the science of political science that I’m here for

I represent refers to a large cloud

of Social Sciences

studying social relations

sociology anthropology

culturology criminology economists do not

very much like when they relate to it

a lot but they also study

public relations

specific subject of my interest

science of political science are both in the

general follows from the name of political

Institutions and political processes

ideology of political technology when

we are trying to isolate what exactly we are

we study unlike all other sciences

who also study in much the same way

most because we often use

same data one and the

same court with surveys of the same

an array of information about how the

consumption of calories per capita in

the age of accession

in marriage how many live those or other

political regimes as varied

use of contraceptives at different

continents of the world all these public

science are looking at this

on this wealth of data and do from there

my conclusions so if you try

to isolate this is what is politically logical

separate than we are interested in, we would

I would formulate

it’s like a mutable part of what’s going on

with society that is changing right now

that this transformation is undergoing

places are the subject of our

specific interest in this matter

tracking changes

What can be called a story in mode

Real time our science has two

the enemy is actually a lot but the main ones

2 and it’s not fools and roads and not the army and

fleet

This is personalization and historical

analogy personalization is sticking

names

on the processes of institutions and phenomena it is in the

general human properties and people

Our brains are built so we are before

all draw attention to people

newborn babies are fixed on

people’s faces longer than any other

object including a colorful rattle

therefore, and becoming adults, we too

we track the faces of other people to us

It is more habitual to call political regimes

We want to designate the name of the person

the era of

name and most outstanding as we are

seems representative of not less than

This interferes with why personalization is

such an enemy because it turns

political processes in the placer

By chance, it turns our science into a

some perverted subspecies of psychology

infinitely trying to understand that in

head of this or that person she

It denies the fact that people are

speakers of certain processes

representatives of interests

personified by them institutions

but do not determine their historical

analogy enemy number 2 and he somehow here

is visible to us all as it seems to me public

space is very clear this

parallels between the current

historical moment and love others

sometimes this is done under the influence of magic

figures 2014 is quite like 914 and 2017

directly poured 917 and why yes because

the figures rhyme an anniversary

enchant our imagination than bad

historical analogy to the fact that it

denies the development of the wire here these here

lines of seeming similarities between us

today’s moment and some moment

in the past we see exactly what is not important

superficial relationship we do not see exactly

what is important is what has changed

actually, what should we turn to

attention nonetheless subject of my

speech is indicated as

technological middle ages high

The Middle Ages on the new technological

level why it would seem I

what a great enemy of historical analogies

This analogy would seem to be held here

I would like to distinguish between

analogies and metaphors analogy is

drawing parallels

metaphor is the assimilation to be

it is understandable when a poet says that a smile

Like his beloved

pearls in blooming roses this comparison

The metaphor does not mean that he wants to

to thread them on a thread

use as an ornament here

Analogues think exactly

that is, when we hear that

A hundred years ago there was a revolution and this was not

They prevented because of that and because of that there

it happened because of that and that’s why

now we are now in the present moment

Quickly you’ll fix everything and then from

st of bad what happened then not

there will be three designer delirium

one of the leading mental disorders

Our time can not be repeated again

back in the past I want to say this

original thought

Nevertheless, the comparison metaphor may

be fruitful because she

shows us some things in the present

and the near future which we otherwise would

Did not notice the meaning of this comparison

with high Middle Ages those changes

which occur with societies those

changes that occur with

public relations with the economy with

family with the labor market with political

institutions with political regimes they

More and more fortunately attracted

attention to humanity because it is understandable

that these changes

scale enough and they already

here they are already here

because we are generally used to

to pay more attention to threats than

on some positive signals this too

on and the sad property of our brain is well

helped primitive people survive but

she often catches our eyes

so we see often more threatening

than bright prospective topics

less all see that you are something

It is going well here

what changes what becomes different

shows us to what extent the world here

in which we let this live without realizing

this to the end was the fruit of a certain

specific historical period

which can be called post Westphalian

peace

Westphalian peace treaty as we know

in the middle of the 17th century he graduated from a 30-year

the war

bloody war swept through

throughout Europe what exactly is fixed

The Westphalian world is so new

world order then appeared

Reformation destroyed the Christian

she destroyed this unity here

baptized world under authority

The Roman Pontiff Post Westphalian World

became a world of sovereign states that

subsequently transformed

state national concept

sovereignty and is now one of the most

Our columns and pillars of ours

we often hear this

The term may seem that maintaining

protection of national sovereignty is something

what now most of all excites as

political elites and citizens themselves

Nevertheless, one must remember that this is

called so it was not always

The Westphalian world weakened the sacred

the Roman Empire

some such supranational

education which, in turn , is

followed the Western Roman Empire so

Here and if

the assumptions that

are expressed in our science of political science

then we can enter into a historical

an era when here’s the uniform

unified national states

which at the previous historical stage

have won the race of history have become the most

progressive most advanced in

economic technical military

respect somehow

conquered the world

surrounding that here these here

structure of national sovereignty

exposed to some erosion on two

levels on which two

at the top level should be national

formations unions contracts as

an example

The European Union or our Eurasian Union or

These ocean partnerships do not matter what

now it happens with some kind of

specific

structures or arrangements for

which I say is important, what is there

the great silk road to the new great

Silk way can be called important is that

globalization unites countries in

supranational level and develops

certain norms that are

preferential advantage

in relation to the national

Again, we are not

talking about whether it’s good or bad

I like it or does not like it

just fix this phenomenon at the level of

below

national sovereignty and are subject to

erosion from the side of what is called

new regionalism or even a new one

tribalism is a tribal

consciousness we see numerous

quite often sometimes successfully

Again, unsuccessful, it does not matter what

attempt to win regional

sovereignty is a successful one.

