School Teachers’ Professional Identity in the Context ofthe Precariatization of Social and Labor Relations in Large Russian Cities

The paper is based on a survey of public school teachers in Russian large cities (Moscow, Rostov-on-Don and Kazan). In 2017 the survey was conducted to study the perception of social and economic situation by teachers, and the estimation of the labor precariatization degree. Based on the assessment of their professional identity according to the selected typological criteria (the occupational prestige, the place of professional identity in the general structure of identification, labor motivation, professional values, job satisfaction, career orientations), the prevalence of pseudo-positive identity with diffusion elements is revealed among teachers. Moscow educators, while they evaluate higher the quality of life and the prestige of their work than teachers from Rostov and Kazan, are characterized by a higher degree of dissatisfaction with the content and results of their professional activity. The polyethnicity of the city’s population is not a significant factor in the formation of the interviewed teachers’ identity. Corporate loyalty (rewarded by corporate paternalism), socially oriented motivation, socio-economic vulnerability (especially for province teachers) characterize the existing model of the professional identity in the teaching community. Heavy administrative burden for the teachers’ corps, the high social demands for the results of their work and the precariatization of teacher’s labor create risks for maintaining of the positive professional identity and reduce the reform potential of the school.

The typology of Polish lakes after a decade of its use: A critical review and verification

The abiotic typology of Polish lakes, compliant with the requirements of the EU Directive 2000/60/EC (Water Framework Directive), was developed in 2004 under the commission of the Ministry of the Environment. Based on the combination of the obligatory typological criteria from Annex II of the WFD and one additional factor, all Polish lakes larger than 0.5km2 were assigned to 13 abiotic types. This typology reflected the diversity of abiotic conditions and was assumed to be tested and validated for its ecological relevance on the basis of biological data obtained thereafter. The first ten years of its application proved the high usability of this typology for lake classification of ecological status on the one hand, while on the other hand, it allowed to gather experiences and to detect deficiencies and errors considered in the verification process. In 2015, the abiotic typology of Polish lakes was verified. Above all, verification involved an analysis of the justification of lake eco-regional division and refinement of water stratification criteria, as these two issues have been questioned in the current typology. Data on physicochemical properties, phytoplankton, macrophytes and benthic diatoms obtained from the state lake monitoring conducted in the years 2007–2013 were used to verify the ecological relevance of the typological criteria. Typological criteria used in the verified lake typological scheme were essentially the same as those used in 2004. However, the number of lake types has been reduced from the previous 13 to seven, mainly due to the withdrawal from the lake division based on eco-regions. Moreover, the more specific criteria for determining the water mixing type were established. The new lake typology is expected to be implemented in routine monitoring and water management in Poland in the forthcoming River Basin Management Plan 2021–2027.

Perspektywy badania współczesnej genologii radiowej

Despite the already widespread constatations on the subject of the blurring of genres in the new media [or “new new media”, as Paul Levinson has it], despite attempts to find a nomenclature able to cope with the transformations in media products [megagenre, hypergenre, hybrid genre, subgenre, minigenre], despite abandoning genre identification in favour of typological criteria or using ad hoc and temporary categories, such as folksonomy, it seems reasonable to suggest that the systematic genre identification of radio is still a fresh issue. Several causes can be enumerated. Firstly, the topic of radio genres is not a popular one among media experts, secondly, those attempts at classification that have appeared have not, unfortunately, been verified by broader academic discourse, and thirdly, contemporary radio is “dematerialising”; in the common understanding, the aural impressions reaching us in the form of waves processed by the aural apparatus ceases to be associated with a radio receiver and more with an app on an iPod, a webpage, a fragment heard on YouTube or a podcast. Naturally, a broader approach to genre becomes popular, in which not only the analysis of the contents of messages is significant but also the habits and experience of the actual users of media. Radio genres seen in the context of new media lose their traditional labels in favour of new ones, most usually typical of online ones. It is important, though, that the concept of the genre as a collection of genre-making forms is capacious enough to take into account the intermedia specifics of the creation of genres. This article describes the main problems of radio genre research taking into account the convergence and evolution of broadcaster-recipient relations.

