Rzhavchino - Ржавчино

Postcards from Rzhavchino

Rzhavchino is a provincial town with big estimated potential. Its residents are simple and honest people. They while away hardships of life under harsh conditions but with their heads up high. The town is famous for its hospitality, hardworking labor force and strong executive managers.

Depriving themselves of sleep and food, fathers and grandfathers had built up a stable foundation for the current economic and scientific well-being of the town. Comradely cooperation and mutual help were key to successful development of a just and free community of Rzhavchino. Workers can be proud of their highly developed industry, extensive mechanized agriculture, achievements in science and culture.

In the conditions of zero unemployment level, when the social pattern guarantees the right to work and rest, fair salary, affordable housing, free education and healthcare, a democratic society influences formation of needs and dignifies them. Steady growth of consuming power and consumer and industrial goods sales are important indicators of well-being. Full satisfaction of physical and spiritual needs of society is perceived as top priority goal of production.

In a democratic society characterized by harmonic combination of scientific and technological progress with benefits of a civil society, science is turning into a direct productive force and becomes an essential tool for finding the best way of solving social and economic tasks in line with high standards of European values.

Heroic work of steelmakers, people who deal with fire, is valued particularly high. Steelmakers look like sorcerers when they stand by electric smelters of integrated iron and steel plant and closely watch how their fantastic concoction boils in a thousand degrees hot hell. Day and night steelmakers make steel. How people will work tomorrow and stable development of the region depend on them. Rzhavchino has been long famed for its labor dynasties when son comes to replace his father at his work place and grandson takes up operation of machines that his grandfather used to operate. In one of such families a person was born whose destiny was to go down in history for his uncompromisingly bold innovativeness in the field of experimental sociology and economics. It is impossible to imagine works of the Institute for Social Research of Rzhavchino without practical application. Here the path from fundamental research to practice is minimized. In charge of this majestic sanctuary of science is Professor Nichuvko I.R. His personal contribution into the advancement of science cannot be overestimated. Under Nichuvko’s thoughtful guidance new main trends and opportunities for accelerated development of productive forces are being discovered and society of future is being created. Supremacy of law and respect for human rights are of strategic priority and a moral necessity of such society.
