Towards gender equality: women’s leadership in higher education

This article aims to provide a systematic review of the scientific literature on women’s leadership in higher education. This study was conducted in April 2024. It was based on scientific articles, selected from the Academia.edu portal. The study employed a non-experimental research design. The representation of women in management and leadership positions in the higher education sector has increased significantly, yet this growth has been limited to academic roles with the requisite authority to teach. Management positions with greater responsibility have not seen the same level of advancement. The prevailing masculine culture that pervades higher education presents an impediment to women's advancement to senior management roles. This is attributable to a confluence of interrelated factors, including structural constraints, competitive job demands, demanding work schedules, and the necessity to balance work and family life. The situation is further complicated by the introduction of accountability measures and sophisticated evaluation instruments, designed to assess and accredit work processes, hyper-productivity, and continuous evaluation. Despite the growing focus on gender issues, the prevalence and intensity of negative gender stereotypes about women appear to be on the rise. The negative dynamics, observed in sociological surveys, can be explained by examining the current state of gender ideology, education, and public awareness within society. The observed trends in economic activity, employment status, and salaries of men and women do not appear to be driving significant changes in gender stereotypes or the socioeconomic status of women. In light of these considerations, it becomes imperative to examine the necessity of implementing a feminist approach to appointing managers and leaders within higher education institutions. It is important to acknowledge that the roles, duties, and responsibilities of leaders within higher education institutions may differ considerably. It can be reasonably argued that the styles of leadership, employed by male and female higher education managers and leaders, exert a profound influence over the nature of organizational cultures. It is of the utmost importance that each higher education institution conducts an assessment of its own to ascertain its current situation and the manner, in which its managers and leaders contribute to the overall organizational success. It is recommended that institutions of higher education implement policies that consider gender aspects, with the aim of enhancing the utilization of women’s potential for leadership. It is imperative to implement a gender-based assessment mechanism to ensure equitable competition between women and men in the selection process for managerial and leadership roles

러시아 정교와 반유대주의

When the Soviet system collapsed and the new “faith” that had dominated that society, Marxism-Leninism, was abandoned, it was not surprising that Orthodoxy was considered as the faith to replace it. Historically, in Russia, Orthodoxy and the state recognized each other's roles and always maintained a close relationship. Until just before the Russian Revolution, the Russian Orthodox Church was influential in all strata of society, including the intelligentsia. During the Soviet period, the Orthodox Church was forced to give way to the new communist ideology as a state ideology, and Orthodoxy, as a fundamental part of the system, was to be extinguished. However, during World War II, Stalin enlisted the Orthodox Church in the fight against Nazi Germany, and the Church and the state were restored to a cooperative relationship, and Russian Orthodoxy was able to survive in an atheistic Soviet society because of its political usefulness. In the post-Soviet period, Russian Orthodoxy was revived as an alternative to fill the ideological vacuum, gradually regaining its pre-revolutionary status in Russian society and becoming very close to the powers that be. Since Putin's rise to power, a number of phenomena have been observed in Russia, including the rise of nationalist tendencies in various sectors of Russian society, and the Russian Orthodox Church has joined the movement. The most prominent phenomenon is the fact that Russian nationalist ideology in the post-Soviet period has been linked to the Russian Orthodox Church, and the policies of the Putin administration, especially with regard to religion, can be interpreted as state-centered nationalist tendencies. The most characteristic of these phenomena is the role of Russian Orthodoxy in the spread of anti-Semitic ideology in modern Russia. This study examines the anti-Semitic tendencies of the Russian Orthodox Church, focusing on the publication of the Protocols of Zion.

