The study aims to identify the main theoretical and methodological criteria, important in shaping the scientific vision applied to the approach of the subject. The author delimits two distinct periods in the evolution of the singer’s repertoire: the late Soviet period (1968–1991) and the post-Soviet period (1991–1999). The main focus is on the Soviet epoch. Among the documentary sources are the materials stored in the IPNA archive – “TeleradioMoldova” Company, the personal files of the artists, the minutes of the Artistic Council, the musical scores, the library of the editorial offices within the institution. To substantiate the theoretical framework of the study, the author argues the need to instrumentalize the concepts of „Soviet folk song”, „mass song”, „creator&producer networks”, „modernization”, „revitalization”, „invented traditions”, „folklorization”, „new folk songs”, „neo-traditional music”.

The paper analyzes the historical retrospective and a comparative study of the verification of court decisions in criminal cases. The author traces the emergence of the idea of checking court decisions and the first experiments of its implementation, the transition from the "court with a judge" to the "audit" procedure for monitoring court decisions, and then to the consideration of complaints against court decisions as a continuation of the dispute between the parties and the formation of methods and procedures for reviewing criminal cases, depending on the subject of appeal. The features of the Romano-German and English models of judicial review are highlighted. Special attention is paid to the Soviet system of verification of sentences, rulings and definitions as the basis of the socialist model of judicial review and its subsequent transformation in Russia in the post-Soviet period. The monograph is intended for researchers, teachers, undergraduate, specialist, master's, postgraduate and doctoral students, as well as practicing lawyers.

Modern Baltic Paganism grew out of nineteenth- and twentieth-century folklore research into the folk music, folklore and traditional ethnic cultures of Latvia and Lithuania. Research into native Latvian daina and Lithuanian daino folk songs with their rustic beauty, symbolic richness, and intriguing linkages to ancient Indo-European cultures and religions generated a new sense of pride and ethnic identity among Latvians and Lithuanians. Spiritually inclined folklorists developed religious movements that recreated rituals and beliefs linked to the dainas and dainos. Repressed during Soviet times, these movements have reemerged and flourished in the post-Soviet period. There can be no doubt that music, which over the centuries has played such a crucial role in the transmission of Latvian and Lithuanian folk traditions including native Pagan religions, will remain front and center in the continuing evolution of modern Baltic Pagan religions in Latvia and Lithuania and beyond.

So far in the twenty-first century, triumphalism has dominated Russian culture. As manifest in popularized history and film, this wave has often been described by recourse to interpretive paradigms derived from a neo-Soviet or neo-socialist realist orientation, particularly when the subject is war. While understandable, this interpretive practice cannot account for salient productions that upstage Soviet conventions by reconfiguring the Russian historical experience along a narrative trajectory anchored by two scenarios diat constitute the alpha and omega of national achievement and pride: Aleksandr Nevskii and the Time of Troubles. Tapping into deep structures of myth, contemporary reproductions of these two tie their significance explicitly to the post-Soviet period. Supported by the state and church, their increasing traction in war narratives facilitates a new discourse of nationalism that supersedes Soviet precedent, reconfigures traditional domains of triumphalism, and sets a standard for future constructions of Russian history that eclipses key problems of the real or imagined past.

This publication is a review of a new book by A. A. Petrov devoted to the history of the study of the Tungus-Manchu languages in Russia from the 18th century till the beginning of the 21st century. Reference books of this type on the Tungus-Manchu languages and other languages of the peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East of Russia have not been published for over 70 years, and they are especially relevant due to the increase in the volume of publications on these languages, a significant part of which are regional publications of universities and Siberian scientific centers. The main part of the book is the literature on the Tungus-Manchu languages dating back to the 20th century. It is divided into three periods: the pre-revolutionary period (1900—1917), the Soviet period (1917—1991), and the Russian post-Soviet period (1992—2000). There is a certain logic in this: the biographies of most researchers of the older generation fit into one period, and each period reflects certain trends in views on the subject and asks of the study. The book includes a number of supplements for reference. These applications make the book by A. A. Petrov a convenient textbook for students of specialized universities, a guide for refresher courses for teachers of the Tungus-Manchu languages and independent work of teachers, and a guide for foreign researchers who may have difficulties with the Russian bibliography on the subject. A. A. Petrov’s book is unambiguously useful as an everyday reference book of literature on the Tungus-Manchu languages, although, of course, researchers of biographies of scientists as well as researchers of some special problems of studying Tungus-Manchu languages will turn to other sources that provide special requests.

