The relevance of this topic relates to the inclusion of Russia in global processes, when intercultural integration becomes one of the factors of transformation of the socio-cultural space under the influence of new rules and patterns of musical life. The purpose of this study is to analyze changes in the codes and meanings of popular songs of modern Russia. The novelty of the study is as follows. Based on the content analysis, general trends in the transformation of codes and meanings of popular songs in Russia from 1990 to 2021 are shown. The growth of listening to popular songs and comments on it was revealed, which indicates the scaling of the impact on the audience, especially on representatives of the younger generation. A decrease in the average age of performers was recorded. It is determined that the main theme of the songs is the theme of love, which is often presented in a tragic or vulgar context. Socially significant positive topics (patriotism, politics, childhood, youth, family) occur in fragments or in isolated cases. An increase in the number of lines of songs with a constant number of words since 2001 has been revealed with a drop in the share of disclosure of the theme of songs, which indicates the destruction of speech and general cultural norms, the desire of performers to “hype”, the growth of popularity, commercial benefits, and not to convey the meaning of the lyrics. The specifics of the song genre in Russia are shown for three periods: 1990-2000, 2001-2010, and 2011-2021. The “roaring”, “heavy-hearted” nineties with a sense of the breakdown of the social system, habitual personal relationships and social ties are replaced by pop “zero” with expectations of positive changes, freedom. The period since 2011 is characterized by a wide variety of stylistic trends and not just significant banality and mediocrity of the text, but also the glorification and justification of deviant behavior, the predominance of pessimistic and sexualized mood, aggression, turning into an insult. This leads to the fact that the song, as a “public singing” that unites and elevates people, becomes dysfunctional, destructive, destroying the personality (especially the emerging one), social ties, the social system, the socio-cultural space of the country as a space of norms and rules. The direction of further research is related to the development of methodological recommendations on the criteria for censoring the musical space in order to restore the speech norm and the traditional Russian system of values.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127898214","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}

{"title":"Regional features of migrants’ treatment (the case of the Tomsk and Vladimir Regions)","authors":"Alexandra V. Filkina, T. A. Bulatova","doi":"10.21684/2587-8484-2019-3-4-17-37","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21684/2587-8484-2019-3-4-17-37","url":null,"abstract":"This article presents a comparative analysis of attitudes toward ethnic migrants in two Russian regions: the Tomsk and Vladimir Regions. Its relevance is associated with a high migration influx of foreign citizens into various Russian regions. According to the UN data (2015), our country is the third in the world in terms of the migrants’ influx. Moreover, there is no reliable and comparable sociological information both about the attitude of the local population to them and about the factors that determine it. Against the backdrop of a growing trend of interethnic tension in relations with migrants, the results of such studies acquire important social and political significance. This article relies on the results of representative questionnaires of the population of the Tomsk (in 2014, 563 respondents) and Vladimir Regions (2015, 500) using the general methodology. In the process of research, groups with different levels of tolerance towards migrants were identified in the “host community”. Subsequently, different groups of tolerance of the population were compared in these two regions. The findings show that the attitude towards migrants in the regions can vary even under similar economic conditions and within the framework of a uniform political situation. Significant differences were found in the size of groups that showed varying degrees of tolerance towards migrants. While in the Tomsk Region, the half of the sample can be attributed to the group of the tolerant people, in the Vladimir Region, their percentage is equal to the xenophobes’. The structure of attitudes towards migrants presents particular interest: for the Tomsk Region, the difference between educational and labor migrants is more significant. The obtained results actualize the issue of factors differentiating attitudes towards migrants in different regions of one country. Based on the results obtained, the authors propose a hypothesis that the specificity of the local urban social and cultural context can occupy an important place among these factors. Therefore, in Tomsk (an educational center), there is an obviously higher level of tolerance towards migrants. The authors speak for additional studies using qualitative methods to test their hypothesis.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128348916","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}

V. Ivanov and Yu. V. Popkov “Spiritual and ecological civilizational perspective: the value potential of youth in the Siberian context”, which initiated this discussion. The aim of the article is to study the place of civilizational identity in the general coordinate system formed by multilevel identity, and in which way the value of civilizational identity as an independent sociocultural phenomenon changes under the influence of globalization processes. The novelty of the research is determined by the research attitude towards the comparative analysis of global and civilizational identities in modern conditions. The author’s view of the changes taking place with the idea of civilization under the influence of globalization, the logic of these processes, internal mechanisms and prospects for further development is proposed. It is shown that globalization initially serves as a trigger for the process of transformation of civilizational identity and sociocultural space in general and then continues to retain its influence as its significant factor. The result of cultural globalization is the formation of a global identity. As a result, global and civilizational identities find themselves in a state of competition, since in the modern system of values they represent two “neighboring” highest levels of identity, transnational in nature, and are largely determined by similar factors. The formation process features of civilizational identity in different conditions (Russia and Europe) are outlined. It is concluded that the general trend is its directed and conscious construction, accompanied by the politicization of this phenomenon. Meanwhile, the difference in the strategies for formation of civilizational identity in Russia and Europe is determined by the emerging relations between civilizational identity and the institution of the national state.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134250731","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}

