“…Hence, the mixture of authoritarianism, nationalism and neoliberalism has become a permanent element of the political system created by the right-wing populists. Examples of these practices can be found in many places around the world including in the Philippines (Ramos, 2021), Brazil (de Souza, 2020), Hungary (Fabry, 2019), and Turkey (Akçay, 2021). Also in Poland, the social policy of PiS did not undermine, contrary to their propaganda, the logic of neoliberalism (Shields, 2021).…”

The article poses an extremely important question of whether it is possible to remove authoritarian authorities using the methods of parliamentary democracy in a situation where the government has weakened or dismantled democratic mechanisms and institutions. The article treats the rule of right-wing populists as a comprehensive ruling system of the triple-masters class (identified with the apparatus of the ruling party), who fully controls the political, cultural, and economic spheres. The nationalist cultural and ideological superstructure legitimizes the rule of right-wing populists, but it is only a means to build the economic hegemony of the triple-masters class and strengthen their political power. Based on the material gathered during focus group interviews with opposition party activists, the article outlines the main problems faced by the opposition in the state of the triple-masters class.

“…economic slowdowns for countries more dependent on fossil fuels and less able to pay for energy transitions (39). The power dynamics around energy in the Philippines are particularly interesting as communities have rejected coal mining through mobilizations and attempts to center better human relationships with nature (42,43). Those in power provide rhetorical support for environmental protections while at the same time fostering increased extraction.…”

“…Those in power provide rhetorical support for environmental protections while at the same time fostering increased extraction. Activists expressed optimism that incoming president Rodrigo Duterte supported their actions, but his tenure has been marked by a continuation and escalation of extractivism (27,(42)(43)(44)(45).…”

This review engages with literature on authoritarian populism, focusing specifically on its relationship to the environment. We analyze hybrid combinations of authoritarianism and populism to explore three themes from the literature: environmental governance, social and political representations of nature, and resistance. In the environmental governance section, we analyze how governments have increasingly resorted to populist politics to expand extractivism; certain commodities with national security implications have become key commodities to be protected; and borders, frontiers, and zones of inclusion/exclusion have become flash points. In the social and political representations of nature section, we analyze settler colonialism and sacrifice zones as organizing principles for relations with the environment. In our final section on resistance, we review literature highlighting pushback to authoritarian populism from peasant, indigenous, and worker movements. Variants of populism and authoritarianism are likely to persist amid increasing competition over resources as components of responses to environmental and climate crisis. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Environment and Resources, Volume 47 is October 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

“…Более того, «универсальная» экономическая теория традиционно предлагает нам рецепты, как обеспечить экономический рост государств без учета их национально-культурных особенностей, истории, этапа развития и т.п. Несмотря на то, что корректность данного подхода неоднократно ставилась исследователями под сомнение [27][28][29], представители доминирующих школ в настоящее время настаивают на своем подходе, который, помимо прочего, активно поддерживается и глобальными структурами типа Мирового банка и МВФ [30,31].…”

При всем разнообразии условий и форм регионального развития существуют их общие признаки, характеризующие поведение населения и окружающую его изменяющуюся социальную, экономическую и экологическую среды. Совокупность признаков, по нашему мнению, в самом обобщенном, структурном плане составляет качественную и количественную основы моделей регионального развития. При этом можно наблюдать процессы коллективного встраивания регионов в общие тенденции, в значительной степени ограничивающие разнообразие происходящих в них (регионах) изменений, что позволяет сделать вывод о возможности типологизации и сравнимости последних. Опираясь преимущественно на методы теоретического обобщения, сравнительного и ретроспективного анализа (для систематизации и обобщения основных положений рассматриваемых теоретико-методологических подходов), авторы сделали вывод, что решение указанной задачи, учитывая сложность процессов и их характер, должно опираться на социокультурный подход, позволяющий рассматривать исследуемые объекты в аспекте, с одной стороны, их уникальности и разнообразия (социально-демографической, экономической, культурной и пр.), с другой -единства и взаимообусловленности их совместного развития. По мнению авторов, предлагаемый подход наиболее точно позволит описать наблюдаемую и перспективную динамику социально-экономического развития регионов России.Ключевые слова: социокультурный подход, межрегиональные сравнения, региональное развитие, концепция «догоняющего развития», экономическая теория METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF COMPARATIVE RESEARCH IN THE FIELD OF REGIONAL SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT1 Shelomentsev A.G., 2 Goncharova K.S.With all a variety of conditions and forms of regional development, there are their common features that characterize a behavior of a population and a changing social, economic and environmental environment surrounding it. The set of features, in our opinion, in the most generalized, structural terms, constitute a qualitative and quantitative foundations of regional development models. At the same time, it is possible to observe processes of collective integration of regions into general trends, largely limiting a diversity of changes occurring in them (regions), which allows us to conclude that the latter can be typologized and comparable. Relying mainly on methods of theoretical generalization, comparative and retrospective analysis (for systematization and generalization of the main provisions of a theoretical and methodological approaches under consideration), authors concluded that a solution of this problem, given a complexity of processes and their nature, should be based on a socio-cultural approach that allows considering a objects under study in the aspect of, on the one hand, their uniqueness and diversity (socio-demographic, economic, cultural, etc.), on the other hand, unity and interdependence of their joint development. According to the authors, the proposed approach will most accurately describe an observed and prospective dynamics of socio-economic development of regions of Russia.
