It cites data from all-Russian surveys and World Values Survey Wave 6 2010–2014, as well as data from the content analysis of eight patriotic education documents from the United States, Singapore, China, and Russia. The uneven nature of Russians’ patriotic self-identity shows that external events play a large role in the formation of patriotism, while Russian society consolidates not through the cultivation of positive values, but on the basis of negative factors whose impact leads only to blind—and not to constructive—patriotism. This approach integrates citizens’ emotional relationship with their country and their state, civic, and national identities and emphasizes the importance of traditions and values by creating a construct of active and free social behavior without impinging on alternative values, traditions, and beliefs.","PeriodicalId":85546,"journal":{"name":"Sociological research","volume":"56 1","pages":"38 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10610154.2017.1338398","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45039981","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}

As a result, the study of the childless as a population group is of considerable interest to researchers. The aim of this work is to study female childlessness as a social phenomenon, and the causes and conditions of its dissemination in Russian society. Thanks to the works of social historians, medical doctors, and demographers, the essence of the phenomenon of childlessness in Russia has been described. Using the 2002 and 2010 censuses, we have traced the evolution of the percentage of the childless among women of different ages and generations. Analysis has shown that such women have always existed, but their number has changed, as have society’s attitudes toward them and the reasons for childlessness. In any generation, in different epochs failure to marry was the main reason, but the role of this factor has varied throughout demographic history. The problem of female childlessness in modem Russia has been tending to increase, particularly in urban areas. We also found a regional differentiation in the level of childlessness, which once again demonstrates the diversification of its causes and effects. In the second half of the twentieth century, the influence of demographic factors (war, famine, social and economic turmoil) on the level of childlessness was virtually eliminated. The development of reproductive medicine, gynecology, and effective infertility treatment increased the number of women who were able to give birth to children. At the present stage, the number of the voluntarily childless has increased, which may reflect both a temporary and final individual choice.","PeriodicalId":85546,"journal":{"name":"Sociological research","volume":"55 1","pages":"430 - 449"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10610154.2016.1337476","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59742435","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}

Using various methods to conceptualize the phenomenon of poverty, the authors are able to classify several types of poverty: preindustrial poverty in modern societies (India, South Africa), early industrial poverty of the lumpen urban poor (Brazil), industrial poverty (China, Russia), and late industrial poverty (Russia). They then draw a conclusion about the overriding heterogeneity of Russian poverty, which includes elements of all these models, but tends toward industrial poverty. They also indicate that the Russian inequality model does not dovetail with any of the inequality models described in this article. Finally, they note the particular relevance of investment, employment, migration, and tax policies to combating poverty “in a way appropriate to the Russian context.”","PeriodicalId":85546,"journal":{"name":"Sociological research","volume":"1 1","pages":"305 - 341"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10610154.2016.1294432","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59742226","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 uses binary choice and Heckman models to analyze factors related to choosing and switching sectors. The findings show that the flow between sectors is relatively small, but that job changes in the public sector usually mean a move to the private sector. Moreover, a significant difference in wages leads the most qualified public sector workers to take jobs in the private sector. The only way to attract workers to the public sector is through nonmaterial incentives, which means that more passive, risk-averse workers choose to work in the public sector.","PeriodicalId":85546,"journal":{"name":"Sociological research","volume":"55 1","pages":"358 - 381"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10610154.2016.1294435","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59742293","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 reserves for increasing the labor supply from those ages twenty-five to forty-nine are found to be almost exhausted for women and significantly limited for men. Reduction of economic inactivity of the population is possible mainly by drawing on younger and older people.
