The book entitled "Filsafat Ilmu: Menelurusi Jejak Integrasi Filsafat, Sains, dan Sufisme (Philosophy of Science: Tracing the Paths of Integration of Philosophy, Science and Sufism)" has a total page of 192 pages with very dense and concise content in both language and weight. This book was written by Dr. Asep Salahudin, who is vice-chancellor of IAILM Suryalaya academic years 2016-2020, chairman of West Java PWNU Lakpesdam 2017-2021, lecturer at FIS Unpad and Postgraduate UIN Bandung, and Expert Staff of the Presidential Work Unit for Pancasila Ideology Development 2017-2018. He also received many awards and written works, with one of the recently published books being this book itself. The book written by Asep Salahudin has ten chapters, most of which contain philosophy from an Islamic point of view, while the rest are explanations of philosophy in general. Thus, the author divides into two parts of ten chapters, namely the first five chapters contain a description of philosophy in general which consists of chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6, while the last five chapters are chapters 4, 7, 8, 9, and 10 contains about philosophy from an Islamic perspective applied by previous Islamic philosophers. The purpose of writing this book is to answer matters related to knowledge requirements to become science and to make Islamic philosophy revive in today's modern era, as it was at the peak of its previous glory. As a result of this goal, the book written by Asep Salahudin discusses the general version of the philosophy of science and the Islamic version of the philosophy of science. This general version of the philosophy of science explains the general picture of philosophy itself, including the history of its development altogether. In contrast, this Islamic version of the philosophy of science explains philosophy from the perspective of Islamic philosophers, including criticizing western philosophical thought. Therefore, the purpose of writing this book is to describe the general version of the philosophy of science and Islam, which aims to make Islamic philosophy return to its previous heyday.

AbstractThis paper reconstructs Ruskin’s work from the perspective of the landscape, building upon the assumption that Modern Painters played a cardinal role in the emancipation of the genre. This reconstruction is complicated by the internal contradictions within the work: it cannot be regarded as a systematic work of philosophy, but belongs rather to the genre of sage writing. In volume I, Ruskin approached the landscape not from an aesthetic point of view, but from the direction of scientific truth. The aesthetic consequence of this was his anti-mimetic attitude, which differentiated between the imitation of nature and the uncovering of the truths of nature, and in this respect, he considered Turner the greatest master who had ever lived. Truth takes precedence over all aesthetic considerations, and for this reason Ruskin was resolutely against artistic tradition. Seen from his perspective, the history of landscape painting appeared as a series of scientific illustrations, which, with the forward march of science, came ever closer to truth-to-nature. The other two essential conditions of art, the other side of truth, were its moral and religious messages. Beauty is the work of God, and God must be praised in His work, in Nature. Only later did Ruskin introduce a historical dimension to the experience of the landscape. The modern era is characterised by the rise of the pre-eminent interest in the landscape, accompanied by a parallel decreasing interest in gods, saints, ancestors and humans. This later became the main motif of Ruskin’s activities as a social critic and reformer. In relation to the loss of faith and the prospect of regaining it, Ruskin saw landscape painting as the representative art of the modern era. In the later volumes of Modern Painters, Ruskin carefully distinguished between the task of science, which is to investigate the essence and uncover the truths of material nature, and the task of art, which is to explore the possible viewpoints or aspects of material nature. In volume V of Modern Painters he firmly asserted – in diametric contradiction to his earlier views – that the greatness and truth of Turner did not rest on scientific truth, for in this respect the artist was completely ignorant. This paper interprets and evaluates Ruskin’s extraordinarily harsh criticism of Claude Lorrain, which contrasts with the fact that Turner spent almost his entire life idolising and attempting to rival Claude.

The article discusses matters concerning place by way of three prose poems byDanish writer Louis Jensen. The readings understand place by way of the neighbouring concepts of landscape and space. They set out from a phenomenological understanding of place, presenting basic insights of this approach (especially using the works of Edward S. Casey) and proceeds by way of the challenges given by the prose poems to a critique of phenomenological place theory. The critique points out that it tends to marginalize historic and semiotic aspects of place and questions its insistence on continuity between experience and knowledge. Instead the article suggests that a global sense of place involves discontinuity between place and space, and further more it is argued that the idea in Casey that place has been overruled by space in the modern era, might by correct from the point of view of philosophy, but it is not in accordance with the history of art and literature.

This study is devoted to the work of the Dagestan prose writer, people's writer of Dagestan, playwright Magomed-Sultan Yakhyaev (1922-2006). The purpose of the article is to introduce into scientific circulation information about the diaries of the writer who kept them for more than half a century and to analyze the specifics of the diary genre in the work of the classic of Dagestan Soviet literature, to characterize his attitude to the events of the post-Soviet period, worldview evolution. Since M-S. Yakhyaev devoted his work mainly to the genre of the historical novel, his approaches to assessing the modern era are of interest both from the point of view of studying the work of the author himself, and from the point of view of reflecting the views of the older generation of Russian society on the era of Boris Yeltsin's rule. The diaries have not been published anywhere, their existence was not known until now, they were found on the author's heirs. The material is of interest to biographers and literary scholars dealing with the problems of Dagestan literature. The biographical and historical-literary value of the new genre in the writer's work is substantiated, which makes it possible to see the refraction of the modern history of Russia in the work and worldview of the classic writer of Dagestan literature of the Soviet period; the genre specificity of diaries is revealed M.-S. Yakhyaev.

The article examines the philosophical discussions at the Faculty of Philosophy of Leningrad State University during the Khrushchev “thaw”, initiated by the need to study the phenomenon of science and resulted in the organization of the Leningrad philosophical school. Having analyzed the issues brought up by the Leningrad philosophers and the research methodology they used, the authors conclude that this school mainly developed problems of science philosophy. Therefore, the definition of the Leningrad school as an ontological one (as op­posed to the Moscow gnoseological school), which is widespread in Russian his­torical and philosophical literature, is far from being correct. Moreover, it makes it difficult to see the relevance of the philosophical achievements of the Lenin­grad thinkers since it provokes to consider their ideas exclusively in the context of the disputes around the definition of matter, which took place among the theo­rists of dialectical materialism in Soviet times. On the contrary, considering the works written by the Leningrad philosophers in the 1950s–1960s from the point of view of the current philosophy of science allows us to better understand the philosophical innovations and original ideas of the Leningrad school. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the views of V.I. Svidersky and V.A. Shtoff, the founders of the Leningrad school of philosophy of science. The authors also consider the works of A.D. Aleksandrov, rector of Leningrad State University (1952–1964), and those of the deans of the Faculty of Philosophy of Leningrad State University V.P. Tugarinov (1951–1960) and V.P. Rozhin (1960–1969), who contributed to the popularization of scientific-philosophical doctrines at the uni­versity and helped to organize candid discussions. The views of some other Leningrad philosophers of science, e.g. A.S. Mamzin, L.O. Reznikov, G.A. Pod­korytov, V.P. Bransky, A.S. Carmin, are mentioned as well to trace back the de­velopment of the Leningrad school.

The attempts to reconstruct the instruments of interbudget relations take place in all federations. In Russia such attempts are especially popular due to the short history of intergovernmental relations. Thus the review of the ¬international experience of managing interbudget relations to provide economic and social welfare can be useful for present-day Russia. The author develops models of intergovernmental relations from the point of view of making decisions about budget authorities’ distribution. The models that can be better applied in the Russian case are demonstrated.
