Authors: Gracia Sánchez Laura , Nolasco Hernández Alberto , Domingo Cebrián Virginia
Published: November 2024

Introducción: En este estudio vamos a mostrar las diferencias en los mundos emocionales en los que se desarrollan los niños y las niñas. Metodología: Se aplicaron los  cuestionarios PTMMS-24 y el ASI sobre una muestra de 297 individuos de ambos sexos con edades comprendidas entre los 11 y los 53 años. Resultados: Indican que la hipótesis del investigador que el sexismo hostil predomina significativamente sobre el sexismo benévolo entre hombres y mujeres se rechaza. La hipótesis que plantea que las mujeres son percibidas mejor significativamente en claridad emocional, ha sido confirmada. Discusión: Aunque el tema de la inteligencia emocional y el sexismo han sido ampliamente estudiados de manera independiente, queda mucho por investigar, su relación, como variables del comportamiento humano. Existe un campo indeterminado de exploración que invita a profundizar investigaciones que consoliden con base científica el componente emocional del sexismo.

Published: November 2024

The information about species composition and conformation characteristics of microfungi’s complexes in the soil and leaf litter of specially protected natural areas of Vietnam. The mycological examinations of the Bu Zia Map National Park were carried out for the first time. List of species that was found by dilution plate method from 60 samples includes 88 species of microscopic fungi belonging to 42 genera and 15 types of sterile forms. 13 species of them were not observed previously for Vietnam. Mucoromycota was represented by only two species that related to the order Mucorales. Basisiomycota was represented by only one species. The most of identified fungi belongs to Ascomycota, domitant part of them is anamorphic. The leading orders are Eurotiales (42 species) and Hypocreales (17 species). Among the anamorphic forms there is a lot of different species Aspergillus and Penicillium. In soil from dipterocarp forest were identified 36 species microscopic fungi from 19 genera and eight sterile forms were isolated. There are three species were included in the group of dominants: Aspergillus tubingensis, Penicillium ochrochloron, Trichoderma harzianum. On a forest with Lagerstroemia sp. (Lythraceae) was found 47 species from 24 genera and 4 sterile forms were isolated. In the palm tropical forest area with Arenga westerhoutii (Arecaceae) 44 species of micromycetes from 27 genera and 5 sterile forms were isolated. The number of typical (dominant and frequent) species is very large, especially for the complex of micromycetes of the soil. Purpureocillium lilacinum and Trichoderma harzianum were also present. Rare tropical fungi have been found, such as Heterocephalum taiense, Chaetomella circinoseta and C. raphigera – soil fungi that are usually isolated from tropical soils and plants. Endocalyx melanoxanthus that has a tropical distribution and is associated with palm trees was found in Vietnam for the first time. The micromycete Thielaviopsis radicicola which is a rather serious pathogen of palm was found in the soil in a forest area with a predominance of Lagerstroemia sp. Complexes of micromycetes of the studied forest areas are divided into groups according to the types of habitats studied and by the types of different substrates. The complexes of micromycetes that were found in the soil and on the litter of the Lagerstroemia forest are very different. The degree of study of the species composition for all habitats is not very high: from 56 to 78%. Further studies of this group are promising and may lead to the identification of new species.

The study concerned the abundance and species composition of cultivated microfungi from peat soils and hollows of flat-palsa bogs in the mountain landscapes of the sub-Polar Urals (the northern part of National Park Yugyd Va). The number of fungi in the studied peat soils varied from 0.4 to 242 thousand CFUs/g a.d.s. with maximum values in the upper layer of live mosses of Bog I – 242±66.2 thousand CFUs/g a.d.s.. In the bog hollows, the abundance of micromycetes had relatively low values, in hollow of Bog I – 28.6±7.1 thousand CFUs/g a.d.s., in hollow of Bog II – 32.9±25.5 thousand CFUs/g a.d.s. The taxonomic list of cultivated micromycetes included 61 species of fungi from 15 genera, two divisions and Mycelia sterilia. The Mucoromycota division was represented by 17 species from the genera Absidia, Actinomucor, Mucor, Mortierella, and Umbelopsis. The majority if cultivated fungi belonged to the division Ascomycota (43 species from 10 genera). The genus Penicillium dominates by species number (21 species). Reasoning from the frequency of occurrence, the structure of the complex of microfungi included rare and random species by 53%. The share of frequent and dominant fungi accounted for 34 and 13%, respectively. The dominating group consisted of Pseudogymnoascus pannorum and sterile mycelium. Frequent species were Mortierella alpina, Mucor hiemalis, Umbelopsis ramanniana, U. vinacea, Penicillium canescens, P. granulatum, P. lividum, P. simplicissimum, P. spinulosum, P. thomii, P. verrucosum, Talaromyces funiculosus. Most abundant in the layer of live mosses were Penicillium spinulosum (17%), P. thomii (18%), Talaromyces funiculosus (19%). In the seasonally thawed peat layers, the following species were highly abundant as Pseudogymnoascus pannorum (11%), Talaromyces funiculosus (14%), and sterile mycelium (16%). In the gley soil horizons, Pseudogymnoascus pannorum (78%) dominated by abundance. Only single colonies of sterile mycelium were found in frozen peat layers.