a successful trend is currently important

We look at the trend is not on the news

she process and on what happened

now it is something that basically happens

from here is this new regionalism

desire to find a new

Identity is more applied more

narrow in contrast or because of or

due to the processes of globalization and this

one of the

I do not want to say threats, but here’s one of the

such things as somehow from below

undermine these very national

unified national structures

one more thing I want to say about

this is an obvious concentration of economic

and manpower from hence

present future concentration

political power in cities and

urban agglomerations process

urbanization which was a key

The process of the 20th century led to

Well, in the whole world, well, let’s say so in

developed world in the first world, but also in our

Russia is more and more and people and

production and money and cultural life

concentrated in cities and around

urban areas of these

agglomerations is the assumption that

The cities and cities unions will be the centers

progress will be the centers of production

centers of innovation and, accordingly,

because I’m looking at everything with my own

specific scientific bell tower and

centers of course political

processes, too, that reminds us of this

the good old Hanseatic League of Cities

free cities of Italian cities

republic of the lightest republic

Venetian city ​​which then yes in

this is before the Westphalian world in the period

The high Middle Ages were the centers

progress in the centers of civilization and

culture a few more would seem

scattered and signs that are here

such a funny way when

You say this magic formula

the high Middle Ages on the new

technological level, the disintegration of

lifestyle that brought

industrial twentieth century that is

disintegration of work

production as the city was arranged 20

century before this industrial enterprise

housing for workplaces for children

workers and people who massively in the morning

go to their factory

work out their shift massively

come back we are not not up to the end

realize to what extent our cities

is arranged around this

now rapidly becoming obsolete in

ways to work people more and more

no longer work at the plant, and certainly

not even in the office, at home or wherever they can

such people are becoming more and more

more and this is also suspicious to us

resembles a medieval man

who did not have a fixed worker

the day

but as if all the time was busy when

it is said that here people work

fewer and fewer according to estimates

Sociologists residents of the UK

compared with the eighties

increased free seven hours

a week when people tell them

this causes indignation

they say yes no, we are for or in general

day and night we are working now

the rhythm of life, then everything accelerates

speed up before time was some kind of

slow and cozy and quiet I now it

some kind of stormy

means and almost impossible

you manage to figure out this flow

information that falls on you

all the time, all someone wants something for you

we are 24 hours a day, so it seems like

as it seems to us that we are round the clock

work but this particular work is

work to some extent by oneself

it also reminds a person before

mass society of man yes I’m here

These unified and unified

unifies their states a new role

religion in people really appeared

more free time even if they

it is not realized in people at least

in the first world in many respects satisfied

primary needs lower floors

pyramids of oil somehow rebuilt people

begin to think of themselves about the soul

begin to think at all these reflections to

differently do not always lead to a good

new religiosity has its own dark

aside

do not even tell everyone himself

can they have a very visual

representation is still a fact people

rational 18 19 20 of the century was striking as

this in the Middle Ages means such

quantities could be killed by a friend

friend for the idea for

religious discern how it is a little

It will no longer be clear though

be we would not want this to such a

degree is well understood here is this one

A new way of life in which no one you

A finished work place does not provide

