In this sense, today we are experiencing a unique situation: in modern Russia, beer (a low-alcohol drink) is taking the lead in the alcoholic beverage market. Beer is again becoming, in fact, a people's drink. This circumstance makes interesting and relevant the question of studying beer consumption in the historical context. How has the consumption of alcohol in the past influenced its consumption today? Is there any cultural connection between the eras? Or is today's beer culture starting from scratch? We have tried to answer these questions by studying modern beer naming. \u0000In this article the socio-cultural origins of modern beer names are analysed on the example of draught beer shops in the city of Kirov. The names are analysed in the context of successive major Russian historical epochs. The study was conducted using a content analysis method of three hundred and seventy beer names collected by the authors in the first half of 2023 in twenty-two beer shops in the city. Three strategies used for naming beer were identified: pre-revolutionary (these names are closely related to the names of varieties from various Western European countries), Soviet (built on the negation of the pre-revolutionary strategy, based on the development of new, unique names) and post-Soviet (modern names that do not correlate with either the pre-revolutionary or Soviet strategy). The study revealed that the most popular strategies are pre-revolutionary and post-Soviet (38 per cent each of all names considered), while the least popular is the Soviet strategy (24 per cent of all names considered). In addition, the coefficient of uniqueness of the strategy used is introduced, which allows us to understand how diverse the use of a particular strategy in sales is. It is shown that pre-revolutionary and post-Soviet beer naming strategies are most often used in beer sales, while the Soviet strategy is the least popular, which indicates the special characteristics of the beer consumer community.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"408 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140780971","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":"Transformation of the education system in the context of spatial development of the region (on the example of the Republic of Crimea)","authors":"O. Zhavoronkova, Julia Korolenko","doi":"10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.10","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.10","url":null,"abstract":"The article considers the features of the development of the education system in the Republic of Crimea as the main factor of socio-spatial development of the region. The authors have analysed the dynamics of the main indicators of the education system at three levels: general education, secondary vocational and higher education. The considered main indicators are as follows: geographical accessibility of educational institutions for the population, their provision with information and technical means of educational process and human resources. The analysis of human resources was carried out in the context of those categories of personnel who directly implement and provide the educational process. The study revealed the presence in educational institutions of managers and teaching staff without higher education. The article compares the number of external part-time and full-time employees in the categories under study, compares the results with the number of students. It is demonstrated that in the conditions of the tendency of growth in the number of external collaborators and reduction of full-time employees in the system of higher education the number of students who voluntarily left education is growing. The article also considers the dynamics of growth of the wage fund for these categories of employees, and compares the average wage per person by type of activity (education) in the Southern Federal District in relation to other federal districts. It is revealed that the level of remuneration of education employees in the Southern Federal District in 2021 is at the level of 2016 in comparison with other districts. According to the indicators of the personnel structure by the ratio of full-time employees and external part-timers, trend lines have been built to identify the trends of changes in their number. For some categories of employees the forecast for two years was made to identify probabilistic quantitative changes in the staffing of the education system. It is substantiated that the solution of personnel issues will lead to the preservation and increase in the number of students, improve the quality of education and human development in the region. The paper presents conclusions on the results of the study. On the basis of the constructed trends and conclusions the authors formulate specific recommendations to eliminate the identified problems in the education system.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"36 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140772157","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}

Tikhomirov, Anna Kulikova","doi":"10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.8","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.8","url":null,"abstract":"The article presents the results of a sociological study to identify the peculiarities of the perception of work-life balance by modern civil servants of the metropolitan megalopolis. As the empirical basis the materials of questionnaires and interviewing carried out by the authors in 2022 in several ministries of the city of Moscow were used. Using modern methods of textual data analysis, the authors visualise with the help of a word cloud the answers of respondents to an open-ended question about their subjective understanding of work-life balance. Such terms as "time", "opportunity" and "family" prevail in the interpretation of the interviewed civil servants, that allows to find out what meaning civil servants put into the concept of work-life balance. Thus, being a subjective phenomenon, this concept is primarily associated with the proportional distribution of time for family and work. Based on the results of the questionnaire survey, the authors distinguish two groups of civil servants who do and do not experience a sense of work-life balance and analyse their socio-demographic characteristics, life priorities, attitude to work, assessments of time resources and level of satisfaction with various life spheres. Representing subjective assessments, the authors note that just over half of the civil service employees surveyed do not experience work-life balance. Statistical analysis showed that the selected groups do not have significant socio-demographic differences. It was also found that civil servants, who differently assess the presence of work-life balance, do not differ significantly in determining the leading life priorities, putting family and work in the foreground. However, statistically significant links were found between subjective indicators of work-life balance and peculiarities of differentiation of work and personal problems, assessment of sufficiency of time for everyday practices and satisfaction with private life. It was found that the state of imbalance is more characteristic of people who note the influence of work on personal affairs, experience a lack of time for everyday private life and are not satisfied with its main components. The interviewing focused on a group of external factors that relate to the conditions of employment, which is important to consider in matters of personnel policy and work organisation in the public service. The obtained materials allowed to consider the existing working regime from the point of view of civil servants, to discuss initiatives for its improvement, opportunities and limitations of remote work.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"426 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140780739","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}

Roslyakova, Sergey Tishkov","doi":"10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19181/vis.2024.15.1.4","url":null,"abstract":"The study is devoted to the adaptation and testing in Russian conditions of the internationally recognised toolkit for measuring the values of socio-cultural characteristics according to the Hofstede model at the individual level. The results of approbation on the basis of a sociological study of the Arctic territories of the Republic of Karelia (n=1042) conducted in 2023 were presented. The territorial specificity of the values of socio-cultural characteristics of individuals according to the Hofstede model was determined, as well as their expression in the context of social groups (in particular, gender). The greatest differences can be traced for the indicator "masculinity", and the minimum differences for the indicator "collectivism". The relevance of the model of cultural indicators was checked and the convergence of measurements was assessed. The techniques of factor analysis by principal component analysis (PCA), multidimensional scaling (ALSCAL), and hierarchical cluster analysis were applied. The quality of factor analysis was checked on the basis of Bartlett sphericity criterion values and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin statistics of the sampling adequacy measure. Also, to check the reliability of the tools used, the results of the authors and the developers of the methodology were compared using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α). The obtained values of the coefficient indicate high reliability of the used toolkit, as well as confirm the preservation of the scales' measuring ability after translation for five indicators out of six. For the sixth indicator, "long-term goal-setting", it is reasonable to adjust the translation of the questions based on the relatively lower Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α). Nomological validity analysis confirmed the relevance of the presented tool. This allows us to speak about the achievement of the research goal and successful adaptation and validation of the actual toolkit for calculating the values of sociocultural characteristics according to Hofstede model at the level of individuals in the conditions of Russia. The applied scales are characterised by high reliability and validity. The prospect of further research is to expand the geography of the toolkit application and to compile an ethnometric database of the regions of AZRF on the values of socio-cultural characteristics according to the Hofstede model measured at the level of individuals, to analyse the patterns of spatial differentiation of indicators, as well as to study the aspects of influence within the triad "space - socio-cultural specifics of individuals - reproduction of human capital”.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"49 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140786376","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 relevance of the research topic is due to the importance of youth for the development of Russian society, including at the regional level. The aim of the work is to identify the peculiarities of the dynamics of young people's value attitudes in the sphere of professional and labour employment, as well as the peculiarities of young people's adaptation to market processes. In this regard, the authors separately consider the models of youth adaptation to new market realities, as well as the dynamics of formation of socio-cultural types of youth groups. A special place is given to the study of the specificity of value priorities of young people, the forms and content of which to a certain extent differ from the values of previous generations. The presented research was carried out using the methods of system analysis of socio-economic processes in the region, analysis of data from sociological surveys of young Tuva residents using special computer programs (SPSS). Based on the comparative retrospective analysis of the materials of the studies conducted under the authors' supervision in 2010, 2015 and 2021, the conclusion is made about the specifics of the formation of values of young people in the Republic of Tuva, which should be taken into account when designing regional social development programmes. The authors found a gradual transformation of the models of social adaptation of the new generation to modern realities, the transition from passive forms to a more active type of integration into the economy, which is more in line with its requirements. The peculiarity of adaptation processes among young Tuvinian respondents is a higher proportion of those who are committed to doing their own business. Russian youth are still more passive: they mainly take the position of verbal intentions to find their niche in the labour sphere, postpone their active actions for the future, which determines the lower speed of adaptation of Russian youth to modern conditions compared to Tuvan youth.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"114 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140772115","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}

It is substantiated that under conditions of uncertainty society requires consolidation and unity on the basis of a unifying concept or model. The aim of the article is to substantiate the possibilities of regional branding as a part of regional identity policy in strengthening the all-Russian identity. The research methodology is based on an interdisciplinary approach, the main provisions of the theory of social constructivism and the concept of multilevel identity are taken as a basis. \u0000The hypothesis is that the strengthening of regional identity in Russian regions and regional branding based on it can strengthen Russian national identity rather than fragment it. The hypothesis was tested using quantitative and qualitative methods. \u0000The empirical basis of the research was the results of a mass online survey of residents of three republics of the North Caucasus - Adygea, Kabardino-Balkaria and Dagestan, conducted in October-November 2023 (n= 1421). Its results were supplemented with the data of the expert survey. \u0000The obtained data indicate the absence of formed brands in the studied regions, which is confirmed by the results of the representative survey (low level (less than 20%) of residents' awareness of neighbouring regions) and expert opinions. \u0000At the same time, there is a consistent movement towards the recognition of the potential of branding in the development of regions, that includes the search for key images-ideas constructed both from below (by the population of the republics) and from above (by regional authorities together with business, media and public organisations). Branding of regions and increasing their recognisability contributes to the strengthening of the Russian national identity. The interviewed experts agreed that regional branding works as a mechanism for maintaining the consolidation of Russian society and its potential should be built into the identity policy.