Immunity to Chaos: How Personal Resources Help Us Cope with the Challenges of a Turbulent World
International conflicts, crises and digital overload—the modern world puts our minds to the test every day. Traditional psychology often focuses on the consequences: anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic disorders. But what if we looked at the problem differently—through the lens of the resources that prevent us from breaking down? Psychological immunity is precisely this set of resources. Alena Zolotareva and her group, Psychological Immunity as a Resource for Positive Functioning, are developing an integrative model of this phenomenon, adapting diagnostic tools and preparing for large-scale empirical research. Why do psychologists need to collaborate with medical professionals, and how could their research transform preventive care in clinics and corporations?

‘Balkan Hospitality Opens Doors: Studying Dialects on the Verge of Extinction
You cannot study spoken dialects from books. Instead, you need to go to a village, seek out its elders, and earn the trust of local residents before you can record hours of spontaneous stories. This is how Natalia Muravleva, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, conducts her research. Her internship in Serbia continued her long-standing study of dialects spoken by Macedonian settlers. In this interview, she discusses how diaspora cultural centres help researchers reach informants, why native speakers need to be interviewed only in their own language (otherwise, as she puts it, they may 'break'), and how a single field season helped her finalise her monograph. She also shares warm memories of autumn in Belgrade and of colleagues with whom grammar can be discussed in three languages at once.

Учиться, чтобы остаться: африканская элита во Франции

С. 233–249.
Demintseva E.

There are a lot of Africans who, after graduating from European universities, face a choice: either to return to their countries of origin or stay in Europe (or go to the USA, Canada, Australia). Not infrequently, Africans decide to stay. Having spent sev- eral years in a European country, they no longer find acceptable norms and attitudes prevalent on their continent — in politics, economy, or everyday life. Yet the question remains: why the parents of these African students, having graduated from Europe- an universities in the middle of the 20th century, were willing to come back to Africa, whereas their children consider Europe the only place where they and their offspring can live? What forces young Africans to make such a choice? The author concludes that the years spent in Europe (where they saw a different world), and miserable poli- tics and economy in their countries of origin both determine Africans’ choice.

Творение из ничего: дискуссии о федерализации в Республике Чад
Захаров А. А., Issaev L., Полис. Политические исследования 2026 № 4 С. 152–169
В статье анализируется вопрос о том, почему Республика Чад, вопреки предрасположенности к федеративному устройству – в силу своей расовой, языковой, этнической и религиозной разобщенности, - до сих пор остается унитарным государством. Соответственно, целью исследования выступает выявление причин, которые мешают этой африканской стране задействовать потенциал федерализма, позволяющий – по меньшей мере, теоретически, - умиротворять и гармонизировать ...

Examples of soft power, such as Nigeria’s Nollywood, athletic successes in Kenya, Rwanda’s commercial diplomacy, and South Africa’s liberal constitution, are all reasserting African agency and shaping more positive understandings of the continent.
