Between 1950 and 1990, an estimated 10 million children and adolescents between the ages of 2 and 14 were sent to these institutions for 6 weeks for recreational purposes and cared for there. The theoretical framework of the article is formed by the concepts of institutional rationality and social communication. It is assumed that institutions follow certain criteria of rationality and guiding ideas, while it is up to social communication to enforcethese criteria in practice. The article explores the questions of how former “Verschickungskinder” describe their stay, what image of the institutional structure is visible in their experiences and how big the discrepancy is between the guiding ideas of the sending-away-system and the reality experienced by the children. The “Initiative der Verschickungskinder” mainly focuses on the social control imposed by these institutions. However, their criticism resonates with the idea and expectation that the institutional purpose must not be exhausted in social control. Rather, institutions of child and youth welfare are supposed to stand for care, development and organizational clarity. Social communication is therefore understood both as social control and as an expression of social fantasy and creative imagination. In every critique, then, there is the design of a better order.Keywords: Sent-Away-Children; Social Communication and Social Criticism, Rationality Criteria and Total Institutions, Coming to Terms with the Past","PeriodicalId":222739,"journal":{"name":"Social Communications: Theory and Practice","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127588037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since today in the philosophical fields (metaphysics, nonclassical physics (quantum), and classical physics) there are no units of analysis and measurement of synergetic processes and phenomena in quantum journalism (quantum communication), further within holism and the author's concept of Unity it is proposed to create a new \"1 hall\", or \"one holism\". The range of analysis and measurement that form the unit \"1 hall\" should be considered the manifestations of the impact on the environment of a portion of energy (quantum) in the form of intensity and strength of changes that such energy (quantum) causes information flow.Conclusions. According to the results of the analytical review of existing ideas on measurement, it is appropriate to state ambivalent tendencies to identify the criteria for forming an idea of the unit of analysis and the unit of measurement in quantum journalism (more broadly -in the theory of quantum communication). On the one hand, measurement in quantum journalism is inexpedient. On the other hand, such a measurement is possible. From the standpoint of materialism, measurement in quantum journalism is possible thanks to digital indicators. From the point of view of metaphysics, measurement is possible taking into account the synergetic unity as a result of the combination of synergetic-convergent and cross-transmedia characteristics of information processes due to the unit \"hall\" (holism).Key words: quantum journalism, kyuzhur, measurement, unit of analysis, unit of measurement, identification of criteria.","PeriodicalId":222739,"journal":{"name":"Social Communications: Theory and Practice","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122381020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials &methods. The study has used a set of general scientific research methods (analysis, classification, systematization, explanation) in order to analyze scientific sources, to generalize research data, to define concepts. Results &discussions. The scientific interest of social psychology and sociolinguistics is aimed at studying the following aspects of non-institutional military discourse: 1)intentional (intentions, strategies, plans), namely, cultural differentiation, construction and protection of personal identity; 2)mainstreaming (embodiment of intentions in the sign-symbolic space of discourse), for example, appeal to metaphorical models, actualization of the concept WAR and its components; 3)pragmatic, namely, adaptation of military servicemen to combat stress, psychological protection from the destructive effects of a traumatic situation;4)identifying (recognition and understanding of meanings, values, construction of identity), notably, creation of a single cultural and symbolic space of a separate military community, construction of the opposition “friend foe”;5)contextual (expansion of the semantic field on the basis of socio-cultural, historical and other contexts),which is reflected in the information and psychological confrontation during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict;6)emotional, such as the definition of emotional and semantic dominance that is peculiar to military discourse. In this perspective, non-institutional military discourse can serve as a material for studying the goal-setting of ideology in society. Principles of critical discourse analysis developed by T.Van Dijk is especially relevant for the study of the peculiarities of non-institutional military discourse during unjust, aggression wars aimed at conquering foreign countries.Due to the complexity and versatility of non-institutional military discourse it is also necessary to turn to another type of discursive analysis, which has the most empirically oriented approach and allows to focus on extensive psychological issues such as cognition, emotions, attitudes, values, prejudices, memory, motives; namely, discursive psychology.Conclusions. The focus on achieving the most effective and efficient implementation of the study requires recourse to discourse analysis as the methodological approach. The concept of critical discourse analysis developed by T.Van Dijk and discursive psychology are more relevant for the study of modern Ukrainian non-institutional military discourse.

The media companies and only them held the spaces for advertisers to reach thousands of people at the same time with their message. Once the monopoly has fallen, the revenues started dropping, the circulation of newspapers decreased deeply and the consumer’s attention moved to other platforms like social media, for example. Taking this into account, we intend to present here a discussion about the news business models, including revenue models, that are being adopted by some Brazilian industry examples. Our work is a didactic research considering business models is still an unsolved issue for this industry. Since there is no paradigm, what we present is a panorama of choices, remixes and customized adaptations. As ours research questions we have: RQ1: What kind of new business/revenue models are being adopted by media?RQ2: What are the differences between Brazilian big publishers and independent media strategies?To bring light and develop this questioning we start discussing innovation in journalistic industries. Also, we follow our discussion here with an outlook on the business models existent and the new ones that are being adopted or created by media companies. To end our work we present a list of strategies that are being used in mainstream firms from Brazil and also the ones that are created or adopted by the new companies that are born in the actual digital context. As our research method, we adopt the non-participant observation of the market and the companies here specified and the use of documents and media articles that present the strategies used by journalistic brands to face the revenue crisis. The main finding of the research isthat most of the companies are adopting the same strategies, in a “wave movement”, where once one companie gives it a try the other go with the flow.

The article examines the ways of transformation of key provisions from the pamphletsof Mykola Khvylovyi in the journalistic activity of the scientist Yurii Sherekh, the writer Oksana Zabuzhko and the theater director Vlad Troiitskyi. Ideas such as “psychological Europe”, “Asian renaissance” and “romance of vitalism” are taken into account.It is proved that the concept of “psychological Europe” is significantly transformed in the works of Yurii Sherekh and Oksana Zabuzhko. Unlike Mykola Khvylovyi, the diaspora scholar notes the impossibility of such a value orientation, because provincialism as a central set of Ukrainians (according to Yurii Sherekh), in fact denies this possibility.It is noted that Oksana Zabuzhko, on the other hand, continues to develop this determinant in her essays, agreeing with the pamphleteer, but in modern coordinates it is necessary to focus on psychological America, not Europe. Thus, two interpretive views on this concept are traced and substantiated that is complete denial and rewriting of the idea.The comprehension of “Asian Renaissance” and the “romance of vitalism” determinants is interpreted through skepticism and the impossibility of these processes (Yurii Sherekh), through the addition of the concept –“Afro-Asian Renaissance” –to the unconscious support and relevance of the idea in modern Ukrainian processes.Conclusions.The study confirms the development and longevity of the concepts that are implemented in journalism, because chronologically the article covered materials written in different periods –from the first decades of the twentieth century tothe first decades of the twenty-first century.","PeriodicalId":222739,"journal":{"name":"Social Communications: Theory and Practice","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129972153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In practice, not enough attention is paid to this issue, nor it is recognized as special and urgent, although due to the current number, and especially growing elderly population, their security problems will be greater and more present in society. Considering that elderly people a particularly vulnerable and discriminated category of the population, it is necessary to devise an adequate safety policy and establish an appropriate system of their protection. Community policing is recognized as a model of policing that can meet these requirements and adapt to the security needs of the elderly. This is because this concept is based on partnership with citizens and problem-oriented work. The police shouldbe open to community representatives pointing out their needs and highlighting security priorities, and the police can identify problems with them and initiate mechanisms for joint action.
