Download or read book The Institutional Framework of Russian Serfdom written by Tracy Dennison and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian rural history has long been based on a 'Peasant Myth', originating with nineteenth-century Romantics and still accepted by many historians today. In this book, Tracy Dennison shows how Russian society looked from below, and finds nothing like the collective, redistributive and market-averse behaviour often attributed to Russian peasants. On the contrary, the Russian rural population was as integrated into regional and even national markets as many of its west European counterparts. Serfdom was a loose garment that enabled different landlords to shape economic institutions, especially property rights, in widely diverse ways. Highly coercive and backward regimes on some landlords' estates existed side-by-side with surprisingly liberal approximations to a rule of law. This book paints a vivid and colourful picture of the everyday reality of rural Russia before the 1861 abolition of serfdom.
Download or read book Demography of Russia written by Tatiana Karabchuk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the demographic development of Russia from the late Russian Empire to the contemporary Russian Federation, and includes discussions of marriage patterns, fertility, mortality, and inter-regional migration. In this pioneering study, the authors present the first English-language overview of demographic data collection in Russia. Chapters in the book offer a systematic overview of the legislation regulating fertility and the family sphere, a study of the factors determining first and higher order births, and an examination of population distribution across Russian regions. The book also combines research tools from the social sciences with a medical approach to provide a study of mortality rates. By bringing together approaches from several disciplines – demography, economics, and sociology – the authors of this book provide a comprehensive and detailed assessment of the historical roots of Russia's demographic development.

Download or read book Tsardom of Sufficiency Empire of Norms written by David W. Darrow and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when you measure an economy? How does measurement impact policy? In Tsardom of Sufficiency, Empire of Norms David Darrow responds to these broad questions by looking at the application and profound consequences of statistical measurement to the peasant economy in Russia, from the eighteenth century to the Civil War. Nearly all studies of Russia make reference to the land allotment, or "nadel," as a measure of peasant wellbeing. This is the first work examining the origins of the nadel, how statistical measurement converted it into a modern entitlement, and how it framed the state–peasant relationship. Land, Darrow argues, was life – peasants needed it and the state, most everyone believed, had an obligation to provide it. The question, however, was how much land was enough. Statistics supplied the answer but also locked policy-makers and society into a particular way of seeing peasants and their economy. Even the empire's final attempt to reform the peasant economy after 1905 remained locked within the old regime category of the nadel. Statistical measurement strengthened, rather than weakened, the nadel as a category of peasant economic wellbeing such that it persisted beyond 1917 into the early years of Soviet power. Based on archival sources and rural councils' statistical studies, Tsardom of Sufficiency, Empire of Norms shows how the state constructed both an image and a measure of peasant wellbeing from which it could not escape, and how the resultant perception that peasants were entitled to a sufficient allotment became a major obstacle to successful agrarian reform.

Download or read book Russian Peasant Bride Theft written by John Bushnell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the history of Russian peasant bride theft - abduction, capture - from the adoption of Christianity in Kievan Rus in the late tenth century to the very early twentieth century. It argues that bride theft in eighteenth and nineteenth century Russia was practised in large part by, but not exclusively by, Old Believers, the schismatics who rejected the Church reforms of the mid-seventeenth century and shunned contact with the Orthodox Church; and that the point of bride theft, where the bride was often a willing party, often married secretly at night by an Orthodox priest acting illegally, was to absolve the bride and her parents of the responsibility for engaging in a formal Orthodox ritual which Old Believers regarded as sinful. The book also considers how bride theft originated much earlier in Russia and was a continuing tradition in some places, and how all this fitted into the Russian peasant economy. Throughout the book provides rich details of particular bride theft cases, of Russian peasant life, and of Russian folklore, in particular bridal laments.

La salud en el medio rural ofrece nuevas perspectivas que incluyen los procesos de interacción entre salud, cultura y medicina en el marco comparado europeo. Health and Medicine in Rural Europe refleja el esfuerzo combinado de grupos de investigación de Noruega, Inglaterra y España.

La Conferencia Europea de Higiene Rural celebrada en Ginebra en 1931 y las repercusiones sobre la administración sanitaria española dan paso a una reflexión sobre las interacciones entre medicina y culturas locales en España, Noruega y la Rusia europea. La segunda parte se ocupa de la salud rural y la práctica médica: la labor de los médicos generales en los hospitales y servicios de salud de la región inglesa; la función de los médicos rurales en la sociedad valenciana y en la región de Baviera, o las estrategias de lucha contra las enfermedades infecciosas en la Valencia rural. Los dos capítulos siguientes están consagrados al paludismo en las granjas de East Anglia y a las campañas de desarrolladas en Alicante durante el primer tercio del siglo XX. La parte final se refiere a aspectos institucionales: la labor de la Acadèmia d’Higiene de Catalunya; las redes asistenciales en la Mallorca rural, los primeros hospitales infantiles en Inglaterra o la labor realizada por la Gota de Leche en Alicante.
