The article is devoted to the study of the role of marine ecology protection in the modern political course of China. Today, the ocean has great importance in Chinese development from an economic, energy, and resource point of view. However, its benefits are threatened by the environmental problems caused by anthropogenic pressure due to the development of human society, population growth, and industry. Currently, China faces plastic, waste, and oil pollution, illegal activities leading to the depletion of food resources, increasing ocean acidification due to air pollution, and degradation of the coastal environment. Awareness of the importance of the ocean for domestic and foreign policy forces China to take measures to protect it. At the same time, since the environmental agenda in modern international relations acts both as an instrument of pressure and as a means of political rise, it is effectively used by China in the struggle for global leadership both in the environmental protection sphere and in the world in general. Using the environmental agenda as a peaceful means of rising, China seeks to transform the current global order while showing itself as a responsible world leader.
文章致力于研究海洋生态保护在中国现代政治进程中的作用。今天,从经济、能源和资源的角度来看,海洋对中国的发展具有重要意义。然而,由于人类社会的发展、人口的增长和工业的发展,人为压力造成的环境问题威胁着海洋的利益。目前,中国面临着塑料、垃圾和石油污染,非法活动导致食物资源枯竭,空气污染导致海洋酸化加剧,以及沿海环境退化等问题。由于意识到海洋对国内和外交政策的重要性,中国不得不采取措施保护海洋。同时,由于环境议程在现代国际关系中既是施压的工具,也是政治崛起的手段,因此中国在环境保护领域和整个世界争夺全球领导地位的斗争中有效地利用了环境议程。中国将环境议程作为和平崛起的手段,试图改变当前的全球秩序,同时展示自己是一个负责任的世界领导者。

This article explores the escalating impact of climate change and the global green transition on international relations, particularly in the aftermath of the Paris Agreement in 2015. While physical risks stemming directly from climate change consequences are a concern, the rise of transition risks associated with the global green shift poses significant threats to societies, political systems, and economies. The current emissions reduction targets outlined in the Paris Agreement are deemed inadequate to address the mounting physical risks, underscoring the imperative of enhancing states’ climate security. Transition risks are intricately linked to the fragmentation of global politics, driven by varying climate ambitions and disagreements on decarbonization methods among states. Fault lines emerge based on factors such as fossil fuel abundance, states’ positions in energy geopolitics, socio-economic development levels, utilization of green transition opportunities, and participation in international climate agreements. In this context, Russia confronts numerous risks, compelling the nation to articulate and advocate its unique vision of decarbonization while fostering alliances with non-Western states in this critical domain.
本文探讨了气候变化和全球绿色转型对国际关系不断升级的影响,尤其是在 2015 年《巴黎协定》之后。虽然气候变化后果直接导致的有形风险令人担忧,但与全球绿色转型相关的转型风险的上升对社会、政治制度和经济构成了重大威胁。巴黎协定》中概述的当前减排目标被认为不足以应对日益加剧的有形风险,这凸显了加强各国气候安全的必要性。过渡风险与全球政治的支离破碎密切相关,而全球政治的支离破碎是由各国不同的气候雄心和对去碳化方法的分歧所驱动的。化石燃料的丰富程度、国家在能源地缘政治中的地位、社会经济发展水平、绿色转型机会的利用以及对国际气候协议的参与程度等因素都会导致断层线的出现。在此背景下,俄罗斯面临着众多风险,这迫使该国在这一关键领域与非西方国家结盟的同时,必须阐明并倡导其独特的去碳化愿景。

