Чужак на фронтире (или фронтир как место производства и обитания Чужака)
Новое литературное обозрение. 2025. № 3(193). С. 113–125.
The article discusses ‘frontier’ as a concept and as a social phenomenon. The definition of ‘frontier’ distinguishes it from ‘border’, highlights its connection with social change (in its spatial dimension), and underlines its dynamic character and, consequently — its uncertainty. The stranger (pioneer, marginal man, frontiersman) is the driver of the frontier as a special social form. Emerging from classical studies of the frontier, it appears as a peculiar ‘cultural pattern/invariant’, marked by the paradoxical consolidation of cultural conflict.

The prevailing approach in green innovation research merges adoption and generation into a single measurement, and while traditional innovation studies indicate that these modes can have dissimilar antecedents, this distinction remains unexplored for green innovation. Addressing this gap, this study draws on institutional theory to examine which specific institutional actors: state authorities (environmental tax), corporate ...

В предлагаемых заметках исследуется субъективный опыт индивида, пересекающего границу (например, государственную); этот опыт не поддается объективно-семиотическому описанию и требует учета его миметических факторов - актов уподобления и подражания, в итоге которых образуется коллективная (например, национальная) идентичность. Действие этих факторов прослеживается в следующих аспектах: образование связного пространства из независимых друг от друга мест, зеркальная симметрия «нашего» ...
