This monograph discloses the estate-based social structure of contemporary Russia by way of outlining the principles of the USSR's peculiar estate system, and explaining the new social estates of post-Soviet Russia. Simon Kordonsky distinguishes and describes in particular the currently existing Russian service and support estates. He introduces the notions of a resource-based state and resource-based economy as the political and economic foundations for Russian society’s estate structure. His study demonstrates, moreover, how the method of inventing and institutionalizing threats plays a dominant role in the mode of distribution of scarce resources in such a social system. The book shows fundamental differences between resource- as well as threat-based economies, on the one side, and traditional risk-based economies, on the other, and discloses what this means for Russia’s future.
Simon Kordonsky divides the social structure of contemporary Russia into distinct estates or social groups and describes each organization’s unique resource-based political and economic nature. As he guides readers through Russia’s peculiar service and support estate system, Kordonsky reveals how remarkably effective inventing and institutionalizing threats can be in the distribution of scarce resources in a social system of this kind. His book emphasizes the fundamental differences between resource-based economies and traditional risk-based economies and their role in Russia’s future.
The paper considers the application of fractal matrix tables for the formalization of ontologies required for the organization of conceptual search; demonstrates the relations between philosophical, linguistic and information ontologies and their logics; shows that the operational solutions of problems of existence in the search procedures are possible in consideration of the special observers (researchers) as elements of the pictures of the world.Application of fractal matrix tables’ formalism for the formalization of ontology gives an opportunity to determine the conditions of complementarity of different subject pictures of the world, and in conformity with this, to build variants of search strategies.
