dc.description.abstract

value:
Attitudes of women to gender roles, based on the dominant gender ideology in society,
which determines normative behaviors for men and women, are reflected in women’s involvement
in career and shaping career paths. The mechanism of the relationship of attitudes
with the subjective career success of women is little studied. The goal of the study
is exploring the mechanism that mediates the relationship of implicit and explicit attitudes
towards gender roles and subjective career success of women. The study involved employed
women at the age of 18 to 65 years (N = 91). Four mechanisms were distinguished: career
manageability, fear of backlash, work centrality and career planning, presumably mediating
the relationship of implicit and explicit attitudes of women towards gender roles with subjective
career success. The results showed that implicit and explicit attitudes towards gender
roles are not directly related to subjective career success and career satisfaction among
women. The mechanism of the relationship of explicit gender roles attitudes and subjective
career success turned out to be career planning. Only career planning was correlated with
explicit egalitarian attitudes towards gender roles and subjective career success and career
satisfaction. Moreover, women with egalitarian explicit attitudes rated career manageability
lower and career planning higher than women with traditional attitudes towards gender
roles. Subjective career success is correlated with the work centrality and career planning,
but not with career manageability or fear of backlash. Implicit attitudes towards gender roles
are not correlated with any of the 4 mechanisms. The model, in which career planning acts
as a mechanism for connecting explicit attitudes and subjective success, was tested using
SEM and showed compliance with the data. Thus, career planning is a mechanism to mediates the correlation of attitudes towards gender roles and subjective career success, career
satisfaction.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article examines the perception of conscience and life values of two generations of Georgians
and Russians, which allows one to look at the events taking place in the current reality,
not only from a theoretical point of view. In addition to the identified ethno-cultural and
intergenerational differences, the paper presents the results of an empirical identification of
the invariant of perception of conscience in two cultures. With the help of comparative and
correlation analysis of empirical data, it was shown that conscience is actualized mainly in
the area of normative or realizable significant life values. The interrelationships between the
indicators of a person’s life values and perception of conscience established in the study can
be interpreted as zones in which the work of conscience is carried out, also it can be supposed
what the features of a conscientious act will be. The spiritual and moral sphere is inseparable
from personal functioning, which is realized by each person in the process of life in order to
fulfill his predestination. The study used both domestic and Western methods, which complicated
the interpretation of the results and required additional analysis. We are talking about
the results of processing the MJT method by G. Lind. In addition to this technique, the study used the Questionnaire of the Properties and States of Conscience by V. Kh. Manerov and
“The Study of Value Orientations” by S. Schwartz.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Corruption is a multifaced and controversial phenomenon, attracting attention of various social
sciences. Conflictology considers corruption as a conflict destroying the social structure.
Corruption entails the clash of different interests including interests of largescale business,
government, and interests of specific officials. Society treats corporate and public governance
corruption differently, aggravating the conflict and the counteraction against corruption. The
court decision of 2021 sentencing the 23rd President of France Nicholas Sarkozy allows to
demonstrate the controversies in public opinion to the corruption in public governance and
corporations. Besides the general scientific methods, the authors addressed to the survey of
students studying politics. Corruption in public governance is explicitly considered to be a
menace to the society and criminal offence. Corruption in corporations is a menace from the
public opinion perspective, but, at the same time, it is considered a constrained and acceptable
form of work albeit unethical. Largescale corporations are issuing ethical codes with anticorruption
provisions, however in fact they are inefficient and ignored by their employees.
Admitting corruption to be a constrained phenomenon more harsh penalty for corrupted
top managers is at the same time desirable. The corruption scandals around ex-president of
France Sarkozy demonstrate the reputation losses of big multinationals while their top managers
escaped the responsibility and fell out of the social opinion spotlight. The research shows
the fission of interests and sophistication of social conflict around corruption.

dc.description.abstract

value:
In gender studies, there is a lack of instruments to assess the severity of gender inequality in
an organization. Gender inequality at the structural level of the organization manifests itself
as gender asymmetry in an organization and in certain status positions. It is indicated by
metaphors of “glass” phenomena: “glass ceiling”, “sticky floor”, “glass walls”, “glass escalator”,
“glass rock”, “glass box”. The article is devoted to the development and testing of the author’s
methodology for assessing structural gender barriers in an organization. The study was conducted
using an online survey in 2020, with a sample of 273 employees aged 18 to 62 years
(median 34 years) from various organizations. The survey included, in addition to the developed
questionnaire for assessing structural gender barriers, a methodology for assessing gender
inequality at the individual-behavioral and normative levels in an organization (“Doing
gender” and “Undoing gender” scales, “Scale for the severity of norms that support gender
inequality” (author’s development), “Perceptions of Politics Scale” (author’s modification of
the methodology of K. Kacmar and D. Carlson). The survey also included questions about the
characteristics of the organization to assess the criterion validity. Reliability analysis, correlation
analysis, and structural modeling were used. The results of the study showed good reliability
of the scales, the results of SEM analysis show that the obtained data do not correspond
to the six-factor model. An exploratory factor analysis was carried out, the resulting onefactor
solution explains 54 % of the variance. A positive correlation was found between the
severity of structural gender barriers and the severity of norms that support gender inequality,
with the presence of unfair policies in the organization and with the use of the “Undoing gender”
individual behavioral strategy. A negative correlation was obtained with the number of
women in high leadership positions in the organization. The obtained results testify in favor
of the reliability, constructive and criterion validity of the new instrument. It is planned to
further test the properties of the questionnaire on a larger sample.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article is devoted to the issue of the principles of moral restraint of warfare according
to the division of war participants into legitimate and illegitimate targets of military attacks,
which is actively discussed in the ethics of war. The authors analyze two competing ways of
differentiating this view, corresponding to two versions of the most popular contemporary
ethics of war, the Just War Theory (JWT). One approach assumes symmetric rights for both
combatants and non-combatants on both sides of the war, while the other approach allocates
rights according to the moral significance of the war in which the actors are involved
as well as their contribution to it. The authors show that in both cases an important principle
of justice is violated. But the reason for this, they suggest, is that in both cases differentiation
is proposed according to a certain distribution of rights. In such a case, the only moral
justification for creating a lethal threat to the subject in war is that the subject does not have
the right not to be so threatened independent of any of his qualities. However, the authors
argue that the proposed justifications for the loss of such a right in war are not sufficient.
And from this it must follow that both principles of differentiation are unjust. Nevertheless,
they can be fair, according to the authors, if we refuse to consider the presence or absence
of the relevant right as the only moral justification for creating a lethal or comparable threat
to someone in war.