METHODOLOGICAL CHALLENGES OF RESEARCH ON PROBLEMS OF SOCIALIZATION OF PERSONALITY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN WAR

Relevance. Despite being traditional and important for psychological and sociological sciences, the problem of socialization remains vulnerable to criticism due to the apologetic nature of its theoretical and methodological foundations. Within the limits of traditional approaches, the success or failure of the process and results of socialization are considered, in fact, in the interests of the officially recognized state ideology with a corresponding set of ideals and values. This may be acceptable for countries with established democratic regimes, but it generates many insidious questions in the conditions of confrontation between societies with different civilizational reference points. This is the situation we have today in the context of the russian-Ukrainian war. Methodology is based on the discursive approach, which does not deprive the researcher of the right to evaluate socialization from his or her ideological position, but excludes the extrapolation of these evaluations to the psychological (procedural) content of socialization. According to this approach, the discourses in which socialization takes place, rather than its psychological content itself, can be evaluated from a moral or ideological perspective. This allows for a more realistic evaluation of the socialization experience of different societies, different countries and peoples, for comparison, etc. People’s participation in the reproduction and development of discourse can be traced by the results of monitoring all-Ukrainian representative surveys conducted by the Institute of Social and Political Psychology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine since the early 1990s. Results. During this time, the territorial-state discourse has gradually formed as a leading one in Ukrainian society. Its value imperative is the attitude of state independence. About 80% of citizens believe that although there are many obstacles in the way of our statehood, Ukraine should still be independent.

Mainstreaming anti-Semitism on Turkey’s public broadcaster TRT: Examining Payitaht: Abdülhamid

While conspiracy theories have traditionally received attention from the Turkish public and political elite, recently, however, they have proliferated when explaining complex situations. This paper examines conspiracy theories in Turkey and the role of entertainment media, specifically the popular period drama, Payitaht: Abdülhamid, in mainstreaming conspiracy theories. Payitaht: Abdülhamid, as an ideological state apparatus, repurposes anti-Semitism as salient conspiracy theories by creating scapegoats and existential others. This paper argues that the state uses entertainment media to disseminate conspiracy theories and, in effect, endorses anti-Semitism. As a result, anti-Semitism has transformed from a marginal movement to a mainstream movement.

Reactualization of Pancasila as a Source of Indonesian Law in Realizing Justice

Pancasila, as the basis of the state, continues to experience fluctuations and challenges occasionally. As the basis of the state's view of life, Pancasila directs how the process and law are carried out to fulfill justice amid state life. This doctrinal legal research reflexively examines Pancasila as the basis of the state and the source of law. The research findings show that Pancasila is the basis of the state as well as the basis of the state's view of life, which serves as a guide in the management and structuring of the state. In the legal context, Pancasila is a legal ideal (rechtsidee) primary source of state law. Pancasila serves to ensure justice by assessing how the law is formulated and to determine the legality of a regulation. At the praxis level, the Constitutional Court, as the guardian of the state ideology, is expected to make Pancasila a touchstone in testing every regulation.

The Pancasila Ideological Direction Bill (RUU‐HIP): A Missed Opportunity?

Indonesia faces a number of acute developmental challenges, hence, there is a need for evidence-based policies to address a range of socio-political issues. This article examines the rise and fall of an ill-fated bill introduced into parliament in 2020 (the “RUU-HIP”) which sought to reshape the nation’s understanding of the state philosophy, Pancasila, while promoting “policy based on national science and technology.” The article argues that Pancasila, which mandates “Belief in the One and Only God” as its first tenet, has a number of unintended and damaging consequences; it limits freedom of religion and thought; bolsters the position of powerful mainstream religious organisations; contributes to extremist, marginalising religious stances; and acts as a potent and pervasive barrier to innovation at all levels of social and political life. As a lens through which to view Indonesia’s national ideology, the article examines the RUU-HIP and takes account of the historical roots of the state ideology and the pivotal role of its main progenitor, Soekarno. It examines some of the deleterious effects of Pancasila outlined above and concludes that the first sila, along with a controversial Blasphemy Law, ought to be amended and repealed respectively, to allow for greater freedom of religion and thought. The article concludes that while amending Pancasila may, contrary to prevailing legal thought, be theoretically possible, in the current socio-political climate this would be unthinkable for most Indonesians.

