Abstract
The relevance of studying changes in the political consciousness and behavior of women is associated with the trend of gender asymmetry in the structure of the population, persisting gender inequalities in the political sphere, and growing socio-cultural risks associated with the digitalization processes. The purpose of the article is to characterize the stages in the evolution of political consciousness and behavior of women in modern-day Russia and possible changes in the conditions of digitalization. The author identifies the evolution: stages: the crisis mobilization of political consciousness and women’s behavior (1987–1991); differentiation of political consciousness and behavior of women and readiness for decisive action (1992–1999); women’s electoral activity (2000–2007) and the stage of women’s political absenteeism and the search for a new identity (2008 – present). The digitalization of politics is associated with a significant change in the traditional practices of socio-political interaction, there is a rejection of its hierarchical structure, which is facilitated by the absolutization of the network connections built on impersonal algorithms of big data. That may contribute to increase the participation of women. Most notably, the development of electronic platforms for collecting the signatures and declarations as well as of social networks allow women to articulate their civic positions, build up their social capital, and realize group and socially significant interests