value:
Several fundamental philosophical questions — about the essence of man, his difference from
animals, and the specifics of the perception and transfer of knowledge (information) — are
discussed in the context of the semiotic-linguistic concept by famous Russian philosopher
and culturologist M. K. Petrov. The author focuses on the concept of “sociocode” introduced
by Petrov, which implies a relevant typology of culture today. The complexity of the task is
that the work by the thinker is multifaceted, and in its different periods, we meet updated and
conceptually enriched versions of this concept. In the article, in detail and consistently, based
on the research of M. K. Petrov by domestic authors, his works, one way or another related
to the topic of the sociocode, are considered. In this case, a special role is acquired by the
themes of creativity, infancy, variations in the transmission of information through translation
and transmutation, as well as human capabilities and the key role of organization and
European sociality in the process of becoming typologically human, in contrast to the animal.
The author comes to the conclusion that the concept of “sociocode”, as opposed to “biocode”
(especially in its modern cybernetic interpretation of the latter), is a very effective theoretical
tool for understanding the relevant issues generated by the situation in contemporary culture and society as a whole. It allows clarifying the origins of the “inconsistencies” that arise when
cultural realities are transferred to a different cultural soill.

The paper analyzes the role of values and involvement of young people in various forms of social
activity in the preference of online or online environment. The relevance of such a research design
is related to the need to determine the determinants of the preference for the environment
of social activity in a situation of total digitalization of society. The purpose of the study is to
analyze the role of values and realized forms of social activity of young people in the preference
of the online/offline environment. The study involved 442 people, average age M = 21.82;
SD = 6.23 (men — 33.5 %, women — 64.5 %). We have suggested that the preference for an online
or offline environment may be due to involvement in various forms of activity and values, as
well as their joint effect. The design of the study assumed the use of the regression method and
the method of structural modeling. The following techniques were used. To identify the degree
of involvement in various forms of activity, a modified questionnaire was used, built according
to the type of direct scaling (Shamionov et al.), the analysis of values was carried out using the
Schwartz’s technique “Portrait value questionnaire”, the degree of trust was revealed using the
technique “Scale of social trust” by I. Yu. Leonova and I. N. Leonova. The determining role of
the Internet-network and Internet search, leisure and subcultural (positive) and religious and
sports and wellness (negative) has been established activity in preference to the online environment;
sports and recreation, family, and household, cultural and mass, Internet search (positive)
and protest (negative) activity in the offline environment preferences. The values of stimulation, power-dominance (positive) and tradition (negative) determine the preference for the online
environment, and independence-actions, stimulation, tradition (positive) and interpersonal
conformity (negative) — the preference for the offline environment. The joint effect of values
and involvement in different forms of activity in the preference of the online/offline environment
is revealed. The preference of the online environment in the implementation of social activity
is associated with social distrust. The research results can be used to develop programs to
balance the preferences of the activity environment.

In modern society all spheres of our work and life are permeated with communications, which
influence, determine and construct our indicators of success, satisfaction. The process of communication
can be transformed in different directions, from the formation of long-term,
trusting relationships, to conflict confrontation, resistance. In this regard, it is important to
expand the knowledge of effective tools for identifying, regulating and forming constructive
relationships between teams, groups, neutralizing the negative consequences of incipient or
existing conflict. In this article, we present the problem of studying the different communication
styles between members of work groups, which often leads to an increase in intergroup
conflicts. This is detrimental to interpersonal relationships and work productivity. The subject
of the study is the study of team interaction styles that are predictors of tensions leading to
inter-group conflict. The task for developing this instrument is based on the assumption that
different communication styles between group members lead to group dynamic tensions that
may be stimulating and helpful for the team development, but also for generating conflict.
The main research question is: “How can team developers and conflict counselors identify
different communication styles in work groups and treat conflicts at a very early stage?” The
purpose of this paper is to develop a tool for examining communication styles in work groups.
The construction of the instrument and quality control is described, from theoretical justification
to factor-analytic reduction of 12 items into 4 scales and quality control of the scales.
The result is an easy-to-use tool with satisfactory quality that can be applied to groups with
many members. It allows group members to carefully evaluate different communication styles
and identify relevant differences. Based on it, group members can directly discuss the differences
between communication styles and, if a tense situation or conflict arises, deal with them
constructively. As a result, this will indicate better group work, trainings, examinations and
further optimization of interaction tools.

The article presents a comprehensive analysis of the integration politics of Germany and identifies
the features of its implementation, considers the history of migration processes in Germany,
as well as the current migration situation. The migration politics of Germany and the
measures taken by the German authorities to implement integration programs for immigrants
are analyzed. The problems of integration of immigrants in modern conditions are determined.
The sociocultural integration of immigrants is described taking into account their
cultural and ethnic characteristics. An analysis is made of the problems and difficulties that
arise during the adaptation of immigrants in German society. To achieve the goal, a number of
methods were used, such as: the historical method, which made it possible to trace the stages
of development of the German integration politics and to identify the factors that influenced
the formation of the integration politics of modern immigrants; the method of statistical analysis
that made it possible to determine the extent of immigration; method of system analysis,
to obtain a holistic view of the current migration situation in Germany. Undoubtedly, the topic
of migration, integration and adaptation of immigrants remains very relevant, especially for
a united Europe. In Germany, a large number of the state reforms have been carried out to
strengthen the effectiveness of the regulation of immigration flows and the implementation
of integration politics. It seems, the experience of implementing the migration politics, the
difficulties that had to be overcome along the way, and the results that Germany managed to
achieve, which, thanks to the implementation of the politics of hospitality and open doors,
became one of the countries with an extremely large number of immigrants, can be useful and
interesting for other countries.

Continuing the cycle of publications on the socio-political aspects of digitalization, the authors
note that digital transformation, aimed primarily at social and anthropological changes,
at expanding opportunities in managing society and the individual, has exacerbated the extremely
fundamental issue of managing the Internet space and the problem of developing
political and administrative modes. Based on the model of power organization proposed by
M. Mann, the authors focus on the ability of the state authorities of the USA, EU, China, and
Russia to combine collective and distributive, extensive and intensive, authoritative and diffuse
power. State control in the conditions of total hybrid war and deepening uncertainty in
the world, as it seems to many researchers, can be supported by the active implementation of
digital transformation tools by modern states as a single “language” of coordination. Incomplete
institutional viability forces governments to seek support in supranational and international
structures. Financial and economic limitations, the lack of critical technical, technological
and managerial competencies bind the possibility of implementing an independent
policy of the country’s digital transformation, forcing it to maneuver between those who have
the most advanced competencies in these areas. The non-obviousness and weak articulation
of national values, ethical norms, the assimilation of alien ideals by the mass consciousness
deprive the motivation of those employed in the digital sphere, who are looking for applications
for their talents in other states. The authors conclude that involvement in publicity in the
context of the rapid development of digitalization should be based on the principle of openness
of the unconditional public good offered by the authorities, the public goal, which implies
transparency, accountability, and controllability of the authorities. Responsibility of both the
authorities and society for the present and future, which generate trust, are the foundations of
solidarity in the face of external and internal challenges, providing both formal and informal
types of coordination.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Investigating the lack of trust in the contemporary society, researchers tend to use various definitions
of trust in their social and cultural studies. Hence difficult is to compare the results of
such surveys and to understand the essence of the studied phenomenon clearly. In this regard,
the search for the fundamental sense of trust seems to be an urgent task. However, philosophical
literature allows to conclude that the category was used as something obvious throughout
the history of thought. Philosophers appeared to focus on analyzing phenomena either opposite (lie and deceit), or related but not identical (faith, fidelity, certainty, etc.). Thus, this study
is reasonable at the ontological level, using hermeneutic and existential analysis, as a result of
which, on one hand, it is possible to show the relation between trust and etymologically related
truth, and, on the other hand, to understand its nature and to formulate a definition that
reflects it’s basic sense. Trust is designated as a “switch” into the mode of openness to the light
of truth, which does not change either words or state of affairs, but allows to check our own
constructs for falsity and unproductiveness. Therefore, trust is offered to be studied not as a
characteristic of the relationship to others: the basic background of any relationship is found
to be the opening of human being to the “level” of truth as the full scale of reality. In this light,
the article demonstrates the existential aspects of trust giving examples of life situations and
investigates fears that lead to mistrust. Some recommendations are also formulated for overcoming
these fears and for building the most reliable, non-conflict, trustworthy relationships.

value:
The article is focused on analysis of ideas of human creative activities in its connections with
the spiritual life of society and state board system, which were among the fundamental problems
of the Ancient Chinese thought, begging with its originative stage (mid 1st cent. BCE).
The problem received a particular development in Confucian thought, and initially was applied
to musical types of art (“music-Yue”), endowed with special metaphysical properties.
Going from the analysis of original theoretical works the fact of formation of the holistic
concept of “mud music” (yin yue) is argued. As “mud” is offered with a certain proportion of
conditionality to translate the character yin, originally designated the river flow released from
the coast and mixed with mud and, later, turned into a categorical term, which transmitted
the totality of human Vices and related actions: immorality (including sexual behavior), debauchery,
etc., and which is usually rendered in English as “excessive, licentious, obscene”. It is
stated, that the spread of “mud music”, born by ethnical (barbarian) musical folklore, within
the native Chinese social and cultural compound was considered by the Chinese thinkers to
be the embodiment of its spiritual degradation, starting with the ruling elite. The growing
popularity of “mud music” aggravated the further fall of the public moral foundations, inevitably
leading to the decease of the state. At the end of this millennium, the ideas of “mud music”
were transferred to poetic creativity. As a result, it is assumed that the Chinese philosophy and
aesthetic thought were originally inherent in the notions of creative activity, expressing the
most Vile human qualities and aspirations, and which was endowed with the ability to render
debasing impact on the individual, human society and the world order.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The article specifies the characteristics of Christian Anarchism as applied to the religious
teaching of Lev Tolstoy. An attempt is made to overcome the political stereotype of his perception as an anarchist, but to consider it’s in the context of Political Theology. The article
calls into question the legitimacy of considering his religious teachings in the unambiguous
political discourse of Anarchism. If the concept of Christian Anarchism is a special kind of
theoretical and ideological oxymoron of “religious politics”, then Tolstoy’s teaching is considered
as a manifestation of his subjectivism, aimed at simultaneously overcoming the personal,
animal element in man and reaching an impersonal universal spiritual principle, without any
external restrictions. Freedom, as the most important category of his worldview, is presented
rather in the form of religious monarchism — submission to the Divine will and life according
to Christ, and not in the form of radical Anarchism. Political Theology is considered as a
conscious non-participation of individual in politics — that is, refusal to stay in state structures
such as courts, army, police, etc., — is the religious-subjective, peaceful destruction of
the system, according to Tolstoy. On this path, he went much further than his Enlightenment
teachers with their theories of social contracts, creating a model of not struggle, not reconciliation,
not an agreement, but retirement from the state in the form of non-participation in its
violence and atrocities. But all this is worth doing — not rebelling anarchically, not for the
sake of oneself or social justice, but completely obeying the Divine will, which is a religious
modification of the Kantian ethical imperative in Tolstoy’s teachings. Chertkov has named this
teaching as model of theocratic monarchism.

