Croydon :
Palgrave Macmillan, 2015.
Under the general editorship: D. Lane, V. Samokhvalov
Considering the Eurasian project from a variety of historical, philosophical, political, economic and geopolitical perspectives, this volume traces the birth, evoluation and rebirth of Eurasian regionalism. It examines the historical and philosophical background of Eurasia and adresses the discursive construction of the Eurasian concept in the contemprorary period, contrasring and comparing it with the formation of the European Union.
Looking afresh at the politics and economics of Eurasian integration in a global context, this book offers a highly assesment of the region's presence in the ideological agendas and nation-building programmes of its member states - Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus - and its geostrategic relevance in world politics.

The paper touches on original propositions of ‘Eurasianism’ as a theory of certain historic modality, and argues that it has to be taken more seriously than in its merely discursive aspect if it is to be related to current political and economic developments. It particularly focuses on Russia being a historical core of Eurasian world after ...

In this special issue, we bring together the post-colonial and post-socialist conditions of the post-Soviet space and the Indian subcontinent through the study of human–nature relationships. Not only are these two regions entangled through the Eurasian geography, but they also both represent hybrid modernization trajectories characterized by varying socio-political responses to Western modernity and the ...

It hypothesizes that building the GEP could become an important element of a strategy for transforming the world order, creating opportunities for Russia and its partners to strengthen global positions. The key actors of the GEP, ...

The armed confrontation between the Russian Federation and the collective West requires focusing its attention and resources on Ukraine. Under extreme circumstances, it is more difficult for Russia to expand or even maintain its position in other neighboring countries.
Moscow has lost its position as the main mediator in the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict. Its peacekeeping mission in ...

This article is devoted to the phenomenon of intrinsic motivation, to understand which two models are proposed. We study how positive/negative intrinsic motivation to work (experienced utility) affects worker's individual labour supply (model I) and the amount of effort they exert (model II). In model I, we use intrinsic motivation to explain the positive/negative slope ...

Welzel's theory and provides a microfoundation for the adaptation of subjective values to the objective importances of the survival factors and the structure of the labour markets from the perspective of evolutionary ...

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 ...

The rock art of the Minusinsk Basin has a long academic history; however, it still brings about new
fascinating discoveries. Some petroglyphs of the Tesin period show people sitting cross-legged on the floor
in the so-called Oriental fashion. These images have not yet received special scientific attention. Such images
are most often single; they are to be found ...

Research of the impact of kin alloparenting on reproduction mainly focuses on mother’s parents and parents-in-law. The impact on fertility of extended families and the alloparental help with childcare they can provide has received much less attention. Moreover, there is an important lacuna in the existing studies of this problem, as it is mostly approached ...

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 = ...

The notion of “political accommodation” applied to the theory and practice of managing cultural diversity could enrich the Russian academic dictionary. Liberal democratic states invented specific mechanisms for political accommodation of cultural differences. Thanks to these mechanisms, the part of the population of a democratic state that is not ready to dissolve into the ethnocultural ...

Migrant residential concentration areas have been a significant focus for research, but academic attention has primarily centered on their effects rather than how they form. There is some research considering the discrete factors of such areas’ emergence, but these factors are rarely fused into a comprehensive explanation with a description of specific mechanisms in operation. ...

Recent global challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the full-scale war in Ukraine, and rising trade barriers, appear to have prompted a critical reassessment of globalisation. This shift suggests a move away from neoliberal economic integration toward security-driven strategies and selective alliances (e.g., "friend-shoring") to address vulnerabilities reportedly exposed by authoritarian regimes. While this reorientation may ...