Typology of Bukidnon State University Using the Commission of Higher Education Standards

This study examined the horizontal and vertical typology of Bukidnon State University in line with the paradigm shift of the private and public Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the Philippines to enhance the quality assurance system. This shift intends to rationalize distribution and operation of HEIs in the country. Data were taken from the last five years including 2014 enrolment, undergraduate and graduate degree program offering, thesis requirement, involvement in research and annual research cost expenditure. This is a descriptive study whereby the criteria set by the Commission on Higher Education’s Policy Standard to Enhance Quality Assurance in Philippine Higher Education through an Outcomes-based and Typology-based Quality Assurance (CHED Memorandum Order of 2012) on horizontal typology whether professional institution, college or university found that the horizontal typology of Bukidnon State University is university but with weaknesses in research funding, physical facilities such as laboratories, research linkages abroad, and invented technologies. In the three types of higher education institutions (HEIs) according th vertical classification of the autonomous HEI, deregulated HEI and regulated HEI, Bukidnon State University has yet to pass most of the criteria for the vertical typology and hence, it is still regulated by CHED.Keywords: rationalization, typology, graduate and undergraduate programs, professional programs, non-professional programs

TECHNICAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL MODEL OF CHALCOLITHIC CHOPPING TOOLS OF THE RUSSIAN-KARELIAN TYPE FROM KARELIA AND THE UPPER VOLGA REGION

The article addresses chopping tools (axes, adzes, and gouges) from the Chalcolithic peatbog sites at Sakhtysh, Karelia, associated with the Volosovo culture. This group was first separated on the basis of technological and typological criteria, and their connection with the Volosovo component of these culturally and temporally heterogeneous sites was later verified with a detailed spatial analysis. The main traits of the Volosovo tools match those of the Russian-Karelian type, found in Russian Karelia at Chalcolithic sites with Asbestos and Porous Ware. The analysis of preforms suggests that their production followed a certain technological and typological model. The basic type of tool had a trapezoid or triangular cross-section, which was formed at the knapping stage and could then be transformed into a half-oval. Knapping was done with the punch technique, also evidenced by axes with a tetrahedral cross-section, widespread in the Neolithic of northern, central, and eastern Europe. The Volosovo chopping tools at sites with asbestos ware in the Upper Volga region and Karelia, then, follow the same single technological tradition. Its distribution area cannot be delimited thus far, but it could extend beyond that of the axes with a tetrahedral cross-section.

К ПРОБЛЕМЕ МЕТАПАРАДИГМАЛЬНОЙ ТИПОЛОГИЗАЦИИ СОЦИОЛОГИЧЕСКОГО ЗНАНИЯ

The paper examines the problem of pluralism in modern paradigmatic conceptualizations of sociological knowledge. The notion of polyparadigmality, main typologies of paradigms, and attempts of their meta-theoretic generalizations are considered. In this context, most attention paid to the existential paradigm as one of the most relevant approaches to the understanding of current social changes. Based on theoretical and historical perspectives, author proposes a structured typology that includes classical, nonclassical and postnonclassical metaparadigms, each of which, in turn, involves certain paradigms. It is shown that the change of meta-paradigms primarily revealed the increase of sociological self-reflection and the adoption of dialectical logic of objectivism, subjectivism and their subsequent synthesis. There is questioning the very necessity of epistemological application of paradigm and meta-paradigm levels, which can be reduced in scale to theories and paradigms accordingly. Main directions of further meta-systematization of sociological knowledge from a perspective of "theoretical minimalism" is outlined. This perspective's methodological strategy described as rooted in the method of the history of sociology, suggesting strict fixation and comprehensive interrelation of constant, essential elements of paradigms. The problem of meta-systematization has also included the differentiation of explicit and implicit divisions of theory comparison, sociological and social criteria of paradigmatic typology, multidimensional model of theoretical dichotomies, and conceptualization of interdisciplinary connections of meta-paradigms (positivism, existentialism, postmodernism, functionalism, etc.).

КРИТЕРИИ ТИПОЛОГИЗАЦИИ КОНЦЕПТОВ В ЮРИДИЧЕСКОМ ДИСКУРСЕ

The public relations are based on a particular system of values which is brought to the society through different conceptual spheres articulated by its own specific semantic area of language. The author says that the semantic area of language and the semantic structure of legal discourse are the reflection of the conceptual sphere of law and can be considered as a criteria in the conceptual analyze of legal language. The problem is to choose a correct criteria for typology of concepts in the legal discourse as a special discourse. Taking into consideration that the legal discourse is a social regulator the cumulative component that depends on a correct lexical unit is very important. The cumulative component is an in-formative intensity of the word semantics that is very important for regulation of public relations. The con-ceptual sphere of the legal discourse is characterized by some specific features. The article says that in addi-tion to the common ontological criteria characterizing any discourse the criteria of semantic intensity can be a base of typology of concepts in the legal discourse. The criteria of semantic intensity, concept volume can be seen in direct (terminological) and in indirect (narrative) forms of expressive repre-sentation in any text.