The most important event in the life of the outstanding Christian theologian J. H. Newman
(1801–1890) was his transition from Anglicanism to Catholicism, which took place in 1845.
That event made a huge impression on contemporaries. Interest in it has remained even further.
This article attempts to analyze the historiography of the Newman’s conversion process,
highlight the most important stages, and consider research concepts. The first stage in the
development of the historiography of Newman’s conversion took 1845 to 1864. The writings
of that time were distinguished with emotionality and were completely based on confessional
preferences. Many Anglicans who shared traditional anti-Catholic beliefs perceived Newman’s
departure as treason. The second stage covered the period from 1865 to the mid 20th century.
The appearance of such sources as Newman’s autobiography “Apologia Pro Vita Sua” (1864),
the publication of his selected letters made it possible to look at the problem more broadly.
The confessional approach continued to dominate. Highly ecclesiastical authors (W. Palmer,
R. Church, S. Ollar), regretting Newman’s departure from the Church of England, assigned a
decisive role to unfavorable circumstances, while radical Protestants saw in Newman a figure
initially aspiring to Rome (W. Walsh). The third stage, started in the middle of the last
century, was marked with a gradual departure from Confessionalism and the appearance of
a number of works specifically devoted to the process of Newman’s conversion (R. Imberg,
J. Hammond, W. Conn). That question is also considered in detail by Newman’s biographers
(F. Turner, I. Ker, S. Gilley). Currently, a research consensus has been reached in understanding
Newman’s movement to Rome as a long-term process determined by both internal and
external factors. But there is no consensus in understanding what combination of those factors
turned out to be decisive.

value:
New Confucianism is a philosophical movement which seeks to combine Confucian tradition
with Western philosophical thoughts. The idea appeared to some extent due to ideological
motives. For instance, New Confucian Mou Zongsan formulated the concept of moral metaphysics,
which was supposed to compete with Kantian transcendentalism. Moral metaphysics
is further developed by Mou Zongsan’s follower Tu Weiming, who belongs to Boston school
of New Confucianism. His moral metaphysics is essentially different from that of Mou Zongsan.
It is based on the notion of “self-enlightenment” (cheng). It presents an idea that in some
cases interpretation can serve as a research method and be more precise than analysis. The
focus of investigation is not the way how something first emerged and developed, but how
it was examined and interpreted afterwards. In other words, the key to understanding is the
“second birth” of things which happens during the interpretation. But to interpret correctly,
we should possess the full knowledge of “ourselves”. However, “oneself ” also turns out to be
not a separate body subject to analysis, but an aggregation of interpretations offered by others.
The drawn conclusion is that everything exists only when it has an opportunity to interpret
oneself during interaction. And in this sense “self-enlightenment”, according to Tu Weiming,
is a “certain form of metaphysics”. This article, however, suggests narrowing this conclusion to
cultural existence. Unlike Mou Zongsan, Tu Weiming does not intend to prove that the Chinese
philosophical thinking is better than the Western one. We can view his moral metaphysics
as a certain type of philosophy of culture. It does not offer a precise analytical approach,
but it does present a certain pattern of thought, which deals with embracing the form of one’s
cultural existence.

value:
The modern philosophy of science pays special attention to the processes of social regulation
of the researcher’s activity. In fact, today, the epistemologist is approaching the boundaries of
the sociology of science. Rather often, his reasoning turns out to be consonant with the concepts
of specialists in the field of social management. But when the discussion begins on how
to build a particular “program”, sociologists, as a rule, will not include in their research the
historical experience of knowledge. Nevertheless, both epistemologists and sociologists agree
that meaningfulness forms the basis of the productivity of human activity (in any sphere). But
how to achieve it? Under what social conditions does a person have the intent to think? The article
actualizes the ideas of social programming aimed at creating such conditions. The author
refers to the intellectual heritage of Russian philosophers and humanities scholars of the early
20th century, L. I. Petrazhitsky and Ya.E. Golosovker, to show the methodological effectiveness
of their reasoning about “motivation” and “interest”, as well as the fundamental ideological
consonance of their philosophical research programs. Petrazhitsky speaks of motivation from
the philosophical and legal fields, while Golosovker proceeds from the logic of the imaginary.
But both of them understand the importance of story (narrative) for the emergence and cultivation
of motivation and interest in knowledge.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The approach to history in general and the history of Russia in particular, which points to the
presence of the necessary historical stages, is primarily associated with various trends in Marxism.
In the case of the last centuries of Russian history, the most important point is the question
of the nature of the 1917 Revolution. More generally, it is a question of the extent to which
Marxist theory is able to substantiate the possibility of a “jump” through historical steps. We
have chosen two Marxists from different periods as an example the attitude to the topic. The
first example is G. V. Plekhanov, an outstanding Russian theorist and polemist. His reaction to
the revolutionary events was twofold. The February Revolution of 1917 fully met his aspirations
both in the medium term (the overthrow of “tsarism” and the continuation of the struggle
against Germany) and in the long term (creation in Russia of prerequisites for economic development,
and, therefore, a socialist revolution). On the contrary, the October Revolution was
regarded by him as a tragic mistake. Another position on the October Revolution was expressed
by a modern proponent of the formational approach, the Japanese philosopher Kajio Karatani.
He significantly changed the understanding of how the social development of mankind takes
place. The most important reason for historical change is the relationship of the three modes of
economic exchange, which dictate those types of state system that are relevant in different historical
eras. Karatani believes that the Russian Revolution was the reaction of an imperial-type
state to pressure from national states. The idea of class reorganization, on which the teachings
of the Bolsheviks were based, allowed the imperial, supranational structure of Russia to survive.
After the Civil War it received the supranational name of the Soviet Union.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The paper touches upon the problem of differentiating between virtual reality and original
reality. The article makes a contribution to the modern ontology, as it discusses the problem
of the status of virtual reality, which is formed by modern technical and mathematical means
using cognitive technologies. The work is based on the concepts of E. Husserl and H. Putnam,
as well as theories of psychophysiology and cognitive sciences. Arguments are provided for
the following opposing statements: that it is possible to differentiate between them and that
it is not. To specify the distinctive features of virtual reality, the latter is described as a system
of perceived existing things and in comparison to other forms of such systems: subjective and
objective, individual and social, natural and cultural, material and ideal, original and fictional,
abstract and transcendental, evident and illusionary, true and false, erroneous and imitative,
deceitful and mistaken, performative and simulating, conditional and unconditional ones.
This part of the article qualifies virtual reality as illusion created via imitation. It is further
revealed that the key distinctive feature of original reality, which is defined in the modern
phenomenology as the maximal level of evidence, is applicable to virtual reality as well. The
major argument in favor of the provable difference between virtual and original reality, which
the contemporary analytic philosophy offers, can be confuted by means of a thought experiment
based on the doubling of virtual reality. The final part of the article discusses psychological
(experiment-based cognitive) arguments in favor of differentiating between virtual and
original reality successfully: effect of presence and immersion. Both effects are typical of the
reality types under comparison, as well as of experiencing these realities. The paper concludes
that neither philosophy nor cognitive sciences can offer a compelling argument to differentiate
between original reality and virtual reality.

