The article is a revised version of a report prepared and read at the international scientific conference “What is a community? Social hermeneutics, power and media” (Belgorod, 2019). Changes’ took place that significantly clarify the very idea of the congress, its substantive content and historical relevance during the preparation for the publication of the following report materials within a few months (!). Communication as a living sense-forming beginning of the congress has been tested by the idea of social distance as some completely stable form of self-organization of the philosophical community. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the emergence of new conditions for its possibility: the personal turned out to be in some involuntary, “digital” identity with the public. It was impossible not to take these changes into account in the final edition of the text of the report, which included some additional semantic accents and historical in­formation. The presented material specifies the historical semantics of the idea of a philosophical congress, its substantive content and relevance. The article substantiates the understanding of the congress as a special, value-rich form of cognitive activism. The ethical and communicative meanings of the international philosophical congress are as a special or formative dialogic constellation of pro­fessional community, which does not require renouncing the individuality of each of the participants. It is thus important to suggest the moral prospects of the next VII Russian Philosophical Congress in probably an intensive connection with the renewal of value-epistemological attitudes and traditional technologies of philosophical education as an indispensable condition for the moral health of a philosophizing people.

Both Congressional parties compete to promote their own reputations while damaging the opposition party’s brand. This behavior affects both policy-making agendas and the party members’ communications with the media and constituents. While there has been ample study of partisan influence on legislative agenda-setting and roll call voting behavior, much less is known about the parties’ efforts to shape the public debate. This paper analyzes two strategic decisions of parties: the timing of collective efforts to influence the public policy debate and the substantive content of these “party messaging” events. These dynamics are analyzed using a unique dataset of 50,195 one-minute speeches delivered on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1989 to 2016. We find a pattern of strategic matching—both parties are more likely to engage in concurrent messaging efforts, often on the same issue.

The article substantiates the conceptual foundations of the transformation of the public service of Ukraine into the institution of social interaction as one of the most important conditions for overcoming the socio-economic crisis and effective implementation of social reforms. The paper analyzes the current state of crisis in which society and the institution of public service, as the main subject of formation and implementation of public development strategy. It is emphasized that the systemic crisis may well be the factor that changes the social system in the direction of reducing entropy and contributes to the restructuring of the format of the relationship between public service and society. Favorable factors have been identified that accelerate the achievement of a new qualitative state of organization and functioning of the public service in the process of overcoming the crisis. The necessity of cardinal institutional changes at the highest levels of state power, namely in the triangle "Verkhovna Rada – President – Cabinet of Ministers" is substantiated. Based on research conducted by the Razumkov Centre's sociological service from February 13 to 17, 2020, as well as from April 24 to 29, 2020 (by telephone interview), there is a significant decrease in the professionalism and quality of government institutions, which leads to a decline in public confidence. public service. Emphasis is placed on the need to amend the relevant laws of Ukraine, which will be the first step towards the preparation of a single integrated bill "On Public Service in Ukraine", which should introduce fundamental principles for the functioning of public service as an institution of public interaction. It is proved that the process of transformation of the public service of Ukraine into an institution of social interaction should take place at all levels of public power through constructive social self-organization and broad involvement of citizens in the management process. The role of leaders of territorial communities is highlighted, who on the basis of constant social dialogue and partnership with the community should ensure constructive social self-organization and minimize the consequences of the crisis.

As digital technologies develop, a new form of relations between the state and the public is developing as well. Additional opportunities for the expression of public interests and the establishment of values preferred by the society arise, new mechanisms of political mobilization develop, new forms of public organization and self-organization emerge, the social media gain more power, and local and general public narrative develop on a number of online platforms. With the digitization of the public space, the state is forced to change its communication strategies and improve the dialogue between the government and the society based on deliberative democracy principles. After analysing the architecture of public communication emerging in new conditions the paper concludes that Russia is making certain efforts to adapt for the new digitized reality. However, current state priorities are shifting towards e-government and the digital economy. On the one hand, it seems justified, as it allows to bring the public services to a completely new level, reduce corruption risks, and simplify state management of economic processes. On the other hand, the lack of due attention to the issues of openness of public administration and involvement of citizens in making public decisions results in accumulation of contradictions in the public area of public administration, as well as increasing mutual misunderstanding and distrust between the state bodies and the civil society, which may entail bursts of social discontent and protests.

This chapter discusses slavery in South Africa. Chattel slavery existed in early colonial South Africa from the inception of the Dutch permanent settlement in 1658 until formal emancipation of slaves in the British empire in the 1830s. More than 80,000 slaves were imported from throughout the Indian Ocean world during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Although in the time of apartheid this slave heritage was buried in the public consciousness, since the 1990s museums, historians, and archaeologists have unearthed and published a considerable historical record, endorsed by new heritage legislation which gives special value to sites of slavery. Slave history is taught in universities and schools. However, especially for those descended from slaves in the Western Cape region, the evocation of a slave past has been a vexed process, with slave heritage serving as both a resource and a weapon in contemporary identity struggles.

AbstractBBC Television's Horizon series, fifty years old on 2 May 2014, despite its significance to the history of the public culture of science, has been little studied. This microhistorical account follows the gestation and early years of the programme, demonstrating how it established a social and cultural account of science. This was a result of televisual factors, notably the determination to follow the format of the successful arts television programme Monitor. It illuminates how the processes of television production, with a handful of key participants – Aubrey Singer, Gerald Leach, Philip Daly, Gordon Rattray Taylor, Ramsay Short, Michael Peacock and Robert Reid – established the format of the programme. This occurred over seventeen months of prior preparation followed by three troubled years of seeking to establish a stable form. This was finally achieved in 1967 when the programme adopted a film documentary approach after extended attempts at making it as a studio-based magazine programme. The story has implications for understanding the social accounts of science that were circulating in the key decade of the 1960s.

The modularity logistics system is a new concept produced in network era of globalization. The modularity logistics systems have self-organization characteristic. Combining modularity theory with synergetics theory, the association between modularity logistics systems and logistics standardization system was analyzed. And from the self-organization’s point of view, analyzing the internal and external factors of modularity logistics systems, it was identified that the standardization degree and the modularity value of logistics systems are the order parameters among the co-evolutionary of modularity logistics systems. Finally, introducing synergetics to management science, the collaborative management model of modularity logistics systems is put forward based on the public information supporting platform.
