and public life of the museum, city, country, as well as the contribution of her correspondents, one of whom was V. I. Kuzishchin.

The research, which is based on the documents of the anti-Soviet resistance of 1944–1953, makes an attempt at reconstructing the freedom fighters’ vision of independent Lithuania and analyses the image of the planned (projected) political and socio-economic model of the state, its underlying elements and principles, the evolution and context of the partisans’ political thought. Reflecting on inter-war Lithuania, life therein, resistance against the Soviets and the fierce struggle and sufferings of that time, the partisans sacredly believed in the restoration of independence and had a clear vision of the future state. The critical attitude of those who participated in the resistance towards Lithuania’s statehood had a great impact on the underlying elements of the said vision. In the partisans’ experience and understanding, social exclusion and public distrust of government institutions were among the most acute problems of the Republic of Lithuania which, in their conviction, caused the catastrophic crisis of the state and the society that resulted in the loss of independence in 1940. Leaders of the underground movement were fully aware of the ills and failures of the past and thus constructed an ideal, a dream of a comprehensively stronger and affluent state, democratic regime and fairer governance of the country. The partisans’ vision of a modern independent Lithuanian state was developed under the influence of the political thought of the rural intelligentsia, thus reflecting the outlook of an ordinary peasant farmer and akin attitudes of rural intellectuals. Realising that Lithuania existed on the divide between the Western and Eastern civilizations, partisan leaders made every attempt to emphasize their western identity and mentality, identified and positioned themselves as the outpost of Western civilization and European culture. Participants of the resistance movement followed basically social democratic, Christian ideals and values and sought to restore a modern democratic parliamentary republic free of social exclusion where social justice and solidarity would be the predominant components of state regulation. In summary, it can be stated that the present-day socio-economic model of the Nordic welfare state (that of Denmark, Norway, Sweden or Finland), which in its core is rather socialistic, is for the most part in line with the freedom fighters’ vision of the future state and was considered by them the most acceptable. Although present-day Lithuania does not fully satisfy their vision, Lithuanian resistance fighters expressed the eternal strive of people and nations for freedom, material and spiritual wellbeing and social justice.
