The article discusses some of the results of the Great Reforms of the 1860-1870s. The author states that it was a rare example in history when the imminent serious political and economic crisis, expressed in the preservation of serfdom in the largest country in the world that could lead to significa...nt social upheavals, was resolved with the help of reforms. The crisis of the serf system had been brewing since the end of the 18 century; it permeated all aspects of the country's life and hindered its development. But the enormous scale of the upcoming changes, which could lead to widespread discontent of the nobility, which formed the basis of the state apparatus and the army, frightened the governments of Alexandr I (1801-1825) and Nicholay I (1825-1855), who also remembered the fate of father (Pavel I, 1796-1801), killed as a result of a nobles plot. The catalyst for reform was the defeat of the Russian Empire in the Crimean War from the more advanced European powers and the change of government that occurred as a result of the accession to the throne of the new Emperor Alexandr II (1856-1881). Alexandr II decided to reform, understanding the destructiveness of defeat in the war and, given the widespread dissatisfaction with the existing order. Russia freed from many remnants of the middle ages, especially from serfdom, as a result of the changes in the 1860-1870s. It was possible to prevent a major civil conflict. The post-reform period was a time of successful economic development of Russia. New enterprises were built, industrial production increased significantly, intensive railway construction was carried out. It was during this period that new industries appeared in the country, which later played a significant role in its development. We are talking about oil production and refining. At the same time, the reforms carried out “from above” were of a compromise, incomplete nature. The remnants of the feudal order lay a heavy burden on the Russian economy. Every year, public discontent and opposition to the government’s policy grew, both from below and from above. Under these conditions, radical groups professing the populist ideology turned to terror, the victim of which was, among others, the reformer Alexandr II himself.

In 1941 the Novgorod museums planned to continue the work they had been doing in the past few years. It included the restoration of monuments, archaeological excavations, and publishing activities. New exhibitions opened. Particular attention was paid to the recent history of the country. All this e...nded after the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. The retreat of the Red Army units from the western border and the bombing of Novgorod demanded the most urgent evacuation of the population, enterprises and all museum valuables. Exhibits of the Novgorod museums were eloigned in four turns. On June 30, 1941, the city authorities gave the order to start the evacuation of museum valuables. But it concerned only unique items made of precious metals: ancient gold and silver items from Novgorod cathedrals and monasteries as well as precious jewelry pieces. Novgorod was occupied by the Nazis and their allies. Museum workers managed to evacuate only a part of the exhibits to the Soviet rear and, thus, save them from destruction. This was due to the commitment of the Novgorod museum workers: B. K. Manteuifel, N. G. Porfiridova, P. A. Kryzhanovskaya, T. N. Konstantinova, and L. A. Konovalova. On February 4, 1942, by the order of the People’s Commissar for Education of the RSFSR they all were awarded a commendation “For the exemplary work on the evacuation of museum property”.

The article discusses the objective aspects of the remuneration of the industrial and production personnel of the USSR in the 1960-1970s. The purpose of this work was to consider the material well-being of Soviet engineering and technical personnel, as an essential element of daily life in the count...ry. Demonstrated statistical and numerical indicators of the material support of engineering and technical intelligentsia, wage growth, and the system of incentives for workers. After all, often at enterprises, the salary part of the ITR was based on the remuneration of the master or the technician of the workshop, and sometimes the labor of the engineers and foremen was equated, but valued equally, which caused controversy and disagreement in the team. At the same time, engineering and technical personnel and service personnel could be counted among the workers of the so-called “city-forming” enterprises of the country, who ultimately received an average of 9-10 % more than employees of other enterprises. The article mentions the fact of the actions of the leaders of large industrial enterprises, who had the right for engineers and technicians to independently set wage premiums, both to highly qualified specialists, and to masters and industry leaders. On the one hand, representatives of industrial personnel received a stable and higher average wage, and on the other hand, not always the nature of the duties of employees of enterprises directly proportional to the level of wages.

The author shown in this article, that the introduction of new economic policy wore a number of features in Kalmykia. The Kalmyk organization of the RCP (b) received the right to organize the Regional Committee of the RCP (b) in 1921, which was directly subordinate to the Central Committee of the RC...P (b). This testified to the fact that, firstly, during the civil war new elite was formed, oriented towards the RCP (b), which was able in the early 1920s take responsibility for the development of Kalmykia. Secondly, within the framework of the ruling party, the RCP (b), this new elite joined quickly the all-Russian political process. A fine illustration of the above is the biography of the chairman of the KalmCIC A.Ch. Chapchaev, who actively participated in all-Russian processes (civil war, suppression of the Kronstadt rebellion, work in central party and state organizations, participation as a delegate at party congresses and conferences, etc.), did a lot for the development of Kalmykia and its people. A.Ch. Chapchaev and other Kalmyk leaders began development work in Kalmykia, in addition to traditional cattle breeding, other types of economic activity in the early 1920s. This, above all, was about the development of agriculture and the creation of industrial enterprises. These measures were supposed to contribute to the creation of a sustainable economy, a more rapid departure from the nomadic way of life, faster integration into the all-Russian economic processes. An unprecedented drought and then a famine in 1921 became a serious obstacle to the restoration of the Kalmyk economy undermined by previous wars. Most of the residents of KAO were starving. But thanks to help from the Government of the RSFSR, other regions of the country, other states, including Mongolia, the consequences of the famine were quickly overcome.

