GAME THEORY IN POLITICAL SCIENCE. THE PLAYFUL NATURE OF THE CULTURE OF POWER

Abstract

Politics identifies and strengthens the ways of social development, and the law determines, giving them a universal and legal appearance. Such a coincidence of the regulatory possibilities of politics and law makes it possible to free the culture of exercising power from internal antipsychotics, focusing on social coexistence [Margaryan, 2019, 203,204]. All this keeps public policy not only from the cruel extremes of the political game but also forms the strategic thinking of the political elite in relation to radical changes. It is precisely the absence of such thinking that, marginalizing the socio-political order of countries in a democratic transition (including Armenia), and being tempted by the radical transformation of linear liberalization, the political elite ignores its function of social responsibility like Pierre Menard, the hero of Jorge Luis Borges, manages to rewrite Cervantes' novel “Don Quixote”. Being the greatest expert on the development of game logic in the culture of exercising power through a literary text, Borges shows that Pierre Menard, however, makes a lot of effort, but after finishing his essay, discovers that the new novel he created copies the original one. However, 300 years have passed since the publication of Don Quixote, and the same words, images, language thinking and strategy of exercising power are perceived differently, therefore, the new novel could not be equivalent: people have changed over time, and with them the perception of the game politics of the culture of power has changed either.
