CHRISTIANS AND CIRCASSIANS. IN WASTA: THE HIDDEN FORCE IN MIDDLE EASTERN SOCIETY. ROBERT B. CUNNINGHAM AND YASIN K. SARAYRAH. WESTPORT, CONNECTICUT: PRAEGER PUBLISHERS, 1993. {"Wasta" or mediation by a third party is traditional practice in most transactions in Middle Eastern societies. Senior members of the extended family intercede on behalf of younger or less privileged members in making arrangements for employment, overseas travel, business partnerships, university admissions, bank loans, marriages, and most other out-of-the-ordinary forms of negotiation. This book describes wasta's tribal foundation, its evolution in developing bureaucracies, and its present-day practice. The authors use Jordan as an example to illustrate the challenges of doing business with public organizations in Arab countries, where kinship, ethnicity, religion, locale, and class render some individuals more privileged than others. ... Some wasta practices are legal and moral within a cultural context, resembling the services provided by attorneys, real estate brokers, and accountants in the West. Other wasta acts are illegal or questionable, but are mandated by family members in a traditional web of inter-connecting obligations. After describing wasta, the authors show how it functions to allocate scarce resources and obtain peace and justice in a desert environment. They then show how it has changed to adapt to modern governmental and bureaucratic situations in which special skills are required to deal with new and complicated rules and procedures. Settings where wasta may be observed in action are described in detail, such as the customs office, the university, government ministries, and local businesses. Personal profiles and family situations lend colour to the sociological and political analyses of wasta as it is shown in both its empowering and restrictive aspects. To summarize the impact of wasta, the authors use common theory to explain why persons turn public resources to private benefit, spreading the costs over the entire community and supporting the view that wasta can have a negative effect on economic development. The authors present a solution by suggesting that wastas themselves be enlisted in alleviating the social ills created by overdependence on the wasta system, and that past Arab and Islamic traditions should be explored for answers to modern problems.

SARAYRAH is Assistant Professor in the Department of Public Administration at Yarmouk University in Jordan}

ETHNICITY AND LANGUAGE IN JORDAN. IN THE BOOK JORDAN - A COUNTRY STUDY,, LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, 1989. {Prepared by the Federal Research Division of the Library of Congress under the Country Studies/Area Handbook Program, sponsored by the Department of the Army. "The Circassians, a Sunni Muslim community of approximately 25,000 people, were descendants of families brought from the region of the Caucasus Mountains when Caucasian territory was ceded to Russia in the 1880s. By encouraging the Circassians to settle in northern Jordan, the Ottomans sought to provide an element loyal to the sultan that could counterbalance the beduins. Circassians originally settled in Amman and the then-abandoned city of Jarash. Despite their small numbers, they have long been important in government, business, and the military and security forces. In 1938, for example, Circassians constituted 7.3 percent of the nonBritish government officials in Transjordan. Twenty-six of the thirty-three cabinets between 1947 and 1965 included one or more Circassians. Circassian families included prominent landowners and leaders in commerce and industry. Peter Gubser, a United States authority on Jordan, contended in 1983 that the Circassians were not 'politically assertive as a group,' although they were known for 'their loyalty to the Hashemites.' It is likely, however, that their relative cultural and economic importance diminished with the increasing predominance of the Palestinians on the one hand, and the improved education level of the Jordanians on the other. The Circassians remained heavily represented in senior military ranks, however, which caused some resentment among other Jordanians. All Circassians spoke Arabic and the rate of intermarriage between Arab Jordanians and Circassians was high... Another, much smaller group originating in the Caucasus was the Shishans (also seen as Chechens), whose roughly 2,000 members were Shia (see Glossary) Muslims, the only representatives of this branch of Islam in Jordan. Another religious minority were a small numbers of Arabic-speaking Druze villagers. A few Arabic-speaking Kurds lived in several northern villages... All Jordanians, regardless of ethnicity or religion, speak Arabic, the official language of Jordan."}

(130 PAGES). {ABSTRACT: THIS THESIS EXAMINES THE POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL POSITION OF THE CIRCASSIAN MINORITY IN JORDAN. ALTHOUGH THE CIRCASSIAN MINORITY CONTRIBUTES ONLY ABOUT 1% OF THE POPULATION IT OCCUPIES A DISPROPORTIONATELY INFLUENTIAL POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC POSITION. THIS THESIS PROVIDES A BRIEF HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE CIRCASSIANS PRIOR TO THEIR MIGRATION TO TRANSJORDAN, OUTLINES THE MEANS BY WHICH THE CIRCASSIANS REACHED THEIR HIGH STATUS IN JORDANIAN SOCIETY, THE METHODS BY WHICH THEY HAVE MAINTAINED THIS POSITION, AND OFFERS A PROJECTION AS TO THE FUTURE OF THE CIRCASSIANS IN JORDAN. THE HYPOTHESIS OF THIS STUDY IS THAT THE CIRCASSIAN MINORITY IN JORDAN OCCUPY THIS HIGH POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL POSITION AS A RESULT OF THEIR LOYALTY TO THE HASHEMITE MONARCHY. THIS LOYALTY TO AN EXISTING REGIME IS A UNIQUE CULTURAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CIRCASSIANS WHICH HAS DEVELOPED AS A RESULT OF THEIR HISTORY. IN THE PAST IT WAS CHIEFLY EXPRESSED IN MILITARY TERMS BUT IN THE PAST THIRTY YEARS THE CIRCASSIANS HAVE ALSO SUPPORTED THE HASHEMITE MONARCHY ECONOMICALLY AND POLITICALLY}

