This article serves as an introduction to the journal’s section entitled “Focal Point,” which in this issue is devoted to the topic of science cities in socialist societies.

Expertise of the Siberian Branch of the Ussr Academy of Sciences and Departmental Expertise of the Production of Viscose Cord at the Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill: The Problem of Positions Coordination

In February, 1962, the Siberian Branch approached the Council of Ministers of the USSR with the pr…

This article puts this story into the context of the formation of modern “green” ideas in the late Soviet Union and reconsiders the relationship between humans and nature, along with the definition of nature itself. Akademgorodok produced a telling visua…
