This volume is the first to analyze populism's international dimension: its impact on, and interaction with, foreign policy and international politics. The contributions to this volume engage conceptual theoretical issues and overarching questions such as the still under-specified concept of populism or the importance of leadership and the mass media for populism's global rise. They zoom in on populism's effect on both different countries' foreign policies and core international concerns, including the future of the liberal world order and the chances for international conflict and cooperation more generally.

Technological and social innovationsare connected, social innovations determinethe ways of formulating the policiesin the technological, innovational and scientificpolicy areas. The article concludesthat there is a need for developing competitivemechanisms of support for social innovations,which give way to technological innovationand their diffusion, which leads tothe decrease of differentiation. The diffusionof social and technological innovations becomesthe task of the ripe foreign policy. ; В настоящее время в России образование и наука становятся ключевыми сферами в инновационном преобразовании экономической, правовой, политической и духовной сфер. Формула успеха в формировании национальной политики в области науки и образования заключается в умелом сочетании общих закономерностей и своей собственной специфики в ходе модернизации традиционных методов получения знания, его воспроизводства и развития в образовательном и исследовательском процессе. Технологические и социальные инновации неразрывно связаны, социальные инновации определяют пути и способы формулирования научной, технологической и инновационной политики государства. Автор заключает, что необходимо вырабатывать конкурентные механизмы поддержки социальных инноваций, которые создают основу инноваций технологических и их диффузии, уменьшающей дифференциацию в мире. Диффузия социальных и технологических инноваций — задача зрелой внешней политики государств.

The shock waves of what
happened in 1989 and after helped make the 1990s a peculiarly interesting decade,
and while all periods in history are by definition special, there was something
very special indeed about the years following the collapse of the socialist
project in the former USSR and Eastern Europe. Unfortunately, this has not been
reflected in the theoretical literature. Thus although there have been many books
on the end of the Cold War, even more on
the 'new' history of the Cold War itself, and several on the current state of international
relations after the 'fall', there has been relatively little work done so far on the
landscape of the new international system in formation. Moreover, while there
have been several post-Cold War controversies and debates—we think here of
Fukuyama's attempt to theorize the end of history,
Mearsheimer's realist reflections on the coming disorder in Europe, the various attempts to define the American
mission without a Soviet enemy, and Huntington's prediction about a coming clash of
civilizations—not much serious effort has been made to bring
these various discussions together in one single volume.
