The authors propose an original classifi cation of the enlightenment phenomenon on the basis of the results of a largescale all-Russia study, which was carried out by the asset of the All-Russia Public and State Enlightenment Organisation he Russian «Knowledge» Society» (in 2017), as well as on the basis of the data of investigations of the Russian Public Opinion Research Centre (2016-2018), in terms of the concept of marketing and the prevalent 7P (marketing mix model) marketing instruments in the present article. The identifi cation of the nature and level of awareness of nlightenment projects among different target audiences, the identifi cation of interest in the subject matter and format of enlightenment activities, the motivation for periodic training, and the determination of the capacity of the population to pay for enlightenment products
were among the tasks of the above-mentioned investigations. In addition, the most successful management practices in the fi eld of promotion of cultural, mass and socially signifi cant projects in both towns and megacities were summarised on
the basis of expert interviews, carried out within the framework of the study. The reduced classifi cation of the enlightenment product, the simplifi cation of which is related to the factors of digitalisation of modern society and information space, taking
into account the factors of complication of the social communication process and the permanently increasing requirements for personal and professional qualities of the person (especially with regard to skills and competences of the future), is given.

The more complete scientifi c detailed and systemic analysis, comparison with traditional marketing concepts will make their practical application more focused and effective.

People living in contemporary democracies are often baffled by phenomena which resist easy judgement: globalisation and media omnipotence; disinformation and state-sponsored torture; moralism and the right of intervention; the dominance of economics and the triumph of technology. In this book, Todorov shows that we cannot learn lessons from the past unless we know how to relate them to the present. He
