| Summary/Abstract |
MEZHDUNARODNAIA ZHIZN', a foreign policy journal, was started in Moscow in 1954 by the popular and influential Znanie (Knowledge) educational society if we trust the imprint. In fact, it was a periodical of the Foreign Ministry of the U.S.S.R.; today, 55 years later, it remains a publication of the Foreign Ministry of the Russian Federation. The Znanie Society disappeared together with the Soviet Union; today, there is no need to camouflage the editors' close creative and other ties with the Foreign Ministry. In short, I am going to write about the 55th anniversary of the journal.

| Summary/Abstract |
I first met Boris in 1950 at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations where we both applied to become students of the legendary MGIMO.
Boris was a stately dark-haired handsome fellow wearing a soldier shirt. We knew he used to fly a bomber during the war. What we did was load bombs on the plane and flew to bomb the Nazis, he was telling us, callow young guys many of whom nonetheless had had their own share of suffering during the war that ended five years before that.

| Summary/Abstract |
EXPERTS, ACADEMICS, political scientists and politicians gathered for a round table discussion at the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation to talk about Islamic radicalism, one of the hottest issues on the Russian and Central Asian agenda.
A. Pushkov, Director of the Institute of Contemporary International Studies at the Diplomatic Academy(ICIS), pointed out that the transition from unipolar America-dominated world to a multipolar world order added even more urgency to the issue under discussion.
Below is the whole range of opinions offered by the guests at the round table.
S. Nikolaev (Deputy Director, Third Department of the CIS Countries, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation) deemed it necessary to point out that Russia wants stability and security in Central Asia to be able to strengthen its strategic and allied relations with the local states, to address together the entire range of regional problems including terrorism, extremism and illegal drug trafficking.
Russia is also involved in bilateral humanitarian cooperation; it pays particular attention to the defense of the rights and interests of compatriots, is doing a lot to preserve the positions of the Russian language in these countries, to expand the Russian educational, cultural and information space in all of them. Those involved in these activities are fully aware of the potentials offered by the civil society as a whole and the Russian World Foundation in particular.
The political heavyweights - China, America, Japan, and the European Union - are displaying more interest than before in Central Asia. This does not worry Russia: for objective reasons sooner or later Central Asia will be integrated into wider cooperation formats which will add vigor to competition in all spheres. The Russian Federation does not claim the role of a monopolist in all Central Asian developments and is open for cooperation with other states.

| Summary/Abstract |
SOVIET LEADER Nikita Khrushchev's promise "We'll bury you!" has remained unfulfilled, thank God: America the Beautiful lives on and prospers. His son, Sergei, who has become an American citizen, can now reap the benefits of American civilization. His three-volume reminiscences of his father have appeared in Russian not long ago. This is a herculean work:
