Abstract:
The work is a phenomenological analysis of the concept “Russia is an original state-civilization”. This formula represents the civilizational self-determination of the State. It lapidarily defines his understanding of his own development and the desirable principles of the world order. The article attempts to find out its heuristic value. The history of the term “state-civilization” is revealed. It is proved that it acts along with civilization and the state as a specific social community and a sovereign subject of geopolitics. Its historicity, the mechanism of formation and development are indicated. The general features of the civilizational states and the substantive characteristics of the Russian civilizational state, its main features and peculiarities are revealed. The special role of the state-forming Russian people in the destinies of Russia is emphasized. Russianness is one of the main characteristics of the Russian state-civilization. The applied meaning of the concept in question is discussed in detail. In particular, the concepts of the clash of civilizations and the synergy of civilizations are discussed. At the same time, the reasons for the eternal and periodically escalating relations between Russia and the antagonistic Western civilization and the impossibility of integration with it are explained.
