Abstract:
Introduction. The study of the civilizational development stages of Russia is relevant due to the increasing role of the civilization factor in the modern multi-civilization world. The analysis of the scientific literature on the civilizational development of Russia shows that views on the nature of Russian civilization are pluralistic. The aim of the work is to analyze the historical stages of the civilizational development of Russia. The main tasks include the analysis of the Orthodox, Soviet and modern Russian civilization, their role in the multi-civilization world. Materials and Methods. The theoretical civilization model of S. Huntington is used as a theoretical and methodological basis for the analysis of the Russian civilization. To identify the stages of formation of the Russian civilization, historical, comparative, institutional and structural-functional methods were used. Results. From the point of view of its civilization development, Russia has gone through three stages: the formation of an Orthodox civilization, Soviet and Modern. Orthodox civilization was the core of a multi-ethnic and multi-religious cultural community of the Russian Empire. Its unique qualities did not predetermine confrontation and hostility towards the states of other civilizations. The Soviet civilization was formed as a result of state policy on the basis of communist ideology. It was in confrontation with the capitalist states of other (primarily Western) civilizations. The modern civilization of Russia is formed on the basis of the historical cultures of the peoples of Russia and the institutions of a democratic state of law. Its characteristic features create the possibility of cooperation with other civilizations of the modern world. Discussion and Conclusions. The civilizational development of Russia includes three stages, within which three different civilizations were formed: Orthodox, Soviet and Modern. Throughout its history, Russia has interacted with its surrounding countries and carried out a cultural and civilizational exchange with them. In most cases, this exchange was peaceful and mutually beneficial.

Abstract:
The author of the paper insists on the need to highlight two complementary aspects in understanding the nature of civilization. In one case, civilization is a historical era, and in the other, it is the civilizational development of individual local states or societies (local civilizations). The paper reveals the thematic field of research on civilizational issues from the perspective of socio-philosophical knowledge (including its philosophical and historical component). It is noted that the uncertainty and vagueness of the concept of civilization is largely due to the fact that its philosophical status has not yet been identified, since the concept is considered, as a rule, without connection with the system of socio-philosophical categories. An important theoretical issue is the question of civilizational self-awareness of society. i.e. awareness of oneself as a civilization. Further, the paper talks about the theoretical and practical significance of studying the level of development of local civilizations during the transition from an independent type of development to a dependent type of development. Much attention is paid in the paper to the analysis of the dependent and backward type of historical development of non-Western civilizations, which lasted during the five-century cycle of world history. The last section of the paper discusses a complex and not fully clarified question, which was posed by S. Fourier in all detail. Does civilization as a historical era have a time frame of existence or is this era forever? Today’s change in the vector of world development, the rejection of unipolarity allows the author to raise the question of the transition of humanity from the era of civilization to a new era, to the New modernity, when the further development of human society will take place according to the laws of culture.

Abstract:
In connection with the preparation by the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences of a collective monograph on the results of the implementation of the megath­eme “Russian project of civilizational development: philosophical foundations”, the book review analyzes the experience of preparing monographs of recent years devoted to the civ­ilizational interpretation of Russia. As follows from the review of monographs, there are stable interdisciplinary research teams that continue to comprehend the civilizational identity of Russia in the subjects of various disciplines (philosophy, sociology, political science, cultural studies). The problems of the architectonics of civilizational development, the correlation of So­viet civilization and the Eurasian project, the prehistory of Russia as a geo-civilization, its position in the modern world order, the identification of Russia as a northern civilization are discussed. The concept of local civilizations is mainly used as the most convenient methodological tool. Sociologists are testing the methodology of civilizational analysis (J. Arnason, S. Eisenstadt). The civilizational identity of Russia is recorded ambiguously. The frontal comprehension of the civilizational nature of Russia has not led to significant results. Peer-reviewed scientific monographs are recommended to the widest range of readers and are mainly made in an informational and educational style. The degree of scientific elaboration of the problems under consideration and the analysis of available solutions to them are rarely recorded. Ideas are formulated intuitively, without sufficient conceptual justification. Therefore, the authors’ proposals on the civilizational develop­ment of Russia look naively utopian The discussions of civilizationists (in particular, bul­garists and tatarists in the Republic of Tatarstan) remain insignificant for the population. These are manifestations of the postsoviet regression of scientific and methodological culture in social and humanitarian studies. According to the author the review shows that the fruitful directions of civilizational re­search are the assimilation of French civilizationism of the XIX century, the clarification of the disciplinary status of the concept of civilization and the civilizational approach, the identification of fundamental values specific to local civilizations.

Abstract:
the theory of world civilizations presupposes a number of stages of social development of this phenomenon: civilization as an alternative to savagery and barbarism; local civilizations; diverse cultural and historical types, Slavic cultural and historical types in particular. The characteristics of the phenomenon under study, as well as the vicissitudes of civilizational choice are considered. Great attention is paid to Russian spiritual and cultural traditions, specifically the Russian civilization. A significant stage in the development of mankind is the noospheric civilization, the next civilizational stage of development after industrial society. The author notes that it is time for an urgent transition towards it, since the model of capitalism as a socio-economic formation has exhausted itself. The article proves that today many hopes are pinned on the digitalization of the economy and society, which will lead to a new round of civilizational development. Noospheric civilization is based on the infinite possibilities of the mind to comprehend, understand and improve the natural world and the human world through science and creative activity on the basis of good and virtue, morality and ethics, freedom and social justice. The practical implementation of the ideas and principles of noonomy is a long process of entering the era of noospheric civilization. One of the fundamental roles in this process is played by technological transition. One of the directions of the modern development of noonomy is the energy transition and projects for the advancement of the “green economy”. There is an active preparation of a fundamentally new scientific and technological basis for the economy in Russia – the “Strategies for the development of nature-like (convergent) technologies in the Russian Federation” project. The main phases of the implementation of this Strategy have been determined, new methods are being quickly mastered and applied, and the legislative framework is being developed on a planned basis. Noospheric civilization, noospheric society and noonomy as a consolidating concept and a realistic project as well remain a desirable and theoretically plausible development alternative.

The nature of the emergence of the need to introduce computers, introduce digital technologies and conduct digital transformations is analyzed. It is proposed to consider digital transformation as a response to civilizational challenges, the essence of which is reduced to the existence of civilizational cognitive contradictions of mankind. It is the presence of civilizational cognitive contradictions that is a prerequisite for the systemic adoption of wrong decisions, the unrestrained accumulation of which is the source of degradation of civilization. An understanding of the civilizational mission of digital transformation has been formed.

Jensen, Anna M. "Modernity and the Good Death : Heidegger and Jose Clemente Orozco's Epic of American Civilization /." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2009. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/1905.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis will analyze José Clemente Orozco's mural The Epic of American Civilization in terms of the problem of suffering. It will focus specifically on two panels, “Human Sacrifice in Ancient Times” and “Human Sacrifice in Modern Times.” This analysis will comprehend not only the works of art within their historical context, but also within Martin Heidegger's philosophical discussion of the question of suffering. Heidegger presents a unique perspective on the question of human suffering when he writes that Western humans have forgotten how to “dwell.” This dwelling is defined by Heidegger's novel conception of ontology as relational rather than individualistic. According to this theory, humans must identify themselves through their associations, both with other people and with things. Without these associations, humans are not be able to escape the anxiety associated with suffering and death brought about by the isolating effects of Western modernity. A discussion of Mexico provides a practical example of the complexities of the question of dwelling in Western thought. At the time Orozco was painting his mural, Mexican identity was rapidly fragmenting. In the decades after the Mexican Revolution, many artists wrestled with the concept of Mexican identity, and it was in this time of flux that Orozco offered his interpretation of the cyclical progress of humanity. The two paintings depict two forms of suffering, which this paper will refer to as a “good” and a “bad” death. This nomenclature is not strictly accurate as neither form could be said to be desirable in any concrete way. Consequently a Rivera painting (“Revolution – Germination”) will also be presented that suggests an ideal death. However, the focus will remain on Orozco's paintings. Of course, in his own paintings Orozco is not endorsing the act of human sacrifice. However, because of differences in their composition, they suggest not only a cyclic pattern to human history, but also a downward progression where the persistent problems of violence and suffering in human societies have grown more difficult and complicated since the advent of modernity. As Orozco's paintings seem to suggest and Heidegger will argue, the solution to the isolating ‘bad death’ is learning to live relationally. These relationships comprehend the social and the cultural, but the focus will be on the ecological and the divine, because, as several critics will argue, these are the greatest deficiencies in modernity.

Rowlatt, Linnéa. "A godly environment : religious views of nature in early sixteenth-century Strasbourg." Thesis, University of Kent, 2014. https://kar.kent.ac.uk/55002/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis offers three case studies of religious representations of the natural world in Strasbourg from 1510 to 1541 from the perspective of the interactive model of socioeconomic metabolism. This model proposes that long-term environmental instability will exert a negative effect on human/social biophysical structures and may provoke changes in the manner in which the natural world is represented within that culture. Although direct causation is impossible to prove due to the autonomous nature of the cultural sphere, this thesis suggests that the two case studies of early sixteenth-century religious reforms in Strasbourg indicate the presence of theological innovations that changed the conceptual relationship between faithful Christians and Creation, thereby offering an enhanced capacity for adherents to exploit the metabolic opportunities in their natural environment. Further, it suggests that these cultural developments were supported and strengthened in part by the stresses society experienced from the natural world. The thesis begins with a description of the natural environment in Alsace during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, with particular attention given to the weather from 1473 to 1541. These decades spanned the coldest years of the Spörer Minimum, itself the second coldest trough of the Little Ice Age. Although weather was the most dynamic and influential element of the natural environment during this period, the model suggests that long term stress from the environment may provoke re-conceptualization of the entire natural sphere of causation. Three religious perspectives are taken as case studies in the thesis to test the model: Roman Catholic, Radical, and Evangelical Christianity. They were created temporally and geographically in proximity, but offer different theological representations of nature. Tentative conclusions arising from their juxtaposition with each other and the climatic conditions suggest that the model is helpful to better understand the complex social and cultural changes during the Reformation. The first case study focuses on Die Emeis, forty-one sermons delivered by Johann Geiler von Kaysersberg in the Liebfrauenmünster zu Strasbourg for Lent 1509. By reading against the grain of these sermons delivered by a well-known and highly respected Doctor of Theology, an orthodox Catholic representation of the natural world and the appropriate human relationship with it is revealed. This chapter also includes information about pre-Reform society in Strasbourg and Alsace, in order to provide a basis of comparison for later developments. The second case study explores three sources known to be popular with Alsatian peasants from 1515 to 1525: astrologist Leonhard Reynmann's Wetter Büchlin, Ein Fast schon büchlin by Clemens Zyegler, a lay theologian from Strasbourg, and Article IV of the Twelve Articles which formed the foundation of peasant demands during the German Peasants' War. The third case study focuses on Hexemeron Dei opus, written by Strasbourg Reformer Wolfgang Capito. An exegesis of Genesis 1-11, Capito writes explicitly of God's creation of the world for human salvation. The aftermath of the Peasants' War in Strasbourg and Alsace are described here, as well as social initiatives in Strasbourg favoured by Reformers such as welfare reform and education. The model of socioeconomic metabolism suggests that following an extended period of material insecurity and social instability caused by environmental uncertainty, cultural agents will modify the representation of nature in order to render human colonization of the natural world more effective. While it is impossible to firmly attribute causality for developments in the religious view of nature to environmental stress, it can be shown that the weather during the decades at the eve of the Protestant Reformation repeatedly limited or removed adequate metabolic intake from those disadvantaged by an increasingly unequal society, contributing to social instability which culminated in the 1525 German Peasants' War. Representations of nature in the examples studied from the new religious movements removed layers of spiritual mediation between humanity and nature which had been and continued to be accepted by the Roman Catholic Church, specifically articulating views which encouraged greater exploitation of the natural environment. Those who rebelled are known to have strongly favoured the new theologies, indicating the possibility that part of the widespread support in Alsace for reformed and radical theology may have been due to the enhanced conceptual opportunities they provided for exploiting the natural environment.

Abstract:
Depuis ses origines, le film de montagne est un genre filmique qui recoupe la civilisation occidentale. Il s'inscrit dans l'évolution historique de la montagne et contribue à la reconstruction médiatisée de l'imaginaire ancestral, notamment au travers d'une révolution qui mêle un large faisceau de perceptions et de projections. Le genre peut être entendu comme un objet occidental, créé et façonné selon des codes particuliers, contrairement à d'autres sociétés qui ont certes représenté la montagne, mais de manière différente. L'ancrage du genre est d'abord européo-occidental puis occidental, et montre une prédilection pour la représentation de certaines valeurs civilisationnelles fortes. Il s'en suit une uniformisation des thématiques et codes représentés à l'écran, de l'ascension au capitalisme en passant par l'aventure « extrême » exportée à l'international
Since its origins, the mountain film is a Genre in connection with the Western civilization. It fits into the historical evolution of the mountain and helps mediated reconstruction of ancestral imaginary, especially through a revolution that mixes a wide ensemble of perceptions and projections. The mountain film can be understood as a Western object, created and shaped by specific codes, unlike other societies that show the mountain in different ways. The genre take place in western Europe, since in western civilization, and shows a predilection for the representation of strong civilizational values. It follows a standardization of themes and codes shown on films : ascent, capitalism, « extreme » adventure exported internationally

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the question of how primitive states form. The first part of the thesis defines a state. I then analyse Hobbes�s Theory of the Commonwealth by Acquisition (TCA), expounded in Leviathan. I conclude that this theory fails as an answer to the question of how primitive states form as it suffers from at least five major flaws. I go on to explain, modify and correct Hobbes�s TCA through techniques that have been used in modern critiques of Hobbes�s Theory of the Commonwealth by Institution. The result is the strongest possible answer that Hobbes can give to the question of how primitive states form. I conclude that his attempt fails as even if the technical aspects of his theory can be fixed, the overall problem of empirical falsification occurs. I then put forward my own theory, based on the modified Hobbesian theory. The major innovation is the replacement of individuals with groups in the Hobbesian State of Nature. This move answers the problem of empirical falsification, at least initially. The theory also helps to explain several of the more technical problems with Hobbes�s theory. The resulting theory is a Hobbesian theory of primitive state formation. The next step in the thesis is to match the Hobbesian theory of primitive state formation to the empirical evidence of primitive state formation, represented by anthropology. I analyse the anthropological literature and put forward that at least one recent research program in anthropology matches my Hobbesian theory of primitive state formation. I conclude that Hobbesian theory, based on the TCA can be successfully modernised into a plausible answer to the question of how primitive states formed.

Full text
Abstract:
Female archetypes reflect a social construction of reality, expressing expected modes of behavior, beliefs, and assumptions about women and are reinforced by repetition of common patterns and themes. Often female archetypes take on the physical characteristics of animals, commune with nature, engage in sexual promiscuity, and possess special powers to bewitch and control men into doing their bidding. Four prevalent archetypes include: the Predatory Woman, who with her bestial nature becomes the hunter of men; the Sacrificial Woman, who dutifully negates herself for the sake of men; the Bad Mother, who is cold, unnatural, and challenges men; and les enfants terrible seductive girl-women who at once tempt and torment men. This research traces the development and evolution of female archetypes and explores how images of women, nature, sexuality, and evil are structured within a cultural framework of Western tradition: myths and folktales, religious, philosophical, and scientific works, and film.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper seeks to understand the complicated nature of the relation of ‘nation’ to ‘civilization’ and vice versa and most importantly the implications that these relations have for the evolution of official migration regimes in India since Independence. While civilization continues to be one of the abiding elements of Indian State’s world-view in general and foreign policy in particular, the country is still grappling as it were with the reality of the nation(-state) and its twin imperatives of territorial enclosure and restriction on free movement of people across borders. The paper concentrates on how Indian State’s self-understanding as a ‘civilizational nation’ in the immediate aftermath of Independence gives way to the present stage when the nation is understood as a self-contained civilization itself. It proposes to view the evolution with reference to a few stages and focuses mainly on how the evolving nature of our State ideology might help explain the variation in State’s responses to cross-border migration over the decades.

Abstract:
The paper deals with analysis of concept of history of nomadic civilization in the steppes of Mongolia, appeared in the essays by prominent Japanese novelist Shiba Ryotaro. This approach made great impact towards the popular view of Asian and Eurasian history among Japanese readers. The author aims to identify, analyze and present main ideas of Shiba’s concept of history of nomadic civilization in Mongolia and Great Steppe. Sources for analysis of these ideas are two essays and travel notes by novelist, Mongolian Travel Notes (1974) and Steppe Notes (1992). The article shows ties between civilizational approach of A. Toynbee and concept by Shiba Ryotaro in relation to nomadic civilizations and demonstrates essential features of its development. Texts by Shiba Ryotaro present a new understanding of nature of Asia within the Japanese social and historical thought in the post-war period.

Abstract:
The philosophy of history needs the availability of basic components, namely: historical material (cognitive), historical thought (historical mentality represented by sense and historical awareness), and a balanced academic method (organized and precise) in order for the rational philosophical vision to emerge from comprehensive study of a civilizational nature for which laws (theories) can be formulated. ), with realistic evidence and evidence, called the philosophy of history! . Al-Yaqubi (third century AH / ninth century AD) showed comprehensive analysis with his sense and historical awareness, and through his historical criticism and his renewal of the method of historical recording, he distinguished himself from those who preceded him and those who followed him with his book entitled “The Problem of People of Their Time and What Predominates in Every Age,” thus revealing the beginning of For the idea of the philosophy of history, where he laid the foundations for the theory of the problem (imitation, imitation) as one of the engines of the wheel of history, a factor influencing the spirituality of the era, the natures of the members of society, and an important and vital part in the formation of human civilizations . The law of problematization, in its philosophical theory, requires AlYaqoubi to reveal the characteristics of each caliph in his policies, interests, and social behaviors, which applies to those with power, influence, prestige, and authority, and as a symbol and role model for society (an elite group), in a collective imitation of their behaviors (at all times and places) by individuals. Human societies. Accordingly, Al-Yaqubi assumed that rulers have a fundamental role in preserving states and societies, and developing civilizations. They can either reform or corrupt them at all levels of civilization, and therefore the problem changes according to the trends of the elite symbols !

The purpose of this study is to analyze the content of the late (2012-2014) works of E. S. Kulpin-Gubaidullin to establish the main reasons for the refusal of the Soviet and Russian philosopher from the application of the methodology of socio-natural history (hereinafter SNH) to the historical past of Russia. The analysis itself is carried out in the paradigmatic line of the SNH and concerns the features of the presentation and interpretation by E. S. Kulpin-Gubaidullin of the prerequisites, the course, and consequences of Peter I's reforms. Special attention is paid to the influence of the natural factor on the formation and transformation of the basic values of Russian civilization

Abstract:
Today, we are more likely to speak and write about the more progressive destruction of land biosphere as a result of irrational economic activities of mankind – the replacement of traditional natural ecosystems by anthropogenic systems (techno-, urban- and agro-systems), discuss the harmonization of the interaction of society and nature, talk about growing socio-political tension and instability on the planet. However, it is not just about understanding the effects of environmental civilization, but also awareness of the psychological and socioeconomic consequences of the brutal destruction of the biosphere, finding ways and means of solving the tasks associated with the ecological crisis, which has already entered the geopolitical level – during the last years there is carried out an intensive research on the effects of the crisis in the biosphere on the system of national interests and state security. The war waged by the Russian Federation against Ukraine is causing serious environmental damage to the Ukrainian state. Combat operations spoil the air, pollute water bodies, destroy forests and unique ecosystems, destroy crops and, in the long run, can cause colossal damage to the ecosystem of the whole Eastern Europe, and shorten the lives of Ukrainians. Key words: biosphere, ecosystem, evolution, ecology, civilization, the Russian-Ukrainian war, safety, problem, ecology.

Full text
Abstract:
During the 2020s, key technologies will converge to completely disrupt the five foundational sectors that underpin the global economy, and with them every major industry in the world today. In information, energy, food, transportation, and materials, costs will fall by a 10x or more, while production processes an order of magnitude more efficient will use 90% fewer natural resources with 10x-100x less waste. The knock-on effects for society will be as profound as the extraordinary possibilities that emerge. For the first time in history, we could overcome poverty easily. Access to all our basic needs could become a fundamental human right. But this is just one future outcome. The alternative could see our civilization collapse into a new dark age. Which path we take depends on the choices we make, starting today. The stakes could not be higher.

Inter-American Development Bank, April 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0008312.

Full text
Abstract:
Inspired by the encyclical Laudato Si', by Pope Francis, Nobel prizes and world experts pose concrete options for advancing in a regional eco-integration where social and environmental dimension of development are priorities. The commitments made to mitigate climate change at the Paris and Marrakesh summits require the cooperation of different nations in a joint effort to counteract global warming. Latin America has an enormous natural wealth that represents an opportunity, but also a great responsibility: to protect the planet and at the same time find ways to reduce the inequities that characterize the region. The new edition of IDB-INTAL Integration & Trade Journal offers creative measures, analyzes the governance challenges offered by the current scenario, describes sustainable models of trade, examines the impact of climate change and draws bridges to advance in an integral ecology where humanism became the engine of civilization.

Full text
Abstract:
Boswellia resins are described in numerous ancient texts and have been an important trade material for the civilizations located in the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa since at least the third millennium BCE. Frankincense (olibanum) is an exudate that seeps from injured bark of Boswellia species (Burseraceae). The oleogum resin obtained from Boswellia serrata is called Indian frankincense and is used in the Ayurvedic, Siddha, and Unani systems of traditional medicine. Additionally, its extracts and essential oils are used in soaps, cosmetics, foods, beverages, and incense products. This Laboratory Guidance Document aims to review the analytical methods used to authenticate natural oleogum resin from B. serrata and differentiate it from other Boswellia species, as well as other potential adulterants. This document can be used in conjunction with the B. serrata Botanical Adulterants Prevention Bulletin published by the ABC-AHP-NCNPR Botanical Adulterants Prevention Program in 2018.1 From a historical perspective, a number of oleogum resins from Boswellia species have been used interchangeably for medicinal purposes around the world, and older “olibanum” pharmacopeial monographs consider more than one species as officially acceptable. Such interchangeable use is still observed today as several Boswellia species are offered as frankincense.2,3 However, Western botanical dietary supplements and the herbal medicine markets are dominated by products labeled to contain B. serrata, irrespective of whether a formal identification of the ingredient has been performed or not. Therefore, this laboratory guidance document has been written to help laboratory analysts to find appropriate analytical methods that allow the unambiguous identification of B. serrata oleogum resin and its extracts.
