От среда на несигурност към национален разкол – случаят Сирия

Author(s): Aleksandar Dimitrov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 4/2018

The Syrian crisis is one of the most persistent and dramatic conflicts of the 21st century. It has become a crossroad of the global interests of the great powers, the dispositions of regional players, and a field for the realization of hybrid and proxy wars. The aim of the article is to show how maintaining an environment of uncertainty leads to the reproduction of uncertainty even in seemingly stable countries. For this purpose, the Index of Failing States (2005 – 2017), Water Indices (Tensions, Scarcity and Risks), etc., are being traced and compared with the rise of political tensions in Syria. The analysis shows that the risky environment leads to catastrophic consequences - from economic ruin to national disruption.

ПРОБЛЕМА НЕПОТИЗМУ В СУЧАСНОМУ УКРАЇНСЬКОМУ СУСПІЛЬСТВІ

Author(s): Olena Mykolaivna Sakhan / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 2/2017

A problem of nepotism in the modern Ukrainian society is viewed as one of manifestations and powerful sources of corruption which shows itself as practice of placing one’s relatives, acquaintances, friends or persons within a high-ranked individual’s circle to certain offices without regard to their professional skills and training at other people’s expense. It has been underlined that a destructive result of the nepotism’s personnel policies lies in the fact that unfavourable psychological climate is established among the staff, «unhealthy» organizational set-up is formed, basics of teamwork are ruined, and employees who enjoy no protection lose motivation to fulfill their duties properly; as social lifts are broken, young and talented specialists have no opportunities to be promoted, improve their financial and social status, and this causes migration of an able-to-work, highly-trained portion of the population abroad. The above factors decrease work efficiency of employees in certain teams and lead to deterioration of growth indexes and rates of an institution (establishment, organization, etc.) which ceases developing. Attention is drawn to the fact that immorality and unlawfulness of nepotism manifests itself as ignoring interests of a community (society, state), especially at the state and local levels; as interests of merely a small group of people who are linked through family or mental relations; this causes conflicts between family clans in pursuit of domination over that certain area, and tension in the society. It has been emphasized, that Ukrainian officials justifying themselves by the fact that «tradition» of showing favouritism to relatives and friends is rooted in our people’s minds have made a wide use of practice of nepotism and have turned Ukraine to a «state of developed nepotism» for only twenty-five years. Manifestations of corruption with nepotism atop enhance as a number of officials increases, that’s why the size of the officialdom which shall not be greater than that established by the European regulations must be controlled. It has been concluded that in order to overcome the problem of nepotism in the Ukrainian society, these very personnel policies and similar discriminatory practices which are applied to recruitment in the state’s various agencies must be abandoned, and officials must be punished severely for their wrongdoings starting with the top authorities and administration. For that end, bearing in mind experience of advanced states which made success in their struggle against corruptive phenomena, the society and authorities should focus their efforts on activation of anti-corruption bodies’ work and enhancement of control over compliance with requirements of the Ukrainian legislation in force which sets limits on placement of immediate relatives to senior public offices and promotes prevention of corruption. Establishment of anti-corruption mentality in citizens and strong intolerance of public opinion to any sorts and forms of corruption in all spheres of public life shall be facilitated through educational institutions and the mass media on the basis of world-recognized educational standards.

Развој и јачање демократских капацитета у Србији путем примене праксе грађанске непослушности

Author(s): Aleksandra Mirović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 3/2011