The article is devoted to the issues of preventing the novel coronavirus infection in Georgia during the pandemic and the influence of the religious judgments of the Georgian Orthodox Church on them. Based on data from open sources the article describes the state of the healthcare system in Georgia during the coronavirus pandemic. A retrospective analysis of the reform of the country’s healthcare system in the post-Soviet period was performed, shedding light on its readiness for significant challenges, such as the pandemic. Thereby the reasons for the population’s distrust of the public healthcare system in general and the preventive measures it offers in the form of vaccination become clear. Much attention is paid to the relationship between the state and the church, as well as their attitude to the issues of preventing infection through vaccination and influencing public opinion. A set of measures taken by the government to localize the infection, aimed at preventing its further spread, is analyzed. Against the background of a description of the attitude of the clergy to the coronavirus pandemic in other countries, both the main position of the Georgian Orthodox Church regarding the disease and preventive measures, as well as the views of individual hierarchs, which do not always coincide with the official opinion of the Synod, are demonstrated. In addition, the author illustrates the history of the protest movement in Georgia during the pandemic, associated with state policy regarding measures to prevent the novel coronavirus infection. Separately, information is presented from the author’s field material obtained from informants during the pandemic, demonstrating different views on the issues of observance of religious rituals during the pandemic, trust in the healthcare system, and vaccination as a preventive measure supported by the state. In conclusion, the consequences about the issues posed by the coronavirus pandemic to the Georgian government are demonstrated, such as the availability and quality of medical care, as well as the interaction of the institutions of the secular state and the Georgian Orthodox Church.
文章专门讨论了大流行期间格鲁吉亚预防新型冠状病毒感染的问题,以及格鲁吉亚东正教会的宗教判断对这些问题的影响。根据公开来源的数据,文章描述了冠状病毒大流行期间格鲁吉亚医疗保健系统的状况。文章对后苏联时期格鲁吉亚医疗保健系统的改革进行了回顾性分析,揭示了该系统应对大流行病等重大挑战的准备情况。由此,人们对公共医疗系统的总体不信任及其以疫苗接种形式提供的预防措施的原因也变得清晰起来。国家与教会之间的关系,以及他们对通过接种疫苗预防感染和影响公众舆论问题的态度,也受到了极大关注。分析了政府为防止感染进一步扩散而采取的一系列本地化措施。在介绍其他国家神职人员对冠状病毒大流行的态度的背景下,作者展示了格鲁吉亚东正教会对该疾病和预防措施的主要立场,以及个别主教的观点,这些观点并不总是与主教会议的官方意见一致。此外,作者还介绍了大流行病期间格鲁吉亚抗议运动的历史,以及与预防新型冠状病毒感染措施相关的国家政策。另外,作者还介绍了在大流行病期间从知情者那里获得的实地材料,这些材料表明了人们对大流行病期间遵守宗教仪式、对医疗保健系统的信任以及将疫苗接种作为国家支持的预防措施等问题的不同看法。最后,作者还展示了冠状病毒大流行给格鲁吉亚政府带来的后果,如医疗服务的可用性和质量,以及世俗国家机构和格鲁吉亚东正教会之间的互动。

This paper examines the response of political communities to the COVID-19 pandemic. Using methodological approaches such as political globalism, world-system and structural-functional analysis, the author examines the political conditions of nation-states for coping with the pandemic and its consequences. Within this framework, the problem of the systemic crisis of the modern state, the effectiveness of public administration and decision-making systems was also addressed. The focus was on issues of political development, considered in the context of the evolution of democracy, civic political participation, the role of non-governmental organisations and elites, and the relationship between values and goals in the global and national political agenda. The article also touches upon the problem of “infodemics.” The paper concludes with recommendations for adding an environmental component to the concept of national security.

EU Climate Leadership: Contradictions Inherent in Carbon Regulation 欧盟气候领导力:碳监管的内在矛盾
Pub Date : 2024-03-25 DOI: 10.46272/2587-8476-2023-14-4-75-90

The article analyzes the EU Carbon Border Adjustment mechanism (CBAM) through the lens of the EU’s aspiration to strengthen its leadership in fighting climate change. The introduction of CBAM is viewed as another step toward achieving the EU's goal of climate neutrality, which has become a standard for global development. By studying the internal and external dynamics of CBAM's implementation, the article aims to analyze its role as a tool for diplomatic and exemplary leadership. On the one hand, the EU seeks to protect European producers from producers from countries with lower climate standards. On the other hand, the EU’s desire to involve other countries in creating CBAM-style mechanisms is supposed to strengthen the EU’s leadership, contributing to the formation of multilateral “climate clubs” and the gradual revision of the existing climate regime. However, the article suggests that there are inherent contradictions in the EU's approach. While it seeks to protect its economy through CBAM, it also frames these measures within the narrative of multilateral cooperation. This dual approach poses challenges to the EU's leadership potential. The protectionist nature of CBAM makes other global players, primarily the U.S., follow the same path of taking protective measures. China is not willing to give up its own framing of the climate agenda due to its importance for the construction of China’s international identity. Russia’s perception of the climate change problem is infl uenced by its national interests and the structure of economy. The projection of regulatory power beyond the EU’s borders also provokes resistance from developing and least developed countries, which can seriously damage the EU’s role as a normative power.
文章从欧盟希望加强其在应对气候变化方面的领导地位的角度分析了欧盟碳边境调整机制(CBAM)。碳边境调整机制的引入被视为欧盟实现气候中和目标的又一步骤,而气候中和已成为全球发展的标准。通过研究实施 CBAM 的内部和外部动态,文章旨在分析其作为外交和示范领导工具的作用。一方面,欧盟寻求保护欧洲生产商免受气候标准较低国家生产商的影响。另一方面,欧盟希望让其他国家参与建立CBAM式的机制,从而加强欧盟的领导力,促进多边 "气候俱乐部 "的形成,并逐步修改现有的气候制度。然而,文章认为欧盟的做法存在内在矛盾。欧盟一方面寻求通过《生物多样性公约》保护本国经济,另一方面又将这些措施纳入多边合作的叙事中。这种双重方法对欧盟的领导潜力构成了挑战。CBAM 的保护主义性质使得其他全球参与者(主要是美国)也走上了采取保护措施的道路。由于气候议程对构建中国国际身份的重要性,中国不愿意放弃自己对气候议程的构想。俄罗斯对气候变化问题的认识受到其国家利益和经济结构的影响。将监管权力投射到欧盟边界之外也会激起发展中国家和最不发达国家的抵制,这可能会严重损害欧盟作为规范性大国的作用。

