The focal point in the critical review by T.Alexeyeva is the collective monograph prepared by the Department of Political Processes of MGIMO University under the guidance of professor M.Lebedeva. T.Alexeyeva thinks it is a major accomplishment of the monograph in question that it considers the notion and phenomenon of actorness under a new angle of vision. While pointing out that the monograph has more moments open to question than supplies answers thereto “in a cramming manner” she still maintains that this “untuned vision” and “incompleteness” can in no way be seen as a drawback because they reflect the dynamic and changing essence of contemporary world politics.

Perception and essence of the political
A fourth article from a series of publications on the most significant problems of political philosophy tries to discover the essence of notion "the political".

At the same time, T.Alekseyeva notes that she uses one, but not the sole possible way of reasoning.

In the spotlight of the article are plans and projects on reducing of number of subjects within the Russian Federation with the aim of their integration which is considered initially through an example of the Tyumen area and two autonomous regions linked with it. In this connection the authors turn to a foreign experience, try to weigh up all positive and negative consequences of proposed changes in territorial division of the country.
The legal base of such kind of territorial reform, its immediate and postponed hazards (domestic, social, economical and geopolitical) are considered in the article. In particular, the authors draw up a conclusion that annexation of Khunty - Mansijsky and Yamal-Nenetsky autonomous regions to Tyumen area is unacceptable.

Liberalism as the Political Ideology
One of the reasons of the liberal ideology failure in Russia is that it was represented in the form of the «classic» liberalism, difficult in understanding for the post-totalitarian society. The analogous reasons led to the unpopularity of the modern libertarianism (of the Nozik's sort). An admissible alternative to it is the John Rawls «theory of justice», the modern version of the reformist liberalism, that concentrates not only on freedom, but on justice. Such version of liberalism could give a new impulse to the democratic transformations in Russia and further the society stabilization and consolidation around the synthesis of the new and the traditional values.
