The paper refers to two apparently unrelated situations, that of a political crisis and a crisis of politicality. The author attempts to provide evidence for the fact that the etiology of these crisis situations is related to the democratic paradigm being exhausted. The combination of the instrumental and teleological activity of the actors is decisive for the content of mobilization, which is one of the fundamental reasons for both political crises and the crisis of politicality.

The author undertakes to the contemporary global economic transformation and the universal middle class being shy this pcess (the notion of the ‘middle class’ is not used in its classic meaning here, and it rather refers to the largest group of people who are well-settled in the e-civilization). In his opinion, this universal middle class is not a homogenous group. He also emphasizes the profound role of the ethical level represented by making up a TIG (Topic Information Group – a group whose task is to collect and store the information which is civilizationally significant and has the properties of scarce resources).

This paper refers to the issue of the forming of societies in former satellite states of totalitarian communism, which turned to the democratic model of political decision- making and exercising authority. The paper is not strictly historical, although it is based on historical materials, nor is it a commentary on current political events. I am trying to show that the implementation of the representational principle in democratic systems of these states creates a loophole in the citizens’ competence and to a certain extent makes its applicability senseless. The citizens, who have so far been equal before the law, are now (theoretically) equal before their representatives. The latter represent concrete groups of citizens who should vote for them on the basis of an electoral system (constituency). The antidote to neutralize the consequences of this apory is provided by the principle of deliberativeness as the tool leading the forming society and its representatives to sovereign political decisions.