Energy Diplomacy in the Era of Energy Transition 能源转型时代的能源外交
Pub Date : 2024-03-25 DOI: 10.46272/2587-8476-2023-14-4-91-106

The development of international relations after the 1973 oil crisis was accompanied by the emergence of such phenomena and concepts as global and regional energy security, energy security of states, foreign energy policy and energy diplomacy. Institutionalization and development of mechanisms ensuring energy security – including global energy security – occurred and continues to occur under the conditions of dominance of hydrocarbon fossil fuels in the world energy balance, as well as in the context of energy consumption worldwide. The priorities of its provision at the global, regional and state levels were and are the security of demand, supply and transit of hydrocarbon raw materials, and the diversification of energy sources. After signing the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015, efforts are being made to accelerate the low-carbon transformation of the world economy and the pace of the global energy transition. This involves mechanisms for responsible investment, carbon regulation, greenhouse gas emissions management (climate management); uses a variety of socially significant interpretations of ongoing climate change. These processes are increasingly determining the foreign energy policy of states, international energy diplomacy and influencing the previously formed mechanisms for ensuring energy security. The article is aimed at generalization and systematization of the ongoing changes in the activities of both traditional international centers and institutes of global energy policy, and relatively new international platforms in the subject area under consideration, primarily the Conferences of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and their impact on energy policy and energy diplomacy.
随着 1973 年石油危机后国际关系的发展,出现了全球和地区能源安全、国家能源安全、对外能源政策和能源外交等现象和概念。确保能源安全(包括全球能源安全)机制的制度化和发展,是在碳氢化合物化石燃料在世界能源平衡中占主导地位的条件下,以及在全球能源消耗的背景下发生和继续发生的。在全球、地区和国家层面提供能源安全的优先事项过去是、现在也是碳氢化合物原材料的需求、供应和转运安全,以及能源来源的多样化。2015 年签署《巴黎气候协定》后,正在努力加快世界经济的低碳转型和全球能源转型的步伐。这涉及到负责任的投资、碳监管、温室气体排放管理(气候管理)等机制;使用了各种对正在发生的气候变化具有社会意义的解释。这些进程正日益决定着各国的对外能源政策、国际能源外交,并影响着先前形成的确保能源安全的机制。本文旨在概括和系统阐述全球能源政策传统国际中心和机构以及相关主题领域相对较新的国际平台(主要是《联合国气候变化框架公约》缔约方会议)的活动正在发生的变化及其对能源政策和能源外交的影响。

“Nuclear Winter” Hypothesis Research and Responsibilities in Nuclear Policy "核冬天 "假设研究与核政策中的责任
Pub Date : 2024-03-25 DOI: 10.46272/2587-8476-2023-14-4-149-160

In the 1980s, one of the fundamental topics of scientific debate was the discussion of the global consequences of nuclear war. At that time, the hypothesis of “nuclear winter” emerged, in which scientists attempted to analyse the theoretical possibility of a sharp cooling of the Earth after mass fires, and to find natural analogues of a potential climatic catastrophe. In the following decades, the “nuclear winter” hypothesis went through various stages of criticism and reassessment. In the early 2000s, studies of the problem became regional in nature, focusing mainly on the possible consequences of local nuclear conflicts. In this article, the authors analyse the stages of development of research on the “nuclear winter” hypothesis, focusing on the Russian and American approaches, and conclude that the body of work produced by American and Soviet scientists in 1983–1985 represents the first attempts by the scientific community to conceptualise the problem of responsible nuclear policy.
20 世纪 80 年代,科学辩论的基本话题之一是讨论核战争的全球后果。当时出现了 "核冬天 "假说,科学家们试图从理论上分析大火后地球急剧降温的可能性,并寻找潜在气候灾难的自然类似物。在随后的几十年里,"核冬天 "假说经历了不同阶段的批评和重新评估。21 世纪初,对这一问题的研究开始区域化,主要集中于局部核冲突可能造成的后果。在这篇文章中,作者分析了 "核冬天 "假说研究的发展阶段,重点是俄罗斯和美国的研究方法,并得出结论认为,美国和苏联科学家在 1983-1985 年期间所做的大量工作代表了科学界将负责任的核政策问题概念化的首次尝试。