The article discusses the history and style, the levels of the addition of the cult of the statue of
the Christ of Sorrows (also known as the Man of Sorrows) from the Holy Trinity Church in
the town of Ros’ in Belarus (Grodno Region). This church is a well-known sanctuary of Christ
of Sorrows, a place of worship for believers from all over Belarus and other countries. Based
on the analysis of archival documents, the issue of dating the sculpture within the boundaries
of 1611–1618 has been resolved and its Neo-Gothic style, which developed in the symbiosis
of the late Renaissance and early Baroque, with the Neo-Gothic accent characteristic for the
early 17th century, which was considered the “new style” in Northern Europe at that time, has
been determined. The sculpture was a reflection of the concept of Andachtsbild — a specific
genre of art, the purpose of which is to excite the pious thoughts and intentions of the believer.
Today, a sufficient number of sculptures of the Christ of Sorrows are known in museums and
the existing churches of Belarus. There are even more indications of their presence in archival
documents, both in Catholic and Orthodox shrines. This material is intended to show the
meanings that affirm the obligatory nature of the images of the Christ of Sorrows in Eastern
European art and the inevitability of its appearance (acceptance) at certain points in a
large area from Western Europe to Eastern Europe in historical time. Sculpture in Ros’ is that
unique example of a transitional time, when the art of Eastern Europe turned to the creation
of early Baroque forms, synthesizing the forms of Gothic and Renaissance (Mannerism) in a
certain conceptual direction of internal meditative practice, personal prayer.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Based on the concept of boundary objects and gift exchange, the article proposes a classification
of trading zones. Boundary objects are material or abstract objects that are used by
various social groups. Following from their joint use, it is possible to build a common field
of understanding. The exchange of gifts, such as knowledge, skills, various competencies, and
material and technical resources, starts the process of forming trading zones, i. e. spaces of
coordination of activities and beliefs of various social groups. Based on the analysis of the
concepts of boundary objects and the exchange of gifts, three types of trading zones can be
distinguished. In the first type, the exchange takes place within the scientific community, boundary objects function as objects of science, and participants in the trading zone have a
similar institutional status. In the second, the exchange of gifts takes place between scientists
and non-scientists who aspire to become scientists. Scientists have institutional advantages
here, since they can bring their scientific knowledge as a gift, while non-scientists are only able
to accept this gift. In response, they can share solely the cultural elements of scientific knowledge.
However, partly these elements are already built in the knowledge of scientists. The third
type again implies the interaction of scientists and non-scientists, but here both have a similar
institutional status. The main task of trading zones of this type is the formation of associations
and alliances between social actors of various types to meet joint interests. In this case, boundary
objects are used on equal terms both as scientific and sociocultural entities.

value:
This article examines Russian nurses’ reflections about their individual moral experience of
the armed conflicts in Afghanistan (1979–1989) and in Chechnya (1994–1996; 1999–2009).
The study relies on published documents and interviews featured in various online sources.
The study aims to shed light on the main value orientations that influence present-day evaluations
of these events and to show how the values systems of those participating in war had
become transformed under the influence of wartime experiences. The concept of charity plays
a crucial role in the nurses’ reflection as it enables them to emphasise their special mission in
war: not only to provide people with health care but also with moral support. This concept
also underpins the practises of justification of moral choice. The article demonstrates that the
discrepancy between established commemorative practises and the personal inability to make
sense of death in war makes any justification of casualties impossible on the level of individual
reflection relative to the events of the WWII. The circumstances of war’s ‘trauma epidemics’
remain significant within these women’s personal moral experience. In addition to the paralysis
or passivity in the face of death that they experienced, in their civilian lives, they become
acutely aware of the impossibility of finding any meaning in the death toll that is war’s inevitable
result. The nurses’ memoirs lay a special emphasis on their attitudes toward the enemy.
On one hand, they remember the feelings they experienced toward the enemies in Chechnya
or Afghanistan; on the other hand, from a more recent perspective, it becomes clear that these
armed conflicts require new interpretations and evaluations.

The article explores the dictum and modus content of the virtual dialogue, formed by news
published on the Internet and comments by the discussion participants. The problematics of
the study is determined by the contradiction between the uniqueness of the content plane
for the news publication as the embodiment of the author’s intention and the dictum-modus
pluralism expressed in the comments of the participants in the Internet discussion. The study
involves 155 comments of internet discussion to the news “What will the Russian soldiers die
in Kazakhstan for?” posted on the maxpark portal. The Internet discussion of political news
establishes the role of the categories of the expected and the conflict of interpretations that
influence the dictum-modus content of the dialogue. While researching a virtual dialogue,
we revealed two types of text space organization: syntagmatic and paradigmatic, which set up
the undulating and radial principles of virtual dialogue development. The syntagmatic structure
of the dialogue is manifested when the latter develops from a specific topic stated in the
publication to related ones, then to global ones, which determines its multidimensional and
polymodal development. The paradigmatic dynamics of the virtual dialogue is determined by the multi-vector nature of the topics discussed. The analysis of comments discovered two
models of their interaction: linear-chain and parallel. The linear-chain model determines the
development of a dialogue in accordance with centrifugal tendencies, expanding its dictummodus
space. The parallel model ensures the development of a dialogue in accordance with
centripetal tendencies; it is implemented according to the principle of a common structural
model and the same mode, providing the stabilization and dictum-modus integrity of the
virtual dialogue. The theory of Internet dialogue developed in the article, the explanatory potential
of the categories of the expected and the conflict of interpretations can be used in the
analysis and forecasts of the mental state of the society.

