This book is a collection of the selected proceedings of the 4th International Conference “Human Being in Contemporary Philosophical Conceptions,” which was held under the patronage of UNESCO at Volgograd State University (Russia) on May 28–31, 2007. In the letter to the organizers, Mr. Koïchiro Matsuura wrote: “I should like to congratulate you on this important initiative to promote philosophical reflection, which is one of the central objectives of UNESCO’s Intersectoral Strategy on Philosophy.” There is an interesting fact: the 19th World Congress of Philosophy in Moscow (1993) had no session on philosophical anthropology, the next Congress in Boston (1998) had one such sess...
May 5, 2018 marked the 200th anniversary of the birth of Karl Heinrich Marx, German scientist, philosopher, economist, and sociologist. His creative genius created a system-functional model of contemporary society, defined its socio-economic character, and formulated scientific and philosophical approaches for its cognition.

This book explains complex scientific concepts using simple and understandable illustrations and practical examples. For example, the competition between countries in the world economy is compared to motor racing, time savings are illustrated through the example of a masquerade ball, and the cyclical effect of time on the economy is reflected through the prism of changing seasons. It presents amazing phenomena and processes of economic time, including 'economic vintage', 'the time machine in the economy', 'youth' and 'old age' of the economy, its 'growing up', 'the economic calendar', 'catching up', and 'forward-looking' development. This book will therefore be interesting not only to members of the scientific community but also to non-academic readers — to everyone who wants to understand the nature of economic time.
Provides: over 26,000 academic institutions, 150,000 staff and officials; extensive coverage of universities, colleges and other centres of learning; and detailed information on over 400 international cultural, scientific and educational organizations.
