СОЦИОКУЛЬТУРНЫЙ ФАКТОР В ПОЛИТИКЕ: СИМВОЛИЧЕСКИЕ КОНСТРУКТЫ

Abstract

Politics as a sphere of public life is a border area for all other spheres, while it acquires a special dependence on the characteristics of behavior, which is significantly influenced by the cultural aspect. That is why the process of studying and analyzing the political sphere of the life of society involves the study, first of all, of the sociocultural factor. In this paper, the authors propose to consider it through three components: the positioning of a person as the main subject of politics, the features of mutual influence on political behavior of morality, morality, humanism, axeology and ethics, and the statement of this mutual influence through a formally legal element. The first component is largely associated with symbolic constructs, since the role of a person as a subject or object of politics directly depends on the political picture of the world that he has. The more political experience a person has, the more realistic this picture is and, as a result, the more active the subject is in politics. The second component in itself is a symbolic construct, since outside of symbolism there is no culture and its constituent elements. Accordingly, influencing the political behavior of the individual, morality, morality, axeology, ethics, and especially humanism, permeate it with a symbolic component. Formally, the legal element fully embodies the features of the political conditions in which society and the state exist, and from this point of view it acts as a symbol of the era in which it is formed. Taking into account the above interpretations, the authors conclude that outside the symbolic component it is impossible to comprehend the existing political problems and find ways to solve them.
