In the context of the formation of civil society in modern Russia with the traditionally significant role of the state, the problem of studying the inclusion of young people in a particular model of the relationship between these two institutions is of particular relevance. This choice will determine a certain type of political system in Russia in the future. The purpose of the study is to identify empirically groups of young people who are determined by the direction of value orientations in public life and their involvement in various models of interaction between the state and civil society. The empirical basis of the study was a project conducted in 2019 by Saint Petersburg State University and Altai State University to study the political consciousness of Russian youth. As a result of using multidimensional methods of analysis, the connection between the involvement of the citizen-state models and the types of value orientations of Russian youth is revealed. Four groups of young people were obtained, stratified by value orientations, the specifics of relations between the state and citizens of our country, and the choice of the preferred type of state to live in.

This chapter discusses how the ‘stickler-enjoining’ account of equity has important limits. While many distinctive doctrines of equity can be understood to limit stickler behaviour, equity in fact often turns a blind eye to, and sometimes even enables, stickler behaviour. One can sort cases in which equity restrains sticklers from those in which it is indifferent to stickler behaviour if one attends to the role of the state in private litigation. Sometimes the state’s responsibilities require it to protect plaintiffs against sticklers. Other times, it requires it to protect the stickler, as a means, for example, of keeping as open as possible each person’s sphere of choices. Ultimately, the self-regarding account of equity sheds light on the question of the relationship between equity and justice: from the distinct perspective of the judgment, sometimes equitable justice is better than legal justice and sometimes legal justice is better than equitable justice.

The current American debate about the relationship between business and government represents the most significant reopening of that issue since the New Deal. The debate is in part about government's role in the economy, but the issue of business's role in politics is being joined as well, joined in fact on several fronts. There are, of course, the polemics of corporations and their critics, in which business is cast alternately as victim and villain. The issue also divides more serious students of American politics and has fostered a wealth of theorizing about the role of the state. Finally, the issue of business influence pervades discussions about campaign finance.

AbstractSince colonial times to the present day, Hong Kong's position as a global financial centre is one of the enduring economic strengths of the territory. This success is often attributed to the distinctive role of the state, coined in the 1970s by the-then financial secretary, Sir Philip Haddon-Cave, as “positive non-interventionism.” The relationship between the market and the state has also been characterized as a form of corporatism, particularly in the financial sector as bankers were able to influence policy. However, closer examination of the behind-the-scenes relations between bankers and the state reveals a much more complex relationship, with the banks seeking protection that the government was not willing to provide. Moreover, the reluctance to regulate financial markets resulted in piecemeal interventions and weak implementation that undermined the stability of this sector and of the economy as a whole. This paper demonstrates the confusion over the concept and practicalities of positive non-interventionism, even for Haddon-Cave, and how the concept evolved towards a policy of “when in doubt, do nothing” during a period of financial instability. Along the way, the paper presents new evidence about the origins of Hong Kong's current banking structure.

The purpose of the article was to classify and analyze the economic risks of language policy in Russia in the context of the peculiarities of the language culture of young people, as well as their ideas about the place and role of the Russian language in the economic development of Russia. The systemic nature of these risks, as well as the post-fundamentalist interpretation of political philosophy, allowed us to single out and classify the external and internal risks of language policy, as well as talk about the internal risks of language policy not only in the aspect of public policy (policy level), but also in the aspect of public activity and initiative (political level). It was revealed that the key problem of external risk management is the lack of certainty of the functional role of the Russian language. The key problem of managing internal risks is to change the emphasis of language policy from preserving the language situation to increasing human economic well-being, reducing language barriers as economic barriers. The fundamental problem of Russian language policy lies in the absolutization of the role of the state and its policy and insufficient attention to non-state actors, public organizations, communities and social groups as subjects of language policy. A reflection of the general inconsistency of modern Russian language policy is the state and peculiarities of the economic consciousness of young people, the study of which was undertaken by us in the aspect of the attitude and interpretation of foreign economic vocabulary by young people in Russian. It was found that, on the one hand, Russian youth demonstrates a positive attitude towards the possibility of finding and implementing Russian equivalents of foreign economic terms and concepts, and on the other hand, the study recorded an increase in skepticism towards this as young people grow up and are included in work and business. At the same time, it was revealed the importance of the educational sphere and the media as mediums for the transformation of language culture and tools of language policy.