WORKING PAPER PRESENTED AT THE FIRST CONFERENCE ON THE SOCIAL HISTORY OF JORDAN ORGANIZED BY AL URDUN AL JADID RESEARCH CENTER AND HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF JORDAN, March 24-26, 1998. {Abstract: "This anthro-sociological study explains that the Circassians in Jordan were affected by the major political developments in the Arab region following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of the modern state in Jordan. The analysis of the impact of this effect was divided into three major phases: the period of the establishment of the Emirate of Transjordan, the establishment of the Emirate in 1921, and Jordan in the nineties... In the period before the establishment of the Emirate, the social structure of Circassian community was clannish and tribal. It was the same structure prevailing in their original home in the Caucasus, which they started to leave in the mid 19th Century. This social structure was also similar in essence to the one which governed the life of most Jordanian tribes at that time, making it easy for the Circassians to communicate effectively with other Jordanian tribes... In the second phase, that of the establishment of the modern state, new social organizations were created and began to gradually compete with the tribal and clannish system. Most important of these organizations were the Arab Legion, the government bureaucracy, civil law, and the constitution. This has placed Jordan even at this early phase on the path of progress, modernization and development... The third phase was characterized by political pluralism and a consumer-oriented market economy, thereby consolidating the values of participation, tolerance and democracy and encouraging further integration of the various social groups in the new society and the assertion of a new Jordanian identity." Dr. Kheiry is Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Jordan. The Conference was organized with the support of Rockefeller Foundation and the co-operation of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences- University of Jordan}
THE FUTURE OF CULTURAL MINORITIES. ALCOCK, TAYLOR AND WELTON. / UNI. MAN. {DISCUSSES THE DECLINE OF MINORITY LANGUAGES AND PROPOSES STRATEGIES FOR COUNTERACTING IT. "1- MINORITY CULTURES - WHAT THEY CONSTITUTE, HOW THEY RELATE TO OTHER CULTURES IN THE NATION, AND WHAT DISTINCTIVE AND TRADITIONAL ASPECTS OF THEM MINORITIES ARE ANXIOUS TO PRESERVE AND DEVELOP. 2- FORCES PLAYING UPON THEM - THE RELATIVE STRENGTH OF ECONOMIC, POLITICAL, LEGAL, RELIGIOUS, EDUCATIONAL, MASS-MEDIA AND FAMILIAL FORCES. 3- THE CHANGES TAKING PLACE IN THEM - WHETHER AND IN WHAT WAY THEY ARE BEING MODIFIED BY THE ABOVE MENTIONED FORCES, AND WHAT TRADITIONAL OR DISTINCTIVE PARTS, IF ANY, ARE BEING PRESERVED. 4- FEASIBLE MEASURES WHICH MIGHT BE TAKEN TO PRESERVE THEM. ... DIGLOSSIA: H AND L LANGUAGES DENOTING HIGH AND LOW VARIETY. THE H LANGUAGE IS ACQUIRED THROUGH FORMAL EDUCATION. THE L LANGUAGE IS USED FOR PERSONAL CONVENIENCE. DIFFERENCE WITH BILINGUALISM IS THAT THE LATTER INVOLVES TWO LANGUAGES OF EQUAL STATUS. ... A BACKLASH AGAINST THE TEACHING OF A MINORITY LANGUAGE ON THE PART OF THOSE (INCLUDING NATIVE SPEAKERS OF THE LANGUAGE) WHO ARGUE THAT IT IS 'A WASTE OF TIME' OR 'A WASTE OF MONEY' OR 'NOT IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CHILDREN'. ... THREATS TO SURVIVAL: 1- OPPOSITION DUE TO FEAR OF EDUCATIONAL DISADVANTAGE. 2- THE MASS MEDIA, WITH THEIR ALL-PERVASIVE INFLUENCE, POSE A THREAT OF INCALCULABLE MAGNITUDE TO THE SURVIVAL OF MINORITY LANGUAGES. 3- SPATIAL FACTORS. 4- EXOGAMY. ... IN THEIR FEAR OF NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES AND PREJUDICES, EXPERIENCE IDENTITY CONFLICTS AND SEEK TO AVOID ADMITTING MEMBERSHIP OF THEIR GROUP. ... A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM OF LANGUAGE MAINTENANCE IN THE CASE OF MOST MINORITY LANGUAGES IS THAT, IN GENERAL, THERE IS NO PRESSING ECONOMIC, ADMINISTRATIVE OR POLITICAL NECESSITY FOR THE LANGUAGE TO BE MAINTAINED. ... WHEN THE H LANGUAGE PENETRATES EVER FURTHER INTO ALL SPHERES OF SOCIAL ACTIVITY, THE L LANGUAGE IS INCREASINGLY LESS ESSENTIAL FOR PURELY UTILITARIAN PURPOSES. ITS ROLE IS MORE AND MORE THAT OF SERVING AS A SYMBOL OF IDENTIFICATION FOR A GIVEN COMMUNITY. BUT WHEN THE DESIRE FOR IDENTIFICATION WITH A DIFFERENT GROUP BECOMES STRONG, IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE THAT SYMBOLS OF IDENTIFICATION WITH THE MINORITY MAY BE ABANDONED. ... THE DECISIVE FACTOR IN DETERMINING THE FATE OF A MINORITY LANGUAGE IS THE DEGREE OF LANGUAGE LOYALTY SHOWN BY THE COMMUNITY OF SPEAKERS. IF THEY CONTINUE TO USE IT, IT IS LIKELY TO SURVIVE. OTHERWISE, IT WILL DIE. ... BUT TIME IS VERY SHORT AND, ... A DEAD LANGUAGE GENERALLY STAYS DEAD. ... TO GROW A SECOND TONGUE, AS HARSH A HUMILIATION AS TWICE TO BE BORN. ...