Dialogue as a research object is reflected in the works of not only Russian researchers, but also
western researchers. Dialogue as a basic form is widely used in the media space, which determines
the need for its study. The aim of our study is to identify the models of dynamics management
in media dialogue as an individual manifestation of the moderator. The article comprehensively
uses analysis and synthesis, communicative and functional analysis, comparative
analysis, method of structuring and model analysis. The 560-minute 54 seconds episodes of
the video blog “vDud’”* were used as empirical material. The media dialogue as a semi-institutional
communication under the new communicative conditions acquires new features. Its
structuring largely depends on the speech behavior of the moderator, who occupies the leading
place in this type of communication. On the basis of the analysis of the empirical material
three basic models of the moderator’s management of the themes are revealed: the model
“from general to the parts” which is effective for the disclosure of event information, the model
“preliminary preparation + main topic putting forward” shows the information about the
guests’ world outlook, life philosophy and values, and the model “direct input” which has a
great communicative potential. In addition, the identified models acquire individual features in the process of their application by the video-blogger Y. Dud’*. For the disclosure of event
information, the first model of Y. Dud’* in a harmonious situation was used. To obtain true information
about the worldview, life understanding and values of the invited guests the second
model is constantly applied in a conflict communicative environment. The third model by the
situation can be both cooperative-harmonious and non-cooperative-conflict nature.

The article explores the relation between clickability, measured in click-through rate (CTR)
with the system of meanings the headline comprises. The authors apply graphic-semantic
approach when analyzing headlines with reference to their variable clickability. The article
describes a case reconstructing the system of meanings, represented by the news headlines
in Russian cyberspace, taking into consideration the CTR as a popularity factor among the
readers. The material of the study is 4900 headlines of Russian news media for May 2019, provided
by the news aggregator SMI2. The authors consider clickbait headline as a standalone
text, communicating information, related to the material they headline only indirectly. Based
on these basic constituent features of the clickbait titles the researches revealed frequency distribution
of semantic fields, representing the most popular meanings, communicated in the
headlines to the news content in Russian mass media. Besides, having analyzed CTR values
growth/decrease, the authors defined the most and the least popular semantic fields, indicating
the most promising vectors for further development of the media space. The system
of meanings transmitting concepts formed by media agents (publishing houses, journalists)
turned out to be highly clichéd and based on manipulative rhetorical devices (fields “Russia”,
“Headlines promising to give the answer in the article below, Speech activity”, “New and unexpected”).
Performers (actants) and actions here assume a secondary position. Actual interests
of the audience — news content readers — focus on such concepts as character, event and
chronotope (fields “Celebrities”, “Putin, Incidents”, “News”, “Death”, “Donbas”, “Kazakhstan”,
“Crimea”, etc.). CTR analysis also demonstrates the growth of the users’ self-awareness as active
participants of the media environment, due to their interest to journalism and PR, since
they no longer passive receptors, but more often experts able to evaluate events and interpret
facts.

dc.description.abstract

value:
The issue of gender influencing the language has long been discussed in linguistics. But a great
number of researches are focused on making a list of speech means, the use of which must
reflect the specifics of female and male communicative types. From our viewpoint it is more
fruitful to make a complex study of speech behavior in a single society united by some signs,
outlining typical communicative scenarios. In this relation it is methodically correct to outline
the etiquette line and to consider its peculiarities to determine the specifics of female speech
behavior in the web. As an empiric material we used female weblogs as a unique deflection of
the traditional genre of personal diary. The weblog is different from its offline version by the
initial orientation on the wide (occasional, it is better to say) audience. Gradually the author
forms a range of regular readers — subscribers who leave comments under each publication
(or post) in the log. Inside each log along with typical for all female weblogs etiquette rules
there exist own ones, due to the peculiarities of speech and non-speech self-presentation of
the weblog author. As the study shows, it is typical for female speech behavior to strictly follow
the selected rituals, to find violations of etiquette and to struggle with such violations, to
long to psychological comfort as a main communicative value, to follow topical unity inside a
single dialogue cycle, emotional dynamic which leads to the appearance of specific aggressive
forms in speech — catfights, discussion of private life, entering the private sphere.

The article is devoted to the identification and pragmastilistic characterization of the means of
evaluating the interpretation of works of modern fiction by the authors of reviews and articles
presented in the media content of the electronic literary magazine “Literratura” under the
heading “Criticism” over the past three years. The purpose of the study is to analyze the evaluative
judgments of critics based on a pragmaesthetic approach to discourse, i. e. taking into account
the pragmatic attitude of the addressee of speech. Under the influence of the chosen role
of the subject of critical discourse (“analyst” or “reader”), it can be dominated either by style
standards objectified in line with the canonical genre of the review, or by subjective-evaluative
ways of conceptualizing the reviewed work. It is established that modern professional media
criticism is distinguished by intellectualized forms of evaluation, which manifest themselves
in intertextuality, sensual metaphors and periphrases. In this case, the transfer of the critic’s
attitude to the reviewed work is mainly implicit. The fact of the influence of “new Russian

creating a “second reality” and has pragmaesthetic effect, is revealed. The important feature of
critical discourse, which brings it closer to blogistics in the case of choosing the position of the
“reader”, is the transfer of the reader’s reflection of the subject of evaluation, acting in egocentric
plane and not hiding subjectivism. At the level of verbal representation of the assessment,
we can talk about the interaction of scientific, literary, artistic and colloquial discourses, about
decrease in the stylistic register during irony, as well as due to professional jargonisms and colloquial
forms that increase the degree of emotionality of critical media discourse.