British Society in the reflection of the press: fascist sentiments among the World War I veterans in the 1930s

Importance. The topic of the threat of fascist ideas and movements at the present stage is increasingly being brought up in the framework of public and scientific discussions. The coverage of this problem of the history of Great Britain in the 1930s is connected with the need to study the development of the features of fascism in society and in the society of veterans of the World War I. The novelty of the work is to consider the strengthening of the right-wing sentiments of part of the community of British war veterans in the 1930s, while fascism in Great Britain has been studied most widely by historical science in relation to political organizations and parties. Revealing the connection of veterans with the fascist movement will reveal the essence of the state ideology and the contradiction in public sentiment.Materials and Methods. Within the framework of a historical and systematic approach, the Fascist movement in Great Britain was considered as one of the features of the development of public sentiment. The problem of fascization of British society was the duality of political attitudes. On the one hand, representatives of British fascism were marginals, and on the other, prominent figures of the largest veterans’ organization, the British Legion, were the exponents of the ideas of fascism. Using the prosopographic method, the social and political activities of the World War I veterans were investigated.Results and Discussion. Based on the analysis of the development of Great Britain in the 1930s, the specifics of public sentiment are described. The veteran movement in the country adhered to various ideologies. By the mid-1930s, opinions arose among veteran leaders about the possibility of uniting with the fascists. During this period, the veterans of the World War I themselves, with the assistance of politicians and the aristocracy, as well as the support of capitalist circles, created right-wing radical organizations that openly adopted nationalist, anti-Semitic, and racist positions. The possibility of veterans coming under the influence of fascist organizations actually existed, given the numerous contacts and joint activities both within the UK itself and with foreign organizations and politicians (in particular, with the leaders of the Third Reich and Italy).Conclusion. Prominent figures of the veteran movement (in particular, the British Legion) are responsible for the development of fascism in the UK and have contributed to the policy of appeasing the aggressor. Their activities in the process of unleashing the World War II were derived from the prevailing socio-economic system. In the 1930s, veterans and their leaders became instruments and sometimes representatives of the interests of competing groups of the economically dominant class in Great Britain. Dissatisfaction with the policies of the British governments and the rise of fascist sentiment was reflected in social protest and criticism in the press.

Early Church as Utopian Cult: The Case of Hebrews

Abstract This article uses cultic studies to explicate the development of the earliest churches, using Hebrews as a case study. “Cult” is defined as a group that suppresses individuality and critical thinking, demands intense commitment and loyalty to an individual or ideology, and curtails or eliminates personal autonomy to be replaced by the cult’s worldview. The cult-like attributes of the early ecclesia are summarized, followed by a brief introduction to cultic studies, with particular reference to the characteristics of contemporary cults, suggesting that an under-appreciated aspect of cultic appeal is the offer of utopian promises. Finally, the bite (Behavior, Information, Thoughts, Emotions) model of coercive control is applied to the hortatory sections of Hebrews and the utopian hopes held out by the author. The article concludes that the community behind Hebrews shows many characteristics of a high demand cult as defined by cultic studies.

Urgency of Addressing the Problem of State Ideology: Divergent Perspectives from Scholars and Politicians

Throughout its centuries-long history, Russia has repeatedly attempted to define its historical purpose, determine the course and strategy of sociopolitical development, and articulate the value preferences guiding its society. It is evident that addressing such a complex undertaking, burdened with profound objectives, necessitates an appropriate framework of ideas, perspectives, and theories. This article substantiates the possibility, necessity, and practical significance of a state ideology, while also questioning the relevance, in contemporary historical conditions, of maintaining the constitutional prohibition on a state or mandatory ideology. Russia possesses an ideology of statehood, with its main substantive components enshrined in the country’s Constitution, relevant legal statutes, annual presidential addresses to the Federal Assembly, and relevant programs, doctrines, and other political documents. Central to this ideological framework is the concept of a federal democratic legal social secular state harmoniously integrated with the traditional ideals, values, and priorities of Russian civilization. This study adopts a comparative institutional and functional approach.

