ABSTRACT A study of the history of contacts between Novgorodian architecture and northern Europe in the late thirteenth to fifteenth centuries demonstrates that links in this sphere could hardly be described as constant. We can identify several impulses from outside, stages when western European architecture most strongly affected its early Russian counterpart (the 1290s–1310s and 1430s). This study shows that constructional and decorative elements imported from the architecture of northern Europe overlaid the local architectural tradition in Novgorodian buildings. Within a few decades, some of the new forms became customary, ‘naturalized,’ while others failed to gain the Novgorodians’ acceptance.

concrete political action) from empathy and humanism. The author’s deliberate willingness to do the opposite will therefore be a real challenge for many post-Soviet political scientists (but hopefully will be easier to understand for those who sympathize with a Tocquevillian conception of democracy). As one can already understand, Aleksandravičius’ book is characterized by its multilayered nature. By telling the story of Valdas Adamkus (which, according to the author, is deserving of a biography even if he had not become president of Lithuania), the author opens a window to a deeper understanding of backstage post-Soviet politics. Thus, a biography of one person could also be read as a study of political anthropology. The book will be interesting not only for professionals, but for all those who want to get to know the man of impressive fate and amazing activity: the President of Lithuania, Valdas Adamkus, a true Lithuanian hero.

ABSTRACT The Russian authorities’ decision to go to war in Ukraine made Kaliningraders trapped inside the EU and forced them to re-organise their daily activities. Successive restrictions and limitations cut off Kaliningraders from the luxury of living a European life. The semi-exclave’s residents are forced to face the new reality which responds to the role played by the Kaliningrad region regarding Russia, the EU and NATO. Once again, Kaliningraders are experiencing the primacy of the exclave’s military character prevailing over the issues important to local communities. The primary objective of this article is to identify the socio-economic impact of the war in Ukraine. The present article is based on the results of qualitative research conducted with residents of the Kaliningrad Oblast.
