Politics begins to be thought of as a complex of ...
The category of pity in «The Great Divorce» by C.S. Lewis and «The Lord of the Rings» by J.R.R. Tolkien
The article analyzes the main features of the category of pity in the texts of two inklings — C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien in the context of the ethical binary opposition of “good and evil”. This binary opposition is not randomly chosen: Lewis wrote “The Great Divorce” in order to refute the famous artistic idea of William Blake about a fruitful union or the marriage of Heaven and Hell, which personifies the creative mixture of good and evil, and as a result, the blurring of the boundaries...

Wittgenstein’s followers vs Habermas: A solution to I. Berlin’s dilemma
This article analyses Berlin’s negative and positive interpretations of freedom and idea of value pluralism. It is concluded that pluralism of values and liberals’ negative freedom results in the problem of relativism and ‘Hobbes/Berlin dilemma’ — the dilemma between individual and collective reasons. The concepts of freedom of L. Wittgenstein’s (Hurly, Pettit) and J. Habermas are considered through the prism of these concepts.

Teoretical nonstationary two-dimensional modal with altitude-longitudinal variations of ionosphere parameters
By means of mathematical two-dimensional nonstationary model mechanisms of formation of longitudinal effect in a middle-latitude ionosphere are probed and is shown that one of main engines is the thermosphere wind in combination with earth magnetic field geometry. Model calculations of dependence of longitudinal effects in middle-latitude F-area from levels of geomagnetic and solar activity are carried out. It is shown that with increase in a geomagnetic disturbance the behavior of electronic concentration...
Lessing’s Hamburg Dramaturgy in the “codes of hope” discourse of the Enlightenment
... warmly welcomed by the society, rested on reason, virtue, justice, and tolerance, which reflected the common attitudes of burgher Germany towards apparently natural human inclinations.

Lessing’s “code of hope”, whose ideas developed in the “pre-critical” period of the Elightenment is based on trust in human ...
