The empirical material of this research is represented by texts of autobiographies of men from provincial Russia, the corpus of ‘naive’ male autobiographies comprises 36 interviews (28,335 word usages). For the comparative analysis 46 female autobiographies have been used (the total corpus contains 48,530 word usages) dwelling in the countryside and provincial towns as well. The other group of materials includes 20 ‘literary autobiographies’ of writers (the corpus of literary male autobiographies contains 27,241 word usages). It was found that the autobiographies of writers, as well as the autobiographies of ‘ordinary males’, are being constructed by the authors within the boundaries of the ‘male culture’ rules regardless of abilities and literary experiences.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"12 1","pages":"38 - 53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81613872","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}

Within this rhetorical tradition, the essay centered on the roles of metaphors in communication. The essay adapted the categories of Nye’s power typology to frame its rhetoric. Historically, Russian kruzhki storytelling circles were elite-centric where abstract and action ideas were generated and distributed. Today’s Russian kruzhki and their American storyshop equivalents are more mass-centric. The authors highlight three types of Russia–U.S. kruzhki-storyshops: sports diplomacy and hockey metaphor, comrade cowboys diplomacy and horse metaphor, and nongovernment organization diplomacy and innovation and entrepreneurship metaphor, which serve as models for education cultural diplomacy. To improve Russia–U.S. relations via communications, the authors propose discovering and sharing the rhetoric of common metaphors. The authors think that crafting the rhetoric of metaphors will advance communication theory and the soft-power practices among Russians and Americans, especially in the Era of Disruptive Innovation.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"9 1","pages":"54 - 69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73741398","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 majority of parents and teachers considered guiding pupils’ health learning as a joint responsibility of home and school. Finnish and Russian parents’ views differed in several areas; the largest differences concerned the areas of oral health and dental care and washing and hygiene. Teachers’ views were more consistent between regions than parents’ views; the largest difference was in the area of sexuality and reproduction. Within each region, teachers perceived more areas to be the school's responsibility than parents did.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"31 1","pages":"70 - 90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89613864","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 of 10 federal universities in Russia, SibFU was established in November 2006 by merging four leading universities in Krasnoyarsk. SibFU is well-positioned to support RJC. The university consists of 20 specialized schools and 3 affiliated institutions with more than 33,000 students, 830 post-graduates, and 6600 employees. It offers 370 academic programmes, 20 of which are in English and provide the opportunity to get an international master’s degree and Ph.D. There are 82 scientific laboratories in the university, one of which is headed by a Nobel Prize winner Osamu Shimomura. The eclectic offerings of SibFU makes it well-suited to support the broad scientific, artistic, and theoretical investigations that comprise communication study. Another strength is SibFU’s diversified student body. The university is proud to have a large number of students enrolled from different parts of Russia. In 2016, nearly 41,000 admission applications were submitted from 67 regions. Sixty-five per cent of SibFU students are non-residents of Krasnoyarsk, coming mainly from the Siberian and Far Eastern federal districts. Eight hundred and thirty-one foreign students also call SibFU home. Over the past 5 years, SibFU has been in the TOP-20 according to several Russian rating agencies. The university identified as the #8 supplier of graduates meeting employers’ demands for qualified workforce employees. In addition, SibFU was internationally recognized for its superior levels of excellence. In 2016, the university was honoured by its rating by the international Times Higher Education. Also, SibFU is ranked in the TOP-200 in the universities of the BRICS countries rating, and the British rating agency QS awarded the university with 4 stars. In 2015, SibFU joined Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ‘5-100’ project based on its renowned strength in the sciences and technology. SibFU’s focus on integrating a scientific balance between nature and industrialization has forged the university’s commitment toward enhancing Russia’s international competitiveness while improving life quality and increasing life expectancy. The unique advantage of SibFU are its strategic partnerships with the largest Russian industrial companies to implement several investment projects in Krasnoyarsk Krai. Currently, several scientific and technological centres are being constructed around the university. These scientific collaborations and centres complement SibFU’s commitment towards the international scientific study of communication. The linguistic education provided by the university’s School of Philology and Language Communication ranks 4th in Russia. The School offers a wide range of academic programmes focused on European and Asian languages and cultures. SibFU offers an Intercultural CommunicationMaster’s programme of double d","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"35 1","pages":"100 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77741744","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}

This confirms once again that modern marketers have received powerful tools for controlling the behavior of individuals, not only in terms of propaganda, building (painting?) a meaningful picture of the world, but also in styling the motivation (nudge) to commit the necessary actions. Thus, political marketing in the Big Data paradigm is a challenge for democracy, morality and law, and maybe civilization. Prospects for overcoming this tendency toward growing divergence, disunity and total manipulation could be linked to other information and communication technologies, such as blockchain, which create technological platforms of trust with the prospect of expanding such platforms to all new activities: finance, expertise, management, etc. However, we can assume that the combination of Big Data and blockchain, with their inevitable integration with the Internet of things (IoT), is fraught with a rigid fixation on certain values and norms, thus generating totalitarian tendencies. In relation to this subject, there is inevitably a temptation to implement the plot from another film – the ‘Truman Show’ – but from a data science point of view for every citizen and society, as a whole.","PeriodicalId":53456,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Communication","volume":"4 1","pages":"298 - 299"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90864411","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}
