From Prehistory to History, From Homo Sapiens to Homo Harmonicus
When you read such quasi-scientific works as “The End of History” (by F. Fukuyama) and the like, you inevitably come to the conclusion: they are written by ignorant people. History hasn’t yet occurred. Everything that was, that is and that will be – is just a prehistory, because it involves “anthropogenic” laws of development invented by imperfect man, which are contrary to natural ones. The true history will come when the world begins to follow natural laws, basing social construction on them [1-3].

The Global Web of Western Colonization of the World: From Economics and Politics to Consciousness and Meaning
DOI: 10.33917/es-1.205.2026.6-13
The article examines the West’s attempts to expose the world to a new colonization, both economically and politically, as well as through manipulation of consciousness, civilizational meanings and values. The paper reveals the content of the “Washington Consensus” model and coloniality as a new term in political discourse, denoting a more complex colonial dependence of modern times, hidden under the external appearance of independence and sovereignty, distinguishing it from the classical colonialism of the past.

Countering Coups D’etat and Attempts to Forcefully Seize the Power in the Russian Federation
DOI: 10.33917/es-1.205.2026.14-23
Attempts to violently seize the power in post-Soviet states can be reduced to operation of complex organizational systems, which means that adaptive application of general principles and tools for managing such systems is possible. It is necessary to analyze such processes from scientific point of view and proactively plan measures or better yet, systemic mechanisms, to counter these processes, which will ensure the stability of public administration at various levels of hierarchy and administrative infrastructure of the Russian Federation.
