РАСПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕ СОЦИОГЕНДЕРНОЙ АКТИВНОСТИ ПРИ ПЕРЕХОДЕ К ЦИФРОВОМУ ГОСУДАРСТВУ

Abstract

The authors consider the issue of citizens’ use of digital technologies and services in everyday life and in manifestations of civic engagement. The answers of the respondents to the question about the different directions of technologies used show clear differences in the gender and educational cross-section and can be used both for further comparative analysis and for the development of projects to reduce the digital divide. For example, female respondents use portals of state, educational and medical services more often than men, while male respondents are more active than women in Internet discussions on social and political issues. There is a noticeable difference in the entertainment sphere: as the level of education increases, male respondents use online opportunities to spend their leisure time less and less frequently. While women, on the contrary, the higher the level of education, the more often the use of “digital” for the leisure, recreation, entertainment was noted. The authors conclude that the preservation of an extremely high burden on women in matters of organizing the family life (health care, housing and utilities, education and recreation of children, shopping, etc.) forces women to more actively master and more often use digital innovations for optimization in solving the household difficulties