Micro-sized copper(II) oxide fibers were obtained by thermal decomposition of synthesized samples. It was shown that the use of the water–dimethyl sulfoxide system with a volume ratio 1:1 is optimal to achieve the formation of moderately aggregated particles with a distinct filamentous morphology.
DFT modeling of the oxygen electroreduction reaction on SiN3-doped carbon nanotubes
Authors: Kuzmin А. V.
Published: November 2024

The thermodynamic features and mechanism of the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction were studied using the revPBE0-D3(BJ)/Def2-TZVP method on the example of (6,6)-armchair carbon nanotube doped with a tricoordinated silicon atom and nitrogen atoms of pyridinic and graphitic nature. Irreversible oxidation of the silicon center as a result of the formation of stable oxygen-containing adsorbates was shown. It was found that Si-poisoned structures are capable of participating in the catalysis of the target reaction along two- and four-electron routes at high overpotentials. For a nanotube doped simultaneously with pyridinic and graphitic nitrogens the potential possibility of eliminating the silicon atom from the catalyst composition in the form of orthosilicic acid and the participation of a silicon-free nitrogen-doped framework in the oxygen electroreduction reaction, for which the stage of tautomerization of pyridin-2(1H)-one to pyridin-2-ol is the limiting step was shown.

Results of the study of terrestrial mollusc shells from the unconsolidated deposits of the Tetyukhinskaya Cave, Dalnegorsk, Primorsky Krai, Russia are presented. Brief species descriptions of the molluscs and their images complete the scarce information on the fossil Quaternary mollusc fauna of the region. With the help of malacological analysis, characteristic zones and malacological complexes were identified, which were used as indicators of the habitats near the cave entrance and in the adjacent territory. The data concerning the palaeoecological conditions of individual mollusc species confirm the development of broad-leaved and mixed forests, alongside open meadows with herbage vegetation in the region near the cave, towards the end of the Late Pleistocene and in the Holocene.
On the Origin of the Borrowing Верги in the Russian Northern-Western Dialects
Authors: Alekseeva Alina S.
Published: November 2024

Since the end of the 19th century a lexeme верги ‘incantations, charms, sorcery’ has been illustrated by a single example recorded by G. I. Kulikovsky in Yalguba (Karelia) in the dialectical and etymological dictionaries of the Russian language. Researchers tend to believe that the word goes back to finnish verha ‘sacrifice’, but an increase in the source base allows us to take a fresh look at the history of the word. Firstly, the lexeme верга is contained in the rite in the Olonetsky collection of charms (2nd quarter of a 17th century) and is currently the earliest fixation of the word in a singular form. Secondly, the dictionary of A. Neovius and the expedition records of 1935 in Koivisto and other places fix rituals containing the lexeme verha. In almost all the rituals with верга/verha the object must be thrown, which permits to suggest the Old Russian etymon (compare врещи, вьргоу ‘to throw’). The Finnish-speaking population from the contact territories could borrow the lexeme after the 2nd half of the 12th — the middle of the 13th century, because the vowel e in verha reflects the change of the reduced vowel.
National Sociological Heritage: Clarifying Evaluative Optics
Authors: Titarenko Larissa Grigor'evna
Published: November 2024

The article offers a brief analysis of the formation of sociology in Russia, different, sometimes contrasting estimates of Russian sociological heritage - from the recognizing its theoretical dependence on the Western liberal mainstream, to a complete denial of the need for relationships with the West, due to the uniqueness of the Russian civilization development. The periods of development of Russian sociology are singled out, as well as the circulation of innovative ideas and theories within each period, which had their own value. Sociologists in each period created original ideas, some of which can still serve the development of Russian sociology and be included in the world sociological heritage. Given the rethinking of the sociological heritage, the conclusion is made about the need to search for theoretical innovations with the goal of providing an adequate understanding of the main problems of today's Russia and prospects for its future development.

