Nowadays globalization processes have become all-embracing. But at the same time, despite the ever-increasing flow of publications on globalization, our understanding and knowledge of it still leaves much to be desired. Especially it concerns the global processes in general, of which globalization is a part. We also need to systematize our ideas about globalization and Global Studies to somehow fit the realities. In particular, this concerns the education process, because the current state of education will determine the way people will perceive reality in the forthcoming decades. This yearbook aims at contributing to the solution of these important tasks. It is the third in the series of yearbooks titled Globalistics and Globalization Studies. This year it has the following subtitle: Aspects & Dimensions of Global Views. Its authors consider globalization and Global Studies in different dimensions and aspects: philosophical, methodological, and pedagogical, in terms of various processes, problems and perspectives. Of course, to some extent this means that this yearbook presents rather diverse materials. But globalization itself is very diverse. And its comprehension may proceed in the framework of different theoretical approaches and points of view.
In the present yearbook one can find perceptions of globalization and Global Studies by a number of scholars from different countries of the world and learn rather peculiar visions of globalization
by the Russian scientists and educators. The yearbook will be interesting to a wide range of researchers, teachers, students and all those who pay attention to global issues.

(3) What is a gene? (4) Public knowledge, public trust and improved dialogue between the public and scientists.

<p>La première partie de cet article présente l'organisation traditionnelle<br />du village à travers quelques aspects socio-économiques dont on a<br />souligné la nature dynamique. L'évolution plus récente du village est<br />ensuite abordée sur le plan économique d'abord avec l'influence du <br />tourisme, puis sur le plan social avec l'autonomie renforcée de la<br />cellule conjugale par rapport au lignage et l'individualisation des per <br />sonnes par rapport au groupe familial. L'opposition société tradition­<br />nelle/société contemporaine n'a été établie que pour une meilleure <br />clarté du texte, car il n'y a pas eu de rupture entre les deux.</p>
