CIVIL SOCIETY: TO THE QUESTION OF ITS SOURCE

There are a huge number of articles and monographs devoted to the civil society. Researches have collected the bulk of empirical data, formulated the main theoretical issues and criterion of its maturity. Nevertheless in the majority of the publications the civil society is depicted as static phenomenon, not as a process, which is “coming-to-being”. This explains the overwhelming approach of descriptive methods in the theory of civil society. But the living essence of this phenomenon that pulsates in the continuing springing up and renewal is out of due regard.

Methodological approach that caused this article consists in division of the whole process of civil society development into two moments: the moment of “Ceasing-to-be” and moment of “Coming-to-be”, the moment of static and the moment of dynamic. Normal science deals with static moment of subject because it can be descripted, quantitatively analyzed, formalized and traced in tendencies. The moment of “Coming-to-be” cannot be expressed by formal methods. Investigator here faces with the living process not static post-festum phenomenon. Using method of analogy authors suggest a hypothesis that contemporary type of civil society represents not a particular substructure of society but peculiar “soil structure” so called “social mycelium” that gives birth to number of social institutions and organizations and fertilizes social system with new opportunities. Such kind of approach allows us to mentally submerge into the depth of social reality, to observe the “underwater currents” that bring about visible, fixed and qualitatively evaluated civil society phenomena.

Authors distinguish three historical types of civil society: 1) ancient type; 2) modern type and 3) contemporary postmodern type. All types are different in terms of their social sources, sets of values and historic consequences and prospects. At the same time they all have one invariant element, so called “DNA of civil society”, which causes the consequences and contradictions that brings about its development.

Key words: civil society, institutionalism, personal public autonomy.

DIGITALIZATION OF THE STATE AND NATIONAL SECURITY

The emergence of new information technologies today provides the government with new opportunities to optimize interaction processes, which include a set of important factors that have a positive impact on Russia's progressive development. The need to digitalize the socio-economic and socio-political spheres of Russian society today is beyond doubt, since this increases the country's global competitiveness on world markets.

At the same time, global digitalization entails the actualization of new challenges and threats to the national security of the state, making national segments of the economy more vulnerable, which may further lead to pressure from foreign actors pursuing their own economic or political interests. Hence the need to develop and implement effective measures to ensure State cybersecurity as soon as possible.

It is also important to explore the foundations of the digitalization of the state and national security in the context of the world humanities of the XXI century.

The authors of the article come to the conclusion that the importance for society of solving the problems of state digitalization and national security in political, economic and social aspects is supplemented by the need to include fundamental scientific developments in the practice of life support of the people.

Key words: digitalization of the state, national security, financial system, socio-economic spheres of the state, socio-political spheres of the state, threats to the national security, national projects.

THE MAIN POLITICAL TOOLS OF RUSSIAN STATE EXPORT SUPPORT

The foreign economic policy of Russia as an instrument of the country's geopolitical participation in the world economy is focused on ensuring the economic feasibility and effectiveness of economic interaction between subjects of foreign economic activity. It is aimed not only at realizing national political and socio-economic interests, but also at ensuring national security. Thereby, the Russian government pays attention to ensure that the implementation of the state export support policy is harmoniously integrated into the national socio-economic policy.

The article analyzes modern tools of state export support, identifies their features and impact on improving the competitiveness of national companies in the world market, and explores new approaches of the state in this area. The article’s author believes that the tools used to support Russian exports are very effective, but the export potential of the chemical industry, agriculture and engineering products should be developed. The increase in the physical volume of deliveries and the strengthening of the ruble appear today, according to the author, as the most important factors in the growth of Russian exports.

Key words: economy, foreign economic policy, Russian export, financial and non-financial support instruments, Russia.

SPECIFICS OF INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF LOBBYING IN DEMOCRATIC REGIMES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF GERMANY AND THE UNITED STATES)

Оver the past 50 years, lobbying in the United States and Germany has experienced a significant boom, and one might assume that the processes in these States are looking more and more similar. Lobbyists have become highly professional and have mastered many places and levels of political power. Direct representation of companies or other interested parties co-exists with an Association representation in both Washington and Berlin. However, the speed of proposals, the fragmentation of public media, the electoral structure, and the transparency of political negotiations create differences in the US and Germany. In this regard, the purpose of the study is to study the functioning of the Institute of lobbying in Germany and the United States. The methodological basis of the study was a systematic approach using institutional and comparative research methods. The results of the study were an understanding of differences in lobbying styles: the often aggressive propaganda approach in the US and more consensus-oriented information lobbying in Germany.

