Department of the Philosophical Problems of Politics

Head of the Department: PhD in Political Science Svetlana Ilinskaya

 

 

The main trend of research

In the context of the transition from a unipolar world order to a multipolar one, the main contradiction is the awareness of the problem of civilizational diversity, the reconstruction of cultural identity and national identity. Important aspects of the research are the questions of the relationship between personality-culture-civilization-state, which offer a new basis for the civilizational identity of Russia. The main directions of the analysis involve the study of the geopolitical conditions of Russia's civilizational choice, including its Eurasian aspect; the revival of the idea of utopia as an integral part of project thinking; prospects for reforming the political system; ensuring security as an internal core of the national idea.

 

The topic of the sector  tasks according to the Research plan and State task for 2018-2022: «Russian project of civilizational development» (head chief - A.V. Smirnov, administrator - S. A. Nikolsky), No. 156-2018-0030. Reference number AAAA-A18-118052990107