IT COVERS THE COUNTRY REGION BY REGION, TAKING THE FORM OF A LITERARY JOURNEY THROUGH THE TRANSITION FROM SOVIET GEORGIA TO THE MODERN INDEPENDENT NATION STATE. GEORGIA'S RECORDED HISTORY GOES BACK NEARLY 3,000 YEARS. THE GEORGIANS CONVERTED TO CHRISTIANITY IN 330 AND THEIR BAGRATUNI MONARCHY ENDURED FOR OVER 1,000 YEARS. THE SOVIETS RULED THE REGION FROM 1921 BUT THEIR VIGOROUS REPRESSION DID LITTLE TO ERADICATE THE STRONG GEORGIAN SENSE OF NATIONHOOD. UNDER GORBACHEV, GEORGIAN INDEPENDENCE BECAME INEVITABLE AND NASMYTH'S LIVELY AND TOPICAL SURVEY CHARTS THE NATION'S REMARKABLE CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL JOURNEY TO STATEHOOD. PETER NASMYTH IS UNIQUELY QUALIFIED TO WRITE ON GEORGIA HAVING TRAVELLED EXTENSIVELY IN THE COUNTRY OVER A PERIOD OF 5 YEARS. THIS AUTHORITATIVE, LIVELY AND PERCEPTIVE BOOK IS BASED ON HUNDREDS OF INTERVIEWS WITH MODERN GEORGIANS, FROM COUNTRY PRIESTS TO BLACK MARKETEERS. GEORGIA: MOUNTAIN AND HONOUR WILL BE ESSENTIAL READING TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN THIS FASCINATING REGION AS WELL AS FOR STUDENTS AND RESEARCHERS IN SOVIET STUDIES REQUIRING AN INSIGHT INTO LIFE AFTER THE COLLAPSE OF THE OLD SOVIET ORDER IN THE RICHEST AND MOST DRAMATIC OF THE FORMER REPUBLICS."}

HOFFECKER. {ABSTRACT OF PAPER: RECENT INVESTIGATIONS HAVE PRODUCED A GROUP OF IMPORTANT NEW MOUSTERIAN SITES IN THE NW CAUCASUS (RUSSIA). THESE SITES, WHICH RANGE IN ELEVATION FROM 100 TO 1350 m ABOVE SEA LEVEL, INCLUDE IL'SKAYA II (100 m), MATUZKA CAVE (750 m), BARAKAEVSKAYA CAVE (900 m), AND MEZMAISKAYA CAVE (1350 m). EACH CONTAINS A LARGE FAUNAL ASSEMBLAGE THAT, IN CONJUNCTION WITH FAUNAL REMAINS EXCAVATED EARLIER FROM IL'SKAYA I (100 m) AND DAKHOVSKAYA CAVE (500 m), CONSTITUTE A RICH SOURCE OF INFORMATION ON MOUSTERIAN PALEOECOLOGY IN THIS PART OF EUROPE. SITES AT LOWER ELEVATIONS YIELD REMAINS OF MAMMOTHS AND GIANT DEER; AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS, THESE TAXA ARE ABSENT BUT GOATS AND SHEEP ARE COMMON. STEPPE BISON IS THE MOST COMMON SPECIES IN A MAJORITY OF ASSEMBLAGES, AND BONE MODIFICATION AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA INDICATE THAT IT WAS PROBABLY HUNTED (AS OPPOSED TO SCAVENGED) BY MOUSTERIAN GROUPS. CAVE BEAR REMAINS EXHIBIT AN INVERSE RELATIONSHIP TO ARTIFACTS, AND MOST PROBABLY REFLECT NATURAL MORTALITY. THE ECONOMIC ROLE OF MAMMOTHS IS PROBLEMATIC; MANY BONES AND TUSKS MAY HAVE BEEN SCAVENGED OR COLLECTED.}

The soil is so fertile, and the climate so temperate, that nearly every description of grain, fruit, and vegetable might be grown with very little trouble ... Loving their wild country with passionate devotion, no reverses dishearten them. War is both their duty and their happiness ... A soft breeze just filled the sails, and with really sad hearts we watched landmark after landmark disappear, until, on rounding the headland of the bay, the last light of the little town was shut out, and we said farewell, probably for ever, to the loveliest spot we have ever seen."

