AbstractThe conceptual apparatus referred to generally as agency-structure or agency-institution is central to a great deal of social science, especially Institutional Economics. Despite its centrality, this apparatus has never been able to fully explain how institutions and social structures influence agents' intentions and actions. Economist, Geoff Hodgson and Sociologist, Margaret Archer have been at the forefront of endeavours to provide such an explanation. Section 1 of this paper elaborates upon Hodgson's ideas on institutional rules, habits, habituation, and the notion of reconstitutive downward causation. Section 2 elaborates upon Archer's ideas on structures, reflexive deliberation and the notion of an internal domain of mental primacy, and ends with a critical look at Archer's (brief) comments on rules and habits. The conclusion shows how a more nuanced understanding of structures, institutions, agency, habits, and deliberation, can inform research into a specific area, namely the analysis of labour markets.

Based on the conducted research, the article proposes and substantiates an innovative thesis about the possibility and need to consider and utilize the phenomenon of happiness as an independent factor of strengthening the national security of modern Russia. Such an interpretation is based on the analysis of the influence of other (positive and negative) factors on its development, consideration of the theoretical foundations of the institution of national security and its priorities, and the results of foreign and Russian research on security and happiness indicating not only the contradictions between them but also the deep reasons that unite them in nature. In practice, improving the quality of security in all areas is associated with the mandatory transition of activities ensuring it to the controlled positive development of the entire system and each of its elements and the creation of conditions for the satisfaction of the human need for happiness in any threatening conditions of the internal and external life. Such a perspective is considered in the context of the relevance and peculiarities of the felicitous approach to understanding and achieving the strategic role, goals, and applied objectives of the Russian state in the form of higher education. Meanwhile, education itself is viewed not only as an instrument of state policy but also as an effective area for its modernization synchronized with the demand for human development as a measure of true happiness and the security of society and the state. In this context, special attention is given to students as the subjects and objects of the problems of meeting the need for happiness and security. The article discloses the features of the existing and promising pedagogical conditions and models for the implementation of the felicitous approach allowing graduates to become potential carriers of harmonization of activities of a citizen, society, and state institutions in the interests of national security.

Rules Of The Game

This essay identifies six navigational capacities or contextual formative abilities that young people in Southern contexts, and those who care about them, may find helpful to debate and nurture. These navigational capacities are the capacity (1) to act alone as an individual in a community; (2) to aspire beyond culturally bounded horizons without resorting to exit, apathy, or violent struggles; (3) to acquire a range of capitals that include money, networks, dignity, and a knowledge of the rules of the game; (4) to recognize and analyze the influence of social structures and policies on their lives; (5) to achieve open identities to ensure justice along multiple axes of oppression; and (6) to act collectively in pursuit of better lives for self and others. The idea of navigational capacities acknowledges that adversity, change, and movement are a constant feature of the landscape of youth in the Global South. Thus, developing flexible capacities—rather than hard skills, rigid assets, or only adaptive resilience—is a more helpful goal for youth development. The essay describes these capacities, their theoretical foundations, and potential as a framework for practice and analysis in youth work and youth studies research in the Global South.

This paper describes the role played by anthropogenic ecological degradation in the evolution of world-systems over the past twelve thousand years. We have developed a conceptual apparatus for comparing workd-systems in order to better understand how fundamental transformations in systemic logic occur. When properlyconceptualized and bounded, we can compare earlier, smaller regional systems with the modem global system. This enables us to comprehend how the size and nature of world-systems have changed. Ourr model of world-systems evolution incorporates the important world of anthropologists on population pressure and ecological degradation. The expanding scale of world- systems corrceponds to the expanding scale of ecological degradation, so that, though institutional developments have temporarily overcome the constraints of demography and ecology, in the long run more complex systems face the same problems that smaller and simpler systems faced. Thus procsses of ecological depletion have long been central in the evolution of social structures and are likely to continue to be so in the future.
