New Challenges to Economy Security: the Convergence of Energy and Covid-19 Risks - The Demand for Cosmopolitan Politics
MONTENEGRIN JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS(2021)
Abstract
The article analyzes the new challenges to economy security expressed in the complication of risks, conditioned by the becoming complex socio-techno-natural realities and the nonlinearity. It is shown that nowadays the most significant risks to economy security are connected with the rise of `neo catastrophes', the causes of which lie with the systematic and often perverse effects of human activities; the current confrontational vector of the development of the world energy system that has deep roots in the contradiction between the global consumption of energy while its production is practically implemented at the national level. All these factors facilitated the convergence of the energy risks with the ones from other spheres - so, the convergence of energy and COVID-19 risks has been born. The author argues that the effective managing of the hybrid of the energypandemic risks lies in passing over from national to the cosmopolitan politics - in order to defend the national interests the nation-states need to act in a cosmopolitan way. The functional cosmopolitan politics could only be of a humanistic type - the preconditions of overcoming the existing confrontations in the development of the world energy system presuppose equal, codependent relations among the nations, friendly existence among humans and non-humans. There have appeared some grounds for it - humanely oriented economic practices based on the passage from the formal rationalism and pragmatism to the substantive rationality and values of inter-connection of all nations.