Indian Diasporic Formations in Guyana: Reading <i>Coolie Woman: The Odyssey of Indenture</i>

This paper deals with Gaiutra Bahadur’s recently published non-fiction narrative, Coolie Woman: The Odyssey of Indenture (2013). As a sequel to the end of slavery in the 1830s, the system of indenture, though equally exploitative, served as the source of voluntary migrant labour to manage the plantation economies in far-flung British colonies. In reconstructing the traumatic experience of her great-grandmother as an indentured worker uprooted from her homeland in 1903, Bahadur has meticulously researched archival sources from which we can extrapolate the adaptive persistence of nearly 240,000 Indians who migrated to Guyana between 1838 and 1917 and became the vanguard of the Indian diaspora there.   We propose to discuss the key characteristics of diasporas as well as the typological criteria of existing diaspora models. For this paper we adopt the theoretical conceptualisation of Susan Koshy’s term “neo-diaspora” because it fits well with the Indian case in Guyana. The Indian relation to homeland and myths of return are much more affected by ambiguity and stress than the classical model of diaspora posits. We examine Bahadur’s empirical depiction and gendered articulations of the indentured Indian women, braving brutalities and, at the same time, recreating a cultural dynamic in the domestic sphere as well as shaping an incipient home in an alien regime. The paper will also probe the culturally reflexive data excavated by Bahadur to postulate that the Indian female immigrants, despite remaining fettered and embattled, contributed to family making and negotiated creolised change for cultural reproduction conducive to a distinct diasporic formation.

REPRESENTATIONS OF THE ORIENTATION REFERENCE UP TO THE PRESENT TIME IN UKRAINIAN, RUSSIAN AND ENGLISH LANGUAGE: COMPARATIVE POLYPARADIGM ANALYSIS

The article deals with allomorphic ans isomorphic features of the system of representationsof оrientational reference in Ukrainian, Russian and English.Contrastive multy-paradigmal approach introduced in this research allowed to additionallyemploying inclusion notional and associative analysis, which highlighted the way native speakersof the contrasted languages conceptualize representations of оrientational reference to the presentin their typical and specific features. Ассording to the typological criteria, the contrasted systemsof orientational reference representation are subdivided into: 1) systems with well developedparts-of-speech homonymy relations, polysemy, polyfunctionalism as a result of an insufficientdegree of flexion and suffixation development in word formation (the English language);2) systems with moderately developed parts-of-speech homonymy relations, polysemy,polyfunctionalism (Ukrainian and Russian).

I corpora diacronici delle lingue romanze

This paper presents a survey of the diachroniccorporaavailable online for the study of the Romance languages. In the first place the makeup of eachcorpusis described, indicating the number of texts and tokens included and the manner of classification of the documents following chronological, typological and diatopic criteria. After having examined the problems involved in lemmatization and morphosyntactic annotation, the paper will look at query options with a view to possible research into lexicon, morphology, syntax and semantics. A short conclusion will consist in the presentation of the MIDIAcorpus, published in June 2014, which represents the first tool devised for the study of Italian from a lengthy diachronic perspective (from the earliest texts to the mid-twentieth century).

Late Middle Palaeolithic assemblages with flake cleavers in the western Pyrenees: The Vasconian reconsidered

Abstract The analysis of several lithic assemblages with flake cleavers and bifaces from sites attributed to MIS 5 and 3 in the western Pyrenees provides the basis for a new chronological and typo-technological characterisation of the region's late Middle Palaeolithic record. Previously assigned to the Vasconian based strictly on typological criteria, a certain degree of variability evident between the analysed assemblages likely indicates different occupation types. However, broad typo-technological traits reflecting a common regional tradition can be identified and are discussed against the backdrop of the regional diversity and cultural geography of late Middle Palaeolithic industries dated to around 50 ka BP. This ‘regionalisation’ of lithic techno-complexes may also have important ramifications for the socio-economic organisation and demographic dynamics of late Middle Palaeolithic human groups.

