The article examines the process of emancipation of peasants and redemption operation in the estate of Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich, located between Tsarskoe Selo and Pavlovsk. The article reveals economic situation in Finnish villages and Fedorovskii Posad that were part of the estate. The authors consider the content and peculiarities of the charters and redemption documents for these settlements, which are kept in the Russian State Historical Archive (RGSH). The views of Konstantin Nikolaevich, who headed the Main Committee on Peasant Affairs and the Organization of the Rural Estate, on the rules of emancipation of peasants in the royal estates are analysed. The article studies the arguments of the ministers M. N. Murav'ev and V. F. Adlerberg, who disagreed with the proposal of Konstantin Nikolaevich to liberate peasants from the Pavlovskoje estates on the basis of the Provisions of February 19, 1861. The authors conclude that the conditions of emancipation of the peasants in Pavlovskoje estate, as well as the pre-reform condition of the peasant economy, were markedly more favorable than those of the peasants in other estates of the Tsarskoselskii district. The peasants signed the charter deeds offered to them, but were in no hurry to switch over to the buyout. The delay in carrying out the redemption operation in the estate was caused by the peasants' unwillingness to immediately switch to redemption on the terms less favorable to them offered by the owner. It was not until the early 1880s, after the reduction of redemption payments, that mandatory redemption operations were concluded.

Zwischen Soziologie und Philosophie gelingt es Alfred Schütz, eine eigenständige Theorie- und Forschungsperspektive für die Soziologie zu entwickeln. In seinem Werk verbinden sich grundlagentheoretische Überlegungen mit methodologischen Reflexionen.Anschaulich werden seine Überlegungen durch exemplarische Studien, etwa zur Wissensverteilung, zu den Phänomenen des "Fremden" und des "Heimkehrers" sowie zu wesentlichen Bezugsautoren für die verstehende Soziologie.Maßgeblichen Einfluss haben Schütz´ Arbeiten deshalb auf wissenschaftstheoretische Überlegungen zur "Logik der Sozialwissenschaften" wie auf die Grundlegung einer handlungsanalytisch ansetzenden, auf die Rekonstruktion von Sinnstrukturen zielenden Soziologie. Sein Werk ist darüber hinaus für die methodische Orientierung der hermeneutisch verfahrenden qualitativen Sozialforschung von zentraler Bedeutung.Der Einführungsband von Martin Endreß legt den Schwerpunkt auf die wissenssoziologischen Perspektiven des Werkes von Alfred Schütz. Diese werden vor dem Hintergrund der für ihn wesentlichen sozialen und intellektuellen Einflüsse dargestellt. Damit bietet die vorliegende Einführung eine umfassende Orientierung über die Grundlinien der von Schütz entwickelten Konzeption einer phänomenologisch fundierten verstehenden Soziologie.Weitere Infos zur Reihe: www.uvk.de/kw

First published in 1987, Alfred Marshall: Progress and Politics provides an enlightening insight into Marshall's thoughts on social improvement, adaptive upgrading, policy and polity. He planned books on these subjects which he never subsequently wrote, but the thesis of this work is that a close study of such writings as Marshall did complete makes possible a very detailed reconstruction of the important contribution which Marshall was capable of making to Victorian evolutionary thought (much in the shadow of Darwin and Spencer). In the ongoing debate on the political element in

This article presents the main milestones in the professional biography of Doctor of Philosophy, Professor Oleg Nikolayevich Yanitsky — an environmental sociologist, urbanist, researcher of the Russian environmental movement, one of the founders of Russian environmental sociology; the main methods and principles of his work; the ideas on which the concepts he developed are based, in particular, the concept of urbanization as a world-historical process of intensifying communication and integrating various forms of practical life activities, the interdisciplinary concept of a modern big city being a socio-biotechnical system, the concept of a society of universal risk, the concept of the primary eco-structure and individual resource field as a social microstructure, created to give eco-activists enhanced opportunities for social action.

This chapter, the book's introduction and summary, examines Tolstoy's life and art using psychobiographical, historical, and sexological prisms. The centrality of erotic non-conformism is the artist's emotional landscape and anarchist vision is emphasized. The numerous precedents in Russian history and society for LGBT life, from medieval legends to the sex-lives of despots and artists alike, are reviewed. An in-depth exploration of Tolstoy's erotic and attachment history, taken together with the number of same-sex relationships portrayed in his art, uncovers an underappreciated erotic dissidence.
