To Serve the Nation, to Represent the Empire: Russian Consuls in the Balkans (1774-1878)
Authors:   Brown University, Simeonov Simeon
Published: March 2023

Being under the influence of the Anglo-Irish political scientist Benedict Anderson, most historians studying the so-called “long 19th century” continue to define nations as “imagined political communities,” and regard nations and empires as two incompatible or even conflicting entities. In contrast to this traditional interpretation, current historiographical contributions raise new questions about the way in which the creation of new nation-states in the Balkans influenced, and was influenced by, imperial geopolitics. Focusing on the widespread and well-studied institution of the consulate, this research argues that this institution allowed local Balkan elites of the early nineteenth century to combine their national aspirations with imperial geopolitics. Due to the unique position of the Russian Empire following the Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca (1774), local Balkan consuls transformed Russian consulates into imperial laboratories as well as incubators of national independence.
On the History of the Formation of Relations Between the USSR and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1923-1928 (According to the Documents of the Soviet Missions in Prague)
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Stankov Nikolay
Published: March 2023

Based on the official diaries and reports of representatives of the USSR in Czechoslovakia, the research examines informal negotiations between the Soviet and Yugoslav diplomats in Prague, from the first contacts in the autumn of 1923 to the end of 1928. Considerable attention is paid to revealing the role of the heads of the press bureau in Roman Jacobson and Stevo Klyuich missions in establishing and maintaining these contacts. Thanks to these connections, the Soviet mission regularly received information about the internal political situation in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, its position in the international arena, and moreover there was probing for the recognition of the USSR and the establishment of official relations.
At the Onset of the Non-Aligned Movement: The Yugoslav Factor. 1953–1961
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Anikeev Anatolii
Published: March 2023

The research discusses the main stages in the process of formation of the Non-aligned movement, the role and place of Yugoslavia in the organization of the movement, the attitude of Moscow to the Yugoslav foreign policy choice, as well as the position of the USSR diplomacy, i.e. the Soviet embassy in Yugoslavia, that tried to impose the Kremlin agenda on the participants of the first conference of Non-aligned countries in Belgrade which took place from September 1st to September 7th, 1961. The preparation and opening of the conference coincided with the aggravation of the German problem, the refusal of the Western powers to comply with Moscow's ultimatum demands to urgently sign an agreement with two German states, which meant the recognition of the GDR. The situation in Berlin sharply worsened, where, in accordance with the Soviet recommendation, the regime of Walter Ulbricht erected a wall in mid-August, dividing the city into two parts. The Soviet leadership decided to get support for its plans and actions from the third world countries gathered at the conference, primarily from those that were politically and economically dependent on the USSR to one degree or another. Moscow believed that such support from the world community could become an additional argument in defending the Soviet position in front of the “collective” West.

On the one hand, the importance of opera art in the process of building Romanian national (self-) consciousness will be explored. On the other hand, the most significant national operas of the 19th century will be considered, and analysing which will enable us to outline the main national strategies and representations embedded in them
Zafir Saroglu's Legacy: Personal, Regional, National and Imperial Aspects
Authors:   Institute of Balkan Studies with Center for Thracology, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Konstantinova Yura
Published: March 2023

The research traces the desires and dreams of Zafir Saroglu, described in his will. In the 1880s it became the subject of a legal dispute between Bulgaria and the heirs of a wealthy merchant who lived in Greece. Nevertheless, the question of his will shows us not only the Greek-Bulgarian national confrontation, but also a very different point of view on the significance of Russia for the peoples of the Balkan region. Zafir Saroglu accumulated his fortune in Russia, which allows us, tracing his history, to debunk some of the stereotypes established in historiography and to present the complex political, economic and ideological realities of the Balkans in the second half of the 19th century.
The Orange Guard of the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union, Outline of a Political Portrait
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Ermishin Leonid
Published: March 2023

Agrarian National Union (BZNS) - created an illegal paramilitary organization, which was called the “Orange Guard” by its contemporaries. Having come to power in 1920, the BZNS, instead of relying on official power structures such as the army, gendarmerie and police, continued to develop its own paramilitary structure. There are very few documents revealing its composition, number of members, tasks performed and their specific activities. Despite direct participation of the Guard in the internal political struggle of that period, the information about them in scientific literature also is scarce and fragmentary. During the Second World War, the archive of the Military Inter-Allied Commission of Control, which in 1919 -1927 performed supervisory functions over Bulgaria's implementation of the military articles of the Treaty of Neuilly-sur-Seine, came at the disposal of the Soviet command as a military trophy. In the Russian State Military Historical Archive, the author found the materials related to the activities of the commission. The paper analyzes a document that is supposedly a draft regulation on the recruitment to the “Orange Guard”.