PRICE: CANADA $18.95, US $14.95). {"THIS IS THE SPIRITUAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A MAN WHO INHERITED THE TRADITION OF THE FAMED PEOPLES OF THE CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS. HIS SEARCH LED HIM TO ENCOUNTERS WITH MANY REMARKABLE INDIVIDUALS AND AWAKENED IN HIM A VARIETY OF MYSTICAL EXPERIENCES. THROUGH THE TELLING OF HIS LIFE STORY HE REVEALS MUCH OF THE ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE OF THE CAUCASIAN PEOPLE, THE SECRET TRAINING OF THE BEKTASHI DERVISHES, A SEARCH FOR BURIED OTTOMAN TREASURE, AND HIS OWN RECONCILIATION WITH CHRISTIANITY AND THE WEST."... "THE AUTHOR WAS BORN INTO A CIRCASSIAN FAMILY IN ABKHAZIA, LOCATED IN THE CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS BETWEEN THE BLACK SEA AND THE CASPIAN SEA. HE RECEIVED HIS EARLIEST SPIRITUAL TRAINING FROM THE ELDERS OF HIS TRADITION OF AHMUSTA KEBZEH AND LATER WAS ACCEPTED BY AND STUDIED WITH THE BEKTASHI DERVISHES IN TURKEY. IN 1963, HE IMMIGRATED TO CANADA WHERE HE HAS BEEN PASSING ON THE ANCIENT TEACHINGS OF AHMUSTA KEBZEH. ... HE AUTHORED 3 BOOKS: THE ABKHAZIAN (CAUCASIAN?) BOOK OF LONGEVITY AND WELL-BEING, THIS ONE, AND THE TEACHINGS OF KEBZEH - ESSENTIALS OF SUFISM FROM THE CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS. IN ADDITION HE PUBLISHED SOME ARTICLES INGNOSIS, AND HAS TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH THE GATHERING, THE MYSTICAL POETRY OF SUN'ULLAH GAIBI, 17th CENTURY TURKISH SUFI MASTER AND SELECTED POEMS OF YUNUS EMRE, WHO WAS A 13th CENTURY MYSTIC. ... Mr. YAGAN, NOW AN ELDER HIMSELF, CURRENTLY WORKS WITH MANY KEBZEH GROUPS IN NORTH AMERICA AND ABROAD. HE AND HIS WIFE MAISIE LIVE IN VERNON, BRITISH COLUMBIA, WHERE THEY RECENTLY CELEBRATED THEIR 52nd WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. RETIRED FROM CARPENTRY, NOW 82 YEARS OLD, HE REMAINS EXTREMELY BUSY AND PRODUCTIVE."... "I WAS FASCINATED BY MURAT YAGAN'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY, "I COME FROM BEHIND KAF MOUNTAIN."

STRING QUARTET No. 2 IN F MAJOR Op. 92 (ON KABARDIAN THEMES). SERGE S. PROKOFIEV (1891-1953). {Composed in 1942 in Nalchik, Kabarda.Chamber music played a relatively small role in Prokofiev’s musical output. His fame rests on his orchestral music - the symphonies, concerti, ballets, film scores and piano music. However, his few chamber music works, the two string quartets, the Overture on Hebrew Themes (performed by the Sierra Chamber Society in the 1988 season) and the two sonatas for violin and piano remain popular and are often performed. ... The String Quartet No. 2 was composed in about five weeks in the autumn of 1942 in the little town of Nalchik, in the Kabardino-Balkaria Autonomous Republic, located in the foothills of the northern Caucasus mountains between the Black and Caspian Seas. During the summer of 1942, following the demise of the non-aggression pact between Hitler and Stalin, as the German Army was overrunning Russia, the Soviet government evacuated a group of its then favoured musicians, actors, artists and professors from Moscow to the safety of this little known region. ... It was under these circumstances that Prokofiev came to know of the folk music of this area. His fascination with the music led him to write this Quartet, the aim of which was to achieve, "a combination of virtually untouched folk material and the most classical of classical forms, the string quartet." ... Each of the three movements of the work contains actual folk songs and dances. Prokofiev took care not to prettify the music. He strove to keep the often harsh harmonies and "barbaric" rhythms of the originals, as had Stravinsky, Bartok and Skzymanowski in their use of folk materials of Russia, Hungary and Poland. In his faithfulness to his sources, Prokofiev came under adverse criticism from the official critics who also praised him for his use of folk music. Despite the carping of the critics, the work was an immediate success. The work was premiered by the renowned Beethoven Quartet in Moscow on September 5, 1942 but the start of the performance had to be delayed due to a German air raid. ... The first movement (Allegro sostenuto) is based on the dance, Udzh Starikov, heard at the beginning and on the song Sosruko, in which three players create an accordion-like accompaniment to the song, sung by the violin. ... The second movement (Adagio) is based on a Kabardian love song, Synilyaklik Zhir, given to the cello to sing in a high voice. The middle section utilizes a folk dance, Islamei, which seeks to imitate the sound of the kemange, a variety of spike fiddle originating in Persia and in use in various forms throughout the Middle East. It is a long necked fiddle with typically 3 strings. It is held vertically, with the spike resting on the player’s knee and bowed. The movement ends with a brief return of the opening song. ... The third movement (Allegro) is based on a mountain dance known as Getegezhev Ogurbi alternating with two lyrical themes and a reminiscence of the first movement.}

THE HAPLESS, SOME SAY LUCKY, COMPOSER HAD TO APOLOGIZE PUBLICLY FOR HIS "ABSENT-MINDEDNESS" ZHDANOV DECREE - 1948: ON THE OPERA, VELIKAYA DRUZHBA by V. MURADELI - DECREE OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE C.P.S.U. (b) of the 10TH. FEBRUARY 1948. ... The Central Committee of the C.P.S.U. (b) considers that the opera Velikaya Druzhba (The Great Friendship) (music by V. Muradeli, libretto by G. Mdivani), produced by the Bolshoi Theatre of the U.S.S.R. to mark the 30th. anniversary of the October Revolution is an inartistic work, faulty both musically and as regards to its subject matter. ... The main shortcomings of the opera are primarily rooted in its music. The music of the opera is inexpressive and poor. It does not contain a single striking melody or aria. It is confusing and inharmonious, being constructed on pure dissonances and on ear-splitting sound combinations. Individual passages and scenes which lay claim to be melodious, are suddenly interrupted by inharmonious noise, completely alien to the normal human ear and which has an oppressive effect on the hearer. There is no organic connection between the musical accompaniment and the development of the action on the stage. The vocal part of the opera - choral, solo and group singing - produces an impression of poverty. In view of all this, the potentialities of the orchestra and the singers remain unused. ... The composer has not made use of the wealth of popular melodies, songs, refrains, dance motifs, in which the creative work of the peoples of the U.S.S.R. is so rich and, in particular the creative work of the peoples inhabiting the Northern Caucuses, where the action depicted in the opera takes place. ... In the chase after spurious "originality" in music, the composer Muradeli has neglected the best traditions and experience of the classical opera as a whole and Russian classical opera in particular, which is distinguished for its wealth of inner content, its richness in melodies and breadth of diapason, its popular nature, its exquisite, beautiful and clear musical form which has made Russian opera the best in the world, a genre of music loved by and accessible to wide sections of the people. ... The subject matter of the opera is historically false and artificial; it lays claim to depict the struggle for the establishment of Soviet power and the friendship of the peoples in the Northern Caucuses in the years 1918-1920. It gives the incorrect impression that Caucasian people such as the Georgians and Ossetians were at that period hostile to the Russian people, which is historically untrue, since the impediment to the establishment of the friendship of people at that period in the Northern Caucuses were the Inguishi and Chechentsy.}

