Wyjątkowa czy modułowa? Armeńska aksamitna rewolucja w perspektywie porównawczej
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
Większość poprzednich rewolucji w przestrzeni postsowieckiej koncentrowała się wokół dwóch wymiarów: sprzeciwu wobec nadużywania władzy i woli zmiany trajektorii zewnętrznej. Armeńska aksamitna rewolucja wskazała na zmianę aksjologii rewolucji. Obywatelskie nieposłuszeństwo koncentrowało się jedynie na protestach przeciw skorumpowanemu systemowi politycznemu, opartemu na klientelizmie i patronażu. Nie zajmowano się w nim w sposób zasadniczy żadnymi kwestiami związanymi z sytuacją międzynarodową. W wypowiedziach aktywiści unikali odniesień do polityki zagranicznej i zmiany kierunku geopolitycznego. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie zbieżnych i odrębnych cech charakteryzujących aksamitną rewolucję w porównaniu z przełomowymi wydarzeniami zaklasyfikowanymi jako rewolucje w przestrzeni postsowieckiej po 1989 r. Pytanie badawcze dotyczy tego, w jaki sposób cechy aksamitnej rewolucji wyróżniają się na tle wcześniejszych rewolucyjnych zmian władzy w przestrzeni postsowieckiej i w jakim stopniu są one zbieżne. Ramy teoretyczne opierają się na wielowymiarowej naukowej refleksji nad czynnikami charakteryzującymi poszczególne fale rewolucyjne w przestrzeni postsowieckiej. Wykorzystując bogate osiągnięcia badań nad Jesienią Narodów, kolorowymi rewolucjami i ukraińską rewolucją godności, esej ma na celu wpisanie unikalnych i modułowych czynników charakteryzujących ormiańską aksamitną rewolucję w szersze spektrum teoretycznych i praktycznych rozważań na temat politycznych przełomów w przestrzeni postsowieckiej.(abstrakt oryginalny)
Most of the previous revolutions in the post-Soviet sphere were concentrated around two dimensions: reluctance to challenge abuses of power and the will to redirect the external trajectory. The Armenian Velvet Revolution marked the change of the axiology of revolution. Civil disobedience was only focused on the corrupt political system based on clientelism and patronage. It was not addressing any issues related to the international situation. In statements, activists avoided references to foreign policy and change of geopolitical direction. The purpose of the paper is to identify convergent and separate features characterizing the Velvet Revolution in comparison with breakthroughs classified as revolutions in the post-Soviet space after 1989. The research question is how the Armenian Velvet Revolution's features stand out from previous revolutionary changes of power in the post-Soviet space, and to what extent they are convergent. The theoretical framework is based on multi-dimensional academic reflection on the factors characterizing particular revolutionary waves in post-Soviet space. Using comparatively the rich achievements of study on the Autumn of Nations, Color Revolutions, and Ukrainian Revolution of Dignity, this essay aims to inscribe the unique and modular factors characterizing the Armenian Velvet Revolution into a broader spectrum of theoretical and practical considerations on political breakthroughs in post-Soviet space.
