Se analiza la obra de César Vallejo, en especial las crónicas escritas desde su llegada a París, para valorar su concepto del mundo moderno. En Europa tiene la percepción directa de proceder de los márgenes, de lugares y países que no cuentan en el mundo moderno, perspectiva que se combina con la admiración por el centro cultural. Su poética se afianza con una especial idea de la modernidad, dirá en 1925: «Dos personas contemplan un gran lienzo; la que más pronto se emociona, esa es la más moderna», pues los descubrimientos del mundo deben producir nuevas respuestas, una nueva sensibilidad. ABSTRACT An analysis of the works of César Vallejo, specially his articles written from Paris, in order to perceive his idea of the modern world. In Europe he has the clear perspective of speaking from the margins, countries and places outside the modern world, a perspective that is in  consonance  with  his  admiration for the cultural center. His poetics is configured within a specific concept of modernity, as he stated in 1925: «Two people look at a large canvass; the one who is more quickly moved is the more modern», since the discoveries of the world should produce new answers, a new sensibility. Keywords: Peruvian poetry, César Vallejo, Los heraldos negros, Trilce, articles.

  The article studies the influence of global constitutionalism (as a social concept and phenomenon of social reality) on the processes of universalization of national legal systems taking place in the modern world, examines not only the limits and consequences of the impact of this dominant interpretation of social reality on the development of national legal systems, but also the problems that  arise in national societies and states in terms of their preservation and development due to the growth of globalization processes in the world. The authors have developed a number of general principles, the observance and implementation of which will ensure, on the one hand, the preservation and development of national societies and states, and on the other hand, the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of a person and citizen, which ultimately is a necessary condition for the preservation and development human society in the future.

Is technological control taking the place of what appeared uncannily uncontrollable? Or is it itself becoming uncanny? Two seemingly contradictory narratives have shaped the history and theory of technology. The narrative of disenchantment describes how nature, experienced as something foreign and dangerous, was tamed by becoming scientific and mechanised. Secondly, the narrative of (re-)enchantment recounts how artefacts and technological possibilities become uncanny, especially by way of their seeming independence and by confronting us with an ‘autonomous’ logic of their own. In today's debates about self-learning, ubiquitous, invisible and opaque technologies, the uncanny moment resonates of a technology with ‘a life of its own’. Following up on the mechanisation and automation discourses of the 20th century, this contributes to the ‘demonisation’ of technology. On the one hand, technology makes the world familiar and comprehensible, e.g. by equating understanding with technical reconstruction. On the other hand, the technical reproduction of the world – or its radical transformation into an alienated one – is experienced as something disturbing. When artefacts appear to do ‘what they want’ or when large technical systems shape the world according to their ‘own logic’, a limit is reached that was already mentioned by Freud – we become uncertain whether we are still living in the modern world at all.

The fact that up to the 1960s world population growth had been characterized by a hyperbolic trend was discovered quite some time ago. A number of mathematical models describing this trend have already been proposed. Some of these models are rather compact but do not account for the mechanisms of this trend; others account for this trend in a very convincing way, but are rather complex. In fact, the general shape of world population growth dynamics could be accounted for with strikingly simple models like the one which we would like to propose ourselves: dN/dt = a (bK – N) N (1); dK/dt = cNK (2), where N is the world population, K is the level of technology/knowledge, bKcorresponds to the number of people (N), which the earth can support with the given level of technology (K). Empirical tests performed by us suggest that the proposed set of two differential equations account for 96.2– 99.78% of all the variation in demographicmacrodynamics of the world in the last 12,000 years. We believe that the patterns observed in pre-modern world population growth are not coincidental at all. In fact, they reflect population dynamics of quite a real entity, the world system. Note that the presence of a more or less well integrated world system comprising most of the world population is a necessary precondition, without which the correlation between the world population numbers generated by hyperbolic growth models and the observed ones would not be especially high. In fact, our findings could be regarded as a striking illustration of the fact well known in complexity studies — that chaotic dynamics at the microlevel can generate a highly deterministic macrolevel behavior. Against this background it is hardly surprising to find that the simplest regularities accounting for extremely high proportions of all the macrovariation can be found just for the largest possible social system — the world system.

