THE MAXIM “LAW DOES NOT ARISE FROM THE VIOLATION OF LAW” AND THE MODIFICATION OF PEREMPTORY NORMS
No full textMaxim “ex injuria jus non oritur” is not only a general legal, but also an international legal
principle, which states that law doesn’t arise from the violation of law. However, peremptory
norms of international law (jus cogens) are not something frozen. They develop, like
international law in general, so the latter expressly provides for the possibility of their
modification by subsequent norms of the same nature. This inevitably means that, in the
period of changing such norms, the behavior of some states will contradict the previous
peremptory norm until the emergence of a new peremptory norm is recognized by the
international community of states. Does the change of imperative norms result in an exception
to the above-mentioned maxim? And how do you know whether the actions of the
state or group of states have created a new peremptory norm of international law, or they
are merely a violation of the already existing peremptory norm? Can moral considerations
justify the state’s withdrawal from the maxim of “ex injuria jus non oritur” in the name of
creating a new peremptory norm of international law? Or is such a deviation justified by
the conformity of the state’s actions to any other norms? Having examined these issues,
the author comes to the conclusion that, unlike the positive law, natural law does not know
exceptions to the maxim. The author proves that the ground for the emergence of new
peremptory norms of international law creates changes in natural law
“Incommensurable Airspace”: Image of Russia in Travelogue of Maxim Nezvorov
No full textThis article analyzes the image of Russia in Maxim Nezvorov’s travelogue “Journey to Kazan, Vyatka, and Orenburg in 1800.” Based on theoretical frameworks, we identify three aspects of analysis: genre, spatiality, and subjectivity. The study employs structuraldescriptive and cultural-historical methods, alongside the foundational principles of N. L. Leiderman’s genre theory, V. L. Kagansky’s concept of cultural landscape, and B. O. Korman’s ideas on the subject of artistic text. Our findings indicate that the choice of a quasi-documentary epistolary form allowed the author to establish a commitment to authenticity, combined with a characteristically sentimental intention of the “sensitive traveler.” It is demonstrated that Nezvorov delineates a system-forming dichotomy of “centerperiphery,” within which the cultural landscape is (re)constructed. We conclude that the author evaluates a key component of this landscape — urban planning and architecture — while the landscape itself serves a supportive role. Nezvorov pays particular attention to the extraordinarily diverse ethnic composition of the empire’s population. Although he rarely grants his “interlocutors” a voice, their comments and judgments enable a partial reconstruction of the worldview of a person in the early 19th century, one of the key elements of which is the image of Russia

Germanates Built from Ge<sub>10</sub>(O, OH)<sub>27−28</sub> and Ge<sub>7</sub>(O, OH, F)<sub>19</sub> Secondary Building Units: From Systematic Study of Reported Compounds to Rational Design of Novel Structures
No full textDesign of novel porous compounds is one of the fastest-growing fields of materials chemistry due to the broad range of application including catalysis, adsorption, and separation. Open-framework germanates have shown large structure diversity and can form structures with extra-large pores. A systematic study of the structural features of the reported germanates is a key for the design of novel porous germanates. In this work, the topological study and classification of all known germanates that are built form Ge(10)(O, OH)(27-28) (Ge(10)) or Ge(7)(O, OH, F)(19) (Ge(7)) secondary building units, has been undertaken. We have demonstrated that the combination of topological technique and data mining provides a new insights into structural chemistry of a group of compounds. We proposed an efficient and general strategy for prediction of novel structures in germanates and other chemical systems.</p
JULIUS CAESAR PERSONALITY IN POETRY BY V. BRUSOV
No full textThe paper deals with V. Brusov’s verses «Julius Caesar», «October 1917» and «Caesar to Cleopatra». According to the paper’s author, Caesar depicted by V. Brusov is not only a politician, commander and master of Rome, but a person ruled by passion, feelings and emotions. The paper concludes that V. Brusov’s verses provide historic details of the Ancient Rome epoch. The author also identifies convergences, since both V. Brusov and Caesar strived for dominance – Caesar ruled over Rome, while V. Brusov was preponderant in his literary surrounding
"Na příkladu vybraných sezón Münchner Kammerspiele, Maxim Gorki Theater Berlin, Divadla Na zábradlí a Divadla Komedie (PKD)"
No full textDiplomová práce ?Dramaturgie: pokus o společenský diskurz?? popisuje a rozebírá vybrané sezony v Münchner Kammerspiele, Maxim Gorki Theater Berlin, Divadle Na zábradlí a Divadle Komedie (Pkd). Na tomto základě se zabývá jejich dramaturgickými koncepcemi a snaží se v konkrétních i obecných rysech postihnout přístupy k jejich vytváření. Soustředí se na ideové pozadí a obsahy jednotlivých pojetí a prvků, z nichž koncepce sestávají, na jejich vrstvy a vnitřní souvislosti. Autorka práce zprostředkovává a reflektuje vlastní zkušenosti se jmenovanými divadly, přičemž sleduje především jejich cílené pokusy o rozvíjení diskurzů na současná, společensky relevantní témata. Touto cestou zkoumá možnosti a podoby tzv. diskurzivní dramaturgie, kterou v práci tematizuje jako jistý směr dramaturgického uvažování, vyplývající z potřeby divadla překračovat umělou realitu jeviště a (také) mimo ni hledat svůj smysl.The thesis ?Dramaturgy as an attempt at social discourse?? describes and analyses the selected seasons at four theatres: Münchner Kammerspiele, Maxim Gorki Theater Berlin, Divadlo Na zábradlí and Divadlo Komedie (Pkd). Starting from these considerations, it examines their individual dramaturgy concepts and strives to express both specific and general features of their approach to establish them. The attention focuses on both the ideas behind and the content of individual concepts, as well as on their constituting elements, their layering and internal relationships. The author of the thesis both mediates and reflects on her own personal experience with the mentioned theatres. She is especially interested in their efforts targeting the development of various discourses related to contemporary, social-relevant themes. In this way, she explores both the opportunities and the forms of the so-called discursive dramaturgy. This concept she treats in this thesis as a particular direction of dramaturgical thinking resulting from the necessity for the theatre to get over the artificial reality of the stage, relate to the reality beyond the stage itself and look for its meaning there

Adoption of 37mm Maxim Automatic Guns by Russian Navy in Late 19th to Early 20th Century
No full textThis study investigates the adoption of Maxim automatic guns by the Russian Navy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It explores the close relationship between this topic and the development of naval artillery in Russia, as well as the dynamics of the domestic military-industrial complex and the functioning of the Ministry of the Navy of the Russian Empire during the period in question. The relevance of this research is underscored by the limited scholarship on the subject and its significance for analyzing historical experiences in weapon development. An analysis of archival sources is conducted, with many documents being introduced into scholarly discourse for the first time. The author concludes that the Russian military industry of that era was ill-prepared for the production of automatic guns. It is reported that the Ministry of the Navy deemed it unnecessary to allocate substantial financial resources for organizing their production through foreign companies. The study reveals that the ministry opted for a compromise solution, acquiring a limited number of new weapons with the intention of subsequently establishing production capabilities within domestic enterprises. Ultimately, it is established that Maxim automatic guns were never adopted by the Russian army and navy, both of which were in dire need of such weaponry during World War I