Chronology of middle Holocene hunter–gatherers in the Cis-Baikal region of Siberia: Corrections based on examination of the freshwater reservoir effect

A dataset of 256 AMS radiocarbon dates on human skeletal remains from middle Holocene cemeteries in the Cis-Baikal region, Siberia, and associated carbon and nitrogen stable isotope values are analyzed for new insights about culture history and processes of culture change. First, based on the typological criteria all dated human burials are assigned to mortuary traditions and typochronological units–Late Mesolithic, Early Neolithic, Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age. Next, all dates are corrected for the Freshwater Reservoir Effect (FRE) according to the regression equations developed using paired radiocarbon dates on human and terrestrial faunal remains from the same graves and examined for chronological trends using a Bayesian approach. While the entire corrected culture historical sequence is younger by roughly 200–400 years relative to the previous model the shift of the specific period boundaries is not systematic due to the varying proportion of aquatic food in the diets of the relevant groups. Examination of the dataset subdivided into smaller spatio-temporal units provides additional insights. During the Early Neolithic, in the Angara and Southwest Baikal micro-regions there is a chronological trend toward increased reliance on aquatic food. During the Early Bronze Age in the Little Sea micro-region, there appears to be a trend toward increased reliance on the Baikal seal. This shift, however, can also be interpreted as increasing migration over time of new groups from the Upper Lena. The sample from the Early Neolithic Shamanka II cemetery in Southwest Baikal shows two non-abutting phases of use each displaying a trend toward greater consumption of aquatic foods. These findings provide new chronological framework for the study of other cultural changes affecting middle Holocene hunter–gatherers in the region. The results may also allow better correlation with other sequences, cultural and environmental, that are not affected by the FRE.

Religious Identity in a Christian Context: Types, Markers and Research Problems

The article describes the specifics of Religious Identity in a Christian Context. When analyzing such complex phenomenon as religious identity, it should be noted that it cannot be classified according to only one type of typology. Such classification may narrow an understanding of the subject matter. At least three types of religious identity shall be considered: a religious identity itself in its broadest sense, a confessional identity and an institutional identity. Each of these identities reveals different sides of religious consciousness, starting from a belief in the supernatural and ending with a particular type of world-view which implies everyday religious practices and inclusion in the church community. All these types have their own identification markers and a researcher can choose them in accordance with a particular research context. Both opposing approaches- to consider the respondents as orthodox Christians according to their self-identification or to study everyday religious practices of the respondents in detail- are equally unsuitable. Furthermore, the number of typological criteria can be reduced by using the Western theological grounds for identifying the believers. Unlike the Eastern Orthodoxy, Catholic practices include the believer’s obligation to fulfill certain actions prescribed by the Commandments of the Church. It makes the connection between the religious beliefs of Catholics and practicing of such beliefs in everyday life obvious. If catholic criteria are used for identifying Orthodox Christians, it will help to reveal such identity more precisely and make the connection between a particular world-view and its everyday practice more clear.

Typology of Rural Territories of the Russian Federation Subjects

The article is devoted to the methodological approaches of the complex typology of the Russian Federation rural areas for the purposes of regional governance. The proposed method takes into account the differences in rural areas of the region in terms of socio-economic development, the economic potential and limitations of its use, based on the application of multivariate statistical analysis of integrated indicators. It summarizes the main problems of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation rural areas, one of the reasons, which, according to the authors, is an insufficient account of the special areas in the implementation of rural development policies at both the Federal and regional levels of government. Here it is suggested a hierarchical system of indicators which is used to develop a typology of regional rural areas, including aggregated typology criteria: the level of economic potential, the level of restrictions of the use of the economic potential, the level of social and economic development, as well as integrated and private figures. It is performed the approbation of the methodology with the use of data from rural municipal districts of the agricultural subject of the Russian Federation - the Republic of Buryatia. The obtained typology of rural areas allowed us to justify a differentiated approach to the management of socio-economic development of the regional rural areas. The results of the study can be recommended to the federal and regional authorities in improving the management of rural development based on a differentiated approach.

