Abstract: In the 1990s, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Russia as well as Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) received significant scholarly attention since they were viewed as drivers of democratization.1 While researchers later critically reassessed this optimistic view of NGOs, focusing instead on issues such as their overdependence on foreign funding and elitism, NGOs remained a salient feature of the academic literature during the 2000s.2 Over the past decade, however, scholars have begun to pay more attention to "everyday politics" and "uneventful" collective initiatives by citizens who do not belong to formal entities such as NGOs.3These initiatives are characterized by a focus on specific issues and evince a ...

Abstract: The Far East is Russia's largest macro-region, accounting for about 40% of the country's total territory. Despite the abundance of land and valuable natural resources (over 80% of Russia's diamond reserves, 40% of its gold reserves, over 50% of its forests, about 20% of its oil resources, and more), the harsh cold climate, long distances to the central part of the country, and outmigration of the population due to economic hardship since the collapse of the Soviet Union have resulted in a rather scarce population of just over 8 million people, or 6% of Russia's total population. It is the combination of the Far East's enormous territory, natural resources, low population, and geographical proximity to emerging ... Read More PubDate: 2022-05-02T00:00:00-05:00

Abstract: The article explores news production in two national newspapers, aiming to ascertain how journalists make news and what journalistic roles emerge from news content.The professional role is one of the key concepts in journalism studies. In the literature, professional roles have mostly been understood as dimensions of professional ideology,1 professionalism,2 and journalism culture.3 A new approach to the analysis of professional roles comes from the perspective of discursive institutionalism.4 Here, roles are understood as a part of a discourse: "they exist because and as we talk about them"; "they set the parameters of what is desirable in a given institutional context"; "within a discursive perspective ...

Abstract: At the time of the foundation of the European Economic Community (EEC) in the 1950s, there was a strong consensus among European political elites and their respective societies that European economic integration should be supported. The early 1990s, however, saw the emergence of skeptical attitudes toward European integration for the first time.1 Since then, the waves of enlargement of the European Union, the establishment of the Eurozone, and migrant crises have transformed Euroscepticism from a marginal phenomenon into a central feature of mainstream politics that affects the prospects of the EU and other key players.2 In this context, the UK's decision to leave the EU can be seen as a real triumph of ...
