Changes In Social Institutions Research Articles

Сетевая инновационная кластерная педагогическая лаборатория как инструмент повышения качества функционирования муниципальных образовательных комплексов и организаций

The article introduces a model developed in the Republic of Bashkortostan aimed at improving the functioning of educational organizations at the municipal level – the Network Innovative Cluster Pedagogical Laboratory, validated with direct involvement from the author. The necessity and effectiveness of the proposed management solution are substantiated. On one hand, numerous vectors of reform in Russian education converge on the common goal of implementing an individualized approach in modern schools. This approach aims to help each student develop their abilities and acquire skills for independent problem-solving in academic and life contexts. On the other hand, any changes in social institutions today occur within the contextual framework of an information society, altering the content and necessary set of knowledge, skills, and competencies. The structure of the Network Innovative Cluster Pedagogical Laboratory is examined, emphasizing the need for creating an information-educational environment, transitioning general education schools into a mode of innovative development, and focusing management efforts on positive social outcomes. This innovative educational complex contributes to the holistic development of student’s personality – intellectual, communicative, and emotional-moral, but requires ongoing monitoring of all elements from both objective and subjective perspectives.

Jump to platform faster? Gender, institutional change, and pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempt

PurposeThe authors enrich and extend the existing institutional anomie theory (IAT) in the hope of sharpening the understanding of the joint effects of selected cultural values and social institutional changes on women's pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempts. The authors theorize that women are culturally discouraged to pursue pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempts or wealth accumulation in a specific culture. This discouragement creates an anomic strain that motivates women to deviate from cultural prescriptions by engaging in pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempts at a faster speed. Building on this premise, the authors hypothesize that changes in social institutions facilitate the means of achievement for women due to the potential opportunities inherent in such institutional changes.Design/methodology/approachUsing a randomly selected sample of 1,431 registered active individual users with a minimum of 10,000 followers on a leading entertainment live-streaming platform in the People's Republic of China, the authors examined a unique mix of cultural and institutional changes and their effects on the speed of women's engagement in live-streaming platform activity.FindingsThe authors find support for the impact of the interaction between changes in social institution conditions and cultural values. Unexpectedly, the authors also find a negative impact of cultural values on women's speed of engaging in pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempts.Originality/valueThe authors add institutional change to the IAT framework and provide a novel account for the variation in the pre-entrant entrepreneurial attempts by women on the platform.

Manajemen Pendidikan Perempuan Pada Masa Sultan Syarif Kasim II di Kesultanan Siak Sri Indrapura Tahun 1927-1945

This research is motivated by the researcher's interest in the development of women's education in the Siak Sultanate, to be precise, during the reign of Sultan Syarif Kasim II. The main problem studied in this research is how to manage women's education to the realization of educational outcomes in women's schools formed by Sultan Syarif Kasim II in 1927-1945. In general, this study aims to describe the pattern of women's education formed by Sultan Syarif Kasim II and his consort in the Siak Sultanate. This study was studied by applying historical methods, including four steps, namely heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. Based on the research findings, the pattern of women's education in Siak Sri Indrapura was formed directly by the sultanate including the formation of the curriculum, procurement of teachers and students and the facilities provided. Although both were managed by the sultanate, there were different styles of teaching between the two women's schools founded by Sultan Syarif Kasim II, namely Sultanah Latifah School which focused more on teaching hand skills and homemaking, and Madrasa Annisa which taught more Islamic religious knowledge. The results of the education of the two girls' schools gave birth to women who were prosperous in terms of changes in social institutions, which succeeded in becoming a weaver, educator, and preacher. Thus the management of education formed by Sultan Syarif Kasim II succeeded in contributing greatly to the welfare of women's education in the Sultanate of Siak Sri Indrapura

Invigorating Interfaith Consciousness for the Common Good: Reimagining the Role of African Religion and Pentecostalism in Contemporary South Africa

Contemporary South Africa reflects complex, diverse, and evolving religious realities. Changes continue to manifest at the confluence of encounters between various religions and rapid changes in social institutions that affect, in one way or another, various religions in the nation. These realities are typically embedded in sociocultural contexts and give clarity and meaning to religious experiences. In the post-apartheid era, the spirit of openness toward religious tolerance often dwindles when it comes to interactions between African religion and Pentecostalism. When people understand why followers of other religions believe and practice their rituals and sacraments, this knowledge may help dispel mis- and disinformation and thereby construct inter-religious common ground. Using an extensive review of the relevant literature, this article investigates some of the factors that may limit harmony between African religion and Pentecostalism in South Africa. After providing some definitions and historical context, we discuss the power and legacy of anti-apartheid interfaith solidarity. We also explore ongoing factors hindering interfaith engagements between African religion and Pentecostalism in South Africa. We then explore opportunities for interfaith dialogue in South Africa. Utilizing Walter Hollenweger’s Pentecostal intercultural theology, we argue that expressive liturgy for biodiversity and sustainability, communal participation for reconciliation, and experiential spirituality focused on land care could provide a potential ‘fourth’ approach to interfaith dialogue for African religion and Pentecostalism in South Africa. This includes underappreciated albeit profitable interrelationships between Indigenous knowledge, traditional spirituality, and sustainable development. We also acknowledge some limitations and opportunities for future research. Finally, we offer a succinct concluding synthesis that recapitulates the paper’s main points. This article aims to invigorate interfaith consciousness through meaningful thematization of pertinent issues, including the articulation and application of relevant intercultural theology.

Psychological and pedagogical understanding of the reform and development of higher education

Introduction. The article substantiates the idea of a psychological and pedagogical understanding of the reform and development of higher education, and departure from the Bologna Process. The international project «Fundamental University Education» put forward by Russia is revealed.Purpose setting. Understanding the logic and methodology of education as a social institution that performs the function of including an individual in the culture of a given society and introducing him to it, allows us to comprehend and get closer to understanding training and education as a process of transforming external knowledge into internal, spiritual, forming and shaping a person.Methods and methodology of the study. In accordance with the objectives of the study, the following general scientific methods were used: theoretical analysis of the literature, longitudinal and cross-sectional experimental research, verification, modeling, and qualitative analysis of the reforming.Results. In Russia the educational space is formed under the influence of processes associated with the development of information transformations in all spheres of life. Therefore, informatization becomes one of the factors causing significant changes in social institutions, in particular in the educational system. In the framework of higher education in personnel training, priority should be given to the creation of the foundation of the system and structure of education, the priority of which is methodologically important long-lived and invariant knowledge that contributes to a holistic perception of the scientific picture of the world, the intellectual flourishing of the individual and its adaptation to rapidly changing conditions.Conclusion. In the development of the Russian society, the strategy of civilizational development is changing, there is a search for new values. We believed and continue to believe that it is inappropriate to abandon the Russian levels of training of professional personnel. The absence of the most important stage, the training of specialists, has caused significant harm to our youth in finding employment, because graduates of bachelor’s and master’s degree do not have a specialty, but only higher education in a certain area, which does not make it possible to professionally perform work. The departure from the Bologna System will allow us to return to the best Russian traditions aimed at the development of all levels of education.

An Analysis of the Sri Lankan Buddhist Monk during the British Colonial Period

Changes in social institutions became widespread, extensive, and far-reaching since the British occupation of the whole Island. Although previously the country was invaded by the Portuguese and the Dutch, the implementation of the recommendations contained in the Colebrook Commission Report in the 19th century propelled Sri Lanka into a rapid change in its social and economic progress. The establishment of the printing press during the time of British rule can be regarded as a profound social event in the history of Sri Lanka. The introduction of modern technology into the country should be recognized as the greatest contribution by the British. It can be pointed out that this knowledge of technology changed the traditional social structures prevailing in Sri Lankan society at the time. Poets began to depict the emerging contemporary society in poetry. This paper examines: The nature of the disposition of monks, The power exercised by the monks, and How the lives of monks changed during the colonial periodIt also shows how the Christians portrayed the Buddhist monks from their point of view, and their attitude towards Buddhist monks influenced the ordinary people. From this perspective, the poetical works of this period are analyzed. For this research paper, most materials used in this study have been obtained from publications and materials available at the Colombo Museum, the Department of Historical Documents in the main Library of the University of Peradeniya, the Asia and African Sections and Social Science Sections of the British Library in London.

Essay on Sociocultural Analysis of Cinema: “Assassination Nation” by Sam Levinson

Cinema is an open self-referential system that is capable of influencing society through film images, changing the position of viewers on certain issues. Thereby, socio-cultural analysis of a film “Assassination Nation” by S. Levinson (2018) is topical. This film was chosen for analysis because it claimed to be an up-to-date artistic reflection of cultural, informational and political events that had taken place in the recent past in Europe and America. Hypothesis of the study of this film is that the director Sam Levinson, using manipulative means of film language, inspires the audience as a society for a positive perception of marginal and deviant images, which can create the prerequisites for real deviant behavior. The author undertook a comprehensive analysis of the film images in order to identify the propagated ideas of neoliberalism and deviance. The analysis of the film was carried out using a systematic approach to cultural phenomena and using quantitative and qualifying methods of cultural studies and sociology. The methods in use elicited main themes and microthemes. These are the themes of private life freedom, dangers of data alongside the Internet, inability of women, transgender people and gays to fight legally for their rights, social cruelty of the crowd. Research hypothesis is confirmed. The director of the film choses delinquent methods of solution of social problems, using manipulation of the audience and propaganda of delinquent behavior. In this case, the filmmakers use methods to promote marginal behavior related to the current political agenda. This connection reveals a more global connection between the film industry and changes in social institutions. The results of the study can be practically used within the framework of special courses in cultural studies and media criticism.

IMPACT OF SOCIAL MEDIA USE: ANALYSIS OF CHARACTER CHANGE IN ISLAM

Social media is an online medium, with its users being able to easily participate, share, and create content including blogs, social networks, wikis, forums and virtual worlds. Blogs, social networks and wikis are the most common forms of social media used by people around the world. The positive impact of social media is that it makes it easier for us to interact with many people, expand relationships, distance and time are no longer a problem, easier to express ourselves, information dissemination can take place quickly, costs are cheaper. While the negative impact of social media is to keep people who are close and vice versa, face-to-face interactions tend to decrease, making people addicted to the internet, causing conflicts, privacy problems, vulnerable to bad influences from others.

Female imagery in mass culture at the beginning of the 20th century and its representation in literature, media, posters, and cinema

The turn of the 19th – 20th centuries is considered to be the beginning of the formation of the phenomenon that will be called "mass culture". The general crisis, population migration, the collapse of the aristocracy and common attitudes and values of Orthodoxy led to a radical change in social institutions, social strata and customary classes. Industrialization led to a reduction in working hours, manual labor began to be replaced by machine labor; therefore, a clear boundary arose between the two spheres of life of the urban working mass, i.e. work and leisure. In a traditional society, free time was spent with family, professional community, or neighbors - one way or another, in a team. In the divided and variegated mass of the city, people found themselves on their own. The leisure of the atomized mass subjects demanded satisfaction of the need to rest, to escape from the stupefying, "alienated", monotonous labor. The response to this need is the entertainment industry of mass culture, whose values are in the form of a commodity. There is a huge, massive demand for products and services that meet the needs of leisure: books, magazines, records, films. The article shows that mass culture at the average level consolidates the popular stereotypes of female images in the mass consciousness in accordance with their functional purpose. Positive female images of mothers (traditional type) and sisters of mercy (high incarnation of the fatal type) dominate in social advertising appealing to universal values and spirituality. Commercial advertisements that appeal to seduction and recognition represent an idealized femme fatale. The art of cinematography addresses deeply rooted motives of fall and rise, physical desecration and moral cleansing (the dominant type of the fatal heroine). The material of the article can be useful in the preparation of courses on the history of Russian culture and history of art.

ЕВОЛЮЦІЯ ТА ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЯ ПРАВ ВЛАСНОСТІ В КОНТЕКСТІ ДОСЛІДЖЕНЬ ІСТОРІЇ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЇ ДУМКИ

In the study of market relations, the concept of "property rights" should be considered as an important precondition for economic development. The most controversial issue in the institutional research development is to determine the patterns of interaction between the economic and legal systems, particularly, in the context of the formation and development of the property rights as a set of economic, social, legal relations between members of society that give people usefulness or pleasure. The theoretical framework for the formation of the institutional concept of the property rights is based on the socio-legal direction of American institutionalism and the Anglo-Saxon legal system. For the first time, American institutionalism paid attention to the economic aspects of the ownership transference of goods and services (market transactions) and the Anglo-Saxon law has studied the impact of the various forms of ownership on economic relations, in particular, in the structure of formation of transaction costs associated with market operations. The theory of transaction costs has become the basis for the development of three areas of "neo-institutional" research on property rights: the first is the economics of law (theory of property rights), the second is the institutional theory of the state and the third is new economic history. The understanding of property rights is based on the following that property rights can be established to any rare tangible and intangible objects, even personal human rights. Moreover, the basis of the economic activity is the exchange of the property rights, market operations transactions. And the use of market mechanism for the exchanging of goods is followed by transaction costs. The market transactions costs determine the composition, structure and dynamics of changes in social institutions of society. And property rights have a significant impact on the behavior of property relations participants and encourage people to adhere to certain forms of behavior and cause them to avert other forms of activity. Compliance and violation of the rules established by the property rights is an act of a rational economic choice.

