Nordisk samarbejde med Rusland

[da, en, ru, is, no, sv, fi] "Udviklingen i Rusland er af vigtig betydning for Norden. Norge og Finland deler grænse med Rusland, mens Østersøen og Barentshavet binder alle de nordiske lande sammen med Nordens største nabo. De nordiske regeringer ønsker at videreudvikle relationerne til Rusland for at skabe vækst og stabilitet i det nordlige Europa. Samarbejdet skal bidrage til en demokratisk udvikling i Rusland og til at Rusland deltager som en aktiv partner i samarbejdet i regionen."

Communal Living in Russia

[en, ru] This Web site--an online ethnographic museum--explores and explains a striking social phenomenon: the Soviet "kommunalka," or communal apartment. Instituted after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, the kommunalka was a predominant form of housing for generations. By the 1970s, these crowded and uncomfortable apartments began to empty out in a noticeable way. But even now, when their location the most fashionable central districts of large Russian cities make them hot targets for real-estate buyouts, many remain in place, with life ordered in much the same way as it always was. On this site, we show video clips of ongoing communal apartments and their inhabitants, shot in St. Petersburg in 2006. There are also audio interviews, photographs, documents, commentaries, and explanations of many different kinds.