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"49 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140789675","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 analysis is based on the results of an empirical study conducted with the author's participation in six small towns in Perm Krai, Ivanovo and Tambov regions. The research was conducted in two stages. The first stage consisted of 69 in-depth interviews with representatives of local and regional elites and experts conducted in 2012-2015. At the second stage in 2018 -2020, 64 interviews were conducted, including as well the same respondents who were interviewed at the first stage. In 2023, several additional interviews were conducted with experts in the city G of Perm Krai due to the dramatically changed situation. \u0000The conducted research allows us to say that the problem field of small towns has not changed so significantly over the years. The problems are still concentrated around the theme of deteriorating socio-economic situation, taxes and personnel deficit. At the same time, managerial problems of the authorities are growing due to the deficit of personnel in small towns, managerial weakness of some heads of small towns. Among the new problems are pandemic, insufficient number of leaders in the corps of municipal managers, and the consequences of SWO. The analysis of the motivational profile of the heads of municipal entities and their teams has shown that in recent years the level of motivation and management efficiency have increased among the heads of cities. The elites' and population's demand for power has significantly increased, which could not but affect the internal motivation of actors. The empirical study on the example of one single-industry town demonstrated that a small town despite all resource and other constraints can continue to develop if a partnership model of interaction between local authorities and strategic leaders of a large company is formed. However, it does not always guarantee that the achieved efficiency of interaction between government and business will remain unchanged if the federal government interferes in the system of relations between the two actors.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"22 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140764996","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}

Today, Web Mining and AI methods and technologies are often applied in research on social networks and youth participation in them. However, the question how these approaches can be effectively used to study online radicalisation remains open. The answer to this question should increase the explanatory and predictive power of computational models for detecting and predicting radicalisation in the online space. In much of the Russian research on online radicalisation, a common approach has been to reduce the task of identifying the interconnectedness of individual online communities or clusters of them to assessing the degree of similarity in terms of subscribers or linguistic markers. This approach is limited in predicting new connections between communities and justifying radicalisation pathways, but is relevant in modelling information diffusion. In this paper, the authors aim to demonstrate the possibilities and limitations of applying the tf-idf, doc2vec methods to assess the content similarity of online communities without signs of radicalisation and online communities with signs of radicalisation. This approach allowed the authors to identify communities with a significant tendency to unite (to establish direct links). The paper presents the results of the comparative study in the form of social graphs formed according to the principles of subscriber commonality, similarity of significant words, and contextual similarity based on the doc2vec model. The social graph based on doc2vec method performed better in terms of clustering of online communities as well as interpretability of the results. This is crucial for detecting and predicting radicalisation online, as it opens the prospect of exploring the nature of assortativity in the observed network.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"1217 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140774040","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":"Once Again about the Feasibility of Universal Basic Income","authors":"Aleksandr Zolotov","doi":"10.19181/vis.2023.14.4.4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.19181/vis.2023.14.4.4","url":null,"abstract":"The article examines the problem of the feasibility of a universal basic income (UBI) in modern society/world. Three main aspects of this problem are formulated: the feasibility of implementing UBI, taking into account the relationship between the positive and negative socio-economic effects of this measure; the degree of compliance of UBI with the institutional system of modern society; possibility of financing UBI in the amount of the subsistence minimum. The controversial impact of UBI on public welfare, economic growth and the lifestyle of members of society is revealed. Arguments are given in favour of the compatibility of UBI with the functioning of the labour market. A conclusion is drawn about the potential predominance of the positive effects of using UBI in the context of an established understanding of development as a person gaining freedom. There has been a tendency to provide socially significant benefits (education, medical care) to all members of society, regardless of their income level. Using the example of family capital analysis, the illegitimateness of linking social security only with the task of poverty reduction is substantiated. UBI is presented as a logical step in the implementation of the trend towards universal social support. The role of the minimum wage (SMW) as a state-guaranteed basic income for a worker is analysed. The need to pay UBI to employees along with the minimum wage has been questioned. The difference is shown between the current practice of using the minimum wage and the implementation of the minimum wage as a form of UBI (earnings in the amount of a share of the minimum wage for part-time employment, the possibility of wage arrears). Measures to overcome this difference are justified (salary at a level not lower than the minimum wage, regardless of the amount of time worked, payment of UBI from a special fund during the period of arrears in wages, with subsequent reimbursement of these expenses to the fund at the expense of the employer). It is proposed to include a state-guaranteed basic income as an element in all types of income from economic activity. Calculations are presented showing that the total costs of paying UBI in the amount of the subsistence minimum will amount to about a third of household expenditures on final consumption in GDP, that demonstrates the possibility of financing UBI. A conclusion is drawn about the fundamental feasibility of UBI in all aspects considered.","PeriodicalId":416622,"journal":{"name":"VESTNIK INSTITUTA SOTZIOLOGII","volume":"5 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139158133","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}