The paper presents some considerations, partly polemic, inspired by Mary Kaldor’s book New and Old Wars. For this end, a brief comparative analysis is suggested of large-scale wars of the past (starting from the17th and with particular attention to the end of the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries), on the one hand, and the so called “new wars”, on the other. The concept of “war” has been actual permanently, but it underwent changes, the most serious of them took place at the beginning and in the middle of the 20st century. However, the current political situation on the world scene shows that the conflicts of the globalization era differ considerably from those of previous centuries which were mainly conducted according to the generally adopted “rules of war” considered now as classical.The substantial role in modern violent collisions is played by a conflict of identities which was not so important when wars were conducted mainly between national states. Unlike conflicts of the previous centuries, the military confrontations of today may occur not only between states, but also inside the single country, where different groups of participants are pursuing their own goals in frameworks of identity policy. The traditional notion of civil war is not enough to cover this variety. Due to the global nature of the modern conflicts and involvement of the variety of participants, the conflict resolution seems to be more complicated than ever. Moreover, the identity factor has become an effective tool for different parties of the conflict who tend to use it at their own convenience. Consequently, resolution of modern violent conflicts, wherever they develop, demands contemporary and often non-trivial solutions, as well as close attention of the global community. The author believes that to resolve modern conflicts effectively, the world society should create a unified and comprehensive definition of the concept of “war” as well as invent new ways of the conflict solution taking into consideration, among other things, the diverse dynamics of globalization processes.

The layout of the world tailored to the human. Contemporary world in Slovenian drama.This paper deals with the present-day Slovenian dramatic works facing the challenges of the contemporary world on the one hand and the consequent changes our society has been subject to on the other. Particular attention is paid to three main topics: discarded human beings or G. Agamben’s homines sacri, globalization or, in other words, “liquidity” of the modern world cf. Z. Bauman’s infamous definition, and the devolution of both Christian as well as Enlightenment values and norms. By way of an in-depth analysis, the paper will bring into picture sociological, anthropological, political, economic and other perspectives in the newest Slovenian drama. The paper’s central argument will be the present-day emptiness of norms such as the Decalogue or Kant’s categorical imperative. Such an up-to-date account of the dramatic endeavours in Slovenia necessarily paints a rather morbid picture of our contemporary world. Načrt sveta, narejenega po človekovi meri: sodobna slovenska drama tika.Pričujoči članek se ukvarja s sodobnimi slovenskimi dramskimi deli, ki se spopadajo z izzivi današnjega sveta z ene in posledičnimi spremem­bami naše družbe z druge strani. Posebno pozornost posveča trem osrednjim temam: odpisanim človeškim bitjem oziroma Agambenovim homines sacri, globalizaciji ali, z drugimi besedami, „tekočosti“ sodobnega sveta prim. neslavno definicijo Z. Baumana in razkroju tako krščanskih kot razsvetljenskih vrednot in norm. S pomočjo poglobljene analize osvetli članek sociološke, antropološke, politične, ekonomske in druge perspektive v najnovejših slovenskih dramah. Osrednji argument v članku je sodobna izpraznjenost norm, kot je na primer deset božjih zapovedi ali Kantov kategorični imperativ. Takšno posodobljeno poročilo o slovenskih dramskih prizadevanjih nujno kažejo precej morbidno sliko našega današnjega sveta.