The mechanisms of the formation of value systems and civil identity in the virtual space are considered. The relevance of such studies is due to the weak elaboration of the problems of symbolic politics implemented in the Internet space. The multi-stage structure of social communication and the role... of opinion leaders in constructing of political agenda, as well as the video blogosphere as an instrument of civic mobilization are analyzed. The study of the formation of virtual identity in the conditions of informatization of societies makes it possible to form a number of conclusions indicating that: 1) the traditional ways of consolidating national communities and political groups, are undergoing transformation under the influence of widespread daily communication flows; 2) group solidarity and a set of value meanings are in constant threat of change, since there is a contradiction between the set of social values declared in the official ideological discourse of the state and real needs and the public consciousness of civil society; 3) youth associations and young people themselves, as the most politically active social group, are prone to critical rethinking of the concepts and ideologies broadcast by the government and the state; 4) there is a need to improve the level of representation of the activities of state actors in order to build effective communication between civil society and the government.

This article is dedicated to topical issues connected with ensuring of cyber security in the European Union on national and supranational levels of cyberspace regulation. The article states that due to the growing threats in cyberspace the role of national government in cyber security sector is chan...ging. The nation-state is delegating part of its responsibilities to the supranational bodies of the EU which in their turn determine the strategy in this sphere. However, this leads to various contradictions that are caused by different development level of the EU countries, different cultural traditions and different personnel availability. The EU is in fact conducting an experiment in cooperation between national and supranational bodies, and the results are not yet clear. The article also provides statistics of cybercrimes in the European Union before and after 2014. The author shows how cyber crime, cyber attacks and hacking can affect not only security in cyberspace itself, but also national security in general and the level of security society currently provides for its members.

The article is dedicated to the transformation of political relations amid digital network reality. The authors consider the development of society from the point of view of its network aspects, highlighting the role of digital technologies in the networking processes. Digital online networks are in...terpreted by them as an integral part of the aggregate political space. The problem of the dialectical relationship between the online and the physical world of politics, also in relation to the Russian reality, is addressed. It is demonstrated how digital networks modify the main elements of political relations: the actual subjects of political relations, the nature of the interactions between them, as well as their vision of the subject of political relations - the questions of power, governmental and socio-political order. The paper focuses on how these changes are integrated into the context of a post-modern society, including its characteristics such as the variability of social forms, post-facticity and the lack of sociocultural integrity. Considering the trend towards the robot automation of digital networks, it is proposed to approach the subjectivity of artificial intelligence in postmodern political relations as a debating point. The authors emphasize that the risks and uncertainties produced by these transformations make the problem of professional assessment of the technological progress political dimension relevant.

The article deals with the analysis of the transformation of the discourse of European identity during the second half of the 20th - beginning of the 21st centuries. A search for general patterns of this process can help build appropriate models applicable to the political conditions of the Russian ...Federation. The situation in the European community was chosen as the empirical material, mainly within the framework of the European Union, currently uniting 28 countries.

At the same time, it is proved that technoideology is a natural result of the development of modern society, since t...his concept, refracting the actual needs and desires of a new “social organism” through the prism of its own vision, finds a response and opportunities for their implementation. In addition, an attempt is made to prove that the space of modern social reality is such that technogization and virtualization are defined as the essential characteristics of modern society. Man overcoming the boundaries of reality, moves in the virtual technorealism, operates according to its laws, turning into a single global mechanism, in which all are governed by the defined technologies, and also controlled the new technolologies. In conclusion, it is concluded that, in this context, the most important task of modern society is to find ways to the harmonious development of the technosphere with the anthroposphere, where the basic value becomes technoideology, forming a new format of relations that allows humanity to preserve its anthropogenic uniqueness.

