Der Beitrag faßt die Ergebnisse einer von der Redaktion der Zeitschrift "MEMO" durchgeführten Veranstaltung zu aktuellen Fragen der Globalisierung zusammen, an der Vertreter aus verschiedenen russischen wissenschaftlichen Instituten teilnahmen. Die Globalisierung wird unter sozial-anthropologischen, soziologischen, politologischen und historischen Aspekten betrachtet. Die Widersprüchlichkeit der mit dem Terminus "Globalisierung" bezeichneten Prozesse, deren Dynamik sowie die Folgen für Rußland werden in mehreren Diskussionsbeiträgen thematisiert. Das Verhältnis von Globalisierung und Modernisierung bzw. Postmoderne wird gleichfalls erörtert. (BIOst-Mrk)

Die an der vom IMEMO veranstalteten Diskussion über die gegenwärtige Globalisierung und die Globalisierungsfolgen für Rußland beteiligten Wissenschaftler arbeiten die Antinomien und Paradoxien dieser Entwicklung heraus und weisen darauf hin, daß nicht nur die bisherige Weltordnung, sondern auch die derzeit vorherrschende Weltsicht infolge der Globalisierumng einer grundlegenden Revision bedürfen. Der im Zusammenhang mit der Globalisierung zu konstatierende Individualisierungsprozeß wird nicht nur unter historischen und politologischen, sondern auch unter soziologischen und sozialpsychologischen Aspekten diskutiert.

The review analyses a book by K. A. Chekalov — a well-known scholar,
Doctor of Philology, Head of the Department of Classical Literatures of the West
and Comparative Literature Studies. His work continues the series of studies of mass
French literature from its origins to the beginning of the last century. Th e author
does not aim to cover all the phenomena of mass literature over a century and a half,
trying at the same time to fi ll the gaps in their research, to turn to the least studied
works of those novelists which his predecessors had already addressed (Eugène Sue,
Alexandre Dumas, Maurice Leblanc), to the less explored writers (Paul Feval, Ponson
du Terailles, Xavier de Montepin, etc.), as well as those famous writers whose
relationship to mass literature is still ambiguous (Jules Verne). Comprising 11 essays,
Chekalov's monograph not only provides an insight into the poetics and function
of the mass novel in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century France, but also shows
the nature of its reception in Russia, from the fi rst published translations to the
publications of the 2000s.

In accordance with United Nations General Assembly resolution, the year 2019 was proclaimed the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements. Rare-earth elements were discovered during the time of the Periodic System development. In the past few decades, their compounds have attracted great interest due to their unique reactivity. This review covers recent achievements in the field of intermolecular hydrophosphination of alkenes, dienes and alkynes, which is catalyzed by rare earth and alkaline-earth metal complexes. Catalytic hydrophosphination reaction is the addition of an P—H bond to С—С multiple bonds, and offers an efficient and elegant synthetic approach to production of the organophosphorus compounds widely used in industrial synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemistry, and other areas. The high values of the ionic radii of rare earth and alkaline-earth metals in combination with the Lewis acidity provide their compounds with a pronounced tendency to complex formation and, accordingly, high coordination numbers. Due to high reactivity of M—E (E = C, H, N, P) bonds, ease of Ln—P ı-bond metathesis and multiple C—C bond insertions, these compounds offer new prospects for the catalysis of the alkenes and alkynes hydrophosphination. Therefore, complexes of non-toxic and relatively abundant in nature rare earth and alkaline earth metals can be a cheaper and more effective alternative to compounds of late transition metals in the catalysis of the C—P bond formation.

The article examines the attitude to radical means of political struggle, in particular, to terror, Russian party of the early twentieth century, referring to the populist direction of socialism — the socialist–revolutionaries (SRS) and people's socialists (Anosov). The similarities and differences of views of the most prominent representatives of these parties on the need to use extreme methods of struggle, as well as the evolution of their attitude to terror due to changes in the political situation in Russia are shown. Main research methods: analysis, synthesis, biographical method, analogy, comparison.

