Book The Marriage Laws of Soviet Russia

Download or read book The Marriage Laws of Soviet Russia written by Russian Soviet Government Bureau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Marriage Laws of Soviet Russia: Complete Text of First Code of Laws of the Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic Dealing With Civil Status and Domestic Relations, Marriage, the Family and Guardianship So in this code of laws relating to civil status and domestic relations there may be discerned three strains which mark them as the characteristic expression of the proletarian power in its struggle to bridge the transition from the old order to the new. There are, first, those aggressively revolution ary provisions aimed at the destruction of the old order; secondly, there are the temporary expedi ents which, while recogmzmg the stubborn survival of old conditions within the new order, Operate to accelerate their disappearance; and, finally, there are here also truly socialistic forms, the construct ive foundations of the new organization. In the first category, among the aggressively revolutionary features of this code, are the sharp blows struck against old oppressions, against ancient class pri vileges and barbaric taboos. Such are the clauses aimed against the domination of human relations by the temporal power of a corrupt clergy, the provisions for the abolishment of inheritance, therecognition of the social obligation for the care of children, the re-establishment of the family on the basis of descent, and the removal of the cruel dis criminations against so-called illegitimate chil dren. These provisions, to be sure, are not all es. Sentially socialistic. Certain reforms in these di rections have been accomplished in the bourgeois states of the west. But in Russia it was left to the proletariat to accomplish many revolutionary changes which the bourgeoisie had failed to accom plish. The western reader, who is at least familiar with, if not altogether habituated to, such ideas as the separation of Church and State, equality of the sexes, and the recognition of the rights of illegiti mate children, must be constantly reminded of the heavy burden laid upon the Russian proletariat by the economic and social backwardness of the country at the moment of the revolution. The full significance of such an achievement as this code can only be realized in the light of these special difficulties involved in the proletarian struggle in Russia. The Russian workers had not only to de stroy capitalism; they had also to attack the rem nants of feudalism which the Russian bourgeoisie had been too inert and too timid to disturb. Their success in this 'double task is the measure of their creative strength and ability. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Ideologies of Race written by David Rainbow and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the concept of "race" applicable to Russia and the Soviet Union? Citing the idea of Russian exceptionalism, many would argue that in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, while nationalities mattered, race did not. Others insist that race mattered no less in Russia than it did for European neighbours and countries overseas. These conflicting notions have made it difficult to understand rising racial tensions in Russian and Eurasian societies in recent years. A collection of new studies that reevaluate the meaning of race in Russia and the Soviet Union, Ideologies of Race brings together historians, literary scholars, and anthropologists of Russia, the Soviet Union, Western Europe, the United States, the Caribbean, and Latin America. The essays shift the principle question from whether race meant the same thing in the region as it did in the "classic" racialized regimes such as Nazi Germany and the United States, to how race worked in Russia and the Soviet Union during various periods in time. Approaching race as an ideology, this book illuminates the complicated and sometimes contradictory intersection between ideas about race and racializing practices. An essential reminder of the tensions and biases that have had a direct and lasting impact on Russia, Ideologies of Race yields crucial insights into the global history of race and its ongoing effects in the contemporary world.

Book Eugen Ehrlich s Sociology of Law

Download or read book Eugen Ehrlich s Sociology of Law written by Knut Papendorf and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of Eugen Ehrlich (1862-1922) is directly relevant for an understanding of law in society and of the role of sociology of law. Today, it is possible to see behind the smokescreen of historical debates and to assess Ehrlich's key ideas in the light of today's problems. The coexistence of state and local law still challenges lawyers and decision-makers. Ehrlich suggests sociology of law as an instrument to address social and legal problems that supplements standard legal methodology. The articles in this book place Eugen Ehrlich in the context of his times, outline the international reception of Ã?Â?his work, and show the relevance of his thoughts for contemporary issues.

Book Intermarriage and the Friendship of Peoples

Download or read book Intermarriage and the Friendship of Peoples written by Adrienne Edgar and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-15 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intermarriage and the Friendship of Peoples examines the racialization of identities and its impact on mixed couples and families in Soviet Central Asia. In marked contrast to its Cold War rivals, the Soviet Union celebrated mixed marriages among its diverse ethnic groups as a sign of the unbreakable friendship of peoples and the imminent emergence of a single "Soviet people." Yet the official Soviet view of ethnic nationality became increasingly primordial and even racialized in the USSR's final decades. In this context, Adrienne Edgar argues, mixed families and individuals found it impossible to transcend ethnicity, fully embrace their complex identities, and become simply "Soviet." Looking back on their lives in the Soviet Union, ethnically mixed people often reported that the "official" nationality in their identity documents did not match their subjective feelings of identity, that they were unable to speak "their own" native language, and that their ambiguous physical appearance prevented them from claiming the nationality with which they most identified. In all these ways, mixed couples and families were acutely and painfully affected by the growth of ethnic primordialism and by the tensions between the national and supranational projects in the Soviet Union. Intermarriage and the Friendship of Peoples is based on more than eighty in-depth oral history interviews with members of mixed families in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan, along with published and unpublished Soviet documents, scholarly and popular articles from the Soviet press, memoirs and films, and interviews with Soviet-era sociologists and ethnographers.