Key words: politics, political decisions, state, lobbying, institutions, democratic regime, associations, interest groups.

INFORMATION AND PROPAGANDA SUPPORT OF THE SPACE RIVALRY BETWEEN THE USSR AND THE USA (BASED ON THE MATERIALS OF DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN PUBLICATIONS)

The article makes an attempt to analyse some features of the information and propaganda support of the rivalry of the two superpowers USSR and USA in the field of space in 1950-1960-ies, marked in history as the period of the escalation of the Cold War, nuclear arms race and international tension that began biased coverage and rewriting of the objectionable facts of the space exploration history, strongly detracting from the role and achievements of the Soviet Union, which is particularly important in the modern situation, in many ways similar to the previous one, when the Russian Federation faces discrediting and sanctioning pressure by Western countries.

Scientific monographs, articles, publications and documents published in recent years in Russia and abroad that offer new ways to look at the stereotypes, the true causes and timeline of the space race, in particular, superiority in flying to the Moon, the amounts of financial and intellectual resources spent on it. The above publications allow us in a constructively critical way examine the role of the press, information and propaganda apparatus of both countries in this regard. This is especially important and symbolic because the recently celebrated 50th anniversary of the flight of American astronauts to the Moon has significantly increased the interest of scientists, specialists, and the general public in this topic, and most recently, the US President D. Trump bypassed international agreements and adopted a very controversial decree on the extraction and use of resources in space.

Key words: the USSR space program, space rivalry between the USSR and USA, the first artificial earth satellite, the lunar race, information and propaganda support of space programs, press coverage of achievements in space activities.

THE EVOLUTION OF WEAPONS IN HUMAN SOCIETY

The article is devoted to the study of the evolution of the development of weapons and the increase in the spectrum of their use in the modern world. Studying the problem of expanding the range of weapons used in the modern world, the author comes to understand the philosophical dictum “all means are good in war”, when any object (substance) in the world can become a means of destroying a person. Due to the awareness by mankind of the dangers of certain types of weapons (weapons of mass destruction), in the practice of armed struggle a whole spectrum of non-military weapons of destruction has appeared, including terrorist weapons. However, expanding the spectrum of non-military means of struggle in the modern world and increasing the frequency of their use against civilians is a serious threat to humanity.

Key words: weapons, the evolution of weapons development, gunpowder, firearms, aviation, missile weapons, weapons of mass destruction, information weapons.

TIBETAN BUDDHISM IN THE POLITICAL CONTEXT OF THE TSYN DYNASTY

The reign of this dynasty was accompanied by numerous cruelties, but the era from 1680 to 1795 was a Golden age, a time of unprecedented prosperity. It was then that the Qing Empire reached its maximum expansion: it included not only China proper, that is, the territory inherited by the Manchus from the previous Chinese Ming dynasty (1368-1644), but also other areas absorbed and conquered by them, such as: Manchuria, East Turkestan, Mongolia and Tibet. Qing China at that time was one of the greatest empires in the world, and the China we know today, in terms of territory, almost directly inherited the Qing oikumen.

RUSSIA'S FACTOR IN GEORGIA'S FOREIGN POLICY

The bilateral relations between Russia and Georgia and also a role of these relations in foreign policy agenda of Georgia are considered in this article. The Caucasian orientation in Russian foreign policy is a great importance of ensuring national security of Russia. The vital questions for the South Caucasian region are the world peas and stability. And Russia plays a key role in these issues.

Georgia, which is guided by Euro-Atlantic structures, already realizes that it won`t be admitted to NATO, so problems of territorial integrity of the country and threat of its safety will force the Georgian leaders to look for new allies. And Russia can become the key ally in this context.

The growing influence of Turkey is also of concern to Georgia. Has come an understanding that to balance the influence of Turkey will be possible only with the support of Russia. It should be noted that understanding the role of Russia and its potential in the region in Georgian politics is difficult, but the fact that the process has moved on says a lot.

Key words: Georgia, Russia, regional security, international security.
