"RUSKA IDEJA" KAO ELEMENT POLITIČKE KULTURE RUSIJE

Author(s): Milan Subotić / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 2/1996

Starting from the widespread opinion that the reason and explanation for the failure of a rapid democratic transformation of post-communist Russia should be sought in the characteristics of the Russian political culture, the author interprets current discussions on the concept of the "Russian political culture" as a renewal and extension of the traditional philosophical-political debate about the meaning of the "Russian idea". In the first part of the paper Almond’s classical definition of "political culture" is presented. The fruitfulness of applying this concept in understanding communism is subsequently analyzed, stressing the importance of thematicizing Russian tradition in explaining the emergence and functioning of Bolshevism.

1789-1917, Rückfahrkarte

Author(s): Francois Furet / Language(s): German / Issue: 01/1990

The revolutions of the 20th century, which were carried out or forced under the sign of Leninist principles, left nothing to be rebuilt on. The revolution of 1789, fought under the banner of human rights, had often failed to follow its own principles due to its chaotic course; but she had staked out the terrain and defined the ideas that from then on governed modern politics for everyone, including their opponents. Even the counter-revolution still drew its temporary strength from the revolution. In contrast, the historical necessity of communism at the end of the 20th century turns out to be a catastrophic illusion. Not a single Leninist idea has stood the test of time, and the massive rejection of these ideas among peoples reveals nothing other than a simple return to the principles of 1789 - a return that will be all the more unwavering when the communist revolution once went against these principles. The suppression of the free market, the end of private entrepreneurship and the dictatorship of the unity party leave only illusions and ruins, a landscape that, especially where the regime was in power for a long time like in the Soviet Union, resembles a desert. The socialist states and societies offer the unique spectacle of nations that must restore at all costs what they thought they had to do away with, since in their recent past they no longer found a single principle on which to base themselves. This also gives her current situation something almost pathetic.

1917-2017: Уроки столетия для России и мира

Author(s): Konstantin Lobanov / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 12/2016

В сознании россиян 1917 год связывается, прежде всего, со столетием Февральской революции и последующими за ней октябрьскими событиями. И не случайно. Ведь тысяча девятьсот семнадцатый справедливо считается переломным моментом новейшей истории, после которого Россия и мир уже не могли быть прежними и начали развиваться по новой социальной траектории. Многие государства под влиянием идей русского революционизма и практики постреволюционной модернизации развернулись от дикого капитализма к социальной ориентированной экономике, отказались от авторитаризма и формальной демократии в пользу открытой и диверсифицированной системы власти и управления, перестали подавлять личность и предоставили людям больше прав для самореализации. Все это стало возможным благодаря глубокому осмыслению русского опыта, его творческой переработке в сферахэкономического моделирования, государственного строительства и социальных взаимоотношений. А что же россияне? Как у них обстоит дело с рефлексией? Иначе говоря, усвоили ли они собственный опыт, извлекли ли уроки из своего прошлого?