Price: 75 Pounds Sterling = $125 ). {Situated between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, Daghestan is an inaccessible and mountainous part of the Caucasus, an autonomous region first of the Soviet Union and now of Russia, flanked by the mighty Russian and Persian empires. Kaitag art, from a small region in the south of Daghestan, is the creation of a multi-ethnic people, incorporating Zoroastrian, Muslim, Christian, Jewish and pagan symbolism. This remarkably vibrant and beautiful tradition is found mostly in the rectangular panels embroidered with vividly coloured silks that are the subject of this book. Examples are attributed to the 16th through to the 19th centuries. The geography of the region and the self-contained and inward-looking pattern of living of the Kaitag people were major factors in the confinement of such a distinct art to such a small group of villages. ... The vast repertoire of designs is the legacy of the history of the region and the multi-religious society that produced them. Byzantine, Fatimid, Mongolian, Timurid, Mamluk, Chinese, Ottoman and Celtic forms, many of great antiquity, combined with local animist art in a glorious diversity: hieroglyphic motifs, sun signs, birds signs, sun bursts, octagons, cosmic columns, horns, crosses, fantastic crab-like beasts, elk, reindeer, fat swordfish, dragons, amoebae-like shapes, masks and even foetuses can be identified. Many ancient talismanic symbols occur, for these panels were used in rituals associated with birth, marriage and death - to wrap cradles or as dowry covers, for example. A number of the motifs can also be found on local tombstones. ... The design bravado of the embroideries, with their shimmering colour density and the assured juxtapositioning of colour and texture gives them a contemporary significance. The designs have a confidence and verve which evoke a sense of recognition and pleasure in an audience far removed in history and culture from their original owners, to whom they were evidently of powerful totemic significance. Indeed, the more abstract among the embroideries stand on a par with the work of 20th-century Western masters such as Klee, Miro and Matisse. ... THE BOOK: In his text, Robert Chenciner has skilfully combined Kaitag history, philology, ethnography, material culture and textile technology to provide a context for their rich and exciting art. To accompany the text, forty-seven outstanding Kaitag panels, representing the extraordinary variety of designs, colours and techniques which combine to create these great masterpieces, are presented on full colour plates. These also form part of a comprehensive catalogue of 171 examples, each illustrated in black and white, with a full description and technical analysis. The embroidery stitches are fully explained with diagrams, and many of the dyes have been analysed. This catalogue will doubtless serve as the definitive reference work on Kaitag art. ... REVIEWS: ...a thoroughly researched and superbly illustrated catalogue raisonne. [Chenciner] provides the first thorough contextual survey of Kaitag and ethnography, as well as of all aspects of the embroideries themselves. - Hali, The International Magazine of Carpet and Textile Art. ... This is one of the most absorbing books on art published [recently]..., and the colour illustrations make the most of the staggering repertoire of patterns and colours in Kaitag art. - Cornucopia. The author is a Senior Associate Member of St. Antony's College, Oxford, and an Honorary Member of the Daghestan branch of the Academy of Sciences of Russia, and he has been studying textiles from a wide range of cultures for over fifteen years. He originally obtained permission to visit Daghestan in 1986, and during six years of ethnographic fieldwork with his collaborator Dr Magomedkhan Magomedkhanov visited hundreds of villages. He found that many traditional customs have survived, and the local people helped answer various questions about the embroideries and their usage.}

KIRK WYNN'S OVERVIEW OF CAUCASIAN BOOKS [KCORTA NEWSLETTER, DECEMBER 1997], KIRK WYNN. {Critique of books on Caucasian rugs and carpets. Must be read: "If I could only have one book on Caucasian rugs, it would have to Oriental Rugs: Volume 1 -- Caucasian by Ian Bennett. With hundreds of color plates, one can invariably find a plate for comparison with the Star-Kazak discovered in the dumpster behind Kmart or the Marasali sandwiched between doilies at the church bazaar. The text is useful and informative, giving hints on dating, attribution, and aesthetics. The only drawback is the lack of structure details as the plates were lifted from Nagel catalogs. As a result, a photo that looks like a typical Akstafa winds up in the "Akstafa" section regardless of construction, the true arbiter in the determination of origin. The Gendje section contains rugs that might be Kazaks or Moghans (does anyone really know what a Gendje is?). Ultimately, these categories are all Ulrich Schurmann's doing. ...