O presente estudo analisa a relação entre educação, formação humana e Estado. O recorte histórico abrange a segunda metade do século XX até a contemporaneidade. Entendendo haver forte interligação nesta tríade e indagamo-nos sobre como tem ocorrido a referida relação. Qual o papel do Estado e da educação na formação humana? Quais ideologias têm influenciado o tipo de educação ofertada? A partir deste tema e questionamentos o artigo foi estruturado em quatro seções. Na primeira delas, discutimos sobre como as relações humanas ocorrem na sociedade atual. Após, analisamos o papel assumido pelo Estado perante a economia e as suas influências na educação, perscrutando a formação humana neste processo. Na terceira seção, abordamos o modo como a educação tem sido apropriada por grupos hegemônicos, os quais assumem as técnicas próprias do mercado e os valores da ideologia liberal para organizar a estrutura e as práticas educacionais. Na última seção, abordamos os sentidos dados pelos atores educacionais às suas práticas, dadas as influências externas ao campo educacional. Em meio a essas transformações, os referidos sentidos estão relacionados à capacidade de resposta daqueles sujeitos educacionais. A finalização aponta para o fato de que a tríade educação, Estado e formação humana tem sido ressignificada de forma cíclica, influenciando a direção para a formação humana inscrita nos processos de oferta da educação formal. No contexto complexo de influências liberais e luta pela hegemonia, os reflexos exteriores à essência dessa formação humana podem ser interpretados e adequados para que a educação não seja alterada.Palavras-chave: Formação humana. Educação. Estado. Education, human formation and state in the contemporaneity: brief reflectionsABSTRACTThe present study analyzes the relationship among education, human formation and State. The historical cut spans the second half of the 20th century until the contemporaneity. Understanding that there is a strong interconnection in this triad, we wonder how has been occurring the cited relationship. Which is the role of the State and of the education in the human formation? Which ideologies have been influencing the type of education to be offered? From this theme and questionings, the article was structured in four sections. In the first we report how the human relationships occur in today’s society; in the second, we analyze the role taken by the State in front of the economy and its influences in education, peering the human formation in this process. In the third we approach the way how the education has been appropriated by hegemonic groups, which take their own techniques of the marketing and the values of this liberal ideology to organize the structure and the educational practices. In the last and fourth section, we approach the question of the meanings given by the educational actors to their practices due to external influences and to the educational field. In the midst to these transformations the cited meanings are related to the capacity of answer of those educational subjects. The conclusion points to the fact that the triad – education, State and human formation – has been given new meaning in a cyclic way, influencing the direction to the human formation inscribed in the processes of offer of formal education. In the complex context of liberal influences and fight by hegemony, the external refl exes to the essence of this human formation can be interpreted and suitable in order that the education does not be altered.Keywords: Human formation.

Abstract: Positive obligations of States to protect and implement human rights are considered a part of various effects of human rights in legislations. In this article, it is argued that a crucial problem arises from the inconsistent practice of addressing violations of human rights committed by juristic persons together with a lack of underlying general theory of liability for human rights violations committed by private entities. Without a major change in the legal doctrine and case-law, we will need to remain focused on the role of the State as a guarantor of human rights, rather than on the imposition of human rights obligations on private-law entities. In this article, it is argued that the nature of the relationship between a juristic person and the State is not the only relevant aspect, as we should also examine the activity of the juristic person in question.Keywords: Positive obligations of States. Juristic persons. State-juristic person nexus. Fundamental rights. Horizontal effect.Resumo: Obrigações estatais positivas de proteger e de implementar direitos humanos são parte dos vários efeitos dos direitos humanos nas legislações nacionais. Neste artigo, argumenta-se que um problema crucial decorre da prática de abordar violações de direitos humanos cometidas por pessoas jurídicas sem uma teoria geral da responsabilidade por violações de direitos humanos cometidas por entidades privadas. Sem uma mudança importante na doutrina e na jurisprudência será preciso permanecer olhando apenas para o papel do Estado como garantidor de direitos humanos. Neste artigo argumenta-se que a natureza da relação entre uma pessoa jurídica e o Estado não é o único aspecto relevante. É preciso examinar também a atividade da pessoa jurídica em questão.Palavras-chave: Obrigações positivas dos Estados. Pessoas jurídicas.
