International Scientific Conference "Socio-Political and Religious Ideas and Movements in the 20th-21st Centuries", Latvia, Riga, 4-5 October 2018 : …
2018
The conference facilitated the exchange of ideas and the results of the latest studies on the reciprocity and significance of religious and socially political ideas (ideologies) in contemporary society. In the modern-day ever-changing political situation, an increasing danger to the safety and stability of society is caused by the manipulations of the seemingly traditional conceptions of ethical, religious and cultural values evident in the public discourse and media space. Under the impact of global processes, social anxiety and ethical disorientation facilitate a dangerous trend to trust the populist ideologies and quasi-religious ideas, as well as increase the level of radicalisation of …
Polityka regionalna państwa po październiku 1956 r. na Śląsku Opolskim wobec regionalizmu
2017
The article is a continuation of considerations on the functioning of Polish regionalism in Silesia in the period of Polish People’s Republic, that is in a totalitarian State, after the end of Stalinism. The state authorities in Warsaw came to face the ąuestion how to halt the autochthonic population’s rapid willingness to emigrate to the FRG, which was fueled by the action of ”joining families”. Corrections introduced into the social policy were not of much help in this respect, since the deepening differences in the ąuality of life and the encouraging attitude represented by the authorities in Bonn, ready to accept repatriates and refugees, aided by practically stagnant economy and ”crude…

State composers and the red courtiers : music, ideology, and politics in the Soviet 1930s
2007
Venäläisiin arkistolähteisiin pohjaavassa väitöstutkimuksessaan Simo Mikkonen käsittelee Neuvostoliiton poliittisen eliitin ja taiteilijoiden keskinäisiä suhteita 1930-luvulla. Ajanjakso muistetaan Stalinin valtaannoususta ja joukkoterrorista. Taiteiden osalta on puhuttu taiteellisen vapauden alistamisesta poliittisiin päämääriin puolueen pakkokeinojen ja vainon avulla. Mikkonen osoittaa käsityksen osin virheelliseksi: yhtään eturivin säveltäjää ei terrorin aikana lähetetty vankileireille, teloituksista puhumattakaan. Säveltäjistä neuvostoeliittiä Säveltäjien asema muuttui merkittävästi 1930-luvun aikana. Säveltäjien työ ammattimaistui, he nousivat osaksi eliittiä ja heidän elintasonsa kohe…

Aside from the official part of the celebrations, Labour Day included the entertainment part as well. In the afternoon of the lst of May numerous art and sport events, as well as games, lotteries etc. were organised in Opole and in other major localities of the voivodeship.

In the years 1949-1952 numerous Street fund-raisings were carried out among the participants of May Day events, and their outcomes in Opole voivodeship were judged …

Stalinismi musiikissa : narodnost-käsite Neuvostoliiton musiikkipolitiikan diskursseissa 1930-luvulla
2016
Tässä maisterintutkielmassa tarkasteltiin yhden sosialistisen realismin alakäsitteen, narodnostin, merkitystä ja asemaa Neuvostoliiton musiikkipolitiikassa 1930-luvulla. Narodnost-käsitteen merkitystä selvitettiin suhteessa 1930-luvun Neuvostoliiton laajempiin poliittisiin diskursseihin, mikä toi esille Neuvostoliiton virallisen taidesuuntauksen muotoutumisen yhteyden tuon ajan historialliseen ja poliittiseen kontekstiin. Käsitteen määrittelyssä hyödynnettiin kahta historian ja kielen suhdetta tarkastelevaa teoreettista viitekehystä, diskurssintutkimusta ja käsitehistoriaa. Näiden teorioiden pohjalta luotiin lähestymistapa, jossa käsitteiden nähdään muodostuvan diskursseista. Näin ollen käs…
