Abstract: The article describes the results of a detailed analysis of Emile Durkheim’s and Robert Merton’s theories about the phenomenon of social anomia. The author analyzes why this term tends to be used mostly in a negative meaning. As a result of the research, the author concludes that there is a direct dependence of the general use of the term ‘anomia’ and meaning of the term ‘norm’. The author proves the need in understanding the latter as a dynamically developing category which directly depends on the social system of values and established rules of behavior prevailing in this or that society. The author also analyzes the reasons of establishing the traditional understanding of anomia at all levels of the Russian social system. Based on the reports of non-government international organizations and independent Russian mass media and social organizations the author makes a conclusion about a stable authoritarian tendency of development of the Russian society. As a result, the author concludes that the traditional ‘free of norms’ status of the term ‘anomia’ has been offset in Russian social reality. The author proves that there is a need in a completely new approach to the term ‘anomia’. Based on the example of a modern Russian society, the author offers an approach based on which the new order as disintegration of social and political system, suppression of the process of development of civil society institutions and deliberate suppression of civil activity at a social level and atrophy of individual consciousness at a personal level. So it is concluded that the new anomia should be involve prevention of further decomposition of socio-political system, on one hand, and active growth of civil society institutions, on the other hand. As one of the ways of realizations of the new anomia project, the author suggests that we should pay attention at the development of so-called the ‘third sector’.

Abstract: Based on Yulia Latynina’s views, the author of the article analyzes peculiarities of one of the types of social and political discourses. The author criticizes the term ‘state dependence ’ introduced by Latynina because it makes everyone feel like a social addict, i.e. someone who leads a wrong life or has a disease. The author also views the conditions for the possibility of social and political discourse: logic of reasoning, its grounds and proving methods. The author also considers the two forms of logic used by Latinina. One of them is almost Marxian: there are general social and cultural patterns followed by people whenever people realize it or not The other, subjective logic, is usually defined by a social actor’s beliefs and values. Based on examples in history (Mexican prince Tlacaelel, our tsar Ivan the Terrible, medieval struggle for the power in Europe between Popes and civil authorities), the author analyzed the connection between these two types of logic. It has turned out that on one hand, relations between personality, society and community plays an important role, and on the other hand peculiarities of the leading type of sociality and general social life conditions are important, too.

Keywords: philosophy, discourse, sociality, anomie, justice, state dependence, crisis, personality, society.

Abstract: The purpose of the article is to show the difference between conciliarism and globalism that sometimes remains undistinguished by politicians, social activists and humanitarians. At the same time, the author uses theological and culturological approaches to studying the problem. It expands the evidential base and creates a didactic effect for all church and society people. From the ontological point of view, conciliarism is the higher principle of unity because it is created by the ideal beginning. Globalism is the method of uniting based on the material beginning. Different ontology is the feature of connections in these systems, too. In global studies only mechanic and organic connections exist. Conciliarism creates the highest organic hierarchic system. Global connections are mostly material. But the main difference is that conciliarism is the unity made by the ‘God’s till’ while globalism is the unity made by the \'‘Prince of Peace’\'.

Keywords: cultural research, society, ‘subtle’ policy, theology, national unity, globalism, ontology, union, connection, fundamental nature.

Abstract: Reflection is a unique phenomenon that explains not only Darwinism but also some philosophies such as Sufism. Within the framework of our world uniqueness is not absolute. Similarity creates the grounds for interactions when one turns into the other and the other is returned in the same proportion to the interacting party. Biosphere is built on reflection, too, when organisms give birth to other organisms and interact with one another. This is the cardinal problem of science.

Keywords: philosophy, reflection, ‘one’ and the ‘other’, general – existence, Kant, Avicenna, Sufism, dialectics, uniqueness, similarity.

Abstract: The article investigates the subject of the philosophical reflection from the close of the 19th century till the beginning of the 21st century. The possibilities of the reconsideration of the Eurasian civilization are revealed as a stabilizing constituent of the Eurasian socium.