Authors:   Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski, Georgieva Tina
Published: March 2023

The research examines the development and activities of the Free Cossack movement in Bulgaria. Special attention is paid to the leader of the Bulgarian Cossacks, Pavel Kudinov, who actively participated in the life of the Cossack émigrés and for a certain period of time was even in charge of one of the main centres of Cossacks National Movement (called also “samostiinichestvo”) located in Prague. The paper was written on the basis of new documents from the Bulgarian State Archive, as well as materials from the journals “Kazakia” and “Vol'niy Don” which were issued in the second half of the 1930s by Bulgarian Free Cossacks.
Educational Reforms in the Ottoman Empire in the Bosnian Vilayet in the Assessments of Russian Diplomats
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Melchakova Ksenia
Published: March 2023

The paper analyses the events of the active phase of reform process in the Ottoman Empire in the middle of the 19th century, which also affected the sphere of education. The Organic Law of 1869 proclaimed the introduction of universal compulsory education. Since most of the inhabitants of the Bosnian Vilayet remained illiterate, the population of the province was in dire need of establishing and developing a network of schools. The organization of the work of schools for the Orthodox population was carried out by church and school committees. The Russian consulates, which started working in Bosnia in 1857, collected information about the state of affairs at schools in the region and organized the delivery of aid to the Orthodox population to maintain and open educational institutions. The research is based on the reports of the Russian consuls and it characterizes and evaluates educational activities of the Ottoman authorities in the Bosnian Vilayet.
Soviet Model in Bulgaria as a Socialist Modernization Project (1950s - 1960s)
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Volokitina Tatiana
Published: March 2023

The research analyses the impact of the Soviet model of so-called “catching up” modernization in Bulgaria. It has been proved that the Soviet model turned out to be suitable for the destruction of the traditional socio-economic structure. Under the “catching up” modernization a modern industrial society was created in Bulgaria by the end of the 1960s, the social status of citizens changed, once agrarian country became one of the mid-developed countries of the world. However, by that time, in the new, information stage of modernization, the command and administration model of the economy organization, contributing to extensive development, had exhausted itself. In the long term, the Soviet modernization project, based on the strength and power of “the party-state”, turned out to be inefficient and demanded the search for new adequate solutions.
Does Romania Belong to the Balkans? Opinions of Politicians, Experts, Scientists and Images of Everyday Life
Authors:   Institute of Scientific Information for Social Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences, Bitkova Tatiana
Published: March 2023

Romania's belonging to the Balkan region is a controversial issue from the point of view of Romanian politicians, experts and historians. Many of them believe that Romania is not part of the Balkans neither geographically nor politically. However, it is obvious that culturally and historically Romania still bears the features of the so-called “Balkanism”, due to the Ottoman past shared with other countries of the Balkan Peninsula. These features are relevant both for today's socio-political situation and for everyday life. When studying the architectural heritage of modern Romania, both Ottoman and Byzantine roots are revealed, which links it to the Balkan culture. This is most pronounced in Wallachia and to a certain extent in Moldova. Transylvania is famous for monuments of German medieval Gothic, as well as Austro-Hungarian Baroque art. Thus, the visual art of Transylvania (as well as the Banat) is difficult to correlate with “Balkanism”. Despite the desire to present Romania as a non-Balkan country, its leaders are interested in the countries of the Balkan region, being in close cooperation with them. The greatest attention is paid to relations with the Western Balkans and, fi rst of all, with Serbia. Romania's position in the Western Balkans is determined by the support of the Euro-Atlantic aspirations of the countries of this region, but Romania is not indifferent to the influence of Russia and Turkey here. Summing up all the factors mentioned above we may draw a conclusion that the question of Romania's belonging to the Balkans has, first of all, political significance for its ruling elite.
Politics of History in the Countries of the Former Yugoslavia: Some Results of the Research Project
Authors:   Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, Belov Michael
Published: March 2023

In the case of the successor states of Yugoslavia the combination of history and politics was aggravated by the bloody ethnic and civil conflicts of the 1990s. The deep injuries inflicted by the armed struggle still have an impact on the memory of the recent past. In its turn it becomes a filter for the perception of previous events, processes and persons. The novelty of the project is determined by an integrated, multilevel, comparative study of politics of history in the states of the former Yugoslavia. The embodiment of the plan is complicated by the contradictory memories about the tragic circumstances of the collapse of the Communist federation. During the implementation of the project, common paradigms and specificity of each national situation, as well as competitive models of referring to the common past, were identified. At the same time, the contextual framework of the study takes into account the conflict zones of memory outside the former Yugoslavian space and the role of external actors. The result of the project is a qualitative examination of politics of history in the states of the former Yugoslavia inscribed in both the regional and European context.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Imperial Ambitions in the Balkans. Is the Emergence of a New Ottoman Turkey Possible?
Authors:   Institute for Historical Studies, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Bozhinov Vojn
Published: March 2023