After the “End of History”: Progressive Alternatives to the Refeudalization and “Techno-Socialism”
Authors: Buzgalin Alexander Vladimirovich
Published: November 2024

The article continues the author's publications in the journal “Sociological Studies”, in which it was shown that contradictions of the neoliberal model of late capitalism pose a threat of the society involution towards conservative liberalism and refeudalization. The new text demonstrates a possibile implementing jf a progressive alternative to this trend and criticizes currently popular idea of "technosocialism". The author argues that the developing relations of transit to the "kingdom of freedom" in the space of late capitalism presupposes (1) the active regulation of social reproduction in order to effect a transition from the orientation of socio-economic development to profit and GDP growth to eco-socio-humanitarian priorities; (2) reforming property relations in the direction of socialization; (3) redistributing part of the parasitically used excess incomes of simulacra people (rentiers, financiers, show business persons, professional sports stars, etc.) for the purposes of social development and (4) the progress from manipulated democracy to dialectical unity of civil society and essential democracy. The subject of these changes – a kind of "progressor" – can become a union of creative workers of the public sector (“socialists”) with highly professional industrial proletariat realizing their strategic interests politically and ideologically.

Authors: Akhtamzyan N. A , Adams O. Y
Published: November 2024

The article addresses the preparation and context of Germany’s China Strategy. It aims to analyse a complicated process of reaching consensus in regard to China via intraparty debates in German coalition government. The authors examine China’s leadership and official reaction to the statements by German government, to the UN documents and visits and contacts of German officials with their counterparts in Taiwan and Hongkong. German government and Bundestag documents as well as those of the Federal Foreign Office were used as primary sources. The Chinese Communist Party documents, the Chinese leaders’ and foreign policy officials’ statements and speeches, the UN reports were also analysed. The authors highlight close and complicated interconnectedness between different economies in the world. All international actors are required to reach a compromise between national interests (including protection of sovereignty and security) and pragmatic goals of business development and the state of livelihoods. Consideration of counterpart’s interests, security issues and unacceptability of escalation are the conditions for achieving mutual understanding between two countries.

Authors: Korenev E. S
Published: November 2024

The article analyzes the main forms and methods of NATO’s public diplomacy in the Mediterranean-Black Sea region in the context of significant geopolitical processes taking place in this regional space. The aim of the study is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the policy of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in the field of public diplomacy in one of the most strategically important regions of the world. The main objectives include the consideration of the key areas of the NATO Public Diplomacy Division’s work, the analysis of the projects implemented by the Alliance in the sphere of public diplomacy, as well as determining their impact on the geopolitical processes in the Mediterranean-Black Sea region. In order to achieve the overall goal general scientific theoretical methods such as analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction and comparison are used. The conclusion is made that in recent decades the North Atlantic Alliance has been trying to strengthen its potential in the sphere of public diplomacy in the Mediterranean-Black Sea region by various methods because of its strategic importance. Moreover, in the near future NATO will increase its activity in this regional area. Special attention will be paid to developing relations with potential candidates for membership, such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, and Ukraine. Besides, in the medium term, NATO will continue to actively cooperate with Moldova and Serbia, which, despite their officially declared neutral status, are gradually moving closer to the Alliance. Most of the ongoing public diplomacy projects will be openly anti-Russian, because NATO initiatives will be aimed at ousting Russia from the humanitarian sphere of the Mediterranean-Black Sea region’s states.
The Permeability of the “Cordon Sanitaire” against Eurosceptics in the European Parliament
Authors: Domanov A. O
Published: November 2024

Based on voting protocols and debate minutes for the Carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) hearings in the European Parliament in 2022–2023 the cases where positions of MEPs from political groups “Identity and Democracy” and “European Conservatives and Reformists” coincided with those of parliamentarians from other parties (particularly opponents from “The Left” and “The Greens”) were analysed. These actions bypassing the “sanitary cordon” were explored together with the content of the CBAM, which made possible to identify the main motivations of MEPs’ voting. Such cases of solidary vote allowed to evaluate the strength of this barrier, the applicability of theories of two-dimensional nature of ideological space and the prospects of coordinated actions of selected parties after the European parliament elections 2024. These ad hoc coalitions were facilitated by the differences in attitudes to amendments. Among significant factors ensured Eurosceptic MEPs to express the same views were reluctanсe to transfer additional competences to the EU bodies and willingness to support the European industry. Supranationality and deindustrialisation are considered to be more imminent threats than climate change. The article explores a two-dimensional structure of ideological space of the given activity. Close relations between left-wing and right-wing parties could be explained by similarity of political views (i. e Euroscepticism in attributed not only to far-right politicians).
Brexit, Science and Higher Education: Legal Problems and Regulatory Dilemmas of Disintegration
Authors: Entin M. L , Galushko D. V
Published: November 2024