The article discusses readers’ comments to online news articles in terms of their orientation
and specifics. On the one hand, readers’ comments could be directed at the source article,
its content or form, and the personality of the politicians mentioned in the text. Another
vector of communication arises between readers who react to previous readers’ comments,
which might lead to multi-vector dialogues and even conflicts between participants in online
communication. In addition, a new communication channel is openned when the original
text becomes a trigger for presenting commenter’s own positions which is not related to the
main topic of the publication. Data excerpted from four popular Bulgarian online media were
processed by means of content analysis. Seventeen different types of readers’ comments were
identified and discussed in terms of their direction, frequency of occurrence and potential
for provoking further comments and sustaining discussion among readers. Analysis showed
that there is no single classification of readers’ reactions, and their direction depends on a
number of factors, such as the topic of message, its relevance, commenter’s attitude to the
topic, the number, quality and direction of previous comments, and thereader’s emotional
involvement. Most numerous are comments on article topic, followed by reactions to previous
readers’ opinions. Significantly fewer are negative reactions to people’s mentality and other
commentators’ opinions, and to the article quality. Comments on images accompanying
the text, on individual polititians, politics in general, journalists, moderators, and topics not
directly related to the article, have smaller or zero generating potential.

dc.description.abstract

value:
In modern Russian media, Russian participles and participial adjectives, nouns and pronouns,
which are functional homonyms (similar-sounding etymologically related words), are widely
used. In the present paper, based on 3,462 examples selected from the National Corpus of the
Russian language, we analyze the prerequisites and the specifics of the transition of participles
to other parts of speech, and show the differences between participles and their functional
homonyms. The main prerequisite for adjectivation, substantiation and pronominalization of
the participle is the attribute of the adjective contained in it, while the semantics of the participle,
its position in the sentence and context play an important role. The transition of the
participle to other parts of speech is of a gradual nature. Syncretic grammatical character, semantic
compression and variability of syntactic functions make the participle one of the priority
means of expressing such characteristic features of scientific texts as accuracy, consistency,
conciseness and informativeness. In scientific texts, participles and their functional homonyms
have different functions: substantive participles mainly perform a nominative function,
adjectivated participles — a characterizing function, and pronominalized participles — deictic
and other text-forming functions. Studying Russian participles is very difficult for Chinese
students due to the fact that Chinese, unlike Russian, is the language of the analytical system,
there is no form of participle in it. The division into parts of speech in Chinese is a special
problem, since there are no specific morphological indicators in Chinese that characterize
each part of speech. The results of the study can be useful when considering complex grammatical
issues of the Russian language in the Chinese audience.

dc.description.abstract

value:
Under the influence of globalization in media texts in Serbian language, as well as in all other
Slavic languages, many new words, originating from the English language, have appeared.
Those words, hybrids, began to fill the dictionaries of neologisms of all Slavic languages, including
Serbian dictionaries. They represent a combination of an English stem and a Slavic
affix, or vice versa. However, today the creativity goes even further, and more and more Serbian
words that appear in media texts are combining affixes that they never had before. Thus,
those words are given new grammatical and pragmatic functions. Many of these new words
will never move from the sphere of occasionalisms to the sphere of neologisms, i. e. they will
never be more widely used. On the one hand, the authors of media texts (first of all, columnists)
nowadays take the liberty to cross the boundaries of the word formation and the use of
lexemes, in the way that only writers, especially poets could do so far. This paper lists and
describes word formation and grammatical innovations associated with the onomatopoeic adverbs,
word formation and grammatical innovations with verbs, word formation and semantic
innovations associated with diminutive forms, and noun innovations with a zero suffix. It is
important to understand that these creative processes the journalist starts with Serbian language
and ends with Serbian language, which contains in itself a hidden influence of (anglo-)
globalization onto Serbian language. It may also represent a psycholinguistic impact of globalization on the linguistic behavior of Serbian speakers. The same process occurs in other
Slavic languages, and the special attention should be given to that, since we are talking about
language changes caused by a borrowed model of behavior and thinking.

The study is an attempt to reveal and describe the main directions of digital transformation of
business models of professional sports organizations through the example of the US National
Football League. Based on the Johnson, Christensen and Kagermann’s approach to describe four
main components of a successful business model, the authors analyzed the National Football
League business model and studied digital technologies impact on the business model components.
With reference to the results of analysis as well as the available materials published in foreign
mass media, the authors defined the main directions of digital transformation for business
models of professional sports organizations. The first direction of transformation is to change
the customer value proposition by means of fan engagement into value added chain. The second
direction relates to the creation of new revenue channels through business model transformation
into D2C type. The results of the current study contribute to the existing research on of business
models of sports organizations and can be applied by sports managers in building a digital marketing
strategy and a strategy for business model transformation.

dc.description.abstract

value:
In the corporate political activity literature, abundant research has examined the lobbying activity
in the United States and its relationship with firms’ financial performance. Lobbying in the
US emerged at the same time as the state itself, and the democratic system of government contributed
to its rapid development. However, there have been few studies of firms headquartered
outside the United States and that examine how nationality affects their lobbying activity. This
paper relies on institutional theory to argue that high lobbying expenditures by multinational
corporations would increase its annual revenue. It also argues that this effect is moderated by
the nationality of the firm and its size. The formulated hypotheses were tested using a sample
of 51 pharmaceutical companies spanning the fifteen-year period 2005–2020 and representing
12 countries. As moderators, two measurements of the size of the company were used: total assets
and the number of employees. The obtained findings support the hypothesis on the relationship
between lobbying expenditure and annual revenue, as described above. However, the findings
do not support the arguments about a moderating effect of size on this relationship. The study is
limited to the one specific sector. However, due to the universality of measurement, further comparative
studies between sectors in different countries are possible. The study results enhance the
understanding of the factors that determine corporate political activity and provide insights for
further development of the topic and the extension of knowledge. This study holds important
implications for firms’ personnel policy, lobbying strategy optimisation and business location
management.

This paper aims to analyze online customers’ reviews and gain insight into customer satisfaction
factors drawn from a big user-generated content of US online retailers. This user-generated
content has become more insightful, especially in the CO VID-19 era as the result of a rapid
increase in online shopping. This study uses a big textual data of 5 340 786 online reviews which
was collected from the platform bizratesurvey.com. The study focuses on individual customers’
reviews of 839 US online retailers. Word frequency analysis and latent dirichlet allocation methods
were used to process the data. The results revealed three main topics related to the ease of use,
product, and delivery that were mentioned by highly satisfied customers of US online retailers.
The authors have labeled the topics properly by considering at least twenty of the most probable
words in each topic. The results provide a pathway for online retail executives for enhancing
shopping experiences through the ease of purchasing, the improvement of product quality and
delivery for customers. Practitioners can replicate the process of data analysis fulfilled in this
study in order to monitor customer feedback. The findings also provide a new way of using big
textual data from customer reviews in further studies.

