I have read your interview in Regnum, which Michel B. linked in a comment on his article about the Archangelsk region's development and Global Villages.
I see the question: "But is it really possible that people move to live in countryside? Is it a story from fantasy novel?"
While this may make reference to the Anastasia books, I do think that the general trend that is being promoted in those books (I do recommend you read them) is that of returning to the villages and becoming self-sufficient in terms of food. There is nothing advocating that the exchange of information is in any way an inferior activity or is unwanted - on the contrary, much the same arguments are made in Megre's books as in your interview, for people returning to the countryside.
What makes you say that it "seems not to be the answer to todays complex realities and challenges", and that perhaps it "misses important elements of our global connectedness and cooperation"?
Certainly what's written in the books does not preclude that connectedness or make less of its importance.
What I am saying is not that we maybe have the solution there in that movement, but for sure there can be synergies... ?
We shall talk about this some more when the opportunity arises :)

welcome and good you found this place.
I see that you are promoting global villages in Russia, from an article Michel Bauwens published on the P2P Foundation's blog.
This brings to mind a movement that is growing - especially in Russia - around a series of books by Vladimir Megre. The first one of the books is titled "Anastasia" and there are others. I found them interesting to read, and what's more - they promote a return to personal self-sufficiency in villages made up of plots of one hectar each to supply all the needs of a family.
Check out the books in English:

And I see they are also available in German from Amazon:
