Product Description
Recent years have witnessed the most substantial changes in the world system of states and their boundaries since World War II. The key division between the states in the world system—the former deep ideological divide between East and West—has disappeared. The border between Finland and Russia was a frontier between East and West and had a long history as a fundamental dividing line between contrasting cultural and political systems. Territories, Boundaries and Consciousness is the first geographical analysis of how this critical border evolved. This original and well-illustrated book is much more than a local study. It presents both a theoretically informed analysis of the construction of territories and their boundaries and a richly detailed geohistory of the changing geography of Finland. It traces the nature of the nation-building process, the rise of the nation state and the changing position of this emerging new state in the world geopolitical landscape. The history of the construction of the Finnish—Russian border is analyzed on the basis of modern geopolitical and social theory, leading to an interpretation of the changing role of the boundary in the socio-spatial consciousness of the Finnish people. This important theoretical analysis is a key reformulation of boundary studies as well as a fascinating experienced examination of a critical geographical fault-line in world history. It is essential reading for postgraduates of political and cultural geography, history, international relations, Russian studies, as well as for those with an interest in international politics. ...

Product Description
Geography is a system of highly developed sciences about the environment. Geographical science embracing the study of the Earth's physical phenomena, people and their economic activities has always been in need of an extensive terminology. Geographical terms are related to the terms of natural sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, geology, etc.) and humanities (history, economics, sociology, etc.) since geography is based on these fundamental subjects.

Geography includes a number of disciplines and subdivisions which appeared along with the development of the science In spite of being very different geographical disciplines have some common tools of investigation which is maps, comparative method of exploration, remote sensing, geoinformation systems.

Today very well developed terminologies of all the specialist fields of geography and related subjects exist in the main world languages. However, they are not always well-correlated. Nowadays geographical terminology requires unification and international correlation more than ever before. Hence the idea of compiling a multilingual polydisciplinary dictionary.

The Dictionary consists of the basic table of terms arranged according to the order of the English alphabet with each term numbered. Each entry consists of the term in English and its equivalents in Russian, French, German, Spanish. Short definitions of terms are given in English and in Russian. The terms are supplied with the necessary grammar labels, such as gender of nouns, plural number, etc.

The Dictionary combines two functions: that of a defining dictionary and that of a bilingual dictionary. These two functions are basically contradictory because usually the defining dictionary is aimed at giving one meaning of the word which is the main and essential one, while the bilingual dictionary tries to give different equivalents of a given word in the other language in order to supply the user with maximum possible translations, differing in the shades of meanings, thus giving him the possibility to choose the appropriate word. But in our Dictionary we intentionally decided to combine the two functions - defining and multilingual, because a short definition of the term and equivalents in other languages help to achieve our main aim which consists in showing the basic geographical terminology and harmonizing it in several languages. Having this into consideration we deliberately mixed two types of dictionaries in one.

*Organized alphabetically via English
*Provides short definition of geographical terms in English and Russian
*Includes multilingual translation of terms from English to Russian, French, German, Spanish ... Read more

It lies between the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Sea of Okhotsk to the west. Immediately offshore along the Pacific coast of the peninsula runs the 10,500-metre (34,400 ft) deep Kuril-Kamchatka Trench. The Kamchatka Peninsula, the Commander Islands, and Karaginsky Island constitute the Kamchatka Krai of the Russian Federation. The majority of the 402,500 inhabitants are Russians, but there are also about 13,000 Koryaks. More than half of the population lives in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky (198,028 people) and nearby Yelizovo (41,533). The Kamchatka peninsula contains the Volcanoes of Kamchatka, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Kamchatka receives up to 2,700 mm (110 in) of precipitation per year. The summers are moderately cool, and the winters tend to be rather stormy with rare amounts of lightning. Topography of the Kamchatka PeninsulaPolitically, the peninsula is part of Kamchatka Krai.

Product Description
Since the very early times people have congregated in groups of increasing size and complexity, brought together as a result of agricultural surplus, the establishment of power and the development of trade, among other reasons. This volume aims to offer both a description and an analysis of urban and rural life. It explores the development of settlements--from rural hamlet to modern megalopolis--throughout the world. Its innovative structure reviews the development of human settlement throughout the world and looks in detail at specific local examples. This volume seeks to provide a clear understanding of the of the relationships between villages, towns, and cities, and looks at the needs of the inhabitants. Contributors include Janet Abu-Lughod, Colin Clarke, Ezekiel Kalipeni, John Mercer, and Marvin Samuels. The colorful and informative mixture of photographs, maps, and diagrams demonstrates the wide range of human habitations and explores their characters, making it an essential reference for professional, academic, and personal libraries. ...

Product Description
Political and economic conditions in the republics of the former Soviet Union are in a state of flux. the Commonwealth of Independent States is probably just a transitional arrangement designed to manage the emergency of these new nations. This book gives an updated account of the region and change in the area. Four years have passed since the fall of what purported to be communism in the old Soviet Union and six years have gone by following the 1989 revolutions in Eastern Europe. What has and has not been accomplished? Few would have predicted that by 1995 Italy would have more state-owned enterprises than Russia. It was hard to imagine a Czech Republic now closer to meeting the requirements for entry into the European Monetary Union than most current members of the European Union. Progress toward a free market economy and toward democracy has been uneven--in some nations there has been virtually none, while in others it has been unexpectedly fast. Most fall somewhere in the middle. The leaders in economic reorganization the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Estonia, and, suprisingly, Russia. Ukraine will probably join this list soon. The laggards in ending state ownership are Poland and Hungary (but in these two, state-owned enterprises operate along free market principles). Slovakia initially made significant progress, but recently retreated from its reform ideals. The rest of Eastern Europe is somewhere in the middle. ... Read more
