Maxim Zhiganov has been exploring different aspects of sound for many years—first in relation to his native Perm and then on a broader, global scale. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, he talks about sound maps, the special issue of the journal Logos, and why it is important to make the familiar less clear and obvious.

At HSE University–St Petersburg, Experts Discuss How AI Changes Tourist Routes and Cultural Heritage
Neural networks are no longer simple travel assistants; now they decide what to include on the route and what to skip. Artificial intelligence changes how people perceive a place and shapes the image of tourist centres. At the II International Scientific and Practical Conference ’Information Technologies in the Preservation and Promotion of Cultural Heritage,’ researchers discussed who controls algorithmic solutions and in what ways, and whether authentic traditions get lost in them.

The politics of polarisation in Venezuela: autocracy, populism and the collapse of the petrostate
Pobedonostsev A., Third World Quarterly 2026 P. 1–20
Venezuela is widely regarded as one of the most politically divided nations in Latin America. However, the mechanisms through which political polarisation facilitated the emergence of authoritarian rule under Hugo Chávez and later Nicolás Maduro remain insufficiently specified. This article develops an account of polarisation-driven autocratisation in Venezuela and examines how elite and mass polarisation ...

China’s strategic narrative on refugee protection: selective adoption, contestation and appropriation of the dominant Western-centric interpretations

Through a qualitative analysis of 54 statements delivered by Chinese diplomats at the United Nations between 2000 and 2024, it identifies core narrative elements, such as problem definition, causal attribution, actor positioning and proposed solutions, and connections between them. The findings show that China problematises refugee ...

Environmental issues and green ideology have become an increasingly significant factor of international relations in recent decades. Many researchers tend to focus on the ethical side of environmentalism, paying little attention to its aesthetic component. It is possible to fill this epistemic lacuna with the help of recent aesthetic and visual turn in IR. Applying the concept of “scopic ...

Tikhonova N. E., Дудин И. В., Вестник Российского университета дружбы народов. Серия: Социология 2026 Т. 26 № 3 С. 830–846
На данных общероссийского опроса, проведенного Институтом социологии ФНИСЦ РАН в октябре 2025 года (N = 2000), показано, что реальная адаптированность к внешним условиям и объективные показатели адаптированности к ним - разные феномены. Объективные индикаторы адаптированности обладают меньшим эвристическим потенциалом, чем те, которые учитывают восприятие человеком соотношения своих потребностей и возможностей их удовлетворения. Адаптационный потенциал россиян ...

Household environmental management practices, community engagement, and self-reported malaria incidence in urban and rural communities of Malawi
Lungu M. M., Davitadze A., Frontiers in Public Health 2026 Vol. 14 Article 1919768
Malaria control in Malawi relies primarily on long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS), but transmission remains heterogeneous across districts. Previous research indicates that community-based environmental management strategies, such as routine drainage maintenance, vegetation removal, and effective household waste disposal, may reduce environmental conditions conducive to malaria vector proliferation. This study investigated the ...

Стратегии голосования в многомандатных округах на муниципальных выборах в России: многомерность электоральных предпочтений и непостоянство «эффекта метлы»
Костромин В. В., Вестник Пермского университета. Серия: Политология 2026 Т. 20 № 3 С. 37–47
The "sweep effect", the most well-known consequence of the multiple non-transferable vote system, is inconsistent. This may be related to the broad voting opportunities provided by the electoral system, which facilitate the formation of diverse voting strategies. In this study, these strategies are classified based on the prevailing models of candidate selection by voters and ...

Becoming (In)tolerant: Vicissitudes of a Political Term in Russia, 2000–2020
Sarkisyan N., Russian Politics 2022 Vol. 7 No. 4 P. 581–608
This article explores the role of the term “tolerance” in Russian presidential discourse, 2000-2020. The word became de-politicized (used equally in liberal and in conservative contexts), functioning as a buzzword and as a symbol. As a buzzword, it stood “for all good things” and denoted the positive dynamics in Russia’s nationalities and foreign policies; as ...

Producing Kartinka: Street-Level Bureaucracy and Implementation of Russia’s Tolerance Policy in St Petersburg
Саркисян Н. М., Nationalities Papers: The Journal of Nationalism and Ethnicity 2023 Vol. 51 No. 2 P. 425–445
In 2006, a “tolerance policy” was launched in St. Petersburg to address the growing xenophobia and the need to integrate labor migrants. Applying a bottom–up perspective, this study finds that this policy was symbolic – aimed at changing public attitudes, not at providing material outcomes. The direct implementers (the street-level bureaucracy), operating under governmental constraints, ...

This paper examines the implications of George Herbert Mead’s conception of political institutions in the context of the problem of social change.

The article continues the discussion of Grigory Yudin’s book 'Public Opinion'. The review considers Yudin’s arguments on the “plebiscitarian bias” in opinion-poll technology, on the linkages between opinion-polls, Rousseauist tradition and the “plebiscitarian model”, and on Gallup’s, Schumpeter’s, and Weber’s contributions to plebiscitarism. In the context of the proposed conceptual model, controversial issues in the interpretation of Weber’s and ...

Vanishing Vanguard: Decline of Leadership in Revolutionary Mass Mobilization since the 19th Century
Ustyuzhanin V., Zinkina J. V., Korotayev A., / Series "SocArXiv". 2026.
“Leaderlessness” is widely held to be a defining feature of contemporary mass mobilization, yet the claim rests on a handful of recent cases. We offer the first systematic cross-national analysis of this phenomenon from 1791 to 2019. We show that the absence of leadership is real but older and more modest than claimed: the share ...

Revolutions or campaigns? Tearing down the Berlin Wall in the study of mass mobilization
Korotayev A., Guseinov R., Ustyuzhanin V., Political Studies Review 2026 P. 1–22
In recent years, a kind of “Berlin Wall” has emerged between the study of “revolutions” and “maximalist campaigns.” Although scholars in these two traditions analyze closely related phenomena, they use different terminology, bodies of literature, and empirical conventions. We argue that this separation is analytically costly and prevents fruitful dialogue. On one hand, this leads ...
