The article presents an analysis of the participation of Alash - Orda in the events of the Civil War in1918-1922 through the prism of its relationship with the White Guard movement. The October events of 1917 and the coming to power of the Bolshevik’s were carefully met by Alash people, and the Soviet model of the state did not meet their requirements of national-cultural autonomy. In this context the leaders of Alash-Orda collaborated with the White Guard movement, represented by the Provisional Siberian Government, the Samara Committee of the Members of the All-Russian Constituent Assembly, the Ufa Directory. Alash people together with White Guard detachments took an active part in the military operations against the Bolsheviks. However, none of the White Guard governments never officially recognized the autonomy of the Kazakhs. The Coming to power of All-Russian Government, headed by Kolchak and his ideas about great-power Russia recovery, resulted in the elimination of regional autonomies.

This article gives a succinct account of the history of the creation of the city of Abidjan, the economic capital, its settlement, the production of waste of all kinds and their management. Through this research, essential points can be retained. As early as 1965, the State entrusted the management of waste to the African industrial automobile transport company (SITAF). In the mid-1990s, it terminated SITAF's contract for the benefit of other suppliers. Despite the presence of these, the city of Abidjan is plunged in piles of waste that make the living environment unhealthy and whose odors pollute the air. The reasons are social, economic, technical and financial. The socio-political crises that followed (1999, 2002 and 2011) led to massive displacement of several families. Fleeing the hostilities of the war, they came to take refuge in Abidjan where they think they are safe. Waste has therefore increased throughout the city of Abidjan as a result of these migratory movements. The new companies that have taken over SITAF are disorganized, and among them there are informal ones whose owners are struggling to pay their workers. Companies under the authority of the National Agency for Urban Sanitation (ANASUR) for the management of waste do not possess the appropriate equipment to carry out properly the tasks entrusted to them.

The paper is devoted to the daily life of the city of Irkutsk depicted in the memoirs of its old-timer, geologist Petr Efimovich Lunenk. The revolutionary activity of his father and his study at the so-called "School of Enlightenment", which can rightly be called an element of the regional "cultural nest", are in the center of his attention. Lunenk depicts the revolutionary life in Irkutsk, the initial period of the Civil War, the transition from the festive perception of the revolution to bitterness of 1918-1919. At the same time, he is particularly interested how the intellectual life of the city continued. He comes to a conclusion that despite the rigid polarization of society into political camps, there were "islands of culture" guided by humanism and not affected by the civil confrontation. Lunenk also describes the influence of the party dictate upon the daily life of Irkutsk citizens after the Civil War. His focus of attention is the NEP and his study at Irkutsk University.