GEOTHERMAL UTILIZATION IN DAGHESTAN, USSR [GEO-HEAT CENTER BULLETIN, Vol. 12, No. 1, Autumn 1989], JOHN W. LUND. {"Daghestan, an Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (ASSR), founded in 1921, is located on the western shore of the Caspian Sea. It also borders on the Caucasus mountain to the south, hence the name "Land of Mountains" -- the meaning of Daghestan. The elevation of the republic varies from almost 100 feet (30 m) below sea level at the Caspian Sea to 14,700 feet (4,482 m) in the south. Because of the steep mountains and valleys, most of Daghestan's mineral resources are untapped. Oil and natural gas are tapped along the coast, and some hydro-power is produced in the mountains. ... The Caucasus figured greatly in the legends of ancient Greece. Persians, Khazars, Arabs, Huns, Turko-Mongols, and Russians have invaded and migrated into the Caucasus, giving the region its ethic and linguistic complexity. Islam was introduced by the Arabs in the 7th century A.D.; Turkey and Persia struggled over it in the 15th century; and it was a Persian province when Russia annexed it in 1813. Daghestan has over 40 nationalities and 11 languages are used by radio, television and newspapers. Unlike some of the Soviet republics in the area, the various ethnic groups live in peace. ... Daghestan is situated at approximately the same latitude as Oregon and has similar climate regions. The population, 1.8 million, is slightly less than Oregon's; however the area is only 19,400 square miles (50,300 sq. km), one fifth of Oregon's. The capital, Makhachkala (population 300,000), is located on the shores of the Caspian Sea. Derbent in the south along the coast, is a walled city, situated on one of the branches of the "silk route," and is estimated to be 5,000 years old."}

HELIUM CONTENT IN THERMAL WATERS IN THE CAUCASUS FROM 1985 TO 1991 AND CORRELATIONS WITH THE SEISMIC ACTIVITY [TECTONOPHYSICS (ISSN 0040-1951), Vol. 246, No. 4, 1995, pp. 263-78], F. BELLA, P. F. BIAGI, M. CAPUTO. {Abstract: A wide data set of groundwater helium content collected in the Caucasus from 1985 to 1991 has been analyzed. The strongest earthquakes that occurred in this area during the helium measurement period were the: Paravani (May 13th, 1986, M = 5.6), Spitak (December 7th, 1988, M = 6.9) and Georgian (April 29th, 1991, M = 6.9) earthquakes. The analysis of the helium content data revealed statistically significant increases in this parameter on the occasion of the Paravani and Spitak earthquakes and no increase on the occasion of the Georgian earthquake. These results corroborate those obtained by the analysis of scanty helium content data presented in previous papers. With the exception of the anomalous increases, the helium content data were subjected to randomness tests and spectral analysis and cross correlation with meteorological parameters and areal seismicity were also attempted. The main result obtained is that the destructive Spitak earthquake produced some statistical changes in the groundwater helium content fluctuations some years before and after its occurrence.}

JURASSIC RESERVOIRS OF THE GREATER CASPIAN REGION: COMPONENTS OF A LARGE-SCALE FLUVIO-DELTAIC TO OCEANIC SAND SYSTEM. GRAHAM BLACKBOURN. PAPER PRESENTED AT THE CASPIAN SEA CONFERENCE, NOVEMBER 1997. {"The Caspian area was crossed by a major Early and Middle Jurassic fluvial-deltaic to marine sand system, extending from the Southern Urals to the Great Caucasus, which deposited some of the most important reservoir sandstones in the region. Rivers transported huge volumes of sand across Western Kazakhstan and the present Caspian area, into the Great Caucasus Basin, where over 9 km of deltaic deposits range form delta-top coal swamps to deep-marine deposits. Most of the sand by-passed Western Kazakhstan at first (Toarcian-Aalenian), and was carried far out into the Caucasus Basin. As the coastline transgressed gradually northeastward, the focus of sand deposition moved with it. By the late Bajocian, deposition in the Northeast Caucasus was dominated by silts and clays, whereas thick sands were deposited in Mangyshlak and Ustyurt. ... Age equivalent sandstones either side of this major fluvio-deltaic axis are part of the same regional depositional system. These include fluvial and shallow-water reservoir sandstones to the northwest and southeast of the Dagestan delta in the Pre-Kuma region and in northeastern Azerbaijan respectively, similar littoral deposits in Northwestern Turkmenistan, and Jurassic reservoirs of the Precaspian Basin. ... The paper will consider the development of these Jurassic depositional systems, and will make predictions regarding the location and quality of potential Jurassic reservoirs around and below the Caspian Sea."

L. BAZHENOV, V. S. BURTMAN AND N. L. LEVASHOVA. {Abstract: We studied Lower Jurassic (Pliensbachian-Toarcian) basalts and tuffs and Middle Jurassic (Bajocian) limestones and marls from 9 sites in the southern part of the Lesser Caucasus (ca. 39.3@*N, 45.4@*E). A component showing rectilinear decay to the origin was reliably isolated from most volcanics. This characteristics component reveals nearly antipodal directions for both polarities and passes the fold test; the conglomerate test performed on lava boulders from the Aalenian basal conglomerates is also positive. We think that a primary remanence (D = 20@*, I = 38@* a95 = 5@*) was isolated from the volcanics. In contrast, Middle Jurassic sediments yielded controversial results, and the only reliably isolated intermediate-temperature component (ITC) does not pass the fold test. The ITC directions show a considerable improvement in data grouping during incremental unfolding, with a maximum at 40% unfolding. We argue, however, that the thus obtained mean direction does not correspond to any paleofield and is most probably an artefact.When compared to reference data for the Eurasian and African plates, the Lower Jurassic mean inclination of 21@*N @+ 4@* agrees well with the latter, thus implying that, in the Early Jurassic, the area studied belonged to Gondwana and was separated by the Tethys ocean from Eurasia, in agreement with paleontological data. We tried to locate the position of the boundary between the Eurasian and Gondwanian realms in the Caucasus region in the Early-Middle Jurassic; unfortunately, the available Jurassic paleomagnetic data from other tectonic units of the region did not reveal any clear pattern.}