“Neither Water, nor War:” the Problem of Fresh Water in International Relations of the First Quarter of the 21st Century "既不是水,也不是战争:"21 世纪第一季度国际关系中的淡水问题

In this article, the author compares the objective dynamics of changes in the state of the water problem since the beginning of the 21st century, which has continued to worsen in most regions of the world, and its foreign policy dimension, noting the transition from the global water alarmism of the 1990s to the challenges for small and medium powers, in solving the problems in which no major actor is yet actively interested. Fresh water, despite the slogans at the end of the last century about future water wars, the “blue oil” and the “new gold” of the 21ST century, has not become, and is unlikely to become, the cause of confrontation between great powers, while medium and small powers are still confine themselves to more traditional forms of conflict, including in the Tigris, the Euphrates and the Jordan basins, which have been seen for decades as a testing ground for future water wars. This does not negate the role of water bodies and ecosystems in promoting development or, conversely, in perpetuating the poverty and backwardness in entire regions. Waters remain in competition as an important source of water-intensive goods that can be converted into valuable assets – water-intensive goods, energy or the ability to achieve higher levels of the Human Development Index. And, of course, they can be used to exacerbate ethnic and political conflicts. This is where the potential of Russia, the world’s second water power, comes into play, both in terms of directly regulating regional water challenges and in influencing the approaches of international organizations and associations, in which Moscow plays a prominent role.
在这篇文章中,作者比较了自 21 世纪初以来水问题状况变化的客观动态--世界上大多数地区的水问题持续恶化--及其外交政策层面,注意到从 20 世纪 90 年代的全球水危言耸听过渡到中小强国面临的挑战,即解决尚无大国积极关注的问题。尽管上世纪末有人提出了未来的水战争、21 世纪的 "蓝色石油 "和 "新黄金 "等口号,但淡水并没有成为、也不可能成为大国之间对抗的原因,而中小强国仍然局限于更传统的冲突形式,包括底格里斯河、幼发拉底河和约旦河流域,几十年来,这些流域一直被视为未来水战争的试验场。这并不否认水体和生态系统在促进发展方面的作用,反之,也不否认它们在延续整个地区的贫困和落后方面的作用。水域作为水资源密集型产品的一个重要来源,仍然处于竞争之中,而这些产品可以转化为宝贵的资产--水资源密集型产品、能源或实现更高水平人类发展指数的能力。当然,水也可能被用来加剧种族和政治冲突。这正是世界第二水力大国俄罗斯的潜力所在,它既能直接调节地区水挑战,又能影响国际组织和协会的方法,而莫斯科在其中发挥着突出作用。

Food Security and Climate Agenda 粮食安全与气候议程
Pub Date : 2024-03-24 DOI: 10.46272/2587-8476-2023-14-4-37-51

In the era of globalization and the global distribution of goods, including food, food security is not always adequately considered, especially in the so-called global North. This approach contrasts sharply with the climate agenda, which focuses on the existential side of food security. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) reports that almost 12% of the world’s population is severely food insecure; 29% is moderately or severely food insecure; almost one in three people in the world (2.37 billion) do not have access to adequate nutrition, and the prevalence of malnutrition has reached 9.8% in 2021. These negative trends existed long before the coronavirus pandemic, which only aggravated the situation, causing food insecurity levels to spike in 2020 (up 1.5% from 2019). Food security is closely intertwined with other global problems of modernity, in particular, with the problem of climate change on Earth. In this regard, Russia’s role as a leading exporter of agro-food products, especially wheat, is great. The article considers the relationship between food security problems and climate change, analyzes the evolution of understanding of the food security problem and approaches to its solution. The factors affecting the state of food security in Russia are examines separately.
在全球化和全球商品(包括粮食)分配的时代,粮食安全问题并不总是得到充分考虑,尤其是在所谓的全球北方。这种做法与气候议程形成了鲜明对比,后者侧重于粮食安全的生存方面。联合国粮食及农业组织(FAO)报告称,全球近 12%的人口处于严重的粮食不安全状态;29%的人口处于中度或严重的粮食不安全状态;全球近三分之一的人口(23.7 亿人)无法获得充足的营养,营养不良率在 2021 年达到 9.8%。早在冠状病毒大流行之前,这些负面趋势就已存在,而冠状病毒大流行只会加剧这种状况,导致 2020 年粮食不安全水平飙升(比 2019 年上升 1.5%)。粮食安全与其他全球性现代问题,特别是地球气候变化问题密切相关。在这方面,俄罗斯作为农业食品(尤其是小麦)的主要出口国发挥着重要作用。文章探讨了粮食安全问题与气候变化之间的关系,分析了对粮食安全问题认识的演变及其解决方法。文章分别探讨了影响俄罗斯粮食安全状况的因素。