Статья посвящена рассмотрению дискуссии между А.Я. Гуревичем и Л.М. Баткиным, которая внесла значительный вклад в становление «несоветской» медиевистики. Цель исследования состоит в определении характерных черт полемики между А.Я. Гуревичем и Л.М. Баткиным, ее значения в процессе трансформации эпистемологического поля отечественной исторической науки. Теоретической основой статьи стали принципы интеллектуальной истории. Исследование осуществлено на основе сравнительно-исторического и историко-генетического методов. В настоящей работе проанализированы взгляды А.Я. Гуревича и Л.М. Баткина на ряд методологических вопросов, которые оказались в центре прений между учеными. В публикации делается вывод о том, что рассматриваемый диспут затрагивал вопросы о культурной и социальной сущности личности, о реализации личностью функций внутри общественных структур, о причинах и механизмах изменения культурных ценностей и доминант. Трактовка понятия «личность» определяла выбор подхода к изучению общества. Если для А.Я. Гуревича личность является порождением социально-культурной системы конкретной эпохи, а особенность личности заключается в оригинальном соединении общих черт культуры, то для Л.М. Баткина личностью является индивид, который, руководствуясь общими нормами и установлениями, пропускает их через свое сознание и словно вновь порождает нормы и ценности. Согласно Л.М. Баткину, «осознающая личность» – начало преодоления стереотипов и матриц общественного сознания. В этой связи подход А.Я. Гуревича был нацелен на реконструкцию общественных стереотипов и матриц, определявших поведение людей. Л.М. Баткин анализировал выдающиеся литературные произведения, которые, по мысли ученого, открывают в исследуемой культуре ее изменение и трансформацию. Ряд тезисов, высказанных Л.М. Баткиным в ходе полемики, был воспринят и интерпретирован Ю.Л. Бессмертным, А.Л. Юргановым, А.В. Каравашкиным, И.Н. Данилевским и оказал влияние на формирование их научно-исследовательских программ. Ученые сошлись во мнении, что средневековую культуру необходимо изучать исходя из особенностей развития самой культуры, следует уделять внимание пониманию специфики культурного языка, особенностей мышления и самовыражения исследуемой эпохи, надлежит учитывать уникальные черты культуры и использовать принципы герменевтики в качестве методологической основы интерпретации письменных источников.
he article is devoted to the discussion between A. Gurevich and L. Batkin, who made a significant contribution to the development of "non-Soviet" medieval studies. The purpose of the study is to determine the characteristic features of the controversy between A. Gurevich and L. Batkin and its significance in the process of transformation of the epistemological field of Russian historical science. The principles of intellectual history constitute the theoretical foundation of the article. The study was carried out on the basis of comparative historical and historical genetic methods. The present work analyzes the views of A. Gurevich and L. Batkin on a number of methodological issues that were at the center of the debate between the scholars. The author concludes that the dispute under consideration raised questions about the cultural and social essence of the individual, about the implementation by the individual of his functions within social structures, and about the causes and mechanisms for changing cultural values and dominants. The interpretation of the concept of personality determined the choice of approach to the study of society. While for A. Gurevich, the personality is a product of the socio-cultural system of a particular era and the peculiarity of the personality lies in the original combination of common features of culture, L. Batkin views the personality as an individual who, being guided by general norms and regulations, lets them go through his consciousness and as if generates norms and values again. According to L. Batkin, "the conscious personality" is the beginning of overcoming stereotypes and matrices of social consciousness. In this regard, the approach of A. Gurevich was aimed at reconstructing social stereotypes and matrices that determined people's behavior. L. Batkin analyzed outstanding literary works, which, according to the scholar, reveal change and transformation in the culture under study. A number of points made by L. Batkin during the polemic were perceived and interpreted by Yu. Bessmertnyi, A. Yurganov, A. Karavashkin, and I. Danilevskii and influenced the formation of their research agenda. The scholars agreed that medieval culture should be studied proceeding from the peculiarities of the development of the culture itself; attention should be paid to understanding the specifics of the language of culture, features of thinking and self-expression of the era under study; unique features of culture should be taken into account; it is required to use the principles of hermeneutics as a methodological basis for the interpretation of written sources.

The author studies the specifics of lace in the territory of the South Black Earth Russia in the 19th – early 20th centuries. The author has analyzed the history of lace crafts in the Yelets and Mtsensk districts of the Orlovsk province, and in the Zadonsk district of the Voronezh province. Based on archive materials the article determines such features of lace crafts development as the uniqueness of lace; the dependence of the growth of the influence of buyers on the pace of industry development; presence of the qualitative indicators of the manufacturing process inversely proportional to the quantitative; expanding the range of manufactured lace; the expansion of the sales area of lace; activation of the attention of individuals and public institutions to revive the specificity and individuality of local products lace. It was concluded that the impact of identified features on the pace of development of the lace industry in the South Black Earth Russia and on the development of Russian business in general.

Analyzing the history of lace crafts, the author describes the conditions of industrial activity lace, which showed the formation of the capitalist forms of lace makers' work. The features of the capitalist forms of labour which characterized crafts activity are pointed out. The peculiarities of lace sales organization in local and distant markets are studied. In addition to interprovince and interdistrict markets the author investigates the material on exporting goods abroad. The main reasons for the expansion of sales geography determine the change in product mix.

The author raises the issue related to the history of the preservation of unique lace made following the traditions of Russian folk art of their ancestors. The problem consisted in the fact that the buyers were not interested in the originality and identity of the goods. As a result, this led to the reduction of the original performance by increasing the amount of work on the standard models.
