Transformation of inclusion / exclusion structures in a globalizing society

The article is devoted to the identification and consideration of the main structures of inclusion / exclusion, as well as the transformation processes that are characteristic of modern society. By analogy with identity, the author identifies the cognitive, conative and affective structures of inclusion / exclusion. The variability of the manifestation of inclusion / exclusion can be different and does not always imply the presence of all three structures. Cognitive is considered as a knowledge level, that is, inclusion in a certain information space. The cognitive structure includes evaluative judgments, opinions about objects. The conative or behavioral structure includes both an intentional readiness for a certain behavior, as well as real actions and actions in relation to the locus of inclusion, as well as participation in its (rep) production. The third structure is the affective, that is, the emotional-evaluative level, the appeal to feelings and emotions, the subjective significance of the locus for the included subject, as well as the determination of positive and negative attitudes towards “we” and “they”. Appeals to these three structures are uneven, so the variability of the manifestation of inclusion can be different and does not always imply the presence of all three. An individual represents inclusion as a pattern of behavior, realizing only the conative aspect. Individuals are involved in a certain activity to the end, not realizing the meaning or background of this action. In a globalizing society, inclusion / exclusion structures are transformed toward an obsessive continuous stream, which, due to its ubiquity, “dissolves”, becomes invisible and inaccessible to reflection and understanding on the part of the individual. The identification of structures allowed us to assume the presence of corresponding elements in all inclusion / exclusion tools, regardless of who or what is the object of inclusion.