ВЛИЯНИЕ «ЛЕВЫХ» И «ПРАВЫХ» ИДЕЙ НА РАЗВИТИЕ ОБЩЕСТВЕННЫХ ОТНОШЕНИЙ

The formation of relations in society between different social groups is greatly influenced by various ideas aimed at building a more just society. Social relations permeate the entire society from the very bottom to the top, and changes in these relations lead to changes in social institutions. Feudalism in its depths gave birth to capitalism, and capitalism in turn gave birth to communism and socialism. This is dialectics. Feudalism and capitalism co-existed as systems of social relations for quite a short time. Capitalism and socialism lasted even less, and this existence ended with the collapse of socialism, not as an ideology at all, but as a system at this historical stage of the world’s development. There is no point in talking about the loss of socialism. The ideas of socialism, taking into account the mistakes made earlier, will regain state power in the near future. The victory of liberal capitalism, which gave rise to bold expectations about the «end of history» led the world not to prosperity, but to a sharp aggravation of all existing contradictions and to the understanding that capitalism, like socialism before it, has exhausted all its development resources and can no longer offer anything new. Co-existing with socialism, capitalism has undergone significant changes and, forced to be influenced by «left-wing» ideas, has been strongly transformed in order to survive in the competitive struggle. In our country, «left-wing» ideas are subjected to unfair criticism and therefore their influence on the development of public relations is not studied. To avoid mistakes in the future development of the country, it is necessary to study the impact of these ideas, because they have an impact.

The Role of Community Characters in Sending Cases of Sexual Violence against Children

The changing times that are getting faster with the presence of communication technology have shifted many positive trasidies in society, turning into a new tradition that is more individualistic. One of them is the change in social institutions, community leaders, in Acehnese society, which can be said to be one of the local wisdoms. Social institutions consisting of village officials have the duty to protect, guard, supervise and resolve all problems that occur in the community. They are like a gampong fence that continues to protect society from all forms of crime and a-moral action, one of which is sexual violence against children and women. The rise in cases of sexual violence must be addressed, one of which is by optimizing the role of community leaders.

Social institution changes and their ecological impacts in Kazakhstan over the past hundred years

Over the past 100 years, the social system, agricultural production modes, lifestyles, and ecological conditions in Kazakhstan have changed dramatically. Understanding how social institution changes altered the land use patterns and the ecosystem processes in Kazakhstan can provide important knowledge for the sustainable ecological management of semi-arid regions. By summarizing the documented research on major social institution reforms, this study investigated land use changes in response to social system changes and analyzed the impacts of agricultural and animal husbandry development on ecological degradation. Three important characteristics of social-ecological system changes were found in this study. First, population migration, land policy changes, and social system reform were the major driving factors of ecological degradation, especially within the periods of Russian emigration in the early 20th century, the Virgin Lands Campaign, and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Second, changes in land use patterns caused by changes in social systems have led to a series of ecological degradation, especially the policy of collective management and regional intensive grazing. Land experiencing reclamation-abandonment-reclamation turbulence developed in a vicious cycle and eventually became a high-risk area of ecological degradation. Third, Kazakhstan experienced a long-term cultivated land expansion, occupying high-quality grassland and pastoral areas, which moved animal husbandry production to desert vegetation areas. The agro-pastoral transition zone in Kazakhstan was the mostly affected area by land use changes due to the social institutional changes and special attention is urgently needed to reduce land degradation and desertification.

Transformation in Social Structures of the Post-сoronavirus World

The article is a brief excursion into the history of large-scale epidemics known to mankind. Comparison of similar situations in different historical eras. The results of the comparative analysis make it possible to assert that development of illness is possible only in a highly globalized world. The second general conclusion is a decrease of productive forces and a certain state of human capital. These factors negatively affect the economy, increasing the value of individual workers and their ability to tradition. However, when projecting this pattern into the current situation, a significant difference is noticeable. In addition, the factor of decline in production is due to the high degree of mechanization of labor. As a result, it is possible to predict the reverse previous epidemic impact — the value of an individual worker will decrease directly proportionally in the economy. The third overall impact is due to a change in social institutions — the most effective solutions come usual. Thus, the transformation is economically viable, and the economic system is being transformed during the Justinian plague. Thus, it can be expected that in the near future a high level of unemployment and the alienation of a number of value factors will be ensured.
