Seeking to present the State from a different perspective, the book examines both classical and modern theories of the emergence of the State, as well as the historical typology and evolution of the State over time. By applying a different approach, it seeks to overcome the confines of single disciplines, such as history, political science, sociology, law and anthropology among others. In practice, the book traces the history of the institution ‘state’ from the Antiquity to the Modern Age. Paev, K. The State from Antiquity to Modern Age: Theoretical and Historical Questions.

Annotation. The article analyzes the little-studied art of the Ukrainian publishing sign, which has a history of almost fifty years and is well known for its highly artistic works. An excursion into the past of the Ukrainian publishing label has been made, collecting documents scattered across various sources of reports on samples of the publishing labels, both known and in the vast majority of unknown authors, and we pay tribute to this important cultural heritage that has developed in the course of the European process. The publishing signs of the second half of XX – beginning of XXI centuries are described and their artistic features are analyzed. The art of the Ukrainian emblem, especially in the last century, has not been practically studied. Probably, the topic is considered too small to draw enough attention. Turning pages of the book, few people pay atten- tion to the publishing house, thanks to which we have the happy opportunity to hold it. The artistic decision of modern publishing signs, which often quite often has a small font character, is not striking. They are created mainly by artists, editorial staff, without paying much attention to this process. However, there are times when they turn out to be the work of talented young artists who, over time, become famous. For example, the well-known art publishing signs for the leading Kiev publishing houses "Art" (artist V. E. Perevalsky) and "Rainbow" (artist O. I. Gubarev), created at that time by young graphic artists, who are now well-known folk artists of Ukraine. However, the art of the sign is an important component of book graphics, it does not lose its relevance at a new stage of society and deserves in-depth study.

Book Culture

The history of publishing in Lithuania begins with the early formation of the Lithuanian state in the 13th century. As the state was taking shape over many centuries, its name, government, and territory kept changing along with its culture and the prevailing language of writing and printing. Geographically spread across Central and Eastern Europe, the state was multinational, its multilayered culture shaped by the synthesis of the Latin and Greek civilizations. Furthermore, the state was multiconfessional: both Latin and Orthodox Christianity were evolving in its territory. These historical circumstances led to the emergence of a unique book culture at the end of the manuscript book period (the late 15th and the early 16th century). In the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (GDL), writing centers were formed that later frequently became printing houses; books were written in Latin, Church Slavonic, and Ruthenian, with two writing systems (Latin and Cyrillic) coexisting, and their texts and artistic design reflected the interaction of Western and Eastern Christianity in the GDL. During the period of the printed book, the GDL, though remote from the most important Western European publishing centers, was affected by the general tendencies of the Renaissance, Reformation, Baroque, and Enlightenment culture through the Roman Catholic Church and integration processes. During the 16th–18th centuries, publications in Latin, Ruthenian, and Polish prevailed in the GDL. In the 16th–17th centuries, about half of the press production were Latin books that spread along with Renaissance ideas and the Europeanization of the state, while the Ruthenian written language (one of the official state languages) was developed. After the Union of Lublin was signed in 1569, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth promoted the integration processes in public life, manifested by the emergence of the Polish language and the spread of Polish books as well as the growth of publishing in the 18th century. In the 16th century, several Lithuanian writers emerged in Prussian Lithuania (or Lithuania Minor), the region of the Prussian state populated by Lithuanians. A unique tradition of writing and publishing had flourished there until the start of World War II. In 1795, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth disappeared from the map of Europe and a larger part of the GDL lands was annexed to the Russian Empire. However, Vilnius, a seat of old printing and book culture traditions, managed to survive as an important publishing center of the eastern periphery of Central Europe, and as a city fostering publishing in the Polish, Hebrew, and Yiddish languages. In the early 19th century, the main forces of authors, publishers, book producers, and distributors of Lithuanian books began to concentrate in Lithuania. In 1918, after the restoration of an independent state of Lithuania, new conditions arose to benefit the development of book publishing. The Lithuanian tradition of publishing, owing to a renewed printing industry and the expansion of a publishing house and bookstore network, significantly strengthened. Between 1940 and 1990, the country suffered a half-century occupation (the occupation of the Nazi Germans in 1941–1945; the rest was the Soviet occupation) during which the Jewish national minority was destroyed, the Poles were evicted from the Vilnius region, the Germans were expelled from the Klaipėda region, and Sovietization and Russification were enforced in the sphere of civic thought. In Soviet Lithuania, although all the publishing houses belonged to the state and were ideologically controlled, a core of publishing professionals emerged who, after Lithuania regained its independence in 1990, readily joined the publishing industry developing under free market conditions.

The changing character of immigration over time in Tripura led to a huge demographic transition which is rare in the demographic history of the world. The study attempted to assess the distribution of documented Bangladeshi immigrants in Tripura and measure the trend and pattern of Bangladeshi immigration in the state. The study was based on secondary data computed from the migration tables under the D-series of census reports (1991,2001 and 2011) to deal with the study's objectives. The study has explored that almost 99 per cent of the total reported immigrants were from Bangladesh. The results revealed that female counterparts had outstripped the male Bangladeshi immigrants while the overall size of the immigrants was diminishing.

