Theoretical Foundations

The theoretical provisions of social psychoanalysis are based on the consideration of the following basic components of the psyche: consciousness and unconscious, individual and collective unconscious, social unconscious. Sigmund Freud one of the first has been researched internal incentives, under the influence of which, all mental human`s processes come into effect, which determine the motivational structure of human behavior. Through the prism of unconscious appetence, he tried to consider as the behavior of an individual person and the whole history of the development of humanity. Unconscious in Carl Jung’s understanding acquires a new meaning: it relates with historical and spiritual layers of humanity experience. It was Z. Freud and C. Jung who formulated the basic theoretical principles of social psychoanalysis about the “deep” and “peak” motivation of human behavior.

Original Classification

The review considers the first attempt in the history of Russian economic thought to give a detailed analysis of informal institutions (IF). It recognizes that in general it was successful: the reader gets acquainted with the original classification of institutions (including informal ones) and their genesis. According to the reviewer the best achievement of the author is his interdisciplinary approach to the study of problems and, moreover, his bias on the achievements of social psychology because the model of human behavior in the economic mainstream is rather primitive. The book makes evident that namely this model limits the ability of economists to analyze IF. The reviewer also shares the author’s position that in the analysis of the IF genesis the economists should highlight the uncertainty and reject economic determinism. Further discussion of IF is hardly possible without referring to this book.

Sabina Spielrein

This chapter explores the gradual emergence of the notion of the unconscious as it pertains to the tradition that runs from Arthur Schopenhauer via Eduard von Hartmann and Philipp Mainländer to Sabina Spielrein, C. G. Jung, and Sigmund Freud. A particular focus is put on the popularization of the term “unconscious” by von Hartmann and on the history of the death drive, which has Schopenhauer’s essay “Transcendent Speculation on the Apparent Deliberateness in the Fate of the Individual” as one of its precursors. In this essay, Schopenhauer develops speculatively the notion of a universal, intelligent, supraindividual unconscious—an unconscious with a purpose related to death. But the death drive also owes its origins to Schopenhauer’s “relative nothingness,” which Mainländer adopts into his philosophy as “absolute nothingness” resulting from the “will to death.” His philosophy emphasizes death as the goal of the world and its inhabitants. This central idea had a distinctive influence on the formation of the idea of the death drive, which features in Freud’s Beyond the Pleasure Principle.

History Of Subjectivity

This article studies selected works of Gustav Mahler and Sigmund Freud as enacting the history of subjectivity as a problematic narrative of the deconstruction and construction of identity. It views Mahler and Freud's cultural productions as historically parallel examples of a certain way of imagining human subjectivity as a reflective activity. It studies their ideas on identity as a form of assimilation, and looks at how their “works” took a turn towards subjectivity. The article shows that Freud, Mahler, and their modernist contemporaries did not opt to live in their songs and selves, but instead found a new way to imagine the relations among individuals.

Conscious Belief

Institutional racism is a social unconscious process. It is the collective operation of shared unconscious assumptions and values that exist in groupings and cultures such as group analytic institutions where individuals may consciously believe they are not racist. In such cultures this conscious belief is protected by unconscious processes of denial, avoidance and negation. Attempts to address the issue within group analysis reveal some of its problematic dynamics.

Choosing solutions under risk and uncertainty requires the consideration of several factors. One of the main factors in choosing a solution is modeling the decision maker’s attitude to risk. The expected utility theory was the first approach that allowed to correctly model various nuances of the attitude to risk. Further research in this area has led to the emergence of even more effective approaches to solving this problem. Currently, the most developed theory of choice with respect to decisions under risk conditions is the cumulative prospect theory. This paper presents the development history of various extensions of the original expected utility theory, and the analysis of the main properties of the cumulative prospect theory. The main result of this work is a fuzzy version of the prospect theory, which allows handling fuzzy values of the decisions (prospects). The paper presents the theoretical foundations of the proposed version, an illustrative practical example, and conclusions based on the results obtained.

The article studies theoretical foundations for the essence of entrepreneurship and entrepreneur; specifics in defining the concept of “entrepreneur” by representatives of economic schools; four stages of formation of the theories of entrepreneurship, where the characteristic features of the entrepreneur that changed under the influence of socio-economic development (external environment) are analyzed. Based on the economic characteristics of changes in the development of macro and micro levels, the emergence of new types of entrepreneurial activity – startups – is justified; a startup is defined as a fast-growing entity of small innovative entrepreneurship with a short-term history of operations, which operates in conditions of uncertainty and aims to create a fundamentally new product to meet the specific needs of consumers. The logic of forming of the concept of entrepreneur-startupper in the structural scheme is substantiated; the characteristic of a startuper as a peculiar combination of transformed traits of an entrepreneur in accordance to the stages of development of the theory of entrepreneurship is given; the characteristic features of the startupper are revealed; the peculiarities of the functioning of startups in Ukraine are analyzed. The characteristic of the special features of the startup entrepreneur is offered; further study of theories of entrepreneurship in accordance to the trends of the global economy under uncertainty, as well as the study of the features of development and functioning of new business entities – startups as a solution for unmet consumer needs and how to use modern technologies to create a new product, are justified.

