Youth Public Organizations as a Political Actor

Garipov R.F., Igonin D.I.

Abstract

The purpose of this scientific article is to determine the characteristics of youth socio-political organizations that act as an actor in public policy. The authors established the arachaism of the approach that differentiates youth associations according to the territorial criterion. The article analyzes such a significant feature as the influence of youth organizations on political processes, including the processes of making government decisions. Conclusions. In the political science sense, a youth organization as a participant in political relations at the domestic or international levels has certain properties. The authors refer to them as: representing the interests of youth groups; availability of a resource base; participation in political communication; the desire to influence government decisions. But the differences between youth organizations are limited to the scale of influence and to the subject of political relations. The authors state that the presence or absence of resources is not a determining criterion for the recognition of a public organization as an actor of public policy. In this interpretation, the ability of a public association to formulate and express its own interests, and not the implementation of the will of another political actor (for example, a political party or state), acquires significance.

The Legal Doctrine of John William Salmond as the Evolution of the Anglo-American Legal Positivist Tradition

Korzhenyak A.M., Mikhailov A.M.

Abstract

The purpose of the research. This article examines the key ideas underlying the legal teachings of the New Zealand lawyer, civil servant and judge John William Salmond (1862-1924), who, as the authors of this study demonstrate, was one of the first critics of the “command theory of law” of the founder of the school of analytical jurisprudence John Austin (1790-1859). By analyzing and interpreting Salmond’s legal doctrine the authors refute the view, entrenched in Russian jurisprudence, that the central representative of the 20th century neo-positivism Herbert Lionel Adolphus Hart (1907-1992) is considered a pioneer in this field who initiated the criticism of Austin’s legal understanding. The authors advocate the position that Hart’s critique of the command conception and understanding of law in his teachings is largely based on Salmond’s ideas. As a result of this study the authors conclude that there are certain similarities between J.W. Salmond’s idea of “ultimate legal principles” and H.L.A. Hart’s legal doctrine on the “rule of recognition”.

Civilization Transformations of Russia in Foreign Social Philosophy

Malchenkov S.A.

Abstract

Objective. The main goal of this work is to analyze the most important conceptual approaches that were formulated by foreign scientists on the mechanisms and directions of civilizational transformations in Russia. This problem has occupied a significant place in the discourse of the socio-political philosophy of the West for a long time. In recent years, an important contribution to research on this topic has been made by J. Arnason, M. Koivisto, A. Przeworski, M.M. Rahman, A. Segrillo and others. Conclusions: The historical path of Russia, which has gone through many socio-cultural transformations, has long attracted the attention of authors dealing with the problems of local civilizations. The Russian civilization was singled out as an independent one by the classics of this trend O. Spengler and A. Toynbee. A number of foreign authors continue to develop this approach, based on the study of the spiritual sphere of life. At the same time, works in which the civilizational essence of Russia is considered from the standpoint of a geopolitical approach, which considers territory as a key factor in its development, is of great interest. Modern foreign researchers successfully combine these approaches, making a significant contribution to the comprehension of Russian civilization. Originality/value: The work carried out a systematic analysis of the concepts of foreign thinkers related to various scientific trends and applying various methodological approaches to the study of civilizational transformations in Russia. Considerable attention is paid to the possibility of combining the concepts formulated in the framework of the philosophical and geopolitical sciences. Within the framework of this work, the results of the latest research, which have not yet been translated into Russian, have been included in the scientific circulation.

Enlightened Feminism: Ideology, Political Practice

Olifir I.A.

Abstract

This article clarifies the social essence of the ideology of enlightened feminism by analyzing its ideological, historical and political dynamics. The author focuses on the feminism of the first and second waves, which is generally devoid of many excessively bizarre and absurd forms inherent in modern radical feminism. The dialectical nature of the dynamics of feminism is noted - the achievement of specific political goals at the previous stage forced its ideologists to form new tasks, mainly on a more expansive scale and under the influence of a changing situation. At the same time, sometimes, we were talking about measures concerning the fundamental rethinking of the female essence itself, getting rid of patriarchal cultural stereotypes, which prepared the ground for legitimizing the situation characteristic of modern radical feminism, which is talking about the actual social domination of the fairer sex. The author emphasizes the importance of the subjective preferences of the developers of feminist ideas, as well as the fallacy of the key thesis of the theory of feminism about the social conditionality of gender differences. This largely serves as a prerequisite for the radicalization of modern forms of feminism, the inconsistency and paradoxical nature of its practice.

