Byzantium: historical and politically philosophical meaning of the Christian Empire
// Politics and Society.
2010. ¹ 1.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53536
Abstract:
Creation of the Christian Empire by Constantine the Great was a unique historical experiment and possibly the only example of a dying leviathan ‘healing’ itself, successfully overcoming the system problems and existing thousands of years after. History does not know the more effective political system than the one practiced in Byzantium. Byzantine civilization gave unique and important contribution to history and politics. However, it did have serious shortcomings which eventually led to the fall of the empire.

Provincial Komsomol in the System of Relations between the Soviet State and Russian Orthodox Church (1940th — early 1960th)
// Politics and Society.
2010. ¹ 1.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53538
Abstract:
Having analyzed the normative documents of state, party and Komsomol bodies as well as archive records of the State Archive of Social and Political History of Tombov region, the authors concluded there was a religious spirit rising among youth during the Great Patriotic War and the first two decades after the War. Komsomol officially fought it but was more tolerant to such spirits than in 1920-1930. Factually, Komsomol faced the two options: be with God or against God. Numerous objective and subjective factors predetermined contradiction nature of its following actions. However, all those actions were only certain stages of atheistic activity of different intensity. Under new historical conditions, Komsomol didn’t even try to come back to bellicose atheism.

Criticism of the Theories of Evangelistic Grounds for Socialism and Marxism in archpriest John Vostorgov’s works
// Politics and Society.
2010. ¹ 1.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53540
Abstract:
At the present time both Russian and foreign philosophers speak a lot about the close connection between Christianity and socialism. Such sayings as ‘Jesus Christ is the first communist’ and ‘God told to share with others’ are quite famous nowadays. In this respect, it seems quite topical to come back to the works by a distinguished figure in Orthodoxy, John Vostorgov who was shot by Bolsheviks in 1918. A great number of his books and articles were devoted to dethronement of such stereotypes.

// Politics and Society.
2010. ¹ 1.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=53541
Abstract:
Local community is a resource of local self-government which is not realized to the right degree. Forms of direct realization of self-government by population are an effective mechanism of involving citizens into local decision making process. Evaluation of their self-organizing (synergetic) potentials allows us to assess the processes of cooperation between self-government bodies and local communities.