OXYGEN ISOTOPIC AND GEOCHEMICAL EVIDENCE FOR A SHORT-LIVED, HIGH TEMPERATURE HYDROTHERMAL EVENT IN THE CHEGEM CALDERA, CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS, RUSSIA [JOURNAL OF VOLCANOLOGY AND GEOTHERMAL RESEARCH (ISSN 0377-0273), Vol. 73, No. 3-4, 1996, pp. 213-44], C. GAZIS, H. P. TAYLOR AND K. HON. {Abstract: Within the 2.8 Ma Chegem ash-flow caldera (11 @? 15 km), a single cooling unit of rhyolitic to dacitic welded tuff more than 2 km thick is exposed in deep valleys incised during recent rapid uplift of the Caucasus Mountains. The intracaldera tuff is mineralogically fresh and unaltered, and is overlain by andesite lavas and cut by a resurgent granodiorite intrusion. Major- and trace-element compositions for a 1405-m stratigraphic section of intracaldera tuff display trends of upwardly increasing Na"2O, CaO, Al"2O"3, total Fe, MgO, TiO"2, Sr and Zr and decreasing SiO"2, K"2O and Rb. This mafic-upward zoning (from 76.1 to 69.9% SiO"2) reflects an inverted view of the upper part of the source magma chamber. Oxygen isotope studies of 35 samples from this 1405-m section define a striking profile with @?normal@? igneous @d^1^8O values (+7.0 to +8.5) in the lower 600 m of tuff, much lower @d^1^8O values (-4.0 to +4.3) in a 700-m zone above that and a shift to high @d^1^8O values (+4.4 to +10.9) in the upper 100 m of caldera-fill exposure. Data from two other partial stratigraphic sections indicate that these oxygen isotope systematics are probably a caldera-wide phenomenon. Quartz and feldspar phenocrysts everywhere have @?normal@? igneous @d^1^8O values of about +8.5 and +7.5, respectively, whereas groundmass and glass @d^1^8O values range from -7.7 to +12.3. Consequently, the @d^1^8O values of coexisting feldspar, groundmass and glass form a steep array in a plot of @d"f"e"l"d"s"p"a"r vs. @d"g"r"o"u"n"d"m"a"s"s"/"g"l"a"s"s. Such pronounced disequilibrium between coexisting feldspar and groundmass or glass has never before been observed on this scale. It requires a hydrothermal event involving large amounts of low-^1^8O H"2O at sufficiently high temperatures and short enough time (tens of years or less) that glass exchanges thoroughly but feldspar does not. The most likely process responsible for the ^1^8O depletions at Chegem is a very high temperature (500-600@*C), short-lived, vigorous meteoric-hydrothermal event that was focused within the upper 750 m of intracaldera tuff. Mass balance calculations indicate fluid fluxes of @? 6 @? 10^-^6 mol cm^-^2 s^-^1. We believe that the closest historical analogue to this Chegem hydrothermal event is the situation observed in the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes (Alaska, USA), where hundreds of steam fumaroles with measured temperatures as high as 645@*C persisted for 10 to 15 years in the much smaller welded ash-flow tuff sheet (@? 200 m thick) produced by the 1912 Katmai eruption.}

BYLIM. {Abstract: The changes which have taken place in post-socialist Russia have resulted in the appearance or increase of inter-ethnic conflicts, e.g., in Chechnya, Abkhazia, Armenia, Azerbaijan in the Caucasus region. These have led to social breakdown and to deep psychological crises, physical diseases and psycho-adaptive states. About 1520 refugees have been registered in the region and 256 were consulted. 85% showed psychic disturbance caused by prolonged stress. An analysis of the data obtained divided the refugees into three groups. The first consisted of those who were forced to flee due to the economic situation and provocation of inter-ethnic conflicts. They had not experienced physical violence and had saved most of their possessions. The second group were victims of physical violence and oppression and had had their own and their relatives' lives threatened as well as losing part or nearly all of their possessions. The third group were those who were forced to flee because war had begun in their region. Each group needed specific psychotherapy and psychological treatment.}

THE FORMS OF PHOSPHORUS IN HUMIC AND FULVIC ACIDS OF A TOPOSEQUENCE OF ALPINE SOILS IN THE NORTHERN CAUCASUS [GEODERMA (ISSN 0016-7061), Vol. 80, No. 1-2, 1997, p. 61-73], M. I. MAKAROV, T. I. MALYSHEVA, L. HAUMAIER. {Abstract: Chemical fractionation and ^3^1P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of humic acids (HA) and fulvic acids (FA) were used to characterize the forms of phosphorus and their changes within a toposequence of alpine soils at the Mt. Malaya Khatipara (Teberda reserve, northwestern Caucasus). Sodium hydroxide extracted 66-82% of total phosphorus from A horizons and 28-51% from B horizons. Organic P amounted to 92-99% of NaOH-extractable P. HA represented the major part of extracted organic P (52-90%). The P species in HA and FA comprised phosphate monoesters (40-86%), phosphate diesters (up to 22%), phosphonates (up to 8%), sugar-diester phosphates (up to 14%), pyrophosphates (up to 11%), polyphosphates (up to 16%), and unknown compounds (up to 6%). Inorganic orthophosphate was found in appreciable proportions only in HA of organic horizons and in FA (up to 16%). The percentages of phosphonates and phosphate diesters were higher in HA, those of sugar diesters and pyrophosphates were higher in FA. Within the toposequence, the contribution of labile P species to total P in HA of surface soil layers increased with increasing thickness of snow cover during winter and correspondingly shorter vegetation periods. The P-speiies distributions in HA of subsoil horizons were rather similar throughout the toposequence. HA of the surface soils thus seemed to best characterize the P dynamics in these soils.}
THE HEALTH STATUS IN THE BORDER COMMUNITIES OF POST-SOVIET SOCIETY: HEALING NEW NATIONS OR OPENING NEW WOUNDS? JOANNE M. NEUBER. CCIH '96 ABSTRACT/PAPER. {"This paper explores the status of Russian Federation border health populations in the North Caucasus as they deal with the socio-economic of transforming from a centralized, Soviet health system to a more competitive, market-oriented health system. It discusses the economic constraints of transition that threaten to further exacerbate the health situation in these border communities, and the difficult legacy of their Soviet past--a past characterized by years of suppression, forced deportation and economic hardship that has caused continued conflict and distrust between various ethnic groups that is becoming more acute today. That distrust has prompted not only heightened political conflict between centre and periphery, but has also strained social and health services in border communities, as is evidenced by leading demographic statistics for the North Caucasus. The case studies presented in this paper will cite the neglect of health services among these border communities throughout the Soviet era that has been exacerbated recently by a rise in centre-periphery tensions and heightened calls for sovereignty in the Caucasus. This paper will conclude that there are many unresolved political and economic issues that need to be resolved if improved health status is to be expected--not only in these border populations, but in our global health community."

