NUMBER of MAGAZINE: 33 (3) 2008ă.
The HEADING: POLITICS
AUTHORS: Buyanov Valery
1. Russia would have to shoot ahead as a leader of socio-economic and intellectual progress. The ambitious declarations delivered by the two heads of the state in succession, have to be backed and provided for by organizational, financial, info-propagandistic and other measures. 2. Compatriot diasporas scattered all over the world play an important role in building up the contemporary ‘Russian World’. To coordinate - and more so to unite - the efforts of the mother-country and the communities overseas means to give the Russian World some new vital impulse. Russia could get the capital in the form of investments and innovative technologies from the Russian abroad, especially from its European and American habitats, also the compatriots could lobby the Russian interests in the foreign countries, including weakening NATO’s political pressure upon the Russian Federation. 3. The Russian World is a way to unify people, to renew the Russian identity. While renewing, we have something to lose and also something to find. A greater openness and emancipation in the face of the outer world, rather than isolation, the growth of entrepreneurship, more weight of such qualities as material success and individual freedom among the national values, self-supporting and gradual displacing paternalistic expectations - these and other new dimensions of the identity and mentality help to faster involve the Russians and their country in the globalizing world. 4. The Russian World is hoped not to be lost among the civilizations, nations and peoples, and be able to take leading positions at a new convolution of the civilization development of the mankind. But that would depend, primarily, upon successes of Russia as the core of the Russian World, upon strengthening its position in adequate terms with the first line of our National Hymn.