AbstractThis paper seeks to reconstruct philosopher Aleksandr Bogdanov’s approach to the philosophy of Spinoza in the context of the debate against Plekhanov. I demonstrate that the Soviet interest in Spinoza’s theory has never been purely historical, but rather, it served an important function in developing the theoretical foundations for Marxist philosophy. However, Bogdanov was one of only a very few who objected strongly to Plekhanov’s attempt to relate Spinoza’s philosophy to Marxism in a direct way. Two principles underlie Bogdanov’s critique: one being methodological, the other—systematic. The methodological principle has a hermeneutical character, since it demands that we treat historical concepts by taking into account their context and their changes during the time. According to Bogdanov, failing to fulfil this principle results in the dogmatization and instrumentalization of philosophy, and transforms it into political doctrine. The systematic principle concerns Bogdanov’s radical rethinking of the relationship between extension and thought. I argue that by rethinking Spinoza’s concepts in the framework of “ideo-empirical parallelism”, Bogdanov develops his own theory of cognition, which he called “empiriomonism”. When considered in historical context, I argue that these debates can serve as a window into the foundational role the Spinoza’s philosophy has played in the formation of different versions of Russian Marxism, as well as in the development of Russian Marxism in general.

<div class="Section1"><p class="Iabstrak"><strong>Abstract:</strong> <em>Understanding of the historiography of HAMKA cannot be separated from the understanding of the three elements that underlies his historical philosophy of the history of Muslims of the 13th century AD. The three elements that form the basis of the historical philosophy of HAMKA are tawheed </em>(<em>tawḥīd</em>)<em>, moral </em>(<em>akhlāq</em>)<em> and intelligence </em>(‘<em>aql</em>).<em> This paper intends to reveal the historical philosophy of HAMKA and its underlying elements. The method used in this paper is a normative method with an analytical approach. Normative is used to describe and narrate the views of the historical philosophy of HAMKA, which is influenced by various views of his life reflected through his literature (sastra), tafsir, and history </em>(<em>historiography</em>)<em>. Analytical is used to provide views or responses related to the points of thought within the scope of historical philosophy. This study finds that Historical Philosophy of HAMKA affirms that tawheed, moral, and intelligence are inseparable part of seeing an event which became known as history. Tawheed is shown by the human resignation as God's creature that the events that happen to him are the proper circumstances. Intelligence shows the character of man as a being who can contemplate every event that occurs in his life. Moral leads man to understand that an event is not only determined by the side of Tawheed and Intelligence, but also by the Morals who have a function to regulate human behavior how it should behave in every historical event, with the intention to acquire ibrah </em>(l<em>esson</em>).</p><p class="Iabstrak"><strong>Abstrak: </strong>Pemahaman terhadap historiografi HAMKA tidak dapat dilepaskan dari pemahaman tiga unsur yang mendasari filsafat sejarahnya tentang sejarah umat Islam abad 13-20 Masehi. Tiga unsur yang menjadi dasar filsafat sejarah HAMKA yaitu tauhid, akhlak dan akal. Tulisan ini bermaksud untuk mengungkap filsafat sejarah HAMKA beserta unsur-unsur yang mendasarinya. Metode yang di­gunakan dalam tulisan ini adalah metode normatif dengan pendekatan analitis. Nor­matif digunakan untuk memberikan gambaran dan menarasikan pandangan-pandangan filsafat sejarah HAMKA, yang dipengaruhi oleh berbagai macam pandangan hidupnya yang tercermin melalui karya satra, tafsir dan sejarahnya (historiografi). Analitis digunakan untuk memberikan pandangan atau tanggapan terkait pokok-pokok pikirannya dalam ruang lingkup filsafat sejarah. Kajian ini menemukan bahwa filsafat sejarah HAMKA meneguhkan bahwa tauhid, akhlak, dan akal merupakan bagian yang tidak terpisahkan dalam melihat suatu peristiwa yang kemudian dikenal dengan sejarah. Tauhid ditunjuk­kan dengan keberserahan manusia sebagai makhluk Allah bahwa peristiwa yang ter­jadi kepadanya merupakan keadaan yang semestinya terjadi. Akal me­nunjuk­kan ciri manusia sebagai mahkluk yang dapat merenungi setiap peristiwa yang terjadi dalam kehidupannya. Akhlak mengarahkan manusia untuk me­mahami bahwa suatu peristiwa tidak hanya ditentukan oleh sisi Tauhid dan Akal, melainkan juga oleh Akhlak yang memiliki fungsi untuk mengatur perilaku manusia bagaimana seharusnya bersikap dalam setiap peristiwa sejarah, dengan maksud untuk memeperoleh <em>ibrah </em>(pelajaran).</p></div><p class="Iabstrak"> </p>