From Politics of Islam to Terrorism: Discovering the Roots of Islamophobia in Indonesia

Islamophobia is an issue that has affected both minority and majority Muslim communities in many countries, including Indonesia. To gain a deeper understanding of Islamophobia in Indonesia, this study focuses on two of eight components of Islamophobia identified by Sabri Ciftci (2012), namely, Islam is perceived as a political ideology and is associated with violence. Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods, including historical-comparative and survey, the authors explore how the Indonesian government has dealt with Islamophobia since the Old and New Order periods. This research also delves into how Islamophobia has impacted minority Christians and moderate Muslims during the Reform Era, where Islam is often associated with religious intolerance and terrorism. The results indicate that Islamophobia in Indonesia has three primary root causes linked to certain Islamic societal behaviour: political tensions between Islamic fundamentalists and nationalists regarding the state ideology, religious tensions between radical Muslims and Christians resulting in intolerance, and acts of terrorism using Islamic symbols. This research concludes Islamophobia in Indonesia has switched from the government to the community level, requiring the government policy to eliminate Islamophobia in a pluralistic society.

Relevance of Lev Karsavin’s Ideas on State Cultural Policy

The article substantiates the expediency of using domestic philosophical heritage in the development of concepts and other normative documents of Russia’s cultural policy in the current situation. At present, Russian society has gained an understanding of the need to abandon the strategy of catch-up modernization and to implement socio-cultural development on the ways of deepening the country’s traditional spiritual values and its own historical vision of the multipolarity of the world. The ideas of the Russian religious philosopher L.P. Karsavin concerning such fundamental aspects of cultural policy as the peculiarities of the development of state ideology, the design of culture and state cultural programmes, the vocabulary and language of cultural studies are considered. Special attention is paid to Karsavin’s understanding of Russian culture as having Orthodox origins and developing on the basis of Orthodoxy. Attention is drawn to the importance of ensuring the unifying and living, creative character of Russian culture, the conditions of equality of different cultures and, at the same time, the presence of a hierarchy of interpenetrating cultural spheres. The development of some of L.P. Karsavin’s ideas by his followers is outlined, including the need to clarify the Christian meaning of atheism and to overcome the “irreconcilable” antagonism between religious and atheistic worldviews. The study outlines a line of enrichment of cultural theory with little-known works by L.P. Karsavin and A.A. Vaneev, which, according to the authors of the article, opens prospects for further development of new approaches to understanding the essence of cultural policy.

Construction and Consolidation of Caste System Through Ideological State Apparatuses: A Study of Girish Karnad’s Talé-Dan˙d˙a

This article critically examines Girish Karnad’s play Talé-Dan˙d˙a as a lens through which the construction and consolidation of the caste system in India is explored. The study focuses on the utilization of ideological state apparatuses (ISA) by the ‘upper-caste’ to suppress attempts at social reform and the creation of a casteless society. By analysing the characters and their interactions within the play, the article argues that repressive and non-violent state apparatuses, such as religion, family, identity formation and language are employed to perpetuate caste-based discrimination and maintain the existing social hierarchy. Drawing on Louis Althusser’s concept of ideological and repressive state apparatuses, the article provides a comprehensive analysis of how these apparatuses are instrumental in preserving caste-based inequalities and solidification of the caste system.

The United States Approach to Prosecution of Women Terrorists Who Joined the Islamic State

In January 2012, the Secretary of State, in accordance with Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), designated the Islamic State in Iraq Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). Based on this, the United States could take administrative measures against foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) associated with IS, including women. As of January 2023, the United States had formally repatriated 39 citizens. At least 11 more citizens returned of their own accord outside of formal processes, including two women. To date, 11 adults affiliated with the Islamic State, formally repatriated from Syria and Iraq to the United States, have faced charges for terrorism-related crimes. The aim of this research is to characterize the approach to female terrorist returnees in the United States. The following research problem is central to this article: How does the United States deal with the prosecution and conviction of women returnees involved in the activities of the Islamic State? The author focused research on case studies. Research methods include: analysis, synthe-sis, classification, generalization, and statistical data analysis. Women who are left on their own and remain in camps and prisons in Iraq and Syria can impose the ideology of the Islamic State on others, including their children. It is important not to treat the problem of repatriation, rehabilitation, and reintegration of camp residents shortsightedly and to take a long-term solution.