Political Science Journals

Legislative scholars have a history of stepping back occasionally to examine the development and state of the sub-discipline (Budge 1973; Gamm and Huber 2002; Loewenberg, Patterson, and Jewell 1985; Mezey 1993; Morris-Jones 1983; Pasquino 1973; Patterson 1989). Many of these existing reviews, although valuable, are predominantly of a qualitative and subjective nature and are, in most cases, now dated. This paper provides a bibliometrical analysis of the state of legislative studies in the United States and Europe by exploring the content of eight political science journals. I looked at six general political science journals, three originating in the United States and three in Europe, as well as the content of two legislative studies journals—the American-basedLegislative Studies Quarterlyand the British-basedJournal of Legislative Studies.

The article is devoted to the typology of the state. The main attention is paid to three main approaches to the typology of the state: formational, civilizational, and legal. In many respects, the typology is the result of the description of certain phenomena and their comparison. Based on this, typology problems arise in all sciences that deal with extremely heterogeneous sets of usually discrete objects and solve the problem of orderly description and explanation of these sets. However, it does not matter to which group of sciences these sets and objects belong. These can be both natural sciences (chemistry and biology) and humanities (psychology and linguistics), and social sciences (sociology). In particular, in Western social thought, tendencies to rethink typology appear in both concepts of models of history and models of culture. In contrast, Marxism gave rise to the doctrine of social formations, which was associated with the separation of economic and historical types of society, which were based on certain production relations. It is using the methods of typology, Marxist sociology singled out certain structural units of the historical process, which allowed to formulate a certain, well-argued, explanation of the history of many historical types of society and culture, the existence of various systems within certain social formations. And although the economic fetish inherent in Marxist sociology largely led to the purely one-sided nature of Marxist philosophy, it was its proponents who first raised the question of historical types of state at the scientific level, the first attempt to apply typology to political science. As a result, there was such a category as the typology of the state – the differentiation of groups of states on common features that determine the essential characteristics of these groups of states. In this case, the typology acts, in essence, as a reflection of the process of historically inevitable change of some types of state and law to others, and therefore is one of the most important techniques or means of learning the historical process of state and law. Problems of state typology are traditionally studied by the theory of state and law. At the same time, until now, two approaches have traditionally been distinguished: formational and civilizational. Within the framework of the first approach, the typology of the state is identified with its genesis. The second approach identifies the state and civilization. However, in modern political science, processes have begun in which scholars try to consider the types of state not only in the context of civilizations or social formations but also in the actual legal aspect. Within the legal approach to the typology of the state, several criteria are distinguished. According to the historical criterion, we can distinguish such types of state as primary, evolutionary, bureaucratic, and minimal. Keywords: type of state; typology of the state; formational approach to the typology of the state; civilizational approach to the typology of the state; civilization; formation.

RESUMO Objetivo: O presente ensaio tem o propósito de investigar a Ordem ao longo do tempo, a sua relação com as diversas concepções sobre a normatividade e a ordem jurídica, buscando-se identificar os elementos que permaneceram ao longo da história, a fim de avançar na compreensão ontológica do Direito. Metodologia: Este trabalho foi desenvolvido por meios dedutivos, com base em aporte bibliográfico interdisciplinar nos campos da Psicologia, da Biologia Evolutiva, da História da Ciência Política, da Filosofia, da História do Direito e da Teoria do Direito, com o propósito de articular os conhecimentos oriundos dessas distintas matrizes do conhecimento. Resultados: Identificou-se uma ontologia quadridimensional do Direito, constituída pelas já conhecidas vertentes dos fatos, dos valores e das normas, às quais se deve também acrescentar as <<valências>> (carga de valor que se dá a cada valor), que, ao serem articuladas por meio de <<normas de modificação e de julgamento> (HART), destacam a espécie jurídica, do gênero normativo, singularizando-o. Contribuições: A principal contribuição desta pesquisa é o delineamento de novos contornos para a antiga questão acerca da natureza do Direito, havendo-se trilhado um caminho <<de fora para dentro>>, por meio do qual, espera-se contribuir para identificar os elementos objetivos definidores da ordem jurídica sem, por outro lado, vir a recair em concepções positivistas, uma vez quecabe à liberdade humana, dentro de certos limiares naturais, articular suas valências, tanto em nível individual quanto social. Palavras-chave: Natureza do Direito; Teoria do Direito; Ontologia do Direito; História do Direito. ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of this essay is to investigate the Order over time, its relationship with the different conceptions about normativity and the legal order, seeking to identify the elements that have remained throughout history, in order to advance in ontological understanding of law. Methodology: This work was developed by deductive means, based on an interdisciplinary bibliographic contribution in the fields of Psychology, Evolutionary Biology, History of Political Science, Philosophy, History of Law and Theory of Law, with the purpose of articulating the knowledge from these different knowledge matrices.Results: A four-dimensional ontology of law was identified, constituted by the already known aspects of facts, values and norms, to which must also be added the «valences >> (the value given to each value), which , when articulated through << rules of modification and judgment> (HART), they detach the legal species, from the normative genre, making it unique. Contributions: The main contribution of this research is to delineate new outlines for the old question about the nature of Law, having followed a path << from outside to inside >>, through which it is expected to contribute to identify the objective elements that define the legal order without, on the other hand, falling into positivist conceptions, since it is up to human freedom, within certain natural thresholds, to articulate its valences, both at the individual and social levels. Keywords: Nature of Law; Theory of Law; Ontology of Law; History of Law.
