Summary/Abstract |
NORMALLY, the historical-cultural aspect of social-political processes is not treated as an item of top priority of the scholarly agenda. More likely than not, researchers tend to look for the sources of what is going on in economic conditions or political ambitions of individuals or communities and let out of sight one important component, i.e., the cultural foundation of societal systems which is rooted in a distant past.

Summary/Abstract |
TODAY'S SOCIETY undergoes processes that, besides exceptional dynamism, are marked by a new kind of complexity as a result of interaction between social systems, subsystems and actors. Economics increasingly manifest themselves through politics - something that the founders of Marxism pointed out a long time ago, - and there are more and more spheres where the humanities overlap with politics. Issues that are rooted in the past have become a routine technology for political rivalry. So has the languages issue as a means of domination in a specific sociocultural space and as a mechanism for the pursuit of specific political interests.

Summary/Abstract |
DESPITE the multidirectional trends evident in the modern planetary landscape, overall, its emerging architecture is tending toward interconnectedness. The new civilizational image is universality and indivisibility. The world is becoming so interconnected that we can talk about a different level of scientific reflection expressed in Parag Khanna's vision of possibly establishing "Connectography" as an academic discipline, with the maxim "Connectivity is destiny" serving as its refrain
