Will the global crisis lead to global transformations? The coming epoch of new coalitions
Journal of Globalization Studies. 2010. Vol. 1. No. 2. P. 166–183.
This article presents possible answers, and their respective probabilities, to the question, ‘What are the consequences of the present global crisis in the proximate future of the World System?’ It also attempts to describe the basic characteristics of the forthcoming ‘Epoch of New Coalitions’ and to forecast certain future conditions. Among the problems analyzed in this paper are the following: What does the weakening of the economic role of the USA as the World System centre mean? Will there be a leader in the future World System? Will the deficit of global governance and world fragmentation continue to worsen? How can national sovereignty be transformed?

Шмитт К., М.: Ад Маргинем Пресс, 2026.
В этом тексте немецкий философ, правовед и политический теоретик Карл Шмитт (1888–1985) предстает в непривычном амплуа. Книга «Гамлет или Гекуба» возникла из семинара, организованного для небольшого круга учеников, и увидела свет в 1956 году. Шмитт погружается в эпоху Шекспира, анализируя политическую обстановку елизаветинской Англии и фигуру короля Якова I Стюарта, чтобы разгадать тайну самого странного и нетипичного мстителя в мировой литературе, павшего жертвой собственной нерешительности. В рассуждение о гамлетовской ...

We argue that a classification-based approach to measuring cultural differences across countries or subnational regions is a promising complement, and sometimes an alternative, to the widely used dimensional method in cross-cultural research. The latter summarises cultural variation using continuous dimensions, for example, Hofstede’s famous individualism-collectivism dimension. However, this approach relies on strong parametric assumptions, which are ...

Non-probability web surveys offer several advantages over face-to-face (F2F) interviews—they are cheaper, faster, more accessible, and reduce interviewer effects and desirability bias. As such, they are increasingly popular in both academic and commercial research. However, they often yield demographically biased samples, raising concerns about the accuracy of the resulting public opinion estimates. Most studies on ...

Для понимания какого-либо качества, как правило, выбирается, некоторая подходящая для его оценки шкала (скажем, от 1 до 5), и, согласно этой шкале, качеству присваиваются одна или несколько оценок. Эти оценки затем преобразуются в одну, “усредненную”, оценку; например, выбирается среднее арифметическое. Так, несданная сессия с тремя баллами 5, 2 и 5 “характеризуется’’ средней оценкой хорошо: (5+2+5)/3 = ...
