Dialogue and the New Cosmopolitanism. Conversations with Edward Demenchonok

L. : Lexington Books, 2023.

As has often been observed, the basic ideas or guiding principles of politics are today in disarray. To a considerable extent, this fact is due to an ongoing “paradigm shift,” that is, a shift from the modern accent on egocentrism and
state-centrism to a dawning perspective called “postmodernity” or postindividualism. Reflection on this shift is the overall theme of the present study, discussed from a variety of angles and viewpoints. Under the influence of chauvinistic populism and elitist neo-liberalism our world tends to resemble a Hobbesian “state of nature” and relentless “war of all against all.” The presence of militarized hegemonies coupled with the danger of nuclear proliferation threatens the future of global humanity. Thus, we seem to have entered or are pushed into a new historical period marked by new challenges and horizons.

Rationality, Harmony, and Responsibility

Tulchinskii G. L., , in: Dialogue and the New Cosmopolitanism. Conversations with Edward Demenchonok.: L.: Lexington Books, 2023. P. 277–298.

Multiculturalism and tolerance in action are constantly discussed within the framework of civic identity (manifestation of personal self-determination), without which trust is impossible – not one that rallies along the ethnic-clan principle but rather “builds bridges” between representatives of different communities of a specific civil society. Moreover, since each culture, expressing a certain social experience, ...

Exploitation in rent systems: relational inequality between and within organizations

Shams S., International Review of Sociology 2026 Vol. 36 No. 1 P. 262–289

With minor exceptions, much of the recent research shows the decline in working conditions that accompanies the demise of promotion trajectories, predictable pay, and generally retentive labor practices that were a ...

Borisenko M., Вестник Пермского университета. Серия: Политология 2024 Т. 18 № 4 С. 92–101

Existing literature on multi-level governance suggests that interactions between actors at different levels lead to successful, more efficient implementation of policies. Using the example of the failed military reform of 2000-2003 in Germany, we show that multi-level governance can complicate the implementation of reforms. Particular attention is paid to how actors at the supranational and ...