This article discusses the deformation of the world order and its impact on the global cultural, ideological, spiritual, religious and ethical values. The author focuses on the differentiation of scientific knowledge. Of particular interest are the humanities, which are currently experiencing a seri...ous crisis. We will explain this crisis by the fact that the lack of research prevails in humanitarian knowledge of the last decades, and the scientific discourse is reduced to a superficial simplified view of reality. Plus, the boundaries of the humanities are blurred. To eliminate the superficial approach in scientific knowledge, the author suggests using philosophy, since the methods of philosophical analysis help to look beyond the horizon of everyday life and to reveal the most common foundations of social life. Although philosophy itself is a synthesis of social sciences and humanities, but it is in it that the heuristic basis for integrative research is laid. Such a strategy will create prospects for predicting political processes. The author builds his position based on the scientific traditions of Moscow University at the beginning of the 20th century.

This s article is an attempt to analyze the ideological and political evolution that took place in the views of the famous Russian scientist, public figure and ideologist of Pan-Slavism V. I. Lamansky. In this work the authors are analyzing two later texts of V. I. Lamansky (“A Look at the Fates o...f South-Western Slavs” (1900) and “Is it possible to compare Russia with Austria-Hungary in regard of nationalities?” (1900), using methods of political textology. It is shown that in these articles, devoted to the state of the Western Slavs at the beginning of the XX century, which were published in the Viennese magazine “Slavic century”, Lamansky adhered to the idea of “Cultural Pan-Slavism”. According to this idea Slavs needed to accept a single literary language that the Russian language should have become. The authors note that Lamansky, like all Slavophiles, saw the “Slavic question” included in the antagonism of the «two worlds», Greco-Slavic and Romano-Germanic, which have differences in religious, civil and «moral» nature. Nevertheless, at the turn of the XIX-XX centuries, Lamansky’s “Cultural Pan-Slavism”, even with changes, already seemed too vague and gave way to “Cultural and Economic Pan-Slavism”.

Politics and law in modern education are presented as two completely different disciplines, based on different areas of interest and solvable range of tasks. But, it is worth noting that in pre-revolutionary history, politics and law were not divisible, and attempts to crush state science could not ...be completed until it was impossible to consider one without the other. The post-revolutionary scientists of the Soviet era have managed to delineate competencies. But despite today's division of scientific competencies between politics and law, there remains a lot of interdependence.The article shows the possibility of integrating politics and law into a single indivisible science, which is capable of solving a number of applied political and legal tasks. The genesis and evolution of national state science, joint and separate competencies of state science in university disciplines are analyzed, which helps to consider the divisible and indivisible in national state science from different sides.

The article is a review of a common field of objects which are used by two different philosophical traditions: phenomenology of religion and postphenomenology. The common key points of two approaches are analyzed in their view of the nature of religious experiences and religious objects. A theoretic...al justification of a class of phenomenology phenomena of religion by Rudolf Otto by means of the concept of Jean-Luc Marion is proposed. Solving the problem of preserving the specifics of religious phenomenon with the help of the means of the New French phenomenology makes it possible to take a step towards the mutual development of two disciplines. New horizons for the use of an improved phenomenological method and its application in various areas of human culture are considered. The typologies of phenomena given by Jean-Luc Marion in the New French phenomenology, as well as the nuances of using the methodological approaches of postphenomenology and their influence on religion and philosophy are analyzed.

Desire is a fundamental characteristic of human existence and a cultural reality. The system of signs encodes desire and makes it available for analysis. The realization of desire takes place in the aggregate of cultural practices. Thus, the study of the influence of the desire on the change in the ...quality of human existence, and the study the transformation of culture as a complex system open up a new space of problem for us. New vision of the problem can be formulated as follows: to what extent the management of desire on the part of culture can be constructive for the subject and for the culture itself. The article concludes that the modern attitude to desire can be described as “quasiascetism”. Unlike religious ascetism, the new form of self-restraint is not the result of deliberate choice. It not part of the process of "taking care of yourself" and it not the way of attain free yourself from social and cultural norms. Function of asceticism maintaining a high level of intensity of desire. This function is achieved by creating cultural phenomena that create a break between desire and its realization.

The article is devoted to examining the influence of Tibetan Buddhist constants on the traditional culture of Oirats. The study shows that the ideas of Tibetan Buddhism significantly influenced the formation of a picture of the world of Oirats. Such constants of Tibetan Buddhism as “the unity of m...ethod and wisdom” and “tantra” organically entered the worldview of Oirats and greatly influenced the development of their cultural code and mentality. By embracing the Tibetan Buddhist culture constants, the Oirats created their own system of spiritual values. As a result, the Oirats formed a belief in the existence of their special religious mission, which they should fulfill as defenders of Buddhist teachings. From the point of view of gender approach in religious studies, these Tibetan Buddhist constants emphasize the special role of the feminine principle, which contributed to the formation of respect for a woman in Oirat society and the enhancement of her social status.
