    Abstract

    After the breakup of the Transcaucasian republic, Georgia's independence and the ultimatum imposed by the Ottoman Turkey, a very complicated and tense
    new military-political situation was created in the region. In fact, Armenia was completely isolated from its neighbors and remained alone against the Ottoman Turkey. Meanwhile, in mid-May 1918, Germany took serious steps to protect Georgia from military encroachments and ensure its territorial integrity, and the goal of the Tatars was not only to ensure Turkey's influence in Transcaucasia but also to become part of the Ottoman Empire. In the current extremely difficult and tense situation, the Armenian National Council had no alternative to accept this unprecedented ultimatum (May 28) and conclude a peace treaty and save the East Armenians from new problems. On May 30, the National Council of Armenia declared itself the supreme and sole authority in the Armenian provinces, laying the foundation for the construction of a national independent statehood.

    Abstract

    The Russian-Turkish political dialogue becomes more and more difficult year by year. In 2017, after a period of freezing relations with the political and information “shock”, came the period of the restoration of relationships. The main reason of this is the new balance of power in the Middle East and on the Syrian fronts. Positive impulses for the restoration of Russian-Turkish relations are stipulated by the deterioration of relations between Russia and Turkey, on the one hand, with the West, on the other. Another factor of the new level of Russian-Turkish relations is the Kurdish issue, which is becoming more and more important in the region. There is a significant rapprochement on the issue of Syrian Kurds between Russia and Turkey.

    Abstract

    The year 2013 was crucial for Armenia. It had two choices for development – either to act as some post-Soviet republics did and to sign the European Union Association Agreement, or taking into consideration the political, economic aspects of foreign policy and the problems of national security, to sign the agreement with Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus in order to join the Customs union. Armenia chose the second way of development, as well as during the Armenian president's visit to Russia, on 3 September 2013 it was announced that Armenia is going to join the Customs union. This decision divided the country into two unequal parts, the bigger of which accepted the president's decision. It is an important point to be made that there are good prospects of the Eurasian integration for Armenia. The economy is rising and is getting more attractive for its neighbors. It means that it was a right decision to join the Eurasian economic union.

    Abstract

    A number of features of Bolshevism are considered in the article. Taking into account the fact that the 20th century was the stage of the illusion of the realization of order. Accordingly, the world is just a will and understanding, and therefore it can somehow be regulated or changed. Realizing the surrounding world as a challenge and trying to subordinate their will, people realize their destiny. Now they know that any order is possible, if it was ever thought, and if there are tools that can be transferred to the world. Without a military presence of the Soviet occupation forces and the regulating role of the Eastern bloc, there would be no peaceful change of power. The Soviet Union entered the European reality as a power project but withdrew from the scene as a peacemaker.

    Abstract

    Political culture, which reflects the level and essence of political knowledge, orientations, assessments, and actions of people, the content and peculiarities of
    spiritual values, events and norms, is considered as one of the main directions of political science research. The essence of a political culture in most cases depends on its structure, which is formed under the influence of certain components determining the value-essence activities of people in the sphere of politics.
    The article examines different components of the structure of political culture: political experience, political consciousness, political institutions, political behavior and political symbols. An attempt has been made to consider cues as an integral part of political culture, taking into account the fact that anthropological (including ideological) characteristics underlie a person's self-identification and his orientations in politics, and in this sense, political culture can be represented by rational and irrational components.

    Abstract

    The regulation and integration of modern society are the most important among the functions of political power. Their implementation depends on the regular and successful influence of political structures on the mass consciousness and psychology having a purpose to legitimate all decisions in the public sector. Thus, constantly growing pressure on mass consciousness and public opinion accompanied by psychological and ideological influence. According to research, today there are plenty of ways or "soft measures" to influence the wide groups of public and these are usually latent. This phenomenon is manipulation. Manipulation has many ways of influencing the public opinion and their use implies considerable success for those who apply to them. Consequently, it transforms into a socio-political reality making an influence on all areas of social activities.
