The article highlighted the structural elements of mental measurement processes and factors of legitimation of State authority in the domestic political and legal space. The focus is on the two alternative models of post-Soviet State-legal construction, both conservative and Liberal, which largely determines the logic of national statehood at the turn of the 20th-21st centuries. In this context, the author highlights the specificity of the legitimation of power institutions, identifies the basic parameters of its study, raises questions about the possible prospects for the modernization of the power relations in the context of Russian culture-civilizational identity.

Из древесины производится около 20 тысяч наименований продукции, причем около 95% приходится на продукцию химической и механо-химической переработки древесины. Большая часть таких производств в качестве сырья потребляет технологическую щепу, к которой предъявляются требования по наличию в ней коры, гнилей и минеральных включений. Наиболее трудо- и энергоемкой операцией технологического процесса по производству технологической щепы является окорка балансовой древесины, которая в подавляющем большинстве случаев производится методом групповой окорки в окорочных барабанах различной конструкции. В статье представлена математическая модель процесса групповой окорки лесоматериалов в окорочных барабанах, позволяющая оценивать один из основных параметров групповой окорки лесоматериалов – время их обработки, при котором будут минимизированы потери древесины без снижения качества окорки, с учетом конструктивных элементов барабана, параметров балансов, их свойств и температуры. Учтен вероятностный характер таких показателей, как время окорки, физико-механические свойства коры и древесины, особенности распределения слоев коры по глубине, что обусловило необходимость применения математической модели, основанной на принципах ситуационного моделирования процессов перехода лесоматериала из одного состояния в другое. Методика расчета и управления основными параметрами процесса позволяет разрабатывать организационные, технологические и технические мероприятия, обеспечивающие стабильность качественных показателей групповой окорки лесоматериалов в окорочных барабанах. Также модель представлена в виде функциональной блок-схемы, основанной на графическом интерфейсе Matlab с приложением Simulink. Используя наборы блоков Simulink, отвечающих за константы, переменные, функции, и вычислительные операции, организован процесс расчета основных параметров объектно-ориентированным ме­тодом. Wood is produced about 20 thousand kinds of products, with about 95% products of the chemical and mechano-chemical processing of wood. Most of these industries as raw material consumes wood chips, which are requirements for the presence of bark, rot and mineral inclusions. Most labor and energy intensive operation of the technological process for the manufacturing of wood chips is the debarking of pulpwood, which in the vast majority of cases, produced by a group of debarking in debarking drums of various designs. The article presents a mathematical model of the process of group debarking wood in debarking drums allows one to assess one of the key parameter group of debarking wood – processing times, which will be minimized wood losses without reducing the quality of the debarking, taking into account the structural elements of the drum, the balance parameters, their properties and temperature. Account the probabilistic nature of such indicators as: debarking, physical and mechanical properties of bark and wood, the distribution of layers of crust at depth, which necessitated the use of mathematical models based on the principles of situational simulation of the transition branch from one state to another. Calculation method and basic parameters of the process allows us to develop organizational, technological and technical measures ensuring the stability of quality indicators of group debarking wood in debarking drums. Also, the model presented in the form of functional block diagrams based on the graphical user interface of Matlab with Simulink application. Using the Simulink block sets of charge constants, variables, functions, and compute the organized process of calculating the basic parameters of the object-oriented method.

В статье представлено описание реставрации силуэта «Император Николай I и кадет Бубнов», переданного наряду с другими силуэтами в лабораторию научной реставрации графики из отдела истории русской культуры Государственного Эрмитажа. Композиция предмета состоит из бумажного силуэта в рамке золотого цвета, наклеенного на черный глянцевый фон, бумажную и картонную подложки. Данный силуэт передан в реставрацию из-за повреждений, имеющих тенденцию к развитию и неблагоприятных как для состояния сохранности бумаги-основы, так и для красочных слоев. Исследования бумаги позволили выявить визуально незаметный слой свинцовых белил на поверхности силуэта. В процессе реставрации была открыта исторически значимая надпись «Подарок Мейбаумъ 4. 28 августа 1835». Мы можем предположить, что надпись указывает на автора силуэта, воспитанника Первого кадетского корпуса Мейбаума, либо на его родственника, подарившего силуэт. С каждым элементом предмета проведены реставрационные мероприятия. Основная часть работ выполнена над бумажным силуэтом, имеющим не только пятна, но и разрывы вследствие деформации бумажной основы и картона. Особенностями оформления композиции после реставрации является инкапсулирование силуэта в полиэфирную пленку, предотвращающую взаимодействие свинцовых белил с воздухом, и крепление всех элементов конструкции по верхнему краю. После реставрации сохранен авторский замысел: инкапсулированный силуэт на черном глянцевом фоне, окаймленный рамкой золотого цвета, крепится к бумажной подложке. The article presents a description of the restoration of the silhouette “Emperor Nicholas I and the Cadet Bubnov” which was transferred along with other silhouettes to the Laboratory for Scientific Restoration of Graphics from the Department of the History of Russian Culture of the State Hermitage Museum. The composition of the subject consists of a paper silhouette in a gold frame, pasted on a glossy black background, paper and cardboard backings. This silhouette was handed over for restoration due to damages that tended to develop and were unfavorable both for the state of preservation of the base paper and for the paint layers. The paper studies made it possible to reveal a visually imperceptible layer of lead white on the silhouette surface. During the restoration process, the historically significant inscription “Gift of Meibaum 4. August 28, 1835” was discovered. We can assume that the inscription points to the author of the silhouette, a student Meibaum studied in the First Cadet Corps, or to his relative who donated the silhouette. Restoration procedures have been carried out with each element of the object. The main part of the work has been done on a paper silhouette, which had not only spots, but also tears due to the deformation of the paper support and cardboard. The features of the composition design after restoration are the encapsulation of the silhouette in a polyester film, which prevents the interaction of lead white with air, and the fastening all structural elements along the upper edge. After the restoration the author's idea has been kept: the encapsulated silhouette on a black glossy background, bordered by the golden frame, is attached to a paper backing.

