Abstract
El propósito del artículo es identificar los motivos, tipos y áreas de voluntariado en el sistema de respuesta de emergencia en la región de Lipetsk, Rusia. Para obtener las características cuantitativas del problema estudiado, se ha utilizado el método de sondeo masivo en el lugar de residencia, trabajo y estudio de los encuestados. El motivo principal de los participantes en las actividades de voluntariado es la razón altruista. El 8,1% de los voluntarios ha definido su ámbito de actividad como voluntariado en situaciones de emergencia. El 31,9% está potencialmente preparado para ayudar a las personas en situaciones de emergencia. Esta variación en las cifras podría explicarse por el hecho de que muchos voluntarios no tienen las habilidades necesarias suficientes. Además, la participación en situaciones de emergencia, liquidación, accidentes de tráfico, extinción de incendios, etc., está asociada a un posible riesgo.
Highlights
To date, the volunteer movement has firmly been established in society as one of the indispensable institutions
The sociological research conducted in Russia allows us to study this type of volunteering in the context of the volunteer movement in its whole, especially taking into account its quite specific structure in Russia

Summary

Their recognition in its own right serves as a measure of legitimacy for the results of sociological reflection on volunteer practices In this regard, the main effect of what we can call the “establishment of the volunteer movement,” both in Russia and in the global community at large, is precisely this pre-reflexive obviousness of volunteering, its “social significance,” recorded before and outside of any formal procedures for determining successfulness (Zborovsky, 2017). The history of a systematic sociological study of volunteering could be traced back to several decades (Zborovsky, 2017) While proceeding with it in this article, among other issues, we will try to point out that the problems of volunteer work in an emergency situation (emergency) appear to be at the intersection of the most significant issues raised by volunteer research. The systematization of options for volunteer work in this sphere, as well as the clarification of the place of involvement in relevant activities in the expectations system from the volunteer work, remains a step towards a holistic description of
