metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article discusses versions of fighting for the political future of the world, the results of
  which are not yet predetermined. Development of the political process in the twenty-first century
  illustrates that the world is entering a stage of permanent crisis of liberal democracy. The
  democratic wave of the 1990s died out and led only to the growth of right-wing extremism, nihilism
  and nationalism all over the world. It happened not only in the governments that arose
  out of dictatorships at the end of the twentieth century, but also in some old democracies.
  Democracy has ceased to cultivate authoritative and strong leaders. Society cannot always be
  in transformation or trauma state. Sooner or later a new reality will be built. Social anomia is
  not a permanent process, as it would inevitably become part of normative system. The new
  authoritarianism is cultivated by the ineffectiveness of power, disbelief in its ability to curb the
  situation of chaos and discontent, and to bring life back to normal. Today, no country in the
  world can be a model for imitation. There is not any ideal that others would like to borrow.
  Building a new ideal of civilizational development is fixed through the disclosure of a complex
  ethical system in which value conflict acts as an inevitable component. Most of the post-Soviet
  countries failed to advance their societies to a more suitable level of economy, to reach the positions
  dictated by the modern information age, and to provide the population with new high
  standards of living. Convergent trends are becoming increasingly noticeable in the Republic of
  Belarus with authoritarian rule. Evolutionary nature is inherent in the Belarusian transformation.
  It is based on the mentality of the people and the social responsibility of government. The
  post-Soviet world is not in a hurry to part with acquired sovereignty and is not ready to share
  even a part of its rights with supranational structures.