In the article, the author analyzes the transformation of the dichotomy “Europe – Russia” in contemporary Georgian intellectual discourse as well as strategies and forms of positive and negative ideologization of the West and Russia. We state that the hypertrophied role of European and Russian images in the Georgian discourse has resulted from the belief of elites in the collective West as an alternative to Russian infl uence. We analyze the main strategies of forming a positive image of Europe in Georgian intellectual discourse, believing that the development of European motifs and images by several generations of Georgian intellectuals led to the emergence of a unique Georgian Europeanism and the concept of the “Non Typical European” Georgian nation. The development of European images depends on the formation and promotion of the image of Russia as a universal Other. It is assumed that the negative mythologization of Russia resulted from the historical trauma of the loss of statehood, Georgia’s forced history in the Russian Empire and the USSR, as well as the failures in the Russian-Georgian relations in the post-Soviet period. Overall, the author believes that Russian and European narratives have become invented traditions of Georgian identity that infl uence the strategies of elites in Georgian foreign policy.

The article is devoted to a general historiographic review of domestic and foreign literature on the study of the problem of the use of female labor on railways. The subject of the research is the publications of pre-revolutionary, soviet and modern researchers on the issue of women's contribution to the development of the railway industry of the Russian empire in the XIX - early XX centuries. The author attempts to answer the question how the place and role of women in railway activities before 1917 in the pre-revolutionary and soviet periods, as well as after the collapse of the USSR, was assessed. The article concluded that the literature of the post-soviet period significantly expanded the scope of studying the problem, but still relies on the historiography of the soviet period.

The author conducts a retrospective analysis of the institution of subject matter jurisdiction in Russian civil proceedings. The institution of subject matter jurisdiction originates in the pre-revolutionary period. To determine the mechanism of delimitation of competence between jurisdictional bodies, such concepts as “exclusive jurisdiction” or “establishment” were used. During this period, a distinction was made between the competence of administrative and judicial bodies.The concept of “subject matter jurisdiction” was enshrined in Soviet legislation for the first time ever. Moreover, in the scientific literature, subject matter jurisdiction is often identified with court jurisdiction. The main task of subject matter jurisdiction in the Soviet period was the division of competence between the courts of general jurisdiction and state arbitration. During this period, the subject and object criteria for delimitation of competence between the courts of general jurisdiction and other jurisdictional bodies, which are currently used, were formulated.In the post-Soviet period, the judiciary was finally separated from the executive and the courts acquired particular significance in resolving jurisdictional disputes. All large categories of cases were transferred to the jurisdiction of the judiciary. The creation of a system of arbitration courts has led to an even greater importance of the institution of subject matter jurisdiction. It was in the post-Soviet period that the categories of “subject matter jurisdiction” and “court jurisdiction” were finally delimited. As a result of the study, the author concludes that there is some continuity in the development of the institution of subject matter jurisdiction.

The subject of this research is the key, dominant and most consistent development trends of the national constitutional law in post-Soviet period (1990’s – present). The author examines the following trends: succession, reception, internationalization and cyclicity of the development of constitutional law, as well as expansion and conceptual changes in its content. Each trend is substantiated by the provisions of constitutional legal doctrine, current Constitution, legislation and constitutional practice. The main conclusions consist in the thesis that the determined trends are inherent namely to the modern constitutional law, rather than Soviet or prerevolutionary stages of its development. Moreover, if separate trends coincide with the modern constitutional law of foreign countries, in Russia they have peculiar content, justified by the specificity of state legal development of the country. The evolution of Russian modern constitutional law takes place at the intersection of constitutional distinctness and constitutional universalization. Constitutional distinctness implies the synthesis of succession, certain cyclicity in the constitutional legal sphere, and presence of the unique legal phenomena characteristic to the national constitutional legal system. The manifestations of universalization of the modern Russian constitutional law include its reception and internationalization.

The issues of improving the effectiveness of counteracting foreign trade crimes have been relevant in the theoretical and practical sense during the whole post-Soviet period of our history and became especially urgent when the Customs Code of the Eurasian Economic Union entered into force in 2018. The authors research the patters of foreign trade crimes and examine the specific features of evading customs duties for natural or legal persons levied according to customs and tax legislations. The analysis of judicial-investigation practice on crimes under Art. 194 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation allowed the authors to conclude that these crimes are accompanied by vigorous actions aimed at covering them, and the most complex and publically dangerous type of crime is hiding the foreign trade operations themselves, which could be of serial, group or organized character and is often carried out through bogus organizations. In cases of interference from the law enforcement bodies, the suspects or the accused persons deny the intention to evade taxes, and claim that they were ignorant about how certain goods entered the territory of Russia and (or) the Eurasian Economic Union, which makes it especially relevant to reveal criminal motivation as a pertinent fact included in the subject matter according to Art. 73 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. It prompted the authors to formulate recommendations on improving the effectiveness of investigators in determining the circumstances of the above-mentioned actions.
