Civilizational Basis of Political Discourse
Abstract
The article is dedicated to the analysis of civilizational indices in political studies. According to the author, after the famous work of Samuel Huntington, this theme gets its further development in the Western political science in bringing Eastern political thought heritage. Understanding of political, economic, social and other processes may become more systematic and verified if we take into account the historical and civilizational paradigms and patterns.