The paper analyses the main directions of domestic and foreign policy of the 12th President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in the context of realizing his imperial ambitions by returning Ottomanism to the Balkans. The fundamental principles of neo-Ottomanism as the main ideological pillar of the regime are considered. Facts are presented that testify to the territorial claims of Ankara to the former Ottoman provinces of the Balkans and the use of compact Turkish / Muslim population groups in Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, etc. in order to expand its influence in South-Eastern Europe. The transformations in the economy are revealed, specific information about the increased militarization of Turkey is given. The conclusion is made about a relatively favorable prospect for the return of Ottomanism to the Balkan region and, consequently, for satisfying the imperial ambitions of the Turkish president.
Role of Reinforcement, Layout Orientation, and Spacing on Performance Enhancement of Square RC Slab under Drop Load Impact
Authors: Anas S. M. , Shariq Mohd , Alam Mehtab , Umair Mohammad
Published: March 2023

Cement concrete is the material, construction industries using it most all over the world in spite of its inherent weakness to carry tension which is supplemented by the reinforcing bars added to it. All kind of gravity loads such as gradually, suddenly acting, or impacting are carried by the slabs of a structure. But the slab is generally designed to carry quasi-static loads for a Limit State of Serviceability and Collapse. Being a thin flexural member, it has a minimum percentage of reinforcement as compared to other members of a structure which makes it substantially ductile but poor resilient to carry impact energy. Landslip hazards in mountainous regions particularly cause the direct impact of soil mass or boulders onto the slab. Therefore, it is meaningful if somehow impact resistance of the slab is improved without increasing its cost. In the present study, it has been investigated how best the impact performance of the slab can be enhanced by maneuvering with layout orientation of the re-bars (from 90°/180° to 45°/135°), reduction of re-bar spacing (from 100mm to 50mm), and substituting welded wire mesh in lieu of the conventional re-bars. For this purpose, a 3-D numerical model of the slab, 1000mm x 1000mm x 75mm, with 90/180° re-bar layout tested by Sadraie et al. (2019) under low-velocity drop load impact is validated. The impact on the slab at its center is simulated in ABAQUS software with explicit module by dropping a 105kg cylindroconical impact mass having a 40mm flat nose diameter from 2500mm height. Degradation of stiffness, strain-rate effects, and material nonlinearity are considered using Concrete-Damage-Plasticity and Johnson-Cook models. The study shows that 45/135° re-bar orientation with 50mm spacing in the slab reduces the damage severity from extensive to a less moderate level and alters the failure mode from punching to flexure.

Dalam organisasi akan banyak ditemui kelompok-kelompok seperti ini. Kelompok dapat mengubah motivasi individu atau kebutuhan dan bisa memengaruhi perilaku individu dalam satu kondisi organisasi. Hubungan antar individu dalam kelompok harus terjaga. Kelanggengan kelompok terletak pada kesungguhan masing-masing individu yang tergabung dalam kelompok untuk saling memperbarui semangat kolektivitas dalam mencapai tujuan yang telah ditetapkan secara bersama dengan menampung sebagian besar aspirasi individual. Semakin banyak aspirasi anggota kelompok yang terakomodasi, semakin puaslah anggota kelompok (Wahjono, 2010).
Stochastic properties of coastal flooding events -- Part 1: CNN-based semantic segmentation for water detection
Authors: Kang Byungho , Feagin Rusty , Huff Thomas , Duran Vinent Orencio
Published: March 2023

The frequency and intensity of coastal flooding is expected to accelerate in low-elevation coastal areas due to sea level rise. Coastal flooding due to wave overtopping affects coastal communities and infrastructure; however, it can be difficult to monitor in remote and vulnerable areas. Here we use a camera-based system to measure beach and back-beach flooding as part of the after-storm recovery of an eroded beach on the Texas coast. We analyze high-temporal resolution images of the beach using convolutional neural network (CNN)-based semantic segmentation to study the stochastic properties of flooding events. In the first part of this work, we focus on the application of semantic segmentation to identify water and overtopping events. We train and validate a CNN with over 500 manually classified images and introduce a post-processing method to reduce false positives. We find that the accuracy of CNN predictions of water pixels is around 90 % and strongly depends on the number and diversity of images used for training.
Platform over procedure: Online platforms that pre-vet participants yield higher data quality without sacrificing diversity
Authors: Peer Eyal , Rothschild David , Gordon Andrew
Published: March 2023

