RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS OF CHECHEN PEOPLE IN ANTIQUITY AND THE MIDDLE AGES

The article is devoted to the religious traditions of the Chechens, whose origins are in ancient times and have something in common with the cults of the ancient population of Western Asia. The work notes a certain continuity in the spiritual culture of the tribes of the North Caucasus, starting with the Eneolithic and ending with the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. And the late medieval Chechen culture reveals numerous parallels with the latter, especially at the level of symbolism applied both to architectural structures and to bronze items.

The work analyzes in detail the pagan pantheon of Chechens and its transformation under the influence of Christian ideas, when the idea of the One Creator becomes predominant, and all secondary deities are relegated to the level of saints and acquire anthropomorphic features. Culture, calendar cycles, symbolism bear the recognizable features of traces of Christianity, which was widespread among the Chechens in the 8th-17th centuries. Georgia played an important role in the preaching of Christianity in Chechnya, as evidenced by the use of medieval Georgian writing in mountainous Chechnya. However, some epigraphic finds confirm the activities of Byzantine missionaries on the flat territory of the region.

Islam was finally established in Chechnya in the 17th century. Since that time, pagan and Christian features in the funeral rites of the Chechens, in their everyday culture, folklore, have gradually disappeared or acquired other forms.

Key words: Chechen people, religious cults, neolith, Eneolith, early bronze epoch, stone, sun, fire, Paganism, Christianity, petroglyphs, cult buildings.

“IT'S EASY TO KILL, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SOUL?”: WOMEN-MURDERERS OF THE MID-XIX-EARLY XX CENTURIES. (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE TAURIDE PROVINCE)

A woman-mother and a woman-wife are the traditional perception of the female role in the public space. A woman-killer, and especially the one who took the life of her husband – the mainstay of the family around which her life revolved – was not accepted by society. The study examines and analyzes the main causes of spousal homicide in the Russian Empire on the example of the Tauride province. Until 1649, the emphasized dominance of the man in the family gave him the right to take the life of his wife, whom he considered guilty, with impunity. The study covers the period from the middle of the XIX to the early XX centuries. The judicial reform, which became a part of the life of Russian citizens, allows us to get into family squabbles and assess the real motives of manslaughters. It turned out that women who took the lives of their spouse were often unhappy and had suffered from beatings and humiliation for many years. There were cases when an unfaithful wife, under the influence of her passion, decided to kill her husband, and in such situations, she did not act alone, her lover acted as an accomplice. The so-called “new” court, with the introduction of juries, evaluated the life of women, their motives and adherence to the generally accepted norms. Those who acted in a state of affect, who protected themselves and their children from further physical humiliation and violence, could also be justified by the jury, but those women who were found to be adulterers were awarded the highest penalty for such crimes.

Key words: women, crime, manslaughter, spousal murder, Taurida province.

ENLIGHTENED TRADITIONALISM: RATIONAL ARGUMENTS IN FAVOR OF THE SPIRITUAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL CURRENT OF THOUGHT

In politics, the use of too capacious, widely interpreted concepts is often found. This concept can be attributed to "traditionalism". In a substantive conversation, it is problematic to use it, since adherents of different traditions fill this concept with their own meaning and the expectations of the opponent may not be justified. The main task of science is to create a library where every scientific thought and opinion will be taken into account and the relationship will be carried out within the framework of coherent logic. In the article, the author gives his own definition of the concept of "traditionalism", which does not exclude its similarity with other views. Traditionalism is considered through the history of European political thought and from the standpoint of ideology. The ideas expressed in the article partially coincide with the ideas of different political movements: communists, nationalists, socialists, conservatives, and religious organizations. Considering enlightened traditionalism, the author presents rational arguments in favor of the spiritual and philosophical current of thought.

Key words: traditionalism, state, politics, conservatism, democracy.

MASS AGITATION AND PROPAGANDAIST MATERIALS OF POLITICAL PROTEST ACTIONS 2017 IN RUSSIA

The form and content of agitation propaganda materials created by the organizers of political protest actions and intended for mass replication are examined. The study materials were used during the protest actions on March 26, June 12 and October 7, 2017. The theoretical and methodological base of the research was built on the basis of elements of descriptive political analysis, the concept of social identity of H. Tajfel and J. Turner and the model of mass consciousness D.V. Olshansky. The author comes to the conclusion that the creators of propaganda materials construct the image of power through the synthesis of phantom threats, established negative stereotypes and the representation of damage to society in personally significant everyday categories. Projecting the image of the enemy onto the establishment contributes to the formation of in-group favoritism, reinforcing within the protest audience the idea that they are superior to the authorities and their supporters in moral terms.

Key words: mass protests, agitation materials, political poster, non-systemic opposition, unconventional opposition.

