Горизонты империи
Новое литературное обозрение. 2025. № 3. С. 97–112.
The article examines approaches to the concept
“empire” in theoretical sociology. The specificity of
any empire is the size of the space it occupies, but
this space is not enclosed within firm, established
boundaries, as is the territory of the neighboring sta -
tes. Even if empires are included in systems of interstate
relations, the ideologies of their ruling groups
entail limitless expansion. This has occurred many
times in history and can be described by applying
the phenomenological category of the “horizon”.
The concept of a “horizon” implies that there are
limit s to vision and action. At the same time, it re -
presents an infinite “and so on” in planning actions
and communication. This infinity remains a constant
state, regardless of political successes and failures.
