During the Soviet era, political socialization emphasized Marxist ideology and loyalty to the Soviet state through propaganda and school curricula. Family values promoted Soviet ideals. Religion was suppressed by the atheist state. In post-Soviet Russia, textbooks now stress nationalism over communism while family values are personal. Secondary education is mandatory but more flexible than during Soviet times. Voting is now democratic, though some question its fairness.

Youth organizations in soviet russia
The document discusses two major youth organizations in Soviet Russia - the Komsomol and Pioneers. The Komsomol was formed in 1918 and aimed to engage youth in activities to rebuild post-war Russia. Under Stalin, the Komsomol became an arm of the Soviet state used to indoctrinate youth with Communist ideology, create a labor force, and extend Stalin's control and surveillance through its members. The Komsomol was a key tool for Stalin to consolidate his power and implement policies of rapid industrialization.
Sovietaziation of everyday life in Lithuania
The Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic was a Soviet republic that existed from 1940 to 1990. It was established as a puppet state after the Soviet army occupied Lithuania in June 1940 based on the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Between 1941-1944 it was dissolved during the German occupation of the Soviet Union, but Soviet rule was re-established after the Germans retreated in 1944-1945. Lithuania remained under Soviet rule for nearly 50 years, during which time the Soviets made reforms to make Lithuania permanently dependent on the Soviet Union politically and economically.
My perestroika
The documentary film "My Perestroika" tells the story of five ordinary Russians who lived through the fall of the Soviet Union in the 1980s and 1990s. It follows their lives from their teenage years under Soviet rule through the collapse of the USSR and into the new Russian Federation. The film uses the personal experiences of these individuals - including a history teacher, capitalist, musician, and others - to show the difficulties many Russians faced in adjusting to the new political and economic system after Soviet control ended. It aims to educate western audiences, especially Americans, about everyday life under communism and the profound changes Russians experienced during this transition period.
Eric Hobsbawm: Mass-Producing Traditions
This document discusses historian Eric Hobsbawm's work on the mass production of traditions in Europe from 1870-1914. It describes how new political and social orders during this period of industrial capitalism and nationalism led states to invent traditions to establish legitimacy and a sense of national identity. Specifically, it examines the invented traditions that emerged in France, Germany, and the United States to unite citizens and embed republican or national principles, such as public education, ceremonies, monuments, and symbols like flags and anthems. Social classes also developed invented traditions like May Day celebrations and organized sports to foster identities and communities.
STALIN PART 2: Stalin's Russia
Stalin implemented social policies in Russia between 1929-1941 that pursued both communist ideals and pragmatic realism. Education reforms advanced literacy but also spread Stalinist propaganda. Women's rights in the workforce supported industrialization but their conditions remained exploitative. Control of media and religion centralized power, though some policies like Russification aimed to equalize society. Overall, Stalin's policies frequently prioritized maintaining his authority over ideological communism.

Formal communication in an organization
Formal communication in an organization involves the sharing of official information through approved channels. It can flow downward from managers to employees, upward from employees to managers, or horizontally between employees. Common forms of formal communication include written methods like emails, memos, letters, and notices, as well as verbal methods like presentations, meetings, and conferences.

communication channels and types
Communication channels can be either guided (wired) or unguided (wireless) and are used to transmit data between a transmitter and receiver. Guided channels include twisted pair cables, coaxial cables, and optical fibers which have different bandwidth and transmission properties. Unguided channels include terrestrial microwave, satellite, and broadcast radio which propagate signals through the air. The type of channel used depends on factors like bandwidth needs, data rate, distance, and number of receivers.

Political sociology
Political sociology analyzes political phenomena ranging from states to social movements. It examines how social inequality and power influence politics. There were four stages in its development: the classical period focused on society and politics; the great debate distinguished or not between state and society; the rise of elites viewed government as self-perpetuating; and the contemporary period highlights democracy versus dictatorship. Political sociology components include the modern state formation, informal group power relationships, and how social factors outside institutions impact formal politics. Theoretical frameworks include pluralism seeing multiple social divisions, elite theory examining state constraints and interests, and class analysis focusing on class conflict and struggle across societies.

Today’s China is an interesting amalgam of communist ideology and capitalist practice. In 1949, Mao Zedong established the People’s Republic of China with himself as the ruler. Mao’s influence on China can hardly be overstated; under his dictatorial leadership, China underwent significant social, cultural, and economic change. Mao’s “Little Red Book” of communist thought and ideology was, and still is, required reading throughout China. His modernization programs quickly industrialized the country, but the Cultural Revolution decimated professional classes and easily set China back. Following his death, the Communist Party of China instituted a term limit for presidents at two five-year terms in order to limit the type of power Mao had acquired. While Chinese presidents remain quite powerful, perhaps even authoritarian, politicians since Mao have abided by these rules.
However, in March 2018, China’s National People’s Congress agreed to abolish term limits on China’s president, which had been in place since Mao Zedong in order to allow its current president, Xi Jinping, to hold power for many years to come. In addition to his position as president, Xi also holds the positions of general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission. While many in the West had hoped that economic reforms in China, allowing for some capitalist practices, would eventually lead the country to a democratic future, Xi’s consolidation of power for the foreseeable time means that nothing like democratic principles appear to be at work. The challenge, then, for political scientists, is to understand the complex politics of a country as large and as complicated as China. With its long historical traditions and blending of communism and capitalism, it is a country that the West often misunderstands.
Comparative politics is the study of countries and politics around the world; comparativists examine the same thing political scientists do in American politics but do it in an international manner. They study institutions, political parties, public opinion, and voting all around the world. Some will compare patterns in one country to patterns in another or study the politics of an entire region. The name comparative politics also applies to another aspect of study: the methodology used. In comparing and contrasting countries, comparativists seek to understand why politics is different or the same around the world.
There are many ways of looking at politics around the world. We can look at different political institutions, the executives, legislatures, and court s ...

