The research represents the word building categories and types of nouns in the Gotze Delchev dialect. The material has been excerpted from the two dictionaries of member-correspondent Prof. K. Mirchev. They represent a very good foundation for research at this linguistic level since not only the lexical but also the word—building meaning of the words can be extracted from both the dictionary units of one word-building nest and from the well selected illustrative material to them. The material in the dictionaries provides the opportunity to present an almost complete picture of the word-building system of the nouns. The names of almost all word-building categories were found.

Changchun Automobile Plant No. 1 is known as the cradle of China’s automobile industry. It was the first automobile plant in the People’s Republic of China. The plant became the foundation for the car industry in the country.

Specialists from the USSR participated in the whole process of automobile plant construction. The plots for the plant were chosen, all facilities were designed, Soviet production technologies together with modern equipment were transferred. About 200 highly qualified specialists of the Moscow Automobile Plant named after Stalin were sent on a business trip to China. Today, FAW (First Automotive Works), established on the basis of the “Auto Plant No 1”, is the largest industrial group in China for the production of cars and other equipment. The research is based on the information obtained from Chinese sources and memories of the participants of the events.

This article presents a study of daily life of the Soviet elite, the leading people of the Leningrad City Council (P. F. Ladanov, N. I. Smirnov) and the Leningrad Regional Council (I. P. Petrov, V. N. Ponomarev, G. I. Vorobyov) in 1950–1956. A historical analysis of emotions makes it possible to rethink the era by answering such questions as: Whom the Soviet elite did love, and whom did they fear during the period of late Stalinism and the beginning of the “Khrushchev thaw”? What was the official behavior of a state leader? How and under what circumstances did non-politicized emotions arise? The study is based on sources of a personal origin: materials of official speeches, published and unpublished reports, materials of personnel files (including autobiographies), photo documents and sound documents, and memoirs of contemporaries. Additionally, office documents (transcripts of meetings, plenums, meetings, council sessions) deposited in the archives of St. Petersburg and Moscow associated with the activities of local government in Leningrad and the oblast were studied. The period 1950–1956 was when new, loyal managers were appointed to “empty” posts after the Leningrad Affair. One of the main tasks that confronted them in the first period was completing work on identifying “anti-party” elements in their ranks. In the leadership structures there was an atmosphere of suspicion and denunciation. Finally, tracing aspects of the transformation of these leading cadres at the beginning of the Thaw provides curious insights.

The Modern Greek state was established in 1830. In the period immediately after the establishment of the modern Greek nation state, Greece was institutionalized by the powerful European patrons, whose goal was to control the wider southeast Mediterranean region. However, this was neither the beginning, nor the end of the process of building the Greek nation and national identity. In the 19th and early-20th centuries, Greek nationalism was particularly susceptible to change. The ideological background of Greek nationalism played an important part in “proving” the Greek character of Ottoman Macedonia. The national myth created was of great help and used alongside other propaganda activities, especially the armed activities during the Greek “Macedonian struggle”. The final goal was to be in accordance with Greek foreign politics—the Megali Idea, i.e. the annexation of Macedonia within the Kingdom of Greece and incorporation of the majority of the Macedonian Orthodox population into the Greek nation state.

By the end of the 19 century the Macedonian revolutionary movement has seen substantial growth under the leadership of the IMRO. In this period IMRO started to arm itself. These activities attracted the attention of the Ottoman authorities, which took serious measures to eliminate the Macedonian revolutionary movement. As a result of these measures, in January 1901 the Ottomans found certain illegal activists of the IMRO. The authorities started series of investigations which eventually resulted with a trial. Even the members of the IMRO Central Committee were convicted. The defendants were sentenced for actions against the integrity of the Ottoman Empire, with a final goal: “establishment of an independent Macedonian state” or “setting up an autonomous authority in Macedonia”. This event, named “The Saloniki Affair”, left long term consequences on the future development of the Macedonian revolutionary movement.

In the Austro-Hungarian Empire Sombor was the centre of the Bačka Bodrog County or the centre of administration, economy and culture of a broader region, whose greater part presently occupies the territory of Western Bačka. The town housed a significant number of Serbian intellectuals gathered around civil publication print and Preparatory School – the Teacher Training School that had already cherished the tradition for more than a century. Bearing this in mind, Hungarian authorities were trying to prevent any form of national emancipation by the means of rigid political and military measures during the war. The last war months were characterized by ebullitions within the corpus of the Serbs and Bunjevci whose motive was deliberation from the power of the Monarchy and unity with the Kingdom of Serbia. In the beginning of November 1918, the National Assembly of the Serbs and Bunjevci was founded. The Assembly welcomed the Serbian army and by their support took over the civil administration over the former county. By doing so they prevented the occurrence of dual rule which could produce national and political complications. Among other citizens of Sombor who deserved credit for this project, Jovan Joca Lalošević and Antun Bošnjak were the most meritorious. Delegated representatives of the town of Sombor gave significant support in the work and organization of the Great Peoples Assembly, which aimed at uniting Vojvodina (Banat, Bačka and Baranja) with the Kingdom of Serbia. Lalošević was heavily engaged in composing of the Assembly resolution that promoted the broadest democratic principles and national differences in order to present the foundation of the new state in the light of a responsible project which would not repeat negative discriminative experience of the multinational AustroHungarian Monarchy. Joca Lalošević was the president of the National Government which carried out the complete Vojvodina administration takeover. The significance of Sombor and its men of national push and go could be seen in the fact that the King Aleksandar Karađorđević paid a visit to the town in order to express his gratitude to Sombor citizens and the role they played in the establishment of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.
