Plebeian Republicanism
This article deals with plebeian republicanism, a relatively new current within the classical (civic) republican tradition. This current is characterized by a special attention to the works of Machiavelli who insisted on the productive character of conflicts between patricians and plebs in the Roman republic and hoped to institutionalize in a similar way the conflicts between the nobility and the people in the Florence of his days. Based on such …
Bruno Latour
Authority and Power in Russia
Can classical political theories of mixed constitution from Polybius to Cicero help us shed new light on Russian politics? In order to so, this article first considers political structures of such non-parliamentary republics as medieval Novgorod and Venice, while choosing Constantinople as a basis for their comparison. Second, using Anthony Kaldellis's recent book that has reinterpreted Byzantium in terms of the classical theory of res publica, i…
“The Mission of Politics . . . is to Put into Words the Experience that has Eluded a Constructed Reality”
Luс Boltanski visited Russia in September, 2019, to support the publication of the Russian translation of his book Mysteries and Conspiracies: Detective Stories, Spy Novels and the Making of Modern Societies. It was his second visit to Russia, where he delivered three lectures. The first lecture was dedicated to Mysteries and Conspiracies. The second lecture was dedicated to his last book Enrichment: A Critique of Commodities, which he wrote with…

Republicanism in Russia
Introduction
It is often argued that a shared culture, or at least shared cultural references or practices, can help to foster peace and prevent war. This essay examines in detail and criticizes one such argument, made by Patrick Leigh Fermor, in the context of his discussing an incident during World War II, when he and a captured German general found a form of agreement, a ground for peace between them, in their both knowing Horace's ode I.9 by heart in Lati…
Friendship and Politics in Russia
In the context of a symposium on enmity, this article-the product of extensive research done by a group of colleagues in St. Petersburg-concerns characteristic types of friendship in Russia. The author distinguishes in particular between instrumental political friendship, which Russians tend to scorn, and the intensely emotional and intimate sort of friendship, usually shared in a group rather than a dyad, that Russians consider uniquely their ow…
From Priests to Pathfinders
IT IS NO EASY TASK TO WRITE ABOUT the fate of the humanities in Russia, because the term does not exist in the Russian language or academic culture.Russia has gumanitarnye nauki, "human sciences," but that term is almost a calque of the German Geistesweissenschaften, the distinction of which from Naturwissenschaften was so famously articulated by Wilhelm Dilthey.If the Naturwissenschaften are sciences of nature, then the Geistesweissenschaften ar…
What Is the State? The Russian Concept of Gosudarstvo in the European Context
What allows us to talk about the state as an active agent when we understand that only individuals act? This article draws comparisons between Quentin Skinner's exposition of the history of the concept of the state in major European languages and the history of its equivalent Russian term gosudarstvo in order to provide some general hypotheses on the development of the phenomenon of the state, and on the origins of this baffling usage. First, sum…
Nation, Nature and Natality
The concepts of nature and nation are both rooted in the notion of birth. Thus both can be conceived anew if the underlying vision of natality is conceptualized, following Hannah Arendt, not as a set of inexorable biological processes, but as the fundamental human capacity for political action. This reconceptualization of natality allows proposing an alternative to the prevalent commonsensical ethno-nationalist definitions of nation-hood, and als…

The Corporate Ethic, the Ethic of Samostoyatelnost and the Spirit of Capitalism
This article attempts to elaborate a culturalist approach to the problems of the current economic reform in Russia, which is based on the works of Karl Polanyi and Max Weber. It argues that the currently predominant corporate ethic of Russian industrialists may not necessarily be viewed as an obstacle to national market-building. On the contrary, it may prove useful in the initial phases of constructing the Russian national market, because it see…
