The article is based on an idea that there are four different modes of understanding reality – practice, science, art and mysticism. Political liberalism demands separation of public and private beliefs. However, mystical understanding of reality is not a system of propositions and beliefs. This is why one can speak of a conflict between liberalism and mystical understanding of reality. Political liberalism imposes a certain understanding of reality on believers. Liberals propose to remove religious convictions from public life and not to treat them as a basis of politics. They forget that mystics have the biggest trouble namely with convictions. To turn the reality of God into words for them is always the hardest task. Mystics find God before words, concepts and discourses. Liberals reduce religion to convictions and demand from mystics to comprehend that, which in their opinion is not comprehensible. There is a tension between liberalism and people who have mystical experiences. Liberals narrow down religious experience to convictions. However, mystical experience is a much broader subject. Behind it stands an understanding of world that has its own standards of reality.

The 15th Lithuanian government cabinet is set to become the most stable of all to date. Nevertheless, its political programme was one of radical reform of governance (the term which was not expressly articulated in its political programme). During this period, the Lithuanian academe has also embraced the idea of governance. However, it resulted in two competing translations of the concept. In early 2012, the government has approved "The Programme of Governance Development" where it provided for an express definition of the term. An analysis of governance reform and its prospects for the future set out in the programme allows us conclude that governance is understood within the framework of "good governance". At the same time, the methods of implementation of the provisions of this programme will go along the lines of the existing administrative practice. ; XV Vyriausybės programoje 2008 m. buvo numatyta daug ambicingų pertvarkų viešojo valdymo srityje. Praėjus 3,5 jos veiklos metų galime vertinti įgyvendintų reformų turinį ir prognozuoti pasekmes. Per šį laikotarpį tiek viešajame, tiek akademiniame diskursuose taip pat paplito terminas viešasis valdymas arba valdysena (angl. governance). 2012 m. pradžioje viešasis valdymas buvo apibrėžtas Lietuvos teisėje naujai parengtoje Viešojo valdymo tobulinimo 2012–2020 programoje. Straipsnyje analizuojama viešojo valdymo samprata šioje programoje ir jos ryšys su XV Vyriausybės veiklos metu įgyvendintomis reformomis. Terminas "viešasis valdymas" ("valdysena") akademinėje literatūroje vartojamas labai įvairiuose kontekstuose ir, atrodytų, nesuderinamomis ontologinėmis prielaidomis besiremiančiose teorijose. Straipsnyje prieinama prie išvados, kad viešasis valdymas Lietuvoje apibrėžiamas labai specifiškai ir atitinka "gerojo valdymo" idėją. Tuo pat metu metodai, kuriais ketinama siekti programos principų įgyvendinimo, iš esmės išlaikys Lietuvoje nusistovėjusią administracinę praktiką.

Straipsnyje Niccolò Machiavelli'o dorybės (virtú) ir respublikoniškos politikos sampratos analizuojamos Aristotelio dorybių etikos požiūriu. Machiavelli'o pilietinės dorybės akcentavimas bei respublikoniškos politikos idealų gynimas turi panašumų su Aristotelio politikos koncepcija. Atsispiriant nuo dviejų konkuruojančių Machiavelli'o interpretacijų (t.y. Kembridžo konteksto istorikų mokyklos ir Josepho V. Femia), straipsnyje teigiama, kad Machiavelli nutolsta nuo klasikinės aretē / virtus sampratos, tačiau išlieka konceptualus ryšys tarp Machiavelli'o respublikoniškos bendrojo gėrio sampratos ir Aristotelio praktinės filosofijos. Machiavelli'o modifikuota klasikinė virtus samprata ir respublikoniška retorika leidžia jo teorinę poziciją interpretuoti kaip protonacionalizmą. Sykiu straipsnyje teigiama, kad Machiavelli'o ciniški patarimai ir apibendrinimai gali iš dalies būti paaiškinti renesanso studia humanitatis edukacinės tradicijos, kurioje jis buvo išlavintas, ir brutalios Realpolitik neatitikimu.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: Machiavelli, Aristotelis, respublikoniška politika, virtú, dorybių etika, bendrasis gėris, studia humanitatis.Virtue and Politics: an Aristotelian Reading of Niccolò MachiavelliAndrius Bielskis SummaryThe paper discusses Niccolò Machiavelli's conception of virtue (virtú) and republican politics from the point of view of Aristotelian virtue ethics. Machiavelli's emphasis on civic virtue and the support of republican politics bear similarity to Aristotle's conception of politics. Against two competing interpretations of Machiavelli's legacy (the Cambridge contextual historians school and Joseph V. Femia), this paper argues that while Machiavelli moves away from the classical conception of aretē / virtus, he also, at the same time, shares with an Aristotelian practical philosophy the concept of the republican common good. Machiavelli's modified conception of classical virtus and his republican rhetoric allows us to interpret his position as proto-nationalist. Finally, this paper argues that Machiavelli's cynical advice and observations can be partly explained by the gap between the Renaissance education of studia humanitatis and the ruthlessness of Realpolitik.Keywords: Machiavelli, Aristotle, republican politics, virtú, virtue ethics, common good, studia humanitatis.
