Гендерология в проблемах и перспективах развития этнологической науки

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problems of the development of ethnology within the framework of the modern paradigm of human sciences and scientific and humanitarian knowledge. Particular attention is paid to the potential role of ideas, principles and cognitive methods of gender studies in the development of ethnological science. A number of examples demonstrate the fundamental difference in the interpretation of the same phenomena of culture and gender existence of the Caucasian ethnic groups within the framework of ethnology and from the point of view of gcndcrology. It is emphasized that when considered on the basis of gendcrology, the usual phenomena of ethnic cultures appear in a new light, requiring re-reading, rethinking and re-evaluation. This concerns the meanings and genesis of traditions, forms and norms of public communication between men and women, the status of men and women in culture, the interpretation of the cultural and symbolic world of an ethnic group, as well as the social and semantic dimensions of ethno-fiction, including in retrospect.
