Политика в отношении школьного выбора в постсоветских странах: опыт построения индекса
Журнал исследований социальной политики. 2024. Т. 22. № 2. С. 209–224.
The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of national educational policies in the field of school choice in the countries of the former Soviet Union. The aim of the study is to analyze the transformation of education policy after the collapse of the USSR – the transition from the unified Soviet system to sovereign national models of education management. It proposes a new approach to understanding school choice, taking into account legally established norms that ensure the individualization of students’ educational trajectories and support the possibility of exercising choice. The comparative analysis of the normative regulation of school choice is carried out using the indexing method based on the developed set of indicators characterizing the variability and centralization of the mechanisms of normative regulation of school choice. The study shows that all post-Soviet countries have taken steps towards the formation and implementation of school choice mechanisms. In addition to the traditional consideration of 'ratings,' the paper focuses on the analysis of the combination of choice opportunities with the nature of their regulation at different levels, which allows for a fuller assessment of the complexity and multifaceted nature of the transformation processes. In particular, it is emphasized that although documented regulation and the provision of choice are widely proclaimed, the actual implementation and effectiveness of these mechanisms is often limited by local socio-cultural, economic, and geopolitical conditions.

This article offers reflections on A.V. Shchipkov’s
book Unfinished Nazism: Genesis, Transformations, and Related

Nazism. Previously, drawing connections between liberalism
and fascism was an intellectual move typically confined to leftist
academic circles. However, the author emphasizes that this
particular interpretation of the connection between ...

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 ...

Complexity is widely acknowledged as a foundational and pivotal concept in Big History, offering a unifying lens through which to examine the emergence and development of systems—from particles and galaxies to life, civilizations, and beyond.

Governance is rapidly digitising, yet how citizens’ emotions towards algorithmic policy decision-making relate to their trust in governance institutions remains understudied. Drawing on the affect-as-information model, we argue that emotions constitute a distinct input into institutional trust judgements, operating both directly and by conditioning the weight of cognitive evaluations. We test this argument with a ...
