This paper responds to calls for greater empirical investigation of the interrelationships between depoliticisation and repoliticisation processes. It does so by applying the ‘three faces’ (governmental, societal and discursive) organising perspective to a longitudinal analysis of transport policy in the UK. This case is important because acceptance of the current dominant policy solution ‐ infrastructure spending ‐ appears to have come full circle over a 30-year period. The research finds that today’s focus on infrastructure is enabled through intersecting and reinforcing depoliticisation processes, supporting the ‘three faces’ perspective. However, the paper also highlights the need for greater recognition of the state as a meta-governor of depoliticisation and the need for clarity on which aspect of a policy solution or problem (or the connections between them) is being depoliticised and repoliticised to better elucidate politicisation processes.

The chapter critically analyzes the role played by the state in the global justice debate. It surveys the different ways in which statists and cosmopolitans invoke the state either to justify the scope and content of their preferred principles of justice or to explain how such principles might be realized. The chapter also distinguishes between two conceptualizations of the state: as a system of institutions and as an agent in its own right. On the basis of this analysis, the authors conclude that both at the level of justification and at that of realization, the most plausible positions with respect to global justice lie somewhere in between full-blown cosmopolitanism and full-blown statism. While principles of egalitarian justice are not confined to the state, they do not extend in identical form to the global realm. Similarly, while the state—as we know it—is insufficient to realize plausible principles of justice (be they statist or cosmopolitan), what realizing justice requires falls short of the creation of a comprehensive global sovereign.

Economic security constitutes one of the main areas of research carried out by representatives of security studies. Its level is conditioned by many factors of economic, political, law or cultural character. The article points out the conditions connected with the process of climate warming and their meaning for shaping the economic security. As a hypothesis it has been assumed that it is crucial to make a significant change in the scope of shaping the consumption model and the role of the state in shaping the processes of development. It serves the creation of economic force with a simultaneous balanced approach to the use of natural resources. The article has a review character, it's aim is to indicate the necessity of a change into the more active role of the state in shaping the security and economic order. In this context, the use of works developed by the Swedish school of economy and Scandinavian studies over peace (including mainly the peace economics) can become the basis to create the development model which uses the approach that connects the economic, natural and institutional interests. The creation of economic security bases of a state must, in a pragmatic and responsible way, include the limitation of natural resources and at the same time take into account the social aims connected with the quality of people’s lives.

This article examines the role of the State Chancellery in the creation of the Fundamental Laws of 1906. It establishes that the draft of the Fundamental Laws prepared by the chancellery was discussed in March 1906 by the Council of Ministers under the chairmanship of Sergei Iul’evich Witte, and it was discussed again in April 1906 by a Special Convocation under the chairmanship of Emperor Nicholas II. The article draws on new sources to establish the personnel involved in meetings of high-ranking officials within the State Chancellery in January 1906, and to trace their discussions of drafts of the Fundamental Laws prepared by P.A. Kharitonov, A. P. Salomon and Count A. F. Geiden. On the basis of this evidence, the article suggests that debates over the Fundamental Laws intensified the ongoing process of political differentiation within the upper bureaucracy connected with the reforms of 1905 – 1906.
