Komosa2 “IDEAL UNIVERSITY” AS VIEWED BY “UNIVERSITY PEOPLE”: EXPERIENCE IN RECONSTRUCTING THE VALUE CATEGORIES OF RESEARCH AND PEDAGOGICAL ACTIVITIES BASED ON INTERVIEWS IN THE 2010S3 The article examines the self-identification and professional values of the university community in post-Soviet Russia. On the basis of the corpus of the interviews, which were recorded by the Poletayev Institute for Theoretical and Historical Studies in the Humanities (Moscow) in the 2010s, the authors analyse how the contemporary Russian scholars consider the problems of university autonomy and university management, as well as the criteria to define an ideal University and an ideal Professor. Instead of the unique perceptions on the specifics of research and educational characteristics of university space and people, the present investigation represents the problematization of the basic definitions of university and its purposes by the contemporary Russian scholars. Keywords: oral history, history of post-soviet universities, university community, academic persona JEL Classification: Z. 1 National Research University Higher School of Economics (Moscow, Russia).

  • Civil Society and the Challenge of Russian Gosudairstvennost
    Civil Society and the Challenge of Russian Gosudairstvennost JOHN SQUIER S oon after being named acting president of the Russian Federation in early 2000, Vladimir Putin announced that one of his priorities would be the restoration in Russia of what he termed gosudarstvennost. Treating this term as more or less synonymous with "sovereignty," Western observers tended to inter- pret this declaration with a certain alarm (as indeed they interpreted most of Putin's initial declarations), emphasizing a hypothesized connection of the term gosudarstvennost to resurrected notions of Russian national greatness and inter- national assertiveness. That Western observers would express such concerns, in the context of diplomatic disputes over U.S. intervention in Serbia and Russian policy toward "states of concern" such as Iran, Iraq, and North Korea, is under- standable, but more recent events have demonstrated that Western concerns over gosudarstvennost, at least as far as international relations are concerned, were misplaced. Western observers' initial negative reaction seems to stem from a misunder- standing of the term gosudarstvennost, which is, in and of itself, neutral; the Ozhegov L)ictionary of the Russian Language (1986) defines it as "state system, state organization" (literally, gosudatstvennyi stroi, gosudarstvennaya organizat- siya). Gosudarstvennost thus refers less to sovereignty in the international arena than to sovereignty understood as an aspect of domestic politics-the ability of the state to act as an internally coherent governing body. Actual usage of the term seems to indicate that it means something like "statehood" or "the quality of being a state." In the aftermath of the chaos of the 1990s, when the Russian state vir- tually ceased functioning in some respects, restoration of gosudarstvennost seems an eminently sensible priority.

Levine, B.A. (Hons) McMaster University SUPERVISOR: Professor Peter J. Potichnyj NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 176 ii Abstract This thesis investigates the emerging political party system in Russia, from the beginnings of pluraJism in 1986 through 1992. It does so in the context of the theoretical and methodological implications of the literature on transitions to democracy, and with reference to literature on political party systems. This thesis examines the beginnings of independent group activity, the groups' formation into movements and blocs and their participation in elections, and their evolution into proto-parties as the USSR collapsed and the Russian state gained independence and its own identity. The literature on transitions to democracy is agency-oriented, in that it places an emphasis on political parties in the transition process. While it is unclear--~------- at--- this----- rDoint - -- in--- time whether Russia is indeed undenwin{!v '-' a transition to democracy, proto-parties in Russia have played - and will continue to play - a key role in the transformation of Russia from Communism to post­ Communism. The future shape and structure of the Russian multi-party system is, however, difficult to predict, because of the nascent and immature nature of the system in the time period this paper examines.

  • STATE and CIVIL SOCIETY in RUSSIA: the Role of Nongovernmental Associations
    CONTENTS Abstract i Introduction 1 Part I: Theories of Civil Society and Conceptualizing State-Society Relationship in Russia 2 Part II: Non-Governmental Associations and Their Contribution to the Development of Civil Society in Pre-Soviet Russia 6 Part III: Russia Now and the Development of Civil Society 20 THE STATE AND CIVIL SOCIETY IN RUSSIA: The Role of Nongovernmental Associations Joseph Bradley University of Tulsa The Author's main conclusion is that nongovernmental associations play an essential role in the formation of a civil society in Russia (as well as in ex-totalitarian, autocratic and bureaucratic- authoritarian societies generally), and are a pre-condition of other limitations on state power. The paper addresses civil society theory, analyzes the historic role of such associations in pre-Soviet Russia, and their current rapid growth in Russia to that role.2 Abstract "In Russia the state is everything and civil society is primordial and gelatinous." (Antonio Gramsci) Generations of scholars, Russian and Western alike, have concurred with the observation of Gramsci, which seems so aptly to describe Russian political culture. Although in the past decade historians and social scientists have begun to utilize the concept of civil society and to examine aspects of historical civil societies, Russia is rarely invoked as an example. And not without reason. Russian subjects had none of the rights that undergirded civil society in the West. While "classical" western theories of civil society originated in the penumbra of royal absolutism, no such philosophical tradition emerged in the darkness of eastern absolutism. Moreover, historical models of Russian political culture reinforce the philosophical silence.

  • Determinants of the Policy Impact of Analytical Communities in Russian Regions: Cases of Karelia, Tatarstan and Saratov
    Cent. Eur. J. Public Policy 2017; 11(2): 23–42 DOI: 10.1515/cejpp-2016-0033 Dmitry Zaytsev, Nina Belyaeva*1 Determinants of the Policy Impact of Analytical Communities in Russian Regions: Cases of Karelia, Tatarstan and Saratov ABstract: This paper evaluates the policy impact of analytical communities in three Russian regions (Karelia, Tatarstan and Saratov). Based on the existing methods to assess the political power of think tanks, the authors develop a method to evaluate this impact. The authors test this method using the empirical data and findings from interviews, workshops with representatives of analytical communities of the three regions, and from observations and assessments of experts in regional politics. In conclusion, the authors argue that the capacity of analytical communities to impact policy change in a region depends on the level of political competition and pluralism and democratic institutions in the region; the level of consolidation of the analytical community, its autonomous political status and authority. KEYWORDS: Think tanks, analytical communities, political power, influence, policy impact RECEIVED 17 October 2016; accEPTED 1 August 2017. INTRODUCTION The consideration of policy making as a top-down process, as an activity exclusively or primarily of state and municipal authorities, overlooks the effect of non-state actors on the policy making process such as NGO’s, associations of business, and think tanks. The complication of political processes in modern societies led to the rise of importance of policy specialists − intellectuals, who have special knowledge in public policy and specific expertise in diverse policy fields. Efficient policy-making without those actors and their knowledge become impossible (Dahl, 1989).
