{"title":"Screening Methodology: Visualization in Digital Humanities","authors":"E. Shevelev","doi":"10.15535/290","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15535/290","url":null,"abstract":"The paper problematizes methodological status of visualization in digital humanities . Digital humanities offer a critical comprehension of the social, epistemological and methodological effects of using computer in contemporary humanities. The process of knowledge production is considered here in the light of computation. It turns out to be shared between human thinking, technologies, digital networks, working of algorithms and program code. In such conditions visualization becomes a point of junction between a human and a computer. The production of meanings and interpretations here becomes especially intensive. At the same time orders and strategies of visualization used in various disciplines of humanities are often not comprehended critically by the scholars. In such situation posing methodological questions to digital visualization from the point of constructionism is especially timely. The starting point for this paper was the challenges we faced in the Obninsk digital project. In order to develop visual analytical tools we conducted our research on the existing visualization experience in different digital humanities projects. With the help of comparative analysis we identified and described the main problems and effects of digital visualization use. Basing on the results of the analysis, we will show how turning to the idea of data visualization reduc es epistemological potential of digital visualization in the humanities, and how new visual technologies change practices of work with visualizations. We will show also how using multidisciplinary approach, the order and methodology of kno wledge production can be changed through visualization technologies.","PeriodicalId":375014,"journal":{"name":"Russian Academic Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126088255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Geopolitics of Kazakhstan: Theory and Practice","authors":"I. Ivanov, V. Volovoj","doi":"10.15535/276","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15535/276","url":null,"abstract":"Article analyzes geopolitics of Kazakhstan, examines how it should look like in accordance with classic geopolitical theory and howit does look in practice, in particular in case of Kazakhstan membership in the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) and Shanghai CooperationOrganization (SCO), which reflects Kazakh geostrategy in relations with Russia and China as the main factors of stabilityin Central Asia. Additional value of the article is that it is purely geopolitical while geopolitical method (theory) is usually misunderstoodin the discipline of international relations, used rather freely often being confused with realistic paradigm. Also CentralAsia as an object of analysis is not in the centre of global academic discourse and any additional study in the field of CA geopoliticsbroadens understanding of the external and internal political process in the region. The study showed that Kazakh geopolitics ispredetermined to be continental, Heartland oriented, because Kazakhstan is located in the closest neighborhood of Russia and is asteppe land with the conservative identity totally different to the one of see powers. Therefore its geopolitical gravitation towardsstrategic alliance with Moscow is very strong and even more strengthened by its president Nursultan Nazarbayev as a consistent partisanof the Russian geopolitical theory called Eurasism. Kazakhstan membership in EEU, initially initiated by Nazarbayev, supportsthe idea that geopolitical union with Russia is the essence of Kazakh geostrategy. At the same time Kazakhstan has good relationswith China, but they are of secondary importance for Astana in comparison to cooperation with Russia. SCO is a comfortable platformfor Kazakhstan to find its place in geopolitical dialogue of Moscow and Beijing. The problem is that nobody knows how Kazakhforeign policy will look like after Nazarbayev leaves the office, but classic geopolitical theory says that geopolitical orientation ofKazakhstan will hardly change in the long run because its c onservative land identity is too strong.","PeriodicalId":375014,"journal":{"name":"Russian Academic Journal","volume":"77 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114110292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
