The Post-Soviet Russian Orthodox Church - Politics, Culture and Greater Russia (Paperback): Katja Richters The Post-Soviet Russian Orthodox Church - Politics, Culture and Greater Russia (Paperback)

R1,741 Discovery Miles 17 410 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In recent years, the Russian Orthodox Church has become a more prominent part of post-Soviet Russia. A number of assumptions exist regarding the Church s relationship with the Russian state: that the Church has always been dominated by Russia s secular elites; that the clerics have not sufficiently fought this domination and occasionally failed to act in the Church s best interest; and that the Church was turned into a Soviet institution during the twentieth century. This book challenges these assumptions. It demonstrates that church-state relations in post-communist Russia can be seen in a much more differentiated way, and that the church is not subservient, very much having its own agenda. Yet at the same time it is sharing the state s, and Russian society s nationalist vision.

The book analyses the Russian Orthodox Church s political culture, focusing on the Putin and Medvedev eras from 2000. It examines the upper echelons of the Moscow Patriarchate in relation to the governing elite and to Russian public opinion, explores the role of the church in the formation of state religious policy, and the church s role within the Russian military. It discusses how the Moscow Patriarchate is asserting itself in former Soviet republics outside Russia, especially in Estonia, Ukraine and Belarus. It concludes by re-emphasising that, although the church often mirrors the Kremlin s political preferences, it most definitely acts independently. "

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Gesundheitswissenschaften, Note: 2,3, Hamburger Fern-Hochschule, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nach dem ICN-Ethikkodex haben Pflegende vier grundlegende Aufgaben: Gesundheit zu fordern, Krankheit zu verhuten, Gesundheit wiederherzustellen und Leiden zu lindern. Demzufolge ist die Pflege unabdingbar, denn es wird immer ein universeller Bedarf an Pflegende fur alle Bereiche des Gesundheitswesens geben. Das Gesundheitswesen in Deutschland befindet sich in einer schwierigen Situation, denn mit seinen aktuellen Problemen und Zukunftsaussichten ist es ein Dauerbrenner in der politischen Arena. Die Berufsgruppe der Pflege muss sich im taglichen Leben mit vielen verschiedenen Situationen auseinandersetzen und darauf richtig reagieren. Ausserdem stehen sie einer sehr hohen Belastung entgegen (Personalmangel, schlechte Arbeitsbedingungen, hoher Krankheitsstand). In diesem Sinne soll untersucht werden, welchen Einfluss die Gesundheitswissenschaft auf die Pflege hat. Dies wird am Beispiel der Pravention verdeutlicht. Das erste Kapitel beschaftigt sich mit der Gesundheitswissenschaft im Vergleich zu anderen Disziplinen, wie der Pflegewissenschaft. Anschliessend wird die Pravention von der Gesundheitsforderung abgegrenzt und es wird vertieft auf das Thema der Pravention eingegangen. Gewalt in der Pflege ist immer noch ein grosses Tabuthema in unserer heutigen Gesellschaft. Wer ist nicht uberrascht und zugleich schockiert, wenn uber Gewaltverbrechen in der Pflege berichtet wird. Aber was fur die Allgemeinheit gilt, gilt auch fur den Bereich des Gesundheitswesens. Beim Aufeinandertreffen von Pflegenden und Gepflegten kann es unter Umstanden zu verschiedenen Gewaltformen kommen. Deshalb soll im letzten Kapitel verdeutlicht werden, welche Ursachen Gewalt haben konnen und wie man sich ihnen stellen ka

In conjunction with the 100-year anniversary of the Deutscher Kunstverlag, students at the Berlin University of the Arts took part in a competition. The aim was to examine the future of books as a print medium. The fascinating works selected-including video works, installations, and book-objects-were presented in an exhibition at municipal galleries. The catalogue documents the results, presents the artists and their works, and shows pictures of the exhibition. The presentation is supplemented by a foreword by the director of the publishing house, Katja Richter, welcoming remarks by the jury member Joerg Heiser, and an essay by Ilka Backmeister-Collacott that emphasizes the importance of the print medium in the age of technology in a declaration of love to the printed book.
