Sorba O. Space-Time Dimensions of Politics: Principles of Realization.

The thesis is a comprehensive study of the ways the space-and-time dimesions of politics are formed, perceived and lived out. In the present work a new, integral and original concept of the political space and time is set up. Also, a new understanding of the categories of political space and time is proposed on the three levels of analysis: space-time of the politological discourse, space-time of the political dimension of human existence, space-time of the intersubjective political structures. Described are the mechanisms of the temporal variability of political space. The functioning of these mechanisms is studied using the methodological instruments of the poststructuralism and postmodernism, specifically the philosophical distinction (fr. differаnce).