Romanian Students in the Soviet Union (1948-1964)

Bajora A.F.

Abstract

Student exchanges have a long history since the Middle Ages. After the Second World War, they became even more popular, aiming to increase education, tolerance of different cultures, improve language skills and broaden social horizons. Like other socialist countries, Romania intensified student exchanges with the USSR because the country needed specialists and staff for the national economy and the new communist government. At that time, Russian became the first foreign language taught in Romanian schools. The quality of studies in the USSR was good, and later, many graduate students became significant political leaders and held important positions in the state. Starting with the 1960s, Romania gradually began to distance itself from the USSR, eventually leading to a significant reduction in student exchanges. Currently, the international student exchanges between Romania and the Russian Federation are pretty low, and it would be a pity not to continue the established tradition.

Methodological Facets of the Evaluation of Scientific Theories

Yakovleva E.V.

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to consider the main range of issues related to the problem of choice in the framework of the research process. The article deals with the problem of the practice of scientific cognition which involves a continuous process of eliminating or adopting certain theoretical positions, approaches, models. This problem embraces both the need to choose among the already existing approaches one that reflects the studied object more effectively and to the significance of the criteria for evaluating hypotheses formed by the researcher himself. The article is focused on identifying the specifics of plurality of ideas in modern studies. The differences in theoretical approaches to the study of a certain object are indicated. We can talk about various theoretical accents. The same object of real world can be considered from the point of view of its biological, chemical, and physical characteristics (while each of the types of characteristics contains a number of features and properties by which the object is determined). It is difficult to judge what aspect of the object under consideration is essential for cognition and what is unessential. Conclusions. The choice of a priority in direction of research can be determined by utility factors - such as the practical purpose of the study or the initial hypothesis. The individual states (properties) of the object can be determined by a system of scientific measurements or values and, therefore, be predetermined by theoretical and methodological frameworks of various disciplines.

Tsepenshchikov V.A., Kosicin F.G.

Abstract

The article is devoted to the issues of Russian youth education in the conditions of the modern information society development. The purpose of the study is to analyze the communicative and digital technologies that have a destructive impact on the individual in the context of the development of the project “non-figurative education” in Russia. The article substantiates the position that “non-figurative education” is aimed at deanthropologization, which is designed to revise the ideals of humanism, subject the personality to spiritual and moral degradation, by primitivizing the value bases and orientations of the individual. Conclusions. Today, mankind as a specific way of existence is turning into a transforming force on a planetary scale. Understanding of a person in this way reveals the urgent need for interdisciplinary research focused both on the analysis of existing socio-humanitarian theories of human existence, and the search for new forms of his interaction with the multitude of all structures in reality.

Liang Y., Zhang X.

Abstract

In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is increasingly challenging to maintain openness and cooperation in the field of education in various countries. However, the changes brought about by the pandemic provide us with opportunities to explore new ways of international cooperation in education, help reform the way of international exchange and cooperation, and find ways to make international cooperation ready for risks. In response to the volatility of the situation, educational institutions in the countries along the Belt and Road initiative should strengthen mutual understanding, anticipate the upcoming changes and adapt to the quickly changing environment, guided by the concept of “Community with shared future for mankind”. In addition, it is essentially important to cooperate on creation of an open, equal and mutually beneficial Belt and Road educational community. The creation of the Belt and Road educational community meets the current needs of cooperation in the field of international education. It possesses advanced scientific ideas, relies on the existing mechanisms of cooperation, promotes innovation and modernization of cooperation methods, reveals new models of cooperation and integrates educational resources for countries located along the Belt and Road Initiative.

Insight on China’s International Higher Education Cooperation in the Context of us New Immigration Policy Toward International Students

Junhong Y., Zhang X.

Abstract

This study explores how China seek international cooperation opportunities in higher education. Due to the change of U.S. new immigration policy toward international students, it is more difficult for Chinese students in some STEM fields to have further study in the United States. Besides, the greatly increased tuition fees, as well as the worry about personal safety distract Chinese students’ willingness to study in the United States. Chinese colleges and universities take this opportunity to actively explore high-quality overseas higher education resources in Belt and Road countries to meet the great needs of Chinese students’ studying abroad. At the same time, China speeds up the process of internationalization of higher education by recruiting scholars all over the world and initiating research and training projects specialized in STEM fields with top universities in the world. Furthermore, Chinese universities strive to contribute intellectual support in global governance and work together with universities from the SCO member States under the framework of SCO University to provide more options for Chinese students to receive high quality international education and training as well.