The article is devoted to the actual problem of determining the processes related to energy aspects in international relations (including at the regional levels). It is noted that the most acute energy relations between states are manifested in international energy conflicts (IEC). The peculiarity of the IEC structure is that as one of the probabilistic elements in the composition of each opposing party, there is a victim who arises either during the conflict or outside the conflict, and can become the cause or reason for its beginning. The corresponding conclusions are drawn from the analysis of the IEC structure.

THE ROLE AND PLACE OF CENTRAL ASIA IN CHINA'S IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE

The PRC has recently been demonstrating high rates of economic development, which affects the position of the PRC in the international arena and the emergence of opportunities for promoting its own geostrategic interests in different world regions. A very illustrative example of this is Belt and Road Initiative, formulated in 2013, in terms of its scale and involvement of other states, it can become a leader among such integration projects. Analyzing the "geography" of the initiative and the goals pursued by China in the implementation of this project, we can conclude that the "Belt and Road" will allow Beijing to make significant changes in the balance of power in the European and Asian continents. The article examines the main content of the "Belt and Road" project, the directions of its implementation and the tasks set by the Chinese leadership in the course of this project setting. The article also decomposes the role of the Central Asian region in ensuring uninterrupted supplies of hydrocarbons to the territory of China within the framework of ensuring the energy security of the PRC. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, Central Asia, with its large oil and gas reserves and a strategically important geographic location, has become a region attracting major international actors.

COOPERATION BETWEEN EURASIAN ECONOMIC UNION AND LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN COUNTRIES: NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR RUSSIA

The Eurasian Economic Union development as one of the significant actors of contemporary global order is possible due to the extension of geographic reach and the successful integration of the EEU into the worldwide economic architecture. Russia is known to be a growth driver for neighboring countries, and in this context, EEU cooperation with states and associations of Latin America and the Caribbean has strong potential, although it depends on Russia's willingness to offer the countries of the region large-scale integration projects based on common economic and political interests, meanwhile retaining the role of the driver of Eurasian integration. Russian vast experience in cooperation with LAC region is its competitive advantage and will probably launch network processes of harmonization of socio-political, humanitarian and cultural transregional space. The Eurasian Economic Commission has already proved to be an effective platform for political and business dialogue, as well as expanding cooperation ties between the EEU and the LAC countries.

A.L. VUVING’S APPROACH TO THE CONCEPT OF «SOFT POWER»

The concept of "soft power" has become widespread in the modern world politics as one of the possible ways to implement the foreign policy strategies of states. However, there are still discussions in the academic community about what should be considered as "soft power" and how to avoid a lack of clarity between the definitions of power itself, its resources, and the tools for achieving it. This paper is intended to show an alternative view of the formation process of "soft power". The authors examine the main cases of the original concept developed by A.L. Vuving. The article provides a detailed analysis of the components of "soft power" that potentially affect the creation of the international relations actors’ positive image. This approach allows us to minimize the theoretical shortcomings of the counterparts’ works with their tendency to identify the actors' resources directly with their power. The appeal of the scientific community to the concept of "soft power" is an important step towards its improvement and development. The effective use of this approach in international relations requires a detailed theoretical analysis of all the components that affect the formation and transformation of a positive image of a state in the ability to influence others and achieve the set goals and objectives on the world stage.

Key words: soft power, power currency, tools of soft power, power resources, public diplomacy, international cooperation, A. Gramsci, J. Nye, A.L. Vuving.

THE IMPACT OF THE PANDEMIC ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF RELATIONS BETWEEN CHINA AND OTHER WORLD STATES

Since the coronavirus began to spread around the world, many analysts have speculated about its impact: will it simply accelerate pre-existing trends, or will it turn out to be a geopolitical "tipping point", creating a world completely different from before? The answer is much more complicated: the world during and after COVID-19 will have elements, both old and new, known and unknown. The purpose of the work is to establish trends in the changing relations between China and other world states.

The paper identifies the existing trends in the international geopolitical situation before the pandemic; analyzes China's strategic opportunities to change its geopolitical significance; identifies the reasons that determined the tendency to increase tension in relations with China of the leading countries and unions of the world; draws conclusions about the likely trends to change the geopolitical situation in the world. Methods used in the work: theoretical description, study of the historical context of events and analysis of current trends. As conclusions, we can note several significant points. First, China has strategic opportunities to change the geopolitical situation in the world, which is a direct consequence of the successful development plan of the national idea. Secondly, the international community, especially the United States and the European Union, are trying to discredit China's capabilities and contribution to the fight against COVID-19 infection. Third, the Chinese government and citizens are using their strategic advantage to improve the security of the global economy, making every effort to open up relations and develop the latest methods of organizing social relations to improve security.

Key words: pandemic, coronavirus, geopolitics, China, COVID-19, World Health Organization, USA, Europe.
