The catastrophic landslide in Sochi and the results of large-scale construction. A essay.
"In days of doubt, in days of painful thoughts about the fate of my homeland, you alone are my pillar and support, oh great, mighty, truthful and free Russian language! If it were not for you, how not to fall into despair at the sight of everything that is happening at home? But one cannot believe that such a language it's a gift for not the great people! " (Ivan Turgenev. Russian language (Poem in prose)). [unofficial translation]
The catastrophic landslide in Sochi raises the question of the possible consequences of a policy of scaling up construction, a policy that is being actively pursued at the highest level.
Of course, this policy accompanied by a declaration of good goals - for the first time in history there is a hope (1) to solve the housing problem, (2) to relocate people from dilapidated housing ...
Maybe - besides - some (but not all) construction companies will receive large incomes ... Some (other) construction companies will not be involved in large incomes ...
In order to expand the scale of construction, local regional and city authorities must provide private construction firms with cheap land plots.
Where can they get cheap land plots in cities?
Quite an interesting question.
Of course, we will not recall some bright terrible events, as well as those assumptions and statements that accompany these events ...
There are processes that are less noticeable. If green spaces, parks, green areas, urban forests are used to expand the scale of construction, then this will inevitably lead to the most negative consequences in the future.
We recently heard about demolition plans in one of the private sector cities for new construction ...
In general, the question arises about the results of the creation of huge overpopulated megacities ...
Some people fear the creation of a new type of urban ghettos, while others say that they are already feel the emergence of such ghettos.
Will huge megacities spur the development of pandemics?
At this point of reasoning, we come to the problem of combating coronavirus.
The fight against coronavirus is going along one line, and the development of domestic and international tourism, the efforts in the field of labor migration, along the other line.
"We won 't have vaccines soon [in the near future]..." (Meeting on the sanitary-epidemiological situation in the Russian Federation. April 20, 2020). [unofficial translation]
"In mid-June 2021 (in connection with June 12, 2021), an award was handed for the creation of the world's first vaccine. There are only a few names on the list of awardees." (MMСCXXIV. Vaccine awards and some results. An essay on the history of the world's first vaccine. - June 19, 2021.).
Many Russial citizens were born during the Soviet era and were vaccinated when they were children. The vaccine was given once in a lifetime and provided lifelong protection against disease. For such citizens, the concept of "revaccination" is not quite familiar ... Revaccination - every half a year ...
Many events in the field of expanding construction, developing tourism, fighting the coronavirus cause some citizens, to use the words of Ivan Turgenev, "painful thoughts."
But there is also hope - for the Russian language, for people who are deeply versed in linguistics, in language studies ...
It remains to adhere to the belief that such (Russian) language is given to those who can develop and implement the correct urban planning policy, correctly organize the development of vaccines, correctly understand how to organize recreation and tourism during a pandemic ...
