"Вечная история о жизни и о смерти, и о людях, которым не дано выбирать. Жизнь, смерть, бог, дьявол... и что ещё? Да, обязательно должно быть что-то ещё. Психиатрическая больница и окружающее. Что видишь? Насколько глубоко разрешили сковырнуть... слои? И разве вчерашняя Вселенная не отличается цветом от сегодняшней, а завтрашняя не скроет полностью предыдущую? И какой Мир на самом деле? Мы знаем всё до тонкостей, без сомнений. Жаль, но нет иного выхода, как идти со всеми в темноту. Выбора нет. Увы Эх, уважаемые господа-с Вы правы-с - не изменить, вечные соотношения не поменять Уверуйте в уготованное и смотрите только разрешённое. Без глупостей "

Rehabilitation and Remediation of Internationally Adopted Children
Boris Gindis
Cambridge University Press
2021
sidottu
This book presents specific methods for the physical rehabilitation, mental health restoration, and academic remediation of post-institutionalized international adoptees. The focus of the book is on the neurological, psychological, and educational consequences of complex childhood trauma in the context of a fundamental change in the social situation of development of former orphanage residents. A discussion of after-adoption traumatic experiences includes a critique of certain “conventional” approaches to the treatment of mental health issues and different disabilities in international adoptees. Using his 30-year background in research and clinical practice, the author expertly describes and analyses a range of methodologies in order to provide an integrated and practical system of “scaffolding” and “compensation” for the successful rehabilitation and remediation of children with ongoing traumatic experiences. This is essential reading for researchers and practicing clinicians concerned with childhood trauma, remedial education, and issues of international adoption.
Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865–1968
Boris Heersink; Jeffery A. Jenkins
Cambridge University Press

In Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865–1968, Heersink and Jenkins examine how National Convention politics allowed the South to remain important to the Republican Party after Reconstruction, and trace how Republican organizations in the South changed from biracial coalitions to mostly all-white ones over time. Little research exists on the GOP in the South after Reconstruction and before the 1960s. Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865–1968 helps fill this knowledge gap. Using data on the race of Republican convention delegates from 1868 to 1952, the authors explore how the 'whitening' of the Republican Party affected its vote totals in the South. Once states passed laws to disenfranchise blacks during the Jim Crow era, the Republican Party in the South performed better electorally the whiter it became. These results are important for understanding how the GOP emerged as a competitive, and ultimately dominant, electoral party in the late-twentieth century South.
БОРИС ГУБЕРМАН КРАЙ РОДНОЙ, НАВЕК ЛЮБИМЫЙ, КРАЙ... ПРОФАШИСТКИЙ МОЙ РОДНОЙ Выражаю большую благодарность в создании книги Элине Джалиловой. Потребность начать писать эту книгу у меня возникла вскоре после трагических событий 7 октября 2023 года, когда оголтелая банда примерной численностью в три тысячи до зубов вооружённых ублюдков, нелюдей, которым другого названия пока ещё не придумано сведущими в этом деле людьми, настолько страшным было злодеяние этих варваров из сектора Газа, творящих невероятное на израильской территории.

Post-Soviet Literature and the Search for a Russian Identity
Boris Noordenbos
Palgrave Macmillan
2018
nidottu
This book examines a wide range of contemporary Russian writers whose work, after the demise of Communism, became more authoritative in debates on Russia’s character, destiny, and place in the world. Unique in his in-depth analysis of both playful postmodernist authors and fanatical nationalist writers, Noordenbos pays attention to not only the acute social and political implications of contemporary Russian literature but also literary form by documenting the decline of postmodern styles, analyzing shifting metaphors for a “Russian identity crisis,” and tracing the emergence of new forms of authorial ethos. To achieve this end, the book builds on theories of postcoloniality, trauma, and conspiracy thinking, and makes these research fields productively available for post-Soviet studies.
The Dark Side of Early Soviet Childhood, 1917-1941
Boris B. Gorshkov
BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2023
sidottu
The Civil War and early Soviet food policies left millions of children homeless and starving in Russia in the first half of the 20th century. Child mortality rates reached 95% in certain areas, and all of these problems remained endemic throughout the 1920s and 1930s. In The Dark Side of Early Soviet Childhood, 1917-1941, Boris B. Gorshkov investigates the causes of this prolonged homelessness and starvation, the conditions faced by huge numbers of children, and the state’s unsuccessful efforts to solve these horrendous issues. Gorshkov pays particular attention to the critical role of the secret police (the VChKa and the NKVD) in this story and draws on a range of previously unused archival sources to reveal the full extent of the suffering of children in Russia at this time, as well as the interconnected causes behind it.
The peasantry accounted for the large majority of the Russian population during the Imperialist and Stalinist periods – it is, for the most part, how people lived. Peasants in Russia from Serfdom to Stalin provides a comprehensive, realistic examination of peasant life in Russia during both these eras and the legacy this left in the post-Soviet era.The book paints a full picture of peasant involvement in commerce and local political life and, through Boris Gorshkov’s original ecology paradigm for understanding peasant life, offers new perspectives on the Russian peasantry under serfdom and the emancipation. Incorporating recent scholarship, including Russian and non-Russian texts, along with classic studies, Gorshkov explores the complex interrelationships between the physical environment, peasant economic and social practices, culture, state policies and lord-peasant relations. He goes on to analyze peasant economic activities, including agriculture and livestock, social activities and the functioning of peasant social and political institutions within the context of these interrelationships. Further reading lists, study questions, tables, maps, primary source extracts and images are also included to support and enhance the text wherever possible.Peasants in Russia from Serfdom to Stalin is the crucial survey of a key topic in modern Russian history for students and scholars alike.

To Boris Groys, everything in the modern world ultimately falls into two categories – it’s either art, or it’s garbage. Both are useless, functionless objects that simply… lie there. The difference comes when we immunize art from the destructive power of time to which we happily deliver our garbage. In this collection of essays and interviews, Groys expounds on these lines of thinking, taking in art, the dialectic of work, the afterlife, politics, utopia, philosophy, faith, revolution, the avant-garde and digitalization. Boris Groys’ philosophical writings critique the political economy of heterotopia: economic resources are finite and not everything in modernity receives the same degree of care. His writings on art concern the things of the after-life, with only the politics of immortality ensuring that one’s own form of life never becomes a piece of garbage. Groys sees modern history is a history of aestheticizations, and with every aestheticization comes a claim of protection. Western society tends to aestheticize with a desire to protect everything, including the Anthropocene and all of the exotic species dwelling within it. If we can present ourselves as objects of reverence worthy of admiration and care, then can we too survive the ravages of time?Bringing together previously unpublished texts, newly translated work and interviews, this is a coruscating trip through the complex and challenging philosophical and cultural problems that Boris Groys has made it his life’s work to deal with.
