The purpose of the study was a hygienic assessment and generalization of practical experience of the St. Petersburg Rospotrebnadzor Office and the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in St. Petersburg acquired within the framework of the established powers in supervision and control of radiation safety of the population and combating radiation terrorism when preparing and holding mass events of 2018 FIFA World Cup in St. Petersburg. Materials and methods. We used the materials on planning and implementing measures to ensure radiation safety of the population and reports of the St. Petersburg Rospotrebnadzor Office and the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in St. Petersburg for 2016–2018. Results. We made a hygienic assessment of comprehensive measures for supervision and control over ensuring radiation safety of the population in preparation for mass sporting events, summarized the practice and efficient results of organizing and conducting monitoring of the radiation situation, radiation monitoring at infrastructure facilities, including radiological studies during the construction and reconstruction of sports facilities, and radiation control of baggage X-ray inspection systems used at the sites of sporting events for additional security measures. A scheme of organizing radiation monitoring of building materials and products delivered to sports facilities under construction was developed to eliminate excessive costly spectrometric studies while guaranteeing effectiveness of radiation monitoring. We demonstrated that an important step in the integrated approach to ensuring radiation safety was the control over introduction of additional safety measures immediately at the facilities operating on radioactive substances and posing radiation hazard in St. Petersburg, taking into account the category of their potential radiation hazard, as well as the preparedness of specialized Rospotrebnadzor units to promptly respond to emergency situations. Activities of the Regional Interdepartmental Operational Headquarters for Security showed absolute efficiency of interdepartmental cooperation between federal and municipal executive authorities.

Japan and the Republic of Korea have been going through a painful process of reconciliation since World War II. But with the momentum created by the FIFA World Cup and the high popularity of Korean pop culture in Japan, the trend shifted and the two countries seem to be enjoying a more amicable relationship. This paper aspires to understand when and how the steps toward reconciliation were taken between the two countries. The overarching research questions are: what steps were taken, and what channels of communication contributed to or hindered the process of reconciliation? Section 1 first lays the historical context of the dispute, and Section 2 assesses the diplomatic steps taken toward reconciliation by applying Assefa's reconciliation model, which leads to an analysis of discrepancy between the governments and the civil societies. Section 3 considers the impact of the FIFA World Cup in 2002, when momentum for friendship was reinforced by the various exchange activities at civil society level, as well as the Korean pop culture. The in-depth interview adds insights and public opinion polls clarify the perceived status of reconciliation. Section 4 concludes by returning to the more generalized issue of how communication between the two nation states has changed with the information technology, which is key to understanding the dynamism of the lingering reconciliation process.

Introduction. Mass events, including sports, such as the World Cup, can contribute to the emergence of public health risks that must be identified and eliminated. Material and methods. We studied data on air pollution, drinking water and soil, information on pollution sources, locations of stationary and mobile observation posts and Saransk infrastructure facilities intended for the FIFA World Cup 2018. The study used methods of hygienic assessment, analysis, and synthesis, comparisons, and generalizations, as well as assessments of risk to public health. Results. Moderate inhalation risks (HI up to 1.14) for respiratory organs may form fine dust (PM10 and PM2.5). The risk to public health during oral acute short-term exposure to chemicals coming from drinking water and soil did not exceed the permissible level. The concentrations of certain elements and chemicals in drinking water exceeded hygienic standards (boron up to 2.36 times, iron up to 2.88 times, fluorides up to 1.48 times). The content of benzo (a) pyrene in the soil exceeded the hygienic standard by 6.49 times. Discussion. The results of similar studies carried out during the period of preparation for the holding of global mass events in Russia in 2013-2019 confirmed the results and conclusions of this work. The main route of exposure of chemicals to the health of the population, guests, and participants of the events is inhalation. Additional control is needed for dust, including PM10 and PM2.5. Conclusion. Revision and modification of the existing system of placement of posts monitoring the quality of the environment are not required. Additional control is needed with respect to PM10 and PM2.5 (atmospheric air), fluorides, boron, iron, nitrates, and strontium (drinking water), benzo (a) pyrene (soil).
