Abstract
While globalization, in the opinion of Ulrich Beck, announces to the world "that politics has broken out from the categorical framework of the nation-state," Russian society is only beginning to adjust to the political space of a nation-state that is emerging from the ruins of empire. This rather eclectic juxtaposition of transnational, nation-state, and imperial principles in developing political consciousness can be clearly seen in society's response to some of the challenges posed by dynamic Modernity.
