Abstract

The use of topological optics to study the processes and phenomena of the modern world allows us to expand the range of political analysis of reality. The topological perspective of studying the space of network interactions in general and political relations in particular provides an opportunity to determine their qualitative characteristics, properties and configurations. An interdisciplinary approach based on an organic (or inorganic) combination on the way to a possible synthesis of the methodologies of political science and topology will allow specialists to get closer to understanding the essence of new processes and phenomena occurring in the political sphere. For example, topology resources are in demand in the process of analyzing the transformation of political relations and political communications.In the networked political space, political relations are realized as processes of interaction between political subjects and political actors. The political reality of modern society finds its embodiment in the political space.
