Putin’s Dark Ages Political Neomedievalism and Re-Stalinization in Russia

Two decades before the war against Ukraine a “special operation” was launched against Russian historical memory aggressively reshaping the nation’s understanding of its history and identity. The Kremlin’s militarization of Russia through World War II propaganda is well documented but the glorification of Russian medieval society and its warlords as a source of support for Putinism has yet to be explored. This book offers the first comparison of Putin’s political neomedievalism and re-Stalinization and introduces the concept of mobmemory to the study of right-wing populism. It argues that the celebration of the oprichnina Ivan the Terrible’s regime of state terror (1565–1572) has been fused with the rehabilitation of Stalinism to reconstruct the Russian Empire. The post-Soviet case suggests that the global obsession with the Middle Ages is not purely an aesthetic movement but a potential weapon against democracy. The book is intended for students scholars and non-specialists interested in understanding Russia’s anti-modern politics and the Russians’ support for the terror unleashed against Ukraine. | Putin’s Dark Ages Political Neomedievalism and Re-Stalinization in Russia

Interdisciplinary Approaches to Disability Looking Towards the Future: Volume 2

How can a deep engagement with disability studies change our understanding of sociology literary studies gender studies aesthetics bioethics social work law education or history? Interdisciplinary Approaches to Disability (the companion volume to Manifestos for the Future of Critical Disability Studies) identifies both the practical and theoretical implications of such an interdisciplinary dialogue and challenges people in disability studies as well as other disciplinary fields to critically reflect on their professional praxis in terms of theory practice and methods. Topics covered include interdisciplinary outlooks ranging from media studies games studies education performance history and curation through to theology and immunology. Perspectives are drawn from different regions from the European Union to the Global South with chapters that draw on a range of different national backgrounds. Our contributors who write as either disabled people or allies do not proceed from a singular approach to disability often reflecting different or even opposing positions. The collection features contributions from both established and new voices in international disability studies outlining their own visions for the future of the field. Interdisciplinary Approaches to Disability will be of interest to all scholars and students working within the fields of disability studies cultural studies sociology law history and education. The concerns raised here are further in Manifestos for the Future of Critical Disability Studies. | Interdisciplinary Approaches to Disability Looking Towards the Future: Volume 2

Sham Ruins A User's Guide

In the middle of the eigtheenth century a new fad found its way into the gardens of England's well-to-do: building fake Gothic ruins. Newly constructed castle towers and walls looked like they were already falling apart even on the first day of their creation. Made of stone plaster or even canvas these sham ruins are often considered an embarrassing blip in English architectural history. However Sham Ruins: A User's Guide expands the specific example of the sham ruin into a general principle to examine the way purposely broken objects can be used to both uncover old truths and invent new ones. Along with architecture work by Ivan Vladislavić Tom Stoppard Alain Mabanckou Aleksei Fedorchenko Michael Haneke and Sturtevant is used to develop this thesis as well as artifacts such as pre-torn jeans fake histories and broken screen apps. Using these examples one of the key questions the book raises is: what is it that sham ruins ruin? In other words if real ruins are ruins of what they actually are then sham ruins should be considered ruins of what they are not. Thus sham ruins are about imposing new meaning where such meaning does not and should not exist. They also can show how things we think are functioning well are actually already broken. Sham ruins do this and much more by being lies ruses and embarrassments. This is what gives them the power with which we can think about objects in new unintended ways. | Sham Ruins A User's Guide

EDHF The Complete Story

The advances made in vascular biology in the last 25 years have considerably changed the perception that one could have of the endothelial cells. Once considered as a diffusion barrier preventing the access of the blood cells to the vascular matrix the endothelium is now recognized as playing a major role in the control of blood fluidity platelet aggregation and vascular tone but also in immunology inflammation angiogenesis and for serving as a metabolizing and an endocrine organ. from the prefaceCardiovascular diseases so prevalent in the Western world during the twentieth century could well become the scourge of the twenty-first century in emerging countries as well as the West. Endothelial dysfunction linked to an imbalance in the synthesis and/or release of contracting and relaxing factors is often evoked to explain the initiation of the cardiovascular pathology or its development and perpetuation. Two decades ago when nitric oxide was demonstrated to mediate endothelium-dependent relaxations the vascular world seemed convinced that nitric oxide was the ultimate and sole explanation for such relaxations. However not everyone agreed. EDHF: The Complete Story is the work of two leading researchers who did not accept that simple conclusion but instead continued to search along with others for a deeper understanding of the ways in which endothelial cells communicate with the underlying smooth muscle to signal it to hyperpolarize. Now with most if not all of those ways uncovered the authors offer this summary as way of bringing closure to the quest. This monograph reports on the work of many researchers. It summarizes the significant recent discoveries concerning endothelium-dependent hyperpolarizations which are likely to play a much more important role in cardiovascular physiology and pathology than was originally foreseenExtensively illustrated with original diagrams and schematics that su | EDHF The Complete Story

Collective Reflexology The Complete Edition

Vladimir Mikhailovitch Bekhterev was a pioneering Russian neurologist psychiatrist and psychologist. A highly esteemed rival of Ivan Pavlov his achievements in the areas of personality clinical psychology and political and social psychology were recognized and acclaimed throughout the world. Publication of the complete text of Collective Reflexology brings to the English-speaking world this brilliant scientist's final theoretical statements on how reflexological principles which he had been developing over a quarter century can be extended far beyond analysis of the individual personality. Bekhterev's work grows out of his interest in group psychology and suggestion. This concept of the reflex is much broader than Pavlov's. It is applicable to every variety of life. Bekhterev compared his own analyses to those of other European thinkers such as Comte LeBon and Sorokin. Such analyses strained against the official Marxist-Leninist doctrines of the era. Bekhterev died in 1927 allegedly of poisoning by Stalin's henchman. As with many scientists during the Soviet era his legacy was suppressed. In the normal course of events his name would have been as well known as that of Freud Pavlov or more lately B. F. Skinner. This first publication of Bekhterev's great work in English fills a void in the fields of psychology sociology and the history of science. V. M. Bekhterev was director of the Military Medical Academy in St. Petersburg and founded there its Psychoneurological Institute. Among his many books are Suggestion: Its Role in Social Life (available from Transaction) and The Subject Matter and Goals of Social Psychology. Lloyd H. Strickland is professor of psychology at Carleton University. He is the author of numerous journal articles and editor of Directions in Soviet Social Psychology and Soviet and Western Perspectives in Social Psychology. Bekhterev (1857-1927) is a formidable figure and his work continues to deserve careful study. Canadian Psychology | Collective Reflexology The Complete Edition