The economic realities of recent years convincingly reveal the increased role of international integration and cooperation in the global development of the global community, the strengthening of the global trend in the formation of a single world economy. An important feature of the development of the modern world is a strong link between the structure and the process of transforming the world economy. The boundaries between "national" and "international" in the world political system are blurred. Transnational flows of goods, services, labor, tourists, information, ideas and values ​​become stronger. Globalization is a process that changes not only the external context in which the state operates, but also the very nature of the state and of the political communities in general. The interdependence of the modern world is manifested on the one hand in the emergence of global threats and, on the other, in increasing the social and economic benefits generated by countries' participation in globalization. Keywords: globalization, glocalization, regionalization

AbstractNationalism in the modern world began in European metropoles but spread throughout the world system in the form of anticolonial nationalism. While many studies have explored the former, this essay systematically examines the latter. Based upon an original database of 124 cases, we test multiple theories that might account for the origins and spread of anticolonial nationalism. We adjudicate between cultural-cognitive approaches emphasizing the discursive bases for national imaginings on the one hand and, on the other, theories that emphasize political-economic dynamics and elite conflict. Our time-series regression analysis suggests that while cultural-cognitive approaches best account for the initial wave of anticolonial nationalism, from 1700 to 1878, theories stressing political-economic dynamics and elite conflict explain anticolonial nationalism in the later wave, from 1879 to 1990. The analysis suggests that theories of nationalism need to be attentive to the historical specificity of their claims.

The musical oeuvre of Milan Mihajlovic (b. 1945) enjoys a high reputation and position in contemporary Serbian music. This has been proven by the many awards he has received, countless performances of his compositions at home and abroad, and especially by the warm and approving reactions of the audience. The stylistic consistency in his oeuvre is a result of his creative use of Scriabin?s scale. The concept of this scale was first theoretically elaborated in an extensive study written by Mihajlovic in 1980 and, since then the scale has been functioning as a crucial cohesive element in all Mihajlovic?s compositions. The novelty in his oeuvre, composed during the 1990s, were intertextual references made by using citations from his own works and those of other composers (Monteverdi, Mozart, Stravinsky, Rachmaninov, Vasilije Mokranjac). The most characteristic features of his mature style are also recognizable in his recent works Melancholy (2014) and Rebellion (2015). The interval structure of Skriabin?s scale is projected along the horizontal (melodical) and vertical (harmonical) axes of the both works while the formal design resulted from shifts of tensions and relaxations. Developmental sections are based on variation and improvisation of the small number of different motifs (three basic ones in Melancholy, four in Rebellion) above the metrically moveable ostinato layers and the releases are marked by change of tempo, dynamic, meter and texture. The most significant and radical release is the one which marks the abrupt ending of Rebellion by the physical gesture of slamming down the keyboard lid. As the composition was written for the BUNT festival (Belgrade) it fits the festival?s idea of expressing resistance to the government?s neglect of academic musicians and institutions. In the wider sense, it becomes a sign of the resistance to the world we live in, and that is the world of lost ideals. Both works are composed for the wind instrument and the piano quartet and in the both cases the author?s voice, with its figures of sorrow and anger, is personified in singing, narrative lines of the wind instrument (the oboe in Melancholy and French horn in Rebellion respectively). These two compositions also demonstrate the specific concept of a circle that is intuitively searched for and ingeniously implemented. It is manifested by the cyclic concept of Scriabin?s scale and projected in all of the author?s compositional procedures as a vehicle for the expression of lament and resignation.

This paper presents the case of psychology from a perspective not widely recognized by the West, namely, the Egyptian, Arab, and Islamic perspective. It discusses the introduction and development of psychology in this part of the world. Whenever such efforts are evaluated, six problems become apparent: (1) the one-way interaction with Western psychology; (2) the intellectual dependency; (3) the remote relationship with national heritage; (4) its irrelevance to cultural and social realities; (5) the inhibition of creativity; and (6) the loss of professional identity. Nevertheless, some major achievements are emphasized, and a four-facet look into the 21st century is proposed.

In the 21st century, the world became a sign of globalization: global conflicts, global disasters, global economy, global Internet, etc. The Polish researcher Casimir Zhigulsky defines globalization as a kind of process, that is, the target set of characteristic changes that develop over time and occur in the modern world. These changes in general are reduced to mutual rapprochement, reduction of distances, the rapid appearance of a large number of different connections, contacts, exchanges, and to increase the dependence of society in almost all spheres of his life from what is happening in other, often very remote regions of the world.
