Social Subordination

The article studies social norms as a special kind of determinants of public consciousness and finds that in modern society there is an institutional distribution of normative systems that legitimize power. At the same time, formal institutions are normalized by law, informal ones are normalized by morality. Normative determination in most developed countries of the world has a rational formal legal nature and is made up of value regulators of world pictures, regulators of social subordination and hierarchy, and regulators of behavior. It is shown that the political practices of our time presuppose continuous interaction between society and the institutions of power, the search for legitimate practices, a single, least contradictory social request that this power is able to satisfy.

The article is devoted to an analysis of the creative work of the Russian philosopher Valery Podoroga. It focuses on the special discipline he created, namely, “analytical anthropology”, and the book “Anthropograms”, in which Valery Podoroga sets out the basic principles and analytical tools of his philosophical work. Examining the books of the philosopher that preceded the creation of analytical anthropology and those that were written later, it is possible to single out two important lines of his research. First, the philosophy of literature and second, research in the field of the political. Podoroga’s understanding of literature is broader than that of a cultural practice or a social institution. For him, it is the space of the corporal experience of contact with the world, in which the affective aspect of thinking is realized. This line of analysis points to the “poetic” dimension of the experience of thinking, since the emphasis here is on what Jakobson called the “poetic function of language”, its orientation toward itself. It is precisely the literary aspect that becomes important when analyzing the texts of philosophers (Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger); however, what is even more important is that in the very experience of fiction Podoroga is trying to find new means for philosophy. His “poetic line” is closely connected with the poetics of space (Bachelard) and the phenomenology of the body (Merleau-Ponty, Henry). It is the combination of poetics and phenomenology that allows Podoroga to overcome both the orientation of poetics exclusively toward language and the categorical apparatus of philosophy. The main result of Valery Podoroga’s work is the creation of an “anthropogram”, a special kind of scheme in which the action of the Work (a literary work, but not only) is immanent to the dynamics of the world. Is it possible to create such anthropograms outside the field of literature? Podoroga does not specify. The article attempts to show how Podoroga’s ways of working with literary texts correlate with his works dealing with the technologies of power and violence, transforming separate political and ethical terms into anthropograms, that is, forms of thought immanent to life itself.

In their rapidity and chaotic character, the changes Kazakstan is experiencing create a kind of kaleidoscope. The very act of creating a state was both dramatic and unexpected. In the course of five years, referendums and changes of constitution and parliament have occurred. This calls for an attempt to etch the general line of development: whence, how and whither is the society of Kazakstan going. Such a broad approach proceeds necessarily from the premise that the modern world consists of a dense network of interrelations, into which all societies and peoples on the planet are drawn. This article examines the problem of the modern geopolitical self-determination of Kazakstan from the point of view of the Steppe and of its contribution to political traditions of the world.

In the article, the author comments on the concept of communication. Opinions are expressed about the place of information technologies in the formation of public consciousness today. It raises questions about the global development of the Internet, its impact on the integrity of not only one state, but also the world, the benefits and harms. Currently, in the era of progressive development of scientific technologies, the concept of communication has become not just an obsessive, but a subconscious concept. The translation of this term from the Latin communicatio comes in the sense that communicatio is universal. In a broad sense, it can be interpreted as ways and channels of communication with the ability to perceive and distribute various information. We should know that communication is not only an object of several social disciplines, but also an object of exact sciences.

The combination of arterial hypertension (AH) and obesity is the focus of modern medicine due to the high prevalence of this phenomenon in modern society, an increased risk of cardiovascular complications, diabetes mellitus (DM) and premature death [1, 2, 3]. According to the World Health Organization, about 30% of the world population, of which 16.8% - 14.9% and women - men who are overweight [1] .In the present time for a more accurate designation of high cardiovascular risk patients with a typical combination of hypertension with abdominal obesity (AO), impaired glucose tolerance, and dyslipidemia, in clinical practice is widely used term "metabolic syndrome" (MS). The prevalence of MS in the population of developed countries, according to various estimates, ranging from 10 to 30%. According to special studies in patients with MS significantly increased risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cardiovascular and total death [4, 5.6]. Isolation of this syndrome as a stable combination of several risk factors and occur when insulin sensitivity is of great practical importance. Changing lifestyles and adequate therapy can completely eliminate MS. This significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular complications and diabetes [1, 2, 3]. To determine the true prevalence of MS in the population requires a fairly high costs associated with the need for appropriate laboratory studies. At the same time, the main, essentially obligate, namely a MS component AB, which may be readily determined by physical examination [7].

By Western economists led to criticism of the crisis inform of "today's form of capitalism, can’t establish compliance with the changing world". The economic model based on the Balance of Imbalance is scheduled to sleep period in future years of the world management system. The sleeping process has been completed by the broken Balance of Imbalance. The process of planning in the field of application and the name given is crisis. This process should have a philosophy that mobilizing the internal dynamics of the economy. At the same time this crisis shown that money-driven economy conversion process is necessity in capitalism. The process of falling asleep economic model, in other words, the output from the crisis, not the money lead the economy but the economy lead the money. Transformation process will be realized at some point. In this study, it is introduced the philosophy of the crisis, in order to put into action the inner dynamics of capitalism’s legal infrastructure, the political preferences of the founders of the political game and to pass system into sleeping process the necessity of the transformation an economic model to the upper structure have been identified.