However, in March 2018, China’s National People’s Congress agreed to abolish term limits on China’s president, which had been in place since Mao Zedong in order to allow its current president, Xi Jinping, to hold power for many years to come. In addition to his position as president, Xi also holds the positions of general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party’s Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission. While many in the West had hoped that economic reforms in China, allowing for some capitalist practices, would eventually lead the country to a democratic future, Xi’s consolidation of power for the foreseeable time means that nothing like democratic principles appear to be at work. The challenge, then, for political scientists, is to understand the complex politics of a country as large and as complicated as China. With its long historical traditions and blending of communism and capitalism, it is a country that the West often misunderstands.
Comparative politics is the study of countries and politics around the world; comparativists examine the same thing political scientists do in American politics but do it in an international manner. They study institutions, political parties, public opinion, and voting all around the world. Some will compare patterns in one country to patterns in another or study the politics of an entire region. The name comparative politics also applies to another aspect of study: the methodology used. In comparing and contrasting countries, comparativists seek to understand why politics is different or the same around the world.
There are many ways of looking at politics around the world. We can look at different political institutions, the executives, legislatures, and court s.
11social institutions
The document discusses several key social institutions from a sociological perspective:
1. Education serves functions like teaching skills, enhancing social mobility, and promoting unity, but can also support inequality, according to conflict theorists.
2. Religion can be defined as a system of beliefs and practices regarding sacred things that unite adherents, and includes theism, ethicalism, and animism. Religion both reflects and can influence society's structure.
3. Power and the state involve one party exercising power over others through legitimate or illegitimate means. Authority can be traditional, charismatic, or legal. Politics and economics vary between totalitarian and democratic states.
Democratization in Vietnam
The document discusses the history and political system of Vietnam. It covers 3 key periods: 1) The independent Democratic Republic of Vietnam led by Ho Chi Minh from 1945-1975. 2) Reunification under a socialist regime from 1975-1986. 3) Vietnam as a one-party state led by the Communist Party of Vietnam from 1986 onward, with prospects for democratization. The Communist Party maintains a monopoly on political power and cracks down on dissent, though some reforms have expanded social and economic freedoms.
Political / Civic Culture
This document discusses political and civic culture. It defines political socialization as the lifelong process through which people learn about politics through various institutions like family, peers, and work. Political culture refers to the fundamental values and knowledge that shape a political system. Civic culture can be parochial, subject, or participant. An authoritarian state may ignore, manipulate, or try to change the political culture of its citizens. Elite political culture consists of the beliefs and attitudes of political elites. The document also examines Hong Kong's political culture and its gradual shift from indifference to greater participation.
POLITICAL/CIVIC CULTURE

The document also examines political trust, social capital, and how political culture operates in new democracies, authoritarian states, and among political elites. It analyzes Hong Kong's political culture, noting it has shifted from initial political apathy to growing civic participation over time.
Fascism Communism and Democracy and Education
This document discusses different forms of government including fascism, communism, and democracy. It provides characteristics and examples of fascist governments led by Mussolini and Hitler. Key aspects of fascist education are outlined such as emphasizing character building over intellectual growth and obedience over independent thinking. Communism is described as aiming for public ownership and collective control. Figures like Marx, Lenin, and Mao are discussed. The document outlines views on communist education focusing on linking education to labor.

Slides - POLS101 Week 5 Part 1 L15.pdf
This document provides an overview of different political systems and regimes. It discusses several classifications of regimes:
1) Classical typologies that focused on constitutional arrangements and who rules and benefits.
2) The "three worlds" approach that highlighted differences between capitalist, communist, and developing states.
3) Modern criteria for classification include factors like who rules, how compliance is achieved, the balance of state and individual power, and economic organization.
4) Regimes of the modern world discussed include Western polyarchies, new democracies, East Asian regimes oriented around economic goals, Islamic theocracies, and military regimes.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Russia Political Socialization
- 1. Russia Political Culture Matt Vela Per: 3
Editor's Notes
- ALL Independent subjects abolished in 1923 (reading, writing, arithmetic, foreign lang. Etc.) – failed, revamped in 1928 Soviet’s dictated family values – women granted more autonomy than in America (given = to men in virtually everything) Religion: Discouraged and ppl. persecuted for professing belief since it threatened allegiance to the Soviet state -identified religion w/nationality Smaller the community & closer identified with particular nationality, stricter the policies
- 2ndary schools divided into 2 systems: the first 9 years + last 2 years at normal school, or attend specialized professional training school Collective spirit: most russians will acknowledge strangers and interact with them (such as at a restaurant) than remain alone Everybody’s business is everone else’s, so strangers will stop and tell others that they are breaking the rules Religion is ethnic based (more in a bit)
- Heavy burden.
- 4 yr (primary) common, 7 yr (middle) scarce => tekhnikum, 9 year => university PTU = manual labor vocational school (I.e. mechanic) Tekhnikum (after completing PTU)= Training more intricate skills (I.e. tech. Supervisor) Both together make complete 2ndary education
- No Happy Tree friends (control violence)
- Voter turnout is more than the U.S. but less than G.B. and France People believe leaders only concerned with their own power/wealth.
- Tsar was head of state
- Sects = Christians, Jews, Muslims, and non believers. Recently, the Russian Church Abroad has rejoined with the Russian Orthodox Church (after breaking in 1917)
- Freedom of speech, religion, association, etc. Interest groups allowed in the pluralist state
- Surveys find only 21% of population supports privatization of land. Surveys find ppl. think the government should own all major industrial enterprises