The first place in the hierarchy of threats is the activity of radical Islamists promoting extremist goals, while the second place belongs to the activity of non-traditional religions. This article is devoted to the analysis of methodological tools and results of regional and All-Russian sociological surveys aimed at determining the quality of interfaith relations and the place of religious risks in the national security system. Research into the religious sphere requires a certain sensitivity, which only complicates the process of compiling empirical tools. This article analyzes the experience of sociological surveys in the Volga Region (Bashkortostan, Penze, Ulyanovsk, Mordovia, Astrakhan) and the North Caucasus, using the data from All-Russian surveys. The purpose of this article is to identify the most effective methodological strategies for measuring sectarian tension and determining the risk of religious violence. The analysis of methodological tools shows that the high anxiety of mass consciousness can be recorded using questions on a number of issues. They include the admissibility or inadmissibility of violence in interreligious relations; the need to grant special rights to a denomination (to formalize its dominant position); the benefits or harms of the transition from one religion to another; the attitude towards the demonstration of religious symbols in the public sphere (e. g. hijab). The analysis of empirical research strategies allowed recording the tendency to present non-traditional faiths for Russia as a serious threat to the religious security, as well as to unite under a single cap such diverse phenomena as Wahhabism, the movement of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Protestantism, and Krishnaism. On the contrary, Russian political scientists consider traditional religions the main allies of the state in the field of maintaining religious security. The author concludes that the choice of methods can influence individual and collective perceptions of religious security.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122404318","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}

During this process, the aim and values of education are also transforming: the idea of commitment and of integral personal development are substituted for the concept of service, profit and competitiveness. The novelty of this work is in the study of innovations in the system of higher education through analysis of university as an establishment with historically developed traditions. In this article, for the first time, the ratio of existing traditions and innovations that are being currently introduced is analyzed on the example of a specific university. The purpose of this paper is to examine the traditions of a single university involved in the process of innovative development and to identify how they compare to introduced innovations, as well as in what way the role of university traditions changes in this context. During the research, the authors’ typology of research approaches based on the ideas of M. Rokeach, C. Kluckhohn, and F. Strodtbeck, methodological works of S. H. Schwartz and R. Inglehart was used. The article presents the results of an interuniversity study of the value orientations of the university students and teaching staff, as well as of the transformations of its traditions in connection with the modernization of education in general and the introduction of innovations in particular. In this sense, the case of University of Tyumen is of interest — it is the university that entered the project 5-100 in 2015 and commenced the process of active modernization and the introduction of innovations in its educational process. The article presents the results of in-depth expert interviews with the management and teaching staff of the University of Tyumen (n = 60), as well as the analysis of mass survey data of the students (n = 743). The study revealed the following points: the university focuses on innovative development in its priorities; a demand for a new type of the university and corresponding personality is formed gradually. In the context of the development of the University of Tyumen, it is not only the traditions that change but rather their role. The university is not generally aimed at reproduction of traditions preferring innovative educational processes.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"1980 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130396014","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}

The key factors accompanying the process of maturation of representatives of Millennial and Z generations include prolongation of the educational process and of acquiring financial independence, expansion of youth boundaries, non-linearity and diversity of life paths, specific cyclicity of “personal” events occurring. The research demonstrates that the life in the context of global risk society and permanent social instability requires young people to develop specific skills, willingness to constantly change and good adaptive abilities. It is also highlighted that the 21st century maturation patterns are influenced by the socio-cultural, economic, political specificities and traditions of a certain country or region. For example, the Anglo-Saxon model of maturation involves a desire for early separation from parents; countries with a strong social support system (Northern Europe), by contrast, are characterized by rather late maturation; societies with weak state welfare systems or with strong family traditions (Southern Europe, Latin America, Afro-Asian countries) usually rely on family resources and support from relatives; the transition from youth to maturity in the developed countries of Asia has a distinctive glocal nature. The mode of growing up in some regions (usually involved in armed conflicts) is subject to the regulations of survival in extreme situations. Russia is characterized by Pan-European and local maturation trends, as the life trajectories of Russian youth are significantly influenced by regional differences. The author also makes an assumption regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on these trends.","PeriodicalId":286622,"journal":{"name":"Siberian Socium","volume":"130 14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125859654","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}