The One

The "world view" influences the basic determination of man to the extent that all phenomena and events, all scientific problematizations and socio-cultural processes and, not least, human existence itself are networked into a coordinating system which is enmeshed in the "here present" or in the "otherworldly". Knowing one’s enmeshment in the otherworldly offers to man the possibility to experience in a specific manner the dangers and the risks of human existence and not to take the world as the only reality. Christianity demythologized the world and with the Biblical creative injunction addressed to man to subjugate the Earth it contributed to progress as a path of discovering and controlling the world. However, regardless of the nature of security within the world, progress is immanently prone to risk ("the remaining risk"). The loss of the otherworldly in modern society, on the one hand, contributes to the growing attenuation of endangerment of life but, on the other, man is becoming more and more insecure despite the enormous efforts devoted to security. This can ultimately lead to a point where "progress" is experienced as a power which endangers security and which needs to be curtailed.

Stages of model formation and "green" economy concept in the context of socio-technogenic develop-ment of the world are considered. It is revealed that in the second half of the XX century the interconnected changes in economy and nature generated the interest in formation in the world of environmental economics, searching ways of steady co-evolutional social natural development. It has predetermined the lines of interna-tional cooperation within the UN International Confe-rence on environmental and development matters (1972, 1992, 2002, 2012, 2015, etc.). The conferences served to establish the interrelation of social, economic and ecological factors, to emphasize the importance of interaction of the country governments, business and public organizations in achievement of global ecologi-cal efficiency, the formation of ecologically focused model of economy adopted in the 21st century as a model of "green" economy. However, despite the in-ternational activity of the countries, science and busi-ness, a comprehensive scientific analysis showed dis-appointing results of strengthening modern degradation processes in biosphere. The "green" industrial revolu-tion which is developed now in the world is intended to connect the potential of economic growth with inten-tions of essential reduction of load on the planet eco-systems. It is proved that "green" economy model which is actively spread in industrially developed countries of the world combines a limited economic growth and safe, careful attitude to natural processes. Using the methodology of the system socio-natural approach (overcoming a narrow framework of a socio-economic research method) it is defined that "green" economic activity is implemented due to development of the innovative technologies and technosphere sub-stances developed according to market laws in accor-dance with corporate business interests. The conclusion is drawn that expansion of artificial processes and sub-stances due to technocratic-cantered liberal economic activity leads to increase of technogenesis of socio-biospheric evolution to more distancing of modern society from natural environment. Therefore the world community when developing programs of a new "green" paradigm of economic activity (as part of the concept of sustainable development) needs to prove exhaustively scientifically how socially and economi-cally responsible and whenever possible with the min-imum damage to the biosphere to combine expansion of technogenic processes with the developing natural life.

The “digital environment” is perceived as a new situation in the political consciousness of the society, as well as a source of xenophobia in politics. In the context of political uncertainty in the world, journalism is becoming a vehicle for spreading cyberphobia – a new type of social fear. Cyberphobia is understood as a natural reaction of public consciousness to the intensification of new types of crimes against the individual and society with the use of “digital” technologies. The new informational reality has predetermined cyberthreats that appeared in the media leading to the most dangerous social phobia. This, for instance, has been combined with the idea of the “Russian hacker” and his personification as the world Evil.

Severe outbreaks of infectious disease occur throughout the world with some reaching the level of an international pandemic: Coronavirus (COVID-19) is the most recent to do so. As such pandemics cause extensive loss of lives, hamper industrial operations, and cause economic losses in both developing and developed countries, it is critical to establish common standards of accuracy in the determination and reporting of cases. In particular, there are current concerns that countries are hiding or incorrectly reporting cases of COVID-19. In this paper, we set out a mechanism for using Zipf's law to establish the accuracy of international reporting of COVID-19 cases via a determination of whether an individual country's COVID-19 reporting follows a power-law for confirmed, recovered, and death cases. We observe that the probability of Zipf's law (P-values) for COVID-19 confirmed cases show that Uzbekistan has the highest P-value of 0.940, followed by Belize (0.929), and Qatar (0.897). For COVID-19 recovered cases, Iraq had the highest P-value of 0.901, followed by New Zealand (0.888), and Austria (0.884). Furthermore, for COVID-19 death cases, Bosnia and Herzegovina had the highest P-value of 0.874, followed by Lithuania (0.843), and Morocco (0.825). China, where the COVID-19 pandemic began, is a significant outlier in recording P-values lower than 0.1 for the confirmed, recovered, and death cases. This raises important questions, not only for China but also any country whose data exhibits P-values below this threshold. The main application of this work is to serve as an early warning for the World Health Organization (WHO) and other health regulatory bodies to perform more investigations in countries where COVID-19 datasets deviate significantly from Zipf's law. To this end, we also provide a tool for illustrating Zipf's law P-values on a global map in order to report anomalies.
