The 'Second Shift' Is Not Why Women Avoid News
Women are more likely than men to avoid political and economic news, but the reasons for this behaviour are linked less to structural inequality or family-related stress than to personal attitudes and the emotional perception of news content. This conclusion was reached by HSE researchers after analysing data from a large-scale survey of more than 10,000 residents across 61 regions of Russia. The study findings have been published in Woman in Russian Society.

The Lost Victory

Српска политичка мисао. 2016. Vol. 23. No. 51. P. 31–47.
Kashnikov B.

The author of this paper presents the dilemmas over the meaning of victory in contemporary wars, arguing that wars such as "war on terror", "humanitarian intervention" and especially "just war" seem to be unwinnable. In the first part of the paper the author presents the normative meaning of the term "victory" which goes beyond the military success in war, encompassing also virtuous motives, efforts and goals. In the second chapter the author considers the transformation of the contemporary war as a form of transformation of political sovereignty. The decline of victory, which is a subject of the third chapter, is in close relation with the transformation of the contemporary war due to the emergence of unwinnable wars. Finally, in the fourth chapter, the author is setting the relation between the meaning of victory and the so called "just war theory", and concluding that it is not possible to win the "just war".

В поисках истоков внешнеполитического поведения России
Krasnyak O., Вестник Санкт-Петербургского университета. Международные отношения 2025 Т. 18 № 4 С. 493–498
Понимание российского внешнеполитического поведения вновь обретает осо-бую значимость не только в рамках конфликта на Украине и взаимоотношений со странами мирового большинства и меньшинства, но и в контексте изменяющегося мироустройства. Прежняя глобалистская модель стремительно сходит с авансце-ны международных отношений, возвращая, по сути, мир к структурным базовым настройкам соперничества между несколькими крупными державами. Россия яв-ляется одной из ...

Опыт киноглаза: исследование кинематографической автономии
Поликарпова Д. А., М.: Новое литературное обозрение, 2025.
Может ли кино быть субъектом, а не объектом особой чувственности? В своей книге Дарина Поликарпова утверждает, что да; более того, идея эта не нова и восходит к опытам Дзиги Вертова, Жана Эпштейна и других ранних практиков и теоретиков кино. Увлекшееся в последние десятилетия антропоцентрическими подходами, киноведение перестало учитывать уникальную природу кинематографа, сводя его к тексту, ...

Redistricting is an important tool of political struggle, distinguished by several features that set it apart from other methods of creating a non-competitive electoral advantage: secrecy and non-provocativeness. These characteristics have led to significant scholarly attention, primarily focused on the political consequences of redistricting. However, the administrative and legal aspects of redistricting remain less studied, which may limit ...

Classification Approach to Mapping Cultural Differences: An Illustration Using Survey Data from 60 Russian Regions
Nastina E., Sokolov B., / Series OSF "SocArXiv". 2025.
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 ...

Cross-Nationally, Non-Probability Web Surveys Demonstrate Poorer DemographicCoverage and Yield More Liberal Estimates of Public Opinion than F2F Surveys

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 ...