State elites and officials “see” their polities and societies through ideological and symbolic lenses that shape what they seek and perceive as they devise policies. But what happens to that sight and vision during moments of challenge and duress, and with what effect on policies? This article uses the example of the Blockade of Leningrad to begin an exploration of this subject. The pre-war Soviet state and Communist Party had a “double vision”, seeing Soviet society as an object for utopian plans and projects (a “high modernist” vision), and as an amorphous source of constant potential risk (e. g. counter-revolution). Extreme duress and challenges to survival from the Blockade challenged both facets of this double vision. What began to emerge was a more pragmatic vision centered on maintaining state authority and political order. We use state perception of and policies towards death and, as an extension, defending (civilian) life. Brief explorations of how state elites and officials perceived death, disposal labor (coping with corpses), and life (mothers) reveals a more realistic pragmatism, less deferent to ideology, beginning to emerge. We conclude that this points to a possible “Blockade Bolshevism” as a shifting formula of rule and possibilities of a “NEP reboot” lost to high Stalinism after the war.

The Mind

In the early years of the Soviet state, a small number of commentators sought to give an account of the new Russian culture to outsiders. Among these were Eden and Cedar Paul, advocates of workers’ education, keen advocates of Lunacharsky and Proletcult, who used their numerous translations as well as their own books and articles to advance their own version of workers’ culture based on Marx, Bergson and Freud. John Cournos and D.S. Mirsky were among those who described Proletcult for the British public, while Huntly Carter gave an account of developments in theatre. The English translation of René Fülöp-Miller’s The Mind and Face of Bolshevism gave British readers the most extensive account of the new Russian culture.

Shakespeare’s place in Russian culture is traced from the eighteenth century, when Catherine the Great herself adapted two of the dramatist's plays, to present day productions responding to the cultural and political realities of Putin’s Russia. Particular attention is paid to Shakespeare’s rise to prominence among the writers of Russian Romanticism; to Shakespeare’s influence on the father of Russian literature, Alexander Pushkin; to his dominance in mid-nineteenth century Russian culture, when a complete edition of his plays was translated into Russian and writers wrote stories based on Shakespearean themes; to modernist takes on Shakespeare at the turn of the twentieth century; and on to the improbable appropriation of Shakespeare for the cause of revolution by the young Soviet state.

Authoritative Discourse

Abstract Unintelligible sequences of letters or words in today’s Russian culture are omnipresent: in slogans, such as “Hair is the best remedy,” “Stop grandma’s merciless feeding!”; on social media, for example #ifnotputinthencat and “LSDUZ and IFIAU9”; in satirical songs and poems; in films by Zvyagintsev, novels by Sorokin, Tolstaya, and Pelevin, etc. The appeal of gibberish and its repression by the Soviet and post-Soviet officialdom is rooted in the belief that art and word have the power to influence people and events. Avant-garde artists who pioneered this belief in the transformative power of art cheered the Bolshevik’s promise to create a new society, but were soon crushed by the Soviet state as dangerous saboteurs. Today, gibberish is again a strategy of aesthetic defiance. Erudite and inventive, gibberish eludes the grasp of state censorship. It builds communities of resistance, and spoils the authoritative discourse like a fly in the soup.

In the post-constitution period of political and social upheavals, the process of inclusion and the role of democratization and federalism made new spaces for deliberations on caste/ethnicity, ethnic identity and rights quandaries, credibility and questioning of state authority and the challenge of societal hierarchy and conventional governance patterns in Nepal. The ‘Instrumentalist’ either self-aggravated exaggeration of political, social, economic, regional differences or the historically existing differences or discriminatory, exclusionary socio-economic and political practices being followed in Nepal led ethnic and marginalized caste groups elites and activists to be in ‘primordial’ row and struggle to scuffle for their group’s better position. Concurring to ethnographic representations of ethnic thoughts, actions and claims as socio-cultural veracity, this paper argues that the ethnic and marginalized groups demand for more rights, autonomy and better life that can be resolved with the adoption of rights based model of development via affirmative transformation of power relations between the rights holders (marginalized groups) and the duty bearers (state institutions). Both duty bearers and the rights holders will have a fervent role in assuring rights and development. This will enable to manage ethnic rows and ethnic/caste identities that can be linked with development by making institutions more inclusive and promoting social interaction between different communities and institutions.

Nongravitational Effects

AbstractThe nongravitational motion of five “erratic” short-period comets is studied on the basis of published astrometric observations. We present the precession models which successfully link all the observed apparitions of the comets: 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, 31P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 2, 32P/Comas Solá, 37P/Forbes, and 43P/Wolf-Harrington. We used the Sekanina's forced precession model of the rotating cometary nucleus to include the nongravitational terms into equations of the comet's motion. Values of six basic parameters (four connected with the rotating comet nucleus and two describing the precession of spin-axis of the nucleus) have been determined along the orbital elements from positional observations of the comets. The solutions were derived with additional assumptions which introduce instantaneous changes of modulus of reactive force,Aand of maximum of cometary activity with respect to perihelion time. The present precession models impose some contraints on sizes and rotational periods of cometary nuclei. According to our solutions the nucleus of 21P/Giacobini-Zinner with oblateness along the spin-axis of about 0.32 (equatorial to polar radius of 1.46) is the most oblate among five investigated comets.