which is this

the perfect dream of the 20th century came boy

to the factory and from there he was buried

she somehow already crumbles is no longer

it turns out that they are only

The Soviet dream is when the Japanese ideal

too, including no more probably

Such are the giant industries that

ready for you

absorb and give you ready and

workplaces ready to work and

respectively, a ready identity

generally ready-made identities are less and less

less and more and more to us

You have to choose them for yourself

already even a sex accessory to you in

the maternity home is not given out as it is necessary

to imagine her in a more mature

age, not to mention the more subtle

things

this imposes on a modern person

responsibility that often becomes

He is beyond the power of a relationship we are waiting for

Something new compared to again with

the twentieth century when people can not

saw each other often in the morning to work

left the evening the work came the children in the summer

and in the pioneer camp, well, can only

Weekend as you pay attention who

there next to you lives a

respectively, before the era

traditional societies of common interest in

family was just an interest in survival and there

This requirement that the partner should

give me self-realization and and

spiritual growth and satisfaction of all my

The emotional needs of others are not

had a common interest was simple with hunger

do not die in winter do not freeze

accordingly this one here

burden of responsibility for choosing a partner

for choosing the type of family for choosing not a worker

there is no such place anymore but for choosing

the type of occupation that you will be

education also stopped

be an education once and for life

people learn all the time and it is obvious that this

will continue to increase

Qualifications change their qualifications

here is another interesting similarity is here

this transformation of education

medieval universities do not give

They studied seven professions

free art 7 noble art

the goal was not practical application

This knowledge for something out there and the goal was

the education of this man here

noble, elevated enlightened

as they said in the era a little later

under the influence of these seven

We now have this free art

seems a little more understandable can already from

the first education is expected sooner

formation of a general picture of the world

the formation of a personal

our skeleton than rather than applied

knowledge we understand that we do not care

we will have to get them and not one

time and again several times if we

themselves do not imagine a kind of occupation

think of what we will sell to it

the world that looks at us then no one for

we can not be like this like this

great responsibility is the new

freedom that seems important here and

valuable and meaningful we often hear the phrase

There is no freedom without responsibility and the fact that

it will be for freedom it will be

some permissiveness we will say

another is not responsible without freedom

responsibility comes for one’s choice

This is not a bag that can be entrusted

man on the back and say let’s go

and when he does not want to bear that reproach

his is that he is so irresponsible

what I myself chose for it, and I answer and

what other people have assigned to me I can

also if I am so full

sense of duty but it’s not mine

responsibility because it’s not mine

freedom is this new world

differentiated full

more horizontal than vertical rather

networks than strict hierarchical structures

a world in which

at each stage it is necessary to choose

In fact, of course it does not look like any

a different historical period so

metaphors can show it to us

some new angle

But the analogy will not give us

no fruitful conclusions

less often it is necessary to repeat about

yourself here this very same

the formulation is this this new world

blossoming complexities I will recall this formula

bakhtin in relation to the high

the Middle Ages

world of post absolutism and there can be peace

post of sovereignty and there can be peace in

which the national state

transformed into something else it is that

fascinating reality in which we are

you have to live
