The authors explore current problems of public administration of processes related to combating corruption, focusing on its theoretical, methodological, political and legal aspects. This is due to the fact that the society has formed a demand to ensure resolute counteraction to corruption, the spread of which creates an existential threat to Russian society. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the efforts of the government, business and civil society, including the scientific and expert community, aimed at solving this problem. Special attention is paid to the search and use of adequate theoretical and methodological approaches to the corruption problem, which has a complex nature, and the development of effective anti-corruption technologies. In this regard, a critical analysis was carried out and the inconsistency of biologizing and sociologizing interpretations of corruption, recognition of its "eternal" nature, etc., was shown, which leads to the development and use of ineffective anticorruption tools. On the contrary, heuristic possibilities of dialectical, concrete-historical and interdisciplinary approaches to the development of anti-corruption system are postulated. It is concluded that the deep origins, causes and factors that generate corruption in modern Russia are rooted in the model of social structure chosen in the 1990s. The necessity of developing and implementing an updated state anti-corruption policy in the context of ongoing and expected socio-economic and political transformations is substantiated. It is shown that the updated anti-corruption policy should be implemented in dialectical unity with the state policy on the preservation and strengthening of traditional spiritual and moral values.

Modern Ukrainian society requires journalism to create high-quality analytical materials that contribute to the formation of the socio-political position of citizens and influence the adoption of political decisions by representa-tives of government structures, leaders of political parties, public organizations. This, in turn, requires journalists to have competence, the ability to think critically, evaluate, analyze, and forecast. Creation of high-quality journalistic materials requires the development and application of the methodological tools of political journalism, the formation and replenishment of which occurs at the intersection with other sciences and through related fields of activity. The acquisition of this tool by a political journalist is the key to his successful work.The article is devoted to the actual topic of studying the methodological aspects of political journalism. Attention is focused on the problem of methodology, which has a close connection with the search for methods of political journalism. Knowledge and skilful use of techniques, methods and methods are the essence of the journalist's meth-odological culture. Its components are the general methodology of social cognition, the general journalistic method-ology, the methodology for obtaining empirical data, and the methodological basis for interpreting the information obtained.The author analyzes various approaches to the classification of methods used in journalistic activities. The defini-tion of methods of journalism can be decided only at the methodological level, which involves the generalization of already existing forms and methods of journalistic activity with all other forms of human activity. The article drew at-tention to the expediency of the transformation of general scientific methods of cognition and their specific use in journalism, the replenishment of the traditional journalistic arsenal of methods with new ones, the individual creation by the journalist in practice of his own methods, which later become generally known. ; Статья посвящена актуальной теме изучения методологических аспектов политической журналистики.

This book presents Durkheim as an important political sociologist, inspired by and advocating socialism. Through a series of studies, it argues that Durkheim's normative vision, which can be called libertarian socialism, shaped his sociological critique and search for alternatives. With attention to the value of this political sociology as a means of understanding our contemporary world, the author asks us to look again at Durkheim. While Durkheim's legacy has often emphasised the supposed conservative elements and stability advocated in his thought, we can point to a different legacy, one of a radical sociology. In dialogue with the decolonial critique, this volume also asks was Durkheim white?' and in doing so shows how, as a Jew, he experienced significant racialisation in his lifetime. A new reading and a vital image of a political Durkheim', The Political Durkheim will appeal to scholars and students with interests in Durkheim, social theory and political sociology.

Europe and its security have seen a very rich development in the last few years of the Cold War. In fact, just six years ago we discussed the French idea of creating a European confederation, which unfortunately seems to be part of history. The Balkan crisis then turned into a kind of behavioural test of countries and international organisations, almost immediately. We are witnessing the effectiveness of the Atlantic Alliance and the confirmation of its necessity in the face of the risks of our time. It is also worth recalling the importance of the French commitment in Bosnia: the dispatch of the Rapid Action Force (FAR) units was an action that led President Clinton to deploy US units in Bosnia. In any case, US engagement in Bosnia shows that more NATO can mean more Europe tomorrow. In this article, the author focuses on Czech security policy, in particular in his relations with NATO and in collaboration with the United States. ; International audience ; Europe and its security have seen a very rich development in the last few years of the Cold War.