Structural Modeling for the Relationship of Organizational Wisdom and Strategic Intelligence

<p>Following the shift from strategic management, there have been signs of a modern approach with the mission of making the management of organizations wise. The present study was done with the purpose of modeling the present situation of the relationship of organizational wisdom and strategic intelligence in the Iranian University of Applied Science and Technology in 2014. This study, based on the typological criteria of research designs, is a compound, uninterrupted multiple phase, qualitative, quantitative start-over study. The research population was the all employees including 591 participants, and a sample size of 236 people was estimated and was selected through stratified random selection based on the size. The instrument for collecting data was a researcher-made questionnaire with 108 items based on 5-point Likert scale. The Cronbach's coefficient was calculated to be 0.93. And the questionnaire possessed content and construct validity. The collected data was analyzed using the statistical methods of stepwise regressions and path analysis of the structural equation based on the regression coefficients and fitting model indices. The findings showed that based on the researcher-made model using the frequent components in the study literature, organizational wisdom is in a significant relationship with strategic intelligence </p>

Dobór technik prowadzenia negocjacji

The objective of the paper is to characterise negation techniques and to suggest the solution to the problem of selecting them within the negotiations planning process, either from a theoretical perspective or for particular negotiations situations. Although the techniques considered are used in the negotiation conducting phase within the process of their planning it is recommended that they be initially considered as specific tools to be applied in particular negotiations. The second part of the paper interprets and classifies negotiation techniques, based on relevant assumptions, in particular typological criteria. The selection of such techniques in negotiations planning is characterised and a case study on investment negotiations between two construction companies is presented. After describing the parties to and the scope and objectives of those negotiations, one party’s strategy was discussed along with the arguments and negotiation techniques that enabled them to implement their strategy. The final section of the paper looks at the directions for future research on negotiation techniques.

Paleoliticul inferior din România: o reevaluare din perspectiva descoperirilor din situl Dealul Guran / Lower Palaeolithic in Romania: a revaluation from the perspective of the discoveries from Dealul Guran site

Southeastern Europe played an important role in understanding the dynamics of hominin colonizations during the Pleistocene. Consequently, in the recent years, much valuable work has been done in re-assessing the Lower Palaeolithic record in this part of Europe. We provide a brief synthesis of the discoveries currently assigned to the Lower Palaeolithic in Romania and we conclude that many of them were interpreted as Lower Palaeolithic solely according to typological criteria, whereas some pieces have natural origin. We then present the site of Dealul Guran, which we argue is the first reliable Lower Palaeolithic occupation on today''s Romania territory, dating from MIS 11.

Характеристика туристского потенциала территорий г. Пушкино Московской области

In modern conditions tourism is seen as an important factor of socio-economic development of the administrative-territorial units. In this case, each region has an opportunity to disclose its tourist potential and on this basis to identify conditions that determine the possibilities of a better use of tourist potential. Since the foundation of the tourist potential of the region are the objects of tourism, defining the extent of its appeal to the target audience, special attention should be paid to the formation of a certified database, reflecting their quantitative and qualitative composition.
 The article describes the approaches to the systematization of tourist objects of an administrative and territorial unit according to the types of tourist space: natural, cultural, historical, anthropological, recreation, event, service, mythological, scientific, as well as the different subtypes and groups to display. The results of the study of tourist objects are made by this technique for the city of Pushkino, Moscow region. The features are highlighted, which are contributing to the formation of the overall perception for tourists of the attractiveness of the city and reflect the results of the structural analysis of the quantitative composition of the tourist sites of the city on the typological classification criteria and territorial location. Identified are possible characteristics of Pushkino´s administrative territory, which has sufficient capacity to promote the tourist market by actively developing suburbs in several types of tourism and attract the interest of different target audiences. Identified are types of tourism development and positioning in terms of territorial competition to which the city should pay particular attention. Formulated are the basic conditions for their successful development, contributing to the creation of tourist image of Pushkino, which is set apart from other administrative units of the Moscow region.

Exploring authority migration in multilevel architectures: A historical-institutionalist framework

This article develops a framework for analyzing the dynamics of multilevel politics inspired by historical institutionalism. It suggests that this approach has much potential to re-focus an increasingly diversified scholarly landscape, comprising fields like European integration, comparative federalism and regionalization, by promoting a more nuanced understanding of the varieties of institutional dynamics in multilevel architectures. The article seeks to make a threefold contribution. First, it conceptualizes multilevel architectures as an institutional outcome of political restructuring which are subject to different patterns of authority migration over time. Second, it proposes typological criteria to systematically compare such patterns of institutional change by distinguishing their direction, pace and depth. Third, it speculates on the mechanisms that can explain divergent patterns of authority migration. Overall, it is argued that the historical ordering of institutional linkages between territorial authorities leads to differently composed multilevel architectures, which in turn shape the patterns and pathways of authority migration at later points in time. Case studies from North America and Europe illustrate the value of this analytical framework for the comparative investigation of continuity and change in and of multilevel systems.
