Personal Interest in Doctoral Thesis Topic Most Important for Confidence in Successful Defence
A researcher at HSE University analysed data on 1,539 doctoral students from 161 Russian universities to identify which features of a thesis topic are associated with academic success and engagement. The most important factor was found to be personal interest in the research topic, which was associated with almost all key aspects of doctoral programme experience—from engaging with the academic supervisor to research activity and confidence about successfully defending the thesis. The findings have been published in Higher Education.

Researchers Develop Methodology to Assess the Quality of Legal Representation in Criminal Proceedings
Having a good defence attorney in criminal proceedings can largely determine whether a defendant retains their freedom, health and good name. Researchers at HSE University propose a method for predicting an attorney’s performance based on the outcomes of their previous cases. The methodology takes into account the severity of the charges, the complexity of the cases, and the most likely outcome, drawing on judicial statistics.

Environmental Humanities in Central Asia. Relations Between Extraction and Interdependence

L. , NY : Routledge, 2023.
Arzhantseva I., Haerke H. G.
Under the general editorship: J. Feux de la Croix, B. Penati

The Soviet authorities continued the imperial water policies of the Tsarist government in Central Asia on a much larger scale. They were supported in their destructive landscape management not just by engineers and scientists, but also by historians, archaeologists, and ethnographers, foremost among them the Khorezmian Expedition of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. These scholars were believers in socialist progress who wanted to contribute to the Soviet transformation of Central Asia by identifying, with innovative methodology, areas of ancient irrigation where they thought irrigated agriculture could be resumed. The disastrous environmental consequences (the ‘Aral Crisis’) raise questions not just about the water policies of authoritarian empires, but also about the active involvement in them of scholars from the humanities, social sciences, and related disciplines.

«Истинная вакханалия абсолютной власти»: маскарады Николая I
Voloshina S., Логос 2025 Т. 35 № 2 (165) С. 193–233
Статья посвящена исследованию маскарадов как социального и культурного феномена в эпоху правления Николая I.

Основное внимание уделяется трем типам маскарадов: придворным, аристократическим и публичным. Придворные маскарады (новогодние и июльские) служили инструментом демонстрации ...

Автор показывает, как выстраивались отношения преемников ап. Петра с франкскими правителями, византийскими ...
