Essence of Time ((ロシア語:''Суть времени'')) is a Russian communist movement, founded and led by political scientist, philosopher and theater director Sergei Kurginyan. ==Principles== The movement's ideology is a mixture of Russian patriotic ideas with communism elements, giving Russia a messianist role in the global scale. Its principles are explained in ''The manifesto of the movement "Essence of Time"''.〔 The manifesto declares that the Dissolution of the Soviet Union was a great tragedy. The objective of the movement is to restitute the USSR in a better and more capable form. The ascertainment of what responsible for the USSR's fall is considered a key step in this process. According to Kurginyan, capitalism is inherently incompatible with Russian historical and cultural heritage. Since the fall of the USSR in 1991 "the capitalism in Russia has not built anything, and destroyed everything", but, fortunately, after 20 years, Russia is slowly starting to "wake up". The Fall of the USSR was just a part of a game, played by the postmodern entities against "the history and humanity". Kurginyan considers his manifesto to be a new Communist manifesto, analysis of new bourgeoisie, whose nature has evolved since Marx's time. The movement is grounded in modern philosophy and incorporates the ideas of Karl Marx, Max Weber, Erich Fromm, Antonio Gramsci, Alexander Bogdanov, Viktor Frankl, and others. One of the main principles of the movement's ideology is the ascription of great importance to the human spirit as a philosophical category, which is considered to be linked directly to the question of the ascent of humanity. The project subscribes to conception of ''uber-modernity'' (in Russian сверхмодерн, tr. sverkhmodern), not to be confused with post-modernity, and on this principle hopes to build a new historical project for Russia. The project conceives of a great historical role for Russia in moving the world out of the global crisis of capitalism, based on the country's experience of alternatives to capitalist modernity and so-called post-modernity). The movement seeks to unite people with socialist and communist political views as well as those with patriotic views and Orthodox Christian values, hoping on this basis to create a spiritual synthesis. One of the main aims of the movement is a revival of the Soviet Union on new principles, taking into account the mistakes of the past (the project is thus dubbed ''USSR 2.0''). EoT envisions a new red union state - a union of equal nations where the Russian nation plays the role of the state's core. The ultimate goal of the movement is the bringing to life the best of communism's ideas -namely a state of being in society which provides for the awakening and development of the higher creative abilities of every human being. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Essence of Time (movement)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
