Discover the profound insights of 'The Tragedy of Property,' a captivating exploration of Russian political culture through the lens of private ownership. Authored by Maxim Trudolyubov and published by John Wiley & Sons in 2018, this brand new hardcover book examines the unique relationship between property and power in Russia. Unlike in many Western societies where private property serves as a shield against government intervention, Russian history reveals property as a state control tool. Through vivid historical analysis, Trudolyubov highlights how Nineteenth-century liberals dismissed property rights, viewing them as a remnant of serfdom and aristocracy. After the revolutionary upheaval of 1917, property ownership transformed, especially with mass housing's rise in the 1960s, as citizens sought their own space amidst state control.With 220 pages of rich illustrations and compelling narratives, this book is essential for anyone interested in Russian history, political culture, and property rights. It's perfect for readers who want to understand the complexities of ownership in a post-Soviet context, including why many Russian entrepreneurs choose offshore investments. Experience an enlightening journey through Russia’s tumultuous past and see how property continues to shape the nation's identity.

Description:
Russian novels, poetry and ballet put the country squarely in the European family of cultures and yet there is something different about this country, especially in terms of its political culture. What makes Russia different? Maxim Trudolyubov uses private property as a lens to highlight the most important features that distinguish Russia as a political culture. In many Western societies, private property has acted as the private individual™s bulwark against the state; in Russia, by contrast, it has mostly been used by the authorities as a governance tool. Nineteenth-century Russian liberals did not consider property rights to be one of the civil causes worthy of defending. Property was associated with serfdom, and even after the emancipation of the serfs the institution of property was still seen as an attribute of retrograde aristocracy and oppressive government. It was something to be destroyed “ and indeed it was, in 1917. Ironically, it was the Soviet Union that, with the arrival of mass housing in the 1960s, gave the concept of private ownership a good name. After forced collectivization and mass urbanization, people were yearning for a space of their own. The collapse of the Soviet ideology allowed property to be called property, but not all properties were equal. You could own a flat but not an oil company, which could be property on paper but not in reality. This is why most Russian entrepreneurs register their businesses in offshore jurisdictions and park their money abroad.This fresh and highly original perspective on Russian history will be of great interest to anyone who wants

Impressed!
Color: 02 - Untinted (1.7 oz)
Just got back from a week in Florida at Disney World and this sunscreen was fantastic. I have spent hours researching different products, reading reviews and trying different things and decided to try this on my mature, acne prone skin. I applied it in the morning before leaving the hotel and once more in the middle of the day and it protected my skin from the extreme heat and sun and did not cause any breakouts. It did not run and does not cause a white cast. I would highly recommend this product!

A Daily Essential – Lightweight & Fast-Absorbing
Color: 02 - Untinted (1.7 oz)
I've made this my go-to sunscreen and use it every single day. What sets it apart is the texture – it's smooth and applies beautifully without any sticky residue, which is a game-changer for daily wear under makeup or on its own.
The absorption is impressively fast. I can apply it in the morning and not feel like I'm waiting around for it to dry down. It sinks in quickly and leaves my skin feeling clean and protected, not weighed down. For sensitive skin, this is exactly what I needed.
This is a must-have in my routine. Highly recommend if you're looking for a lightweight, non-sticky sunscreen that actually works.

Good price
Size: 50 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Gentle & Mild
Most Amazon basics items are of decent quality and this is no exception.
Nothing fancy just a decent hand soap with typical viscosity that will work in just about any dispenser including automatic dispensers.
Most importantly it does a good job cleaning the hands without leaving your hands all sticky and gooey after washing. Yeah. That really is a thing. I've used hand soaps that after rinsing and drying your left with "gheco hands" like you can pick up a penny with your knuckle.
No chemical or overpowering odor.
One odd thing. The original order came in a box that looked like the Amazon loader threw it into the back of the van from about 50 feet away .... The bottles cap was destroyed and the soap had leaked into the box. Amazon quickly replaced the item with a new bottle no charge and didn't expect me to return the damaged bottle of course. Thing is the second box came in the same condition. Looked like the punter for the Ravens drop kicked it from the 30 into the back of the truck. Luckily the bottle was undamaged this time.

Convenient refill that lasts a long time
Size: 50 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Gentle & Mild
I bought this hand soap refill to save money and reduce plastic waste, and overall I’ve been very pleased with it. The soap has a pleasant scent that isn’t too strong, and it leaves my hands feeling clean without making them feel dry afterward. I also like how easy it is to refill existing dispensers instead of constantly buying new bottles. The large refill size lasts much longer than expected, which is convenient for a busy household. However, pouring the soap into smaller dispensers can be a little messy if you’re not careful. The packaging is somewhat bulky as well. Overall, it’s an economical and practical option that works very well for everyday hand washing.

Great product at even greater price!
Size: 50 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Scent: Milk & Honey
This hand soap works very well, has a great scent, and costs less than half of inferior national brands. I have purchased 4 large refill bottles so far.