In the article the author analyzes the events from 5th October 2000 in Serbia, their outcome and their various characterizations. It shows that frequent designation of the events as a revolution or an over turn, even as a putsch, is very disputable. Applying the method of analytical testing some important characteristics of these categories on the considered case of Serbia, aims not only to show that it can not find here, and that it is wrong to use the terms, but to mark and set aside essential elements of what is really in this example implemented as a means of political struggle. Exactly, this is an evolutionary strategy of mass civil disobedience. Namely, the force has been a key factor influencing the direction of events, and acting on the very outcome, but it was a potential and latent power reflected in the mass of active citizenship and his expressed readiness to fight, if would be need, with all means for recognition of his electoral will. However, as the scenario of providing active, i.e. right (armed) resistance to the regime was not realized, the protests that took place 5th October has remained at the level of civic struggles for the protection of the existing constitutional order, which was being endangered by then authority itself (so- called the usurpation of legality) in its manner of governance. And this is precisely the key moment which suggests that, despite quasi-democratic conditions, i.e. the lack of that rigid institutional condition stricto sensu, which the dominant Rawlsian conception set as a necessary framework for this kind of practice, the protest actions of the Serbian citizens can still be treated as an acts of civil disobedience. Systemic- institutional context is certainly framework of actors’ behavior. But the social and political activities of citizens are affected by social norms too. In Serbia’s case, just the civil norms of a new political culture emerging have secured the necessary contextual framework for the implementation of the civil disobedience practice. The main conclusion is that the analyzed case of Serbia, as an example of successful implementation of civil disobedience for the democratization of political power, shows how much can be great social capital and strong political forces made by associated disobedient citizens, i.e. how much citizenship’s activity can contribute to both, developing and strengthening the democratic capacity of one society and its political institutions. Therefore, special attention is devoted to analyzing the present state of civil society in Serbia, its unused social and political potentials, and tendencies of marginalization and irresponsible disqualification of civil disobedience practice.

СПЕЦИФІКА ІДЕОЛОГІЇ В ПАРАДИГМІ ПОСТМОДЕРНУ

Author(s): Svitlana Vyktorivna Kutsepal / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 2/2017

The article explores the semantic content of the concept of «ideology» in the postmodern paradigm and analyzes ideology as an instrument of political action.It is proved that the 20th century has set the task for the European community to solve which is very difficult – to orientate and find oneself in the landscape of absolute worldview freedom, to resist the «terror of complete freedom» (Z. Bauman), because the total pluralism of postmodernity is most clearly manifested in the ideological sphere of social consciousness, where the faith of the Modern Age and the socialist-communist dogma are denied. Humanity is compelled to build its own ontological reality not only materially, but also symbolically – by word and idea. World outlook problems turn into means of political influence.This results in awareness of the need to develop the most comprehensive picture of the world, overcoming the ideological deficit, building a world outlook «foundation», which will ensure the possibility and effectiveness of public consensus, will allow the information of multiple world pictures to the generally accepted model. Humanity finds the way out of this worldview crisis in the topos of ideology, which is designed to try on the coexistence of different worldviews in the conditions of the autonomization of the political sphere.It is argued the thesis that lining around the central mythologeme, ideology is capable of implosion of other, additional, politically significant meanings, thanks to which it is possible to turn the population into an electorate.It is proved that the specificity of ideologies in postmodern conditions is that both left and right ideologies have arhizomatic nature, due to which the emphasis is made depending on the situation or on the conceptual or emotional component, they both are declared substantively equivalent in the intellectual dimension of the political sphere. That is why modern ideology often has a mystifying, illusory character (K. Manngheim), carries out a hidden, non-reflective influence, calls for romantics, and the pragmatists are the first to distribute the results of their struggle.

Феномен и схема. Подстъпи към една възможна критическа феноменология

Author(s): Kristiyan Enchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2017

This article elucidates why the Kant’s transcendental scheme in its orthodox type is not a functionally reliable bridge in the transition from pure cognitive forms to real experiental “crystallizations”, and how this can be compensated by its transformation into a phenomenal structure including as its own elements regionally relevant kinaesthetic organization and “encoded ideas”. Ideas undergo deformalization – from “purely regulatory” schemes of reason, they go to constitutive structures that comprise regional figurative adhesions and as such receive regional “encoding” – contentful concretization. This type of rethinking of the transcendental scheme also leads to a significant change in the way in which local phenomena should be understood (such as, for example, socialization and education) so as to guarantee their rethinking in the transition from the empirical (but hermeneutically grasped manifold) to the phenomenal integrity in the encoded ideas as a regionally relevant, concrete “figurative kinship”.
