Production of Cultural Policy in Russia: Authority and Intellectual Leadership

2020

The paper discusses different frameworks of knowledge production within the discourses and practices of Russian cultural policy. Russian cultural policy as an administrative sector has been developed in line with two distinctive governmental regimes, more precisely during the period of liberal decentralisation of the 1990s and the conservative centralisation from 2011 up until today. The study focuses on the main changes that have occurred in the framework of policy design and participation in policy-making. An attempt is made to combine Foucauldian analytical frameworks of power and discourse with a Gramscian hegemonic approach to political studies that was mainly advocated by the Essex sc…

Tianxia, Kiina ja hegemonisen vakauden teoria

2020

Kiinassa on 2000-luvulla rakennettu kiinalaista maailmanpolitiikan teoriaa, joka ammentaa lännen sijaan Kiinan omasta historiasta ja älyllisestä traditiosta. Yksi eniten huomiota herättäneistä teoreettisista aloitteista on niin kutsuttu tianxia-teoria, jonka mukaan nykyinen kansallisvaltioihin pohjautuva kansainvälinen järjestelmä tulisi korvata Kiinan historiasta löytyvän tianxia-mallin mukaisella keskuskjohdetulla maailmanvaltiolla. Artikkeli vertaa tianxia-teoriaa hegemonisen vakauden teorian erilaisiin variantteihin ja esittää, että lähemmin tarkasteltuna tianxia-teorian ajatukset ovat varsin samankaltaisia jo vakiintuneiden teorioiden ajatusten kanssa. Tianxia theory is one of the most…

Biopolitics and Hegemony in Contemporary Russian Cultural Policy

2018

Since 2011, Russian ‘licensing civil society’ 1 has predominated through censorship and the restrictive regulation of arts and cultural societies. The current conservative project has turned artistic space into public space, indicating moral abuse and a threat to the spiritual health of the Russian nation. Consequently, the symbolic borders of human creativity and individual freedom in arts and cultural societies have been reduced to patriotism, nationalism and moral deductive functions of the state-approved program. This paper will explore Russian state cultural policy and argue that biopolitics is its mainstream strategy. It examines how the ensemble of sovereign and disciplinary power de…

‘To Make a People Out of a Mere Population’: Sovereignty and Governmentality in Hegemonic Russian Cultural Policy

2022

Abstract The paper claims that contemporary Russian cultural policy has been determined by political transformations associated with the political project to establish sovereignty that has organized Putin’s regime since 2012. The idea behind it is traced to Putin’s 2006 intention ‘to make a people out of a mere population’. To understand that intention, and to explain the contribution of culture and cultural policy to its concretization, the paper draws on Foucault’s account of sovereignty and governmentality, and the development of the Gramscian notion of hegemony. The paper argues that Putin’s regime uses governmentality in its hegemonic project to establish sovereignty. To describe that …

Ernesto Laclau reading Michel Foucault : Foucault as a target for hegemony

2015

In contrast to the tendency of other presently celebrated post-structuralist intellectuals, such as Giorgio Agamben and up to a certain extent Judith Butler, who make persistent efforts to support their work through the provision of frequent references to the work of Michel Foucault, Ernesto Laclau, the first popular post-structuralist theorist on British soil, opted to provide only a few references to Foucault, which actually were not always equally approbatory of the latter’s work. By drawing attention to these few references, this article aims to thematize Laclau’s relationship with Foucault as a quite interesting case for the understanding of present-day flows in the exchange of ideas o…

The Politics of Explanatory Nationalism and the Evolution of the United Nations Agenda on Multinational Enterprises

2020

The contemporary world continues to suffer from a number of social problems that are global in scope but impact the Global South disproportionately. While broad and coordinated policy responses to overcome these problems exist, such policies are not shaped solely by the political will to address the problems. On the contrary, their content largely depends on how societies in general and the social problems in particular are routinely explained and conceptualized. We refer to these as explanatory tendencies or paradigms of explanation. As complex problems always have multiple root causes with long causal chains, explanations of these causes necessarily involve some assumptions about relevant…
