future of the past

You should not offend Time Vladimir Vysotsky The mysterious substance of Time has captured the imaginations of people since ancient times, but the essence of Time still eludes final understanding. Our Past is rich and varied, and in this issue we have tried to collect opinions about what future it has. What should we do so that tomorrow we won’t be painfully ashamed of the way we treat our ‘yesterday’? The result is a large collection of theoretical articles written by a wide range of authors. Today, we particularly cherish certain moments of the past. The memories of the times when paper architecture flourished in the USSR are to be brought back at the conceptual competition held by the RAACS and MArchI. Heritage sites of different times became the heroes of this issue of PB. The coverage of space and geography is wide: the Russian North and Crimea, Moscow and St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk and Irkutsk, China, Japan, Armenia and Jordan. The issue of the future for the past is an issue of humanity. We continue our series on a highly topical theme of EDUCATION with an article about the university city of Tomsk. And the OBJECT OF THE ISSUE is devoted to the practical implementation of the topic of education in a wonderful school in Novokuznetsk.
