RBG-Azimuth (GDC-Azimuth') was a quarterly Ukrainian bilingual ( Russophone and Ukrainophone) science fiction magazine, published since 2006. [1] Its stories were written in the Russian language by authors living around the world. This included authors from Ukraine, [2] Russia, [3] Belarus, Lithuania, [4] the United States, [5] and others. The magazine name is an abbreviation that means “guidelines for damage control” in Russian “Руководство по Борьбе за Живучесть" (РБЖ).
RBG-Azimuth exclusively published one type of material - short stories. Each issue contained 10-13 stories. It claimed to revive traditions of the classic science fiction of the 1970-1980s (like Isaac Asimov, Clifford Simak, Robert Sheckley, Boris and Arkady Strugatsky). Its aim was to publish stories that help people live a better life. Since 2010 RBG-Azimuth and Hanna Concern Publishing issued books with set of the best sci-fi stories of the year. [6] [7]
The magazine was nominated on Eurocon from Ukraine as the Best Magazine in 2010 [8] and 2011 [9] years. One of the authors is Nika Rakitina, [10][ who?] who had received the ESFS encouragement award (Belarus) in Eurocon-2008. [11] [12][ clarification needed]