THE PREVALENCE OF THE CORONARY HEART DISEASE (CHD) AND DISLIPOPROTEINAEMIAS IN DIFFERENT ETHNICAL GROUPS. H. A. KOURDANOV, L. M. BATYRBEKOVA, INTERNATIONAL CENTER OF MEDICAL AND BIOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF RUSSIAN AND UKRAINIAN ACADEMIES OF SCIENCE, NALCHIK, ELBRUS TERRITORY, RUSSIA. {"The prevalence of CHD and dislipoproteinaemias among the males at the age of 40-59 (Russians, Kabardinians, Balkarians) who live in the North-Caucasian region (the number of investigated males is 1051), was studied. ... The prevalence of CHD among the Russian city-dwellers was higher (17%) than that of the villagers (7.9%),. p<0.01. The same was among the Kabardinians (21.9% and 6.5: p<0,01). But there were not noted such differences among the Balkarians. ... Among the Russian city-dwellers the mean quantity of cholesterol (CH) was higher (213.6 ± 2.6) than that of the villagers (192 ± 3.2) p < 0.01. The corresponding numbers for the Kabardinians were 214.3 ± 3.9. and 195,5 ± 5,1; p < 0,01. The Balkarians had no statistic differences. ... There were differences in the level of triglicerides only among the Russian city - dwellers -134.1 ± 5,7 and 112,7 ± 4,8; p < 0,01. ... Their level of CH HDL was also lower (41.2 ± 1.0) than that of the villagers (51.1 ± 1.3); p < 0.01. There was the same regularity among the Balkarians. ... Thereby, the prevalence of CHD in different ethnical groups was associated with the level of the basic lipid indicators, that can point both at direct and indirect connections with other risk factors."

A. GAZIS, M. LANPHERE AND H. P. TAYLOR. {Abstract: Volcanic and intrusive rocks of the Chegem caldera and the nearby Eldjurta (Eldzhurtinskiy) Granite record a late Pliocene episode of silicic magmatism in the north-central Caucasus Mountains. Surface exposures, created by the recent rapid uplift and erosion of the Caucasus Mountains, span a 2 km vertical section of Chegem caldera fill and 1150 m of the Eldjurta Granite; cored mineral-exploration drillholes in the Eldjurta Granite extend the sampling to a depth of 4 km. The unique sampling range available in these two young igneous bodies affords an excellent opportunity to study their denudation and cooling histories, which we examine by means of ^4^0Ar^3^9Ar and^1^8O^1^6O measurements on an extensive sample suite. Total-fusion biotite and sanidine ages from eight Chegem Tuff samples, both intracaldera and outflow, are analytically indistinguishable with a weighted mean of 2.82 @+ 0.02 Ma. A cross-cutting granodiorite porphyry intrusion has a sanidine total fusion age of 2.84 @+ 0.03 Ma, and whole-rock incremental heating of a post-caldera andesite flow, which caps the caldera fill, yields an age of 2.82 @+ 0.02 Ma. Thus, caldera formation and post-caldera resurgence and volcanism all occurred within a very short time (< 50,000 yr). Biotite total-fusion ages of ten Eldjurta Granite samples, including seven from @? 500 m intervals in the 4 km deep drillhole, show a systematic linear decrease in age with depth from 1.90 Ma near the roof contact of the granite to 1.56 Ma at a depth of 3700 m. Assuming these ages were set at the same temperature, this age/depth gradient implies an isotherm migration rate of 13 mm/yr between 1.90 and 1.56 Ma. This migration rate is due to a combination of rapid denudation and downward relaxation of isotherms, with cooling rates between 200 and 500@*C/Ma during this period. Oxygen isotopic compositions of quartz, K-feldspar, plagioclase and biotite from the drillhole samples below the 800 m depth are fairly uniform and record primary igneous @d^1^8O values with little evidence for subsolidus hydrothermal activity. However, in surface outcrop samples and in the shallowest drillhole sample, mineral @d^1^8O values have been lowered by up to 3@% by interaction with an external (meteoric-hydrothermal?) fluid. The primary mineral @d^1^8O values of the Eldjurta Granite are distinctly higher than the corresponding phenocryst @d^1^8O values in the Chegem volcanic rocks, indicating that the two bodies evolved as separate magma batches.}
