On April 18-19, the annual international conference of young scientists "Ideologies at the Crossroads: Old Concepts and New Paradigms" was held at the Primakov National Research Institute of World Economy and International Relations. For the first time, foreign specialists who came to Moscow under the InteRussia internship program took part in the forum.
Over the course of two days, Russian and foreign researchers discussed a wide range of topics: from the foundations of the study of ideology to the centers of new ideologies.
The interns participated in the work of three sections:
After the presentations, the participants of the discussion talked about the features of the ideological development of India and Israel, made assumptions about the reasons for the crisis of modernity in Western Europe, and also discussed how the perception of history has changed and whether we can talk about a new stage in the comprehension of reality.
Based on the results of the conference, a collection "World Development" will be prepared.
