Cultural Awarness Of Russia By Ssg Michael Mosley

Russia, as a country, has had a long and proud history. However, for a small time starting in 1917, things started to take a turn for the worse. There was widespread famine, disease, and killing by the instituted government. There was also no Russia. Instead, there was the glorious United Soviet Socialist Republics, or the USSR. This new country did not come around peacefully, but instead under the 1917 Russian Revolution and the revolting communist Bolsheviks. The Russian people were not in a better condition after the Russian revolution due to Stalin’s leadership of his country; the reason being the GULAGs that Stalin was sending his people to, the communes that the peasants were sent to, and the disastrous effects of his five year plans.

Steven G. Marks, asserts that Russia significantly influenced the modern world with its innovations on: politics, culture, society, fashion, economics, and arts, particularly between 1880 and 1980 in How Russia Shaped the Modern World. Normally Russia is left out of the world history rhetoric, but doing so is incorrect as its conflicting ideals with Western values has two notable significances: the animosity toward Russia by Western society created a series of reactions that impacted the world, and the hostility of others towards the West meant they were rather welcoming to Russian ideas. He begins with the theory of anarchism developing in Russia, from where it would spread to the world. Next he focuses on critical figures in Russian history

With many new factors making the world globalized and as steps were taken toward modernization in the 1700s, the world underwent many changes, however still keeping some of its initial traditions. From 1700-1900 in Eastern Europe, the economy had switched from agricultural to manufacturing due to the growth of factories and industry in the 1800s and serfdom was abolished, however the tsars still remained the center of authority.

Russian Federation has a long and interesting history. Many different events the structure and development of the country. Nowadays, Russia plays one of the most important roles in our world. Russia is located at the intersection of different cultures and contains multinational population and ethno-cultural diversity. Russia is an interesting country to discuss its issues of ethnicity and religion, try to predict the future development and economics of the country. How different country’s issues such as class distinction, equity and equality, race, religion, nationalism and other political variables are solved or considered by the state at least. The main goal of this work is to show weaknesses and struggles which Russia faces on the road

We can certainly view modern-day Russia as a world power which has superficially characterized itself as a nation operating more ethically than they were in past years. However, it seems that there are social norms and historically immoral behavior that the Russian government continues to impose upon the population. Over a ten-year span while Stalin was in power, approximately 5,600 people were convicted of bribery (Heinzen, 2007). During that time, there was an emphasis placed on punishing the judiciary members and law enforcement who were corrupting the systems of Russia. Looking back at this period it becomes more clear that the newfound morality among leaders of the country were nothing more than a method of deflection.

Russia/ Soviet Union experienced considerable political, social and industrial changes between 1801 and 1939. Russia was a backwards nation during 19th century and into the early 20th century. By the 1800’s Russia were behind technologically, having yet to experience an industrial revolution. They were also behind socially with serfdom still being the used for farming and labor. Thus, because of these obsolete practices Russia underwent many changes that were initiated by the people and the Tsars such as shifts in the government and the end of serfdom. Nonetheless certain aspects still persisted in Russia’s reliance on its agriculture.

Between 1900-1960 CE, Russia/Soviet Union had undergone major developments in which their political ideologies progressed from an absolute monarchy to communism. Another major development in Russia was the change in the status of religion as the power of religion progressively decreased as communism arose. Although Russia’s political ideologies and the status of religion has changed, the forms of governance in Russia generally remained the same. Russia at the time were faced with millions of casualties from both World War I and World War II, this caused their government to be in turmoil which then lead to the major changes in the Soviet Union.

This story is told in the first person, depicting the narrator’s experience meeting his wife’s friend Robert. The characters in the story are Bub, the narrator, his wife, and the blind man, Robert.

     Gender roles in Russia have dramatically changed since the fall of the former Soviet Union and the fall of communism. It is hard to look directly at the constitution of Russia seeing as though the drafting and redrafting of their constitution is still underway. However, looking at the constitution of the former Soviet Union, you can see it is clearly stated that: “Women and men have equal rights.” It is very clear that in the Soviet Union they were trying to make it so that women and men were equal. It is still clear today that those same basic ideals are present in Russia. Women are clearly more equal in their country than in ours. In the workforce as well as in the home, women

It is the middle ground of Europe and Asia, and as a result, which cultural aspects to draw from had a great deal of influence over Russian culture. For example, Peter the Great’s transformation of Russia into a more modernized Europeanized nation had some traces of cultural inferiority. The only need to modernize and imitate a nation into a replica of a European state is because there is a sense of loss of identity. This is important to understanding the key similarities and differences that played out when comparing and contrasting Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union.

The piece of art was created for and Egyptian Pharaoh named Nebamun. It was made on a wall panel with different colours, then placed into a tomb.

It shows a banquet (early funeral) with tow registers, the top one being the wealthier as there is better chairs.

Mankind has always aspired to be the largest, biggest, strongest, highest, essentially the best in everything. This is not untrue for the Russians who have had the largest country in the world for quite some time now. Russia covers one-sixth of the entire world’s land mass and has had a significant part in modern history. However, in order to understand why a country has become what it is now, one must look at its culture. A country’s culture not only reflects its citizens now but also its history and future.

Russia has many cultural characteristics that have shaped the country we know today. A nation 's culture can define its actions and make them more predictable as a state on the international level. Understanding a nation’s culture gives great insight into the motives and reasoning behind their aggression or acts of force. Factors such as geography, weather, political landscape, military, and key infrastructure provide a clear understanding of Russian culture and how it has shaped the nation over the past century.

When we hear the term Russian culture many Americans tend to have negative thoughts like the cold war, their government ruling with an iron hand, and the Red Scare. These thoughts do not do the justice to the Russian people or to their long history as a people dating back to INSERT DATE. One of the major themes throughout Russian history and this course is the idea that the Russian people value intangible things more than the tangible. The Russian people have a long rich heritage, they are deep in there Christian faith, and they pride themselves on hospitality and value there community, families, and fellow Russian people.
