Abstract

The history of ideas has played a central role in Russia's political and social history. Understanding its intellectual tradition and the way the intelligentsia have shaped the nation is crucial to understanding the Russia of today. This history examines important intellectual and cultural currents (the Enlightenment, nationalism, nihilism, and religious revival) and key themes (conceptions of the West and East, the common people, and attitudes to capitalism and natural science) in Russian intellectual history. Concentrating on the Golden Age of Russian thought in the mid-nineteenth century, the contributors also look back to its eighteenth-century origins in the flowering of culture following the reign of Peter the Great, and forward to the continuing vitality of Russia's classical intellectual tradition in the Soviet and post-Soviet eras. With brief biographical details of over fifty key thinkers and an extensive bibliography, this book provides a fresh, comprehensive overview of Russian intellectual history.

Abstract

The great age of Russian philosophy spans the century between 1830 and 1930 - from the famous Slavophile-Westernizer controversy of the 1830s and 1840s, through the 'Silver Age' of Russian culture at the beginning of the twentieth century, to the formation of a Russian 'philosophical emigration' in the wake of the Russian Revolution. This volume is a major history and interpretation of Russian philosophy in this period. Eighteen chapters (plus a substantial introduction and afterword) discuss Russian philosophy's main figures, schools and controversies, while simultaneously pursuing a common central theme: the development of a distinctive Russian tradition of philosophical humanism focused on the defence of human dignity. As this volume shows, the century-long debate over the meaning and grounds of human dignity, freedom and the just society involved thinkers of all backgrounds and positions, transcending easy classification as 'religious' or 'secular'. The debate still resonates strongly today.

Abstract

Kijk, de toerist van morgen is een ware eye-opener voor iedereen die meer wil weten van de toeristen uit de zogenaamde BRIC-landen, Brazilië, Rusland India en China. Dit boek is een initiatief van NHTV internationaal hoger onderwijs Breda met medewerking van het Nederlands Bureau voor Toerisme en Congressen (NBTC) en NRIT Media. In dit vlot geschreven uitermate toegankelijke boek maakt u kennis met de toeristen uit de opkomende markten en rekenen we af met hardnekkige misverstanden en stereotypen. We willen ondernemers en anderen die met deze toeristen in aanraking komen, laten begrijpen hoe het reisgedrag van deze veelbelovende doelgroepen is, hoe ze zich gedragen en waarom. In het boek is tevens de belangrijkste marktinformatie rond het toerisme uit de BRIC-landen samengevat en geven we aan hoe het toeristisch bedrijfsleven het beste kan inspelen op de komst van toeristen uit de BRIC-landen. Een keur aan tips, weetjes, checklists en overzichten met aanbevolen literatuur complementeren het geheel. Kijk, de toerist van morgen is een boek over marktkansen, verwachtingen en communicatie voor het toeristisch bedrijfsleven, waarmee ondernemers zich kunnen voorbereiden op de komst van reizigers uit de BRIC-landen.