After decades of using mostly college students, researchers in psychology and social sciences gradually moved online to more cost-effective and flexible audiences. First, to samples of online convenience (CraigsList, Facebook), and then to sophisticated markets like Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk). Now, advanced platforms (such as CloudResearch and Prolific) promise researchers higher data quality using ex-ante vetting and controls on their participants’ pool. We systematically examine the impact of these ex-ante controls, and their effects on various measures of data quality, and compare them to standard ex-post approaches of attention checks (in randomized positions). We find that ex-ante controls outperform ex-post checks both on process measures of attention, honesty, and reliability, as well as on outcome measures of replicability. Additionally, while samples from platforms with ex-ante vetting show key differences in representation from the general population, they are still more representative than a major university lab pool, and no less representative than samples that are not ex-ante vetted. We conclude that pre-vetting of participants on the platform level should become the desired standard for online psychological and behavioral research, and could serve as a sufficient condition for ensuring a sample’s data quality ex-ante.

Introduction: Mindful eating is being fully present in the moment of eating and it is critical in preventing poor eating habits. The main objective for this study was to determine the associations of body mass index (BMI) and physical activity level with mindful eating behaviour among undergraduate medical students of Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Health Campus, Kubang Kerian, Kelantan. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 158 students (Years 1-5; 69% females and 31% males) by using a self-administered online questionnaire consisting of socio-demographic data, anthropometric data, short version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ). The associations between BMI and physical activity with MEQ were determined by Spearman’s Correlation and One-Way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis Test, respectively. Results: Majority of the students had normal BMI (66.4%, n=105), and 39.9% (n=63) had low physical activity levels. The mean MEQ summary score of the students was considered high (2.82±0.26). There was a significant negative association between MEQ summary score (r=-0.191; p=0.016) and disinhibition subscale score (r=-0.340; p<0.001) with BMI, whereby MEQ summary and disinhibition subscale scores increased as BMI decreased. However, there was no significant association between physical activity level with MEQ score (p>0.05). Conclusion: A student with positive mindful eating behaviour has the potential to lower his/her BMI. However, further research is required to verify this finding.
OVERVIEW OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CHSE CERTIFICATION IN HOTEL SERVICES IN THE YOGYAKARTA SPECILA REGION OF INDONESIA
Authors: Sapto Hariyono  , Sujoko
Published: March 2023

The impact of Covid-19 has brought more attention to tourism. The scale of the threat and risk posed by the Covid-19 pandemic is significantly reducing the willingness of tourists to stay in hotels. Cleanliness, Health, Safety and Environmental Sustainability (CHSE) promotes a clean, healthy, safe and friendly environment. CHSE is a policy implemented by the government, specifically the Indonesian Ministry of Tourism and Creative Industries, to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to review the impact of the pandemic on the hotel service sector and the extent of the implementation of CHSE in the hotel service sector in the special region of Yogyakarta. This study was conducted to see the extent to which CHSE certification is applied to the hotel sector in the Yogyakarta area. Data collection was carried out with secondary data presented on the official government website regarding CHSE-certified hotels, data for all hotels both in terms of room availability, number of rooms in the era before the pandemic and after the epidemic. Then analyzed with descriptive statistics and SPSS analysis with paired t-test for further discussion and conclusions drawn. Based on this research data, it is known that COVID-19 has a significant impact on tourist visits and the number of hotel rooms sold. The number of tourists both local and tourists foreign experienced a significant decline at the peak of the pandemic in 2020 in a row (p=0,016) and (p=0,032), but began to rise again in 2021. Likewise, the number of hotel rooms sold experienced a significant decline at the peak of the pandemic in 2020 (p=0,000) but began to rise again in 2021. data on This study also shows that the number of hotels that have been certified CHSE is still very low in the special area of Yogyakarta, which is 18.79%, so it is recommended that more hotels apply for CHSE certification to increase tourist interest in staying, visitor satisfaction, and a sense of trust and comfort visitors.

O mapeamento deste número temático fornece ao leitor interessado e curioso diversas linhas de reflexão e de investigação, contrariamente ao esforço tantas vezes sistemático e orientado para a especialização e autonomização das áreas do conhecimento científico, e em particular nas ciências sociais e humanidades. Conquanto, as ciências sociais são uma paisagem representativa de diversas possibilidades de investigação, há ainda muito trabalho por empreender e novas relações por estabelecer, por exemplo, nestes domínios onde a política não se esgota nas suas próprias instituições e corporações que tradicionalmente lhe têm dado forma e legitimidade. Propomos, aqui, que ao redor da comunicação, das imagens e dos discursos se estabeleçam as grandezas e fraquezas da prática política, i.e das estruturas de manifestação do poder.
