In English Author: Hellevig Jon. This book is a unique presentation starting with the basic elements of philosophy and language and then building up to a description of social and political life dealing with dimensions such as: democracy, law, economy and moral, which are all showed to be perceptions resulting from social practices. Competition is the key denominator for all these aspects of social life. With the fundaments laid the presentation moves on to deal with post-Soviet Russian social reality and especially with the emergence of Russian law from the ashes of Soviet past. The main theses the book builds on are that: - Language represents interpretation of feelings and there is nothing more fundamental to it - We need to make a sharp distinction between natural sciences and social sciences; Competition like we understand it in Economics is the organizing idea of all social cognition and sciences (although we have to be on our guard with the notion science) - Law is first time ever properly defined as a Competition of Arguments - Law is the result of social practices (legal practices). Law in an emerging country such as - It is claimed that the Russian leadership has been successfully tackling these issues.

Hellevig Jon. Avenir Guide to Russian Taxes. Third, updated and expanded edition. The Russian taxation system is on its way from conception to maturity. With the Russian Tax Code the taxation rules have become much clearer, but in spite of the initial clarity the Russian taxation system is only taking form in the activity of law which can be described as a competition of arguments. Increasingly we feel that the provisions of the Tax Code (i.e. the arguments of the lawmaker) are challenged by the arguments expressed in legal practices, i.e. the interpretations and actions by the taxation authorities, business usages, and, last but not least, authoritative statements, culminating in the strong arguments by the supreme courts. This book will guide the investor and other interested readers to understand the resulting present day Russian taxation system. Together with a general overview of all the most important provisions of the law we deal at a practical level with details affecting investment choices, financing, repatriation of profits and day-to-day financial management issues. The book describes the framework of the taxation system covering the rights and obligations of both taxpayers and taxation authorities. All the taxes are presented and explained: the Corporate Profit Tax, the VAT, Personal Income Tax, Social Tax and others. Extra emphasis is placed on complex matters such as financing choices, leasing, thin-capitalization rules, transfer pricing, permanent establishments and other key issues in taxation. ' This is the third thoroughly expanded, updated and improved edition of the Avenir Guide to Russian Taxes, following the groundbreaking first edition of 2002 and the second updated edition of 2003. This time this book is a project of Avenir — Publications which has signed up Hellevig, Klein & Usov attorneys at law for the producing the contents. The authors of the book are Jon Hellevig and Artem Usov, partners with the law firm. Dr. Alexander Vereshchagin has conducted a thorough research of all the relevant themes and served as the editor for this present edition. We hope that the Avenir Guide to Russian Taxes will continue to enhance the understanding of the Russian taxation laws and serve as an excellent reference guide to practical matters being a real aid in work for directors, controllers, legal counsels and other managers of companies, as well as students and anybody that wants to know how taxes are levied in Russia.

Hellevig Jon. Avenir Guide to Russian Labor Law and HR Administration. This Avenir Guide to Russian Labor Law and HR Administration is a new and updated edition of the initial Avenir Guide to Russian Human Resources (2002). All legal issues in the Guide are discussed with respect to rules in force as of year 2006 taking into consideration also the changes and amendments passed in the Labor Code in 2006. In addition we have considered some of the important administrative regulations and cases from court practice that are able to supplement, modify or even corrupt the legislation, and frequently do so. Understanding the Russian labor law is one of the first challenges for a foreign company developing a presence in This book will guide the foreign legal counsel, HR specialist and executives to understand the living provisions of the present day regulations of the Russian labor law. The Guide gives a detailed and comprehensive survey of such issues as hiring and firing (with a special emphasis on top-managers), work permits, compensations, work protection, liability, labor disputes and so on. In addition to the descriptive part it contains a glossary of Russian legal terms relative to Labor Law and HR paired with their English translations. This is a new second and considerably expended edition of this Avenir Guide At the beginning of the century Russian labor legislation underwent a sweeping reform, and it is now that the legal practices are taking shape. Therefore, the Guide is primarily focused on the Russian Labor Code and gives a comprehensive account of its novelties, merits and demerits found in the regulations of the labor relations in practice. Frequently administrative regulations and court practices supplement, modify or even corrupt the legislation; this Guide goes when needed beyond the Labor Code to address these issues as well.

All is Art: On Social Practices and Interpretation of Feelings - On Democratic Competition. All is art: the art we see as deliberate art, but also science and even our daily being. Art is being, the living in search of an expression for interpretation of feelings. - Interpretations of each individual life are captured in the expressions of language, and through language all the human, all aspects of human life are governed by and reflected in social practices, in people’s life in the commonwealth. The book reveals the connection of art with the evolution of the physical and chemical through biological to the mental and language – all related in the binary struggle between pain and pleasure of which art is a reflection, and a quest to overcome. This binary friction occurs in all aspects of life from the smallest cellular processes to the grand combats between men on earth. In art through language, expressions, the battle between pain and pleasure is brought from the biological organism to the mental plane. – The mental is later than the biological, and language is the latest stage of development; language as of yet underdeveloped, not fit for feelings; language restricting thinking – what can be thought of - and knowledge - what can be known. Language is our challenge. Art is the answer. Art is the great laboratory of mankind; art for art’s sake the only true means for exploring the limits of the unknown, an assault on the frontiers of the unthinkable, the unknowable. Therefore a breakthrough in art, a breakthrough in expression, is a breakthrough in science, and this is the only true progress we can ever hope for.