Digital technologies play an increasingly big role in all areas of life and are changing the processes
and structures of organizations from different spheres fundamentally. Human resource
management is currently one of the key organizational processes going through an active stage
of development through digitization. With the consideration of the growing percentage of digital
HR practices, the competencies of HR professionals, line managers, and employees are also
undergoing changes. This study systematizes the results of research on HR digitization over the
past two decades. Based on the literature review, the article discusses the main directions of HR
digitization, factors influencing the implementation and usage of HR technologies, and the avenues
for future research on this topic. Three main directions of HR digitization are outlined: the
digitization of a person, digitization of work, and digitization of HR processes. The factors influencing
the implementation and usage of HR technologies are divided into three blocks, namely,
organizational, technical, and human. The areas of further research include the context in which
digitization takes place, its processes, social and technical aspects, as well as the implications. The
article can be of interest to researchers of this topic and organizations which undergo or plan
digital transformation.

This study examines the relationship between state ownership and internationalization in Russian
companies. International expansion of state firms from emerging markets is the topic frequently
addressed in the research community of international business and strategic management,
whereby the studies on emerging markets state-owned enterprises internationalization
provide contradictory results. One of the reasons is the difference between the contexts of countries
where state-owned enterprises operate which affects the way how state ownership is related
to internationalization. Russian state-owned enterprises are the least studied companies in terms
of their international expansion, and the examination of the relationship between state ownership
and internationalization of firms can fill in the gap in the emerging market state-owned enterprises
internationalization puzzle. The paper shows the study of the internationalization of the
Russian state-owned enterprises spanning a five-year period 2013–2017. The results show that
the more the degree of state ownership in a Russian company is, the less its internationalization
is. The study contributes to the discussion of the role of state ownership for the internationalization
of emerging market firms by emphasizing the importantce of the contextual country specifics.
The study also discusses the role of a state in the internationalization of companies.

This paper aims to analyse the implementation of public-private partnership in the healthcare
sector as a way to use private financing and expertise to achieve public policy goals in Albania.
The study consists of an overview of the four public-private partnerships in the healthcare sector
and the detailed analysis of major charateristics of two of them. The healthcare sector as a study
object was chosen due to the implemented reforms aimed to improve the public health system,
and the quality of service. The case study is based on the data collected from the analysis of the
contracts signed between the parties, reports, interviews and the documents on the management
of these contracts. The research also relies on secondary sources of information focused on
legislation and other government legal acts. The article highlights the need to adopt a long-term
strategy in the field of healthcare as well as applicable standards of monitoring of the implementation
procedures. During the COVID-19 pandemic time, the implementation of these contracts
became even more important for a the country where the contracts were treated as a way to
improve the quality of public services. A number of offered recommendations in the paper may
encourage further research in this field of study.

dc.description.abstract

value: The paper studies a dynamic network game that models the competitive behavior of firms in a market. It is assumed that firms, under the condition of simultaneous and independent choice of their actions, implement the behavior that determines their production and investment behavior in each period. The production behavior of the firm reflects the ongoing quantities that it should produce and supply to the market. The investment behavior specifies the ongoing amounts of investment that the firm allocates to the modernization of its production technology in order to prevent it from becoming obsolete. Next, the unit cost is assumed to depend on the firm's investment and the investment of its competitors, which are determined by an exogenous network. Two types of Nash equilibria are characterized: open-loop and feedback. Finally, we analyze the impact of the network and related model parameters on firms' behavior, profits, and competitive advantage.

dc.description.abstract

value: In this work, the object of study is the economy of the region. To describe it, a regular method for constructing difference input - output dynamic models is proposed. This approach involves modeling not only the sphere of production, but also the sphere of consumption. To do this, the vector of phase variables includes the gross domestic product. The variability of the model consists in the ability to take into account various macroeconomic parameters depending on the ultimate goals of analysis and control of macroeconomic trends. It is shown that the dynamics of the economy with direct investment in various sectors of the economy is described by linear controlled difference systems. If there is a need to take into account other macroeconomic parameters that increase the sensitivity of the model to managerial influences, then this leads to nonlinear difference systems of various types. In the final part of the article, a scenario approach for the development of investment projects is described. This approach is based on the principles of constructing program controls and stabilizing the corresponding program movements of a controlled difference system.

dc.description.abstract

value: The paper considers the relationship between search theory and information theory. The traditional problem of search theory is to develop a search plan for a physical object in the sea or on land. The search plan has to develop the distribution of available search resources in such a way that the probability of detection the search object is to be maximum. The optimal solution is traditionally considered as so-called "uniformly optimal search plan", which provides a uniform distribution of the posterior probability of the location of the object as the search is conducted. At the same time, optimality simultaneously according to the criteria of maximum detection probability and equality of a posteriori probability is possible only for the exponential detection function, which is used most often in search theory. For other kinds of detection functions, the optimal solutions according to the specified criteria do not match. In this paper, the approach to this problem is considered on the basis of the maximum entropy principle. For a situation of discrete distribution, it is shown that, within the framework of information theory, the search problem has a simpler solution that does not depend on the kind of the detection function.

dc.description.abstract

value: The study aims to develop optimal approaches to the search for borrowings in scientific works. The article discusses the stages of searching for the presence of borrowings, such as preprocessing, rough filtering of texts, searching for similar texts, and searching for borrowings. The main focus is on the description of approaches and techniques that can be effectively implemented at each stage. For example, for the preprocessing stage, it may be converting text characters from uppercase to lowercase, removing punctuation marks, and removing stop words. For the stage of rough text filtering, it is filters by topic and word frequency. It may be calculating the importance of words in the context of the text and representing the word as a vector in multidimensional space to determine the proximity measure for the stage of finding similar texts. Finally, it is a search for an exact match, paraphrases and a measure of similarity of expressions for the stage of finding borrowings. The scientific novelty lies in using Markov chains to find the similarity of texts for the second and third stages of the search for borrowings proposed by authors. As a result, the example shows the technique of using Markov chains for text representation, searching for the most frequently occurring words, building a graph of a Markov chain of words, and the prospects for using Markov chains of texts for rough filtering and searching for similar texts.