The purpose of the study is a dialectical consideration of the sphere of science and higher education as a factor influencing the development of integration interaction between integration entities and member states and preventing disintegration. The authors substantiate that over the years of EU membership, the United Kingdom has become a highly integrated state that has received numerous benefits in the field of science and higher education, for which Brexit can be considered a step back. The concluded agreements between London and Brussels, as well as the adopted British legislation, on the one hand, contributed to a decrease in the flow of students and representatives of the academic community to the UK, and on the other, became an obstacle to the UK’s participation in projects for organizing mobility and developing the potential of universities within the framework of EU educational and research programs, previously making up a significant portion of UK university funding. As a result, the British government did not give up attempts to restore a high degree of interaction with the EU in this area. Following Windsor Framework Agreement, the two parties agreed on UK’s participation in European programs on an equal basis with colleagues from EU member states and access to appropriate funding, which, however, only partially compensates for the negative consequences of ending membership in EU. The authors emphasize that Brexit confirms that international interaction in science and higher education is an important factor in strengthening integration construction, which is fully relevant for the development and strengthening of integration of states within the Eurasian Economic Union.
SOVREMENNAYa INNOVATsIONNAYa POLITIKA, ORIENTIROVANNAYa NA MISSII (primer Germanii)

New trends in global economic development, such as the processes of transnationalisation, economic and energy crises, gaps in foreign trade and logistics chains, challenges of modern technological development, intensify the competition of companies in world markets. The governments of the developed countries and large multinational corporations are actively engaged in radical transformation of the modern social and economic world development model on the basis of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Germany is at the forefront of this global agenda. According to the German government, the development and introduction of transformative innovations is one of the tools that brings the world closer to sustainable development model. Such innovations do not only lead to technical progress, but also solve important social problems. To force through rapid modernisation German government has chosen a time-tested method – mission-oriented innovation policy (MOIP). State becomes the leading actor of the national innovation system, setting the goals of technological development and mobilising economic resources required to achieve these goals. For the first time, the missions of innovation policy were formalised in government documents in 2018. In early 2023 the new German government updated the drafting and composition of the missions. This article discusses the theoretical foundations of the MOIP approach to the formation of government innovation policy, describes the missions of the innovation policy of Germany, approved in 2018 and 2023, and examines the practical results of the implementation of some missions in 2018‒2022 on the example of renewable energy technologies introduction, building up battery cell production in Germany, developing clean mobility, putting German indigenous artificial intelligence technologies into practical application, digital healthcare, creating sustainable circular economies.
Trends in the Evolution of the European City
Authors: Vodopianova E. V
Published: November 2024

The article examines the relevant trends in the development of a modern European city using socio-cultural methodology and the systematic approach. The study demonstrates that the evolution of the European urban space is now taking place holistically, affecting the unity of the social, natural and individual dimensions of urban life. The proposed system of trends in the evolution of the European city is considered in the article as an interdependent triad of creativity, smart development and inclusivity and at the same time an actual standard in the ongoing theoretical discussions about the “good city” and their practical applications. The foundation of the movement towards the optimal functioning of the European city rests on the creatively formulated goals of urbanisation. It is revealed that without creativity, neither movement towards sustainable urban development nor the productive evolution of inclusive urban strategies is possible. It is established that at this stage of the formation of the information society in Europe, it is the expansion of the inclusiveness of urban living spaces that is the most difficult problem to solve, both because of its complexity and the lack of a consensual theoretical foundation for its vision. It is demonstrated that theoretical research of this kind is largely positively correlated with the strategies recorded in official EU documents, as well as the participation of supranational structures in financing urbanisation programmes. In the second quarter of the XXI century in order to optimise this problematic urban scenario it will be necessary to adopt and then implement some absolutely non-trivial strategies, the content of which is not yet completely obvious.
Problems of Distance Learning in EU Countries During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Egorov A. I
Published: November 2024

The article is dedicated to the analysis of distance learning problems faced by EU Member states during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each EU member state was forced to transform its education policy, trying not only to reduce the risks of infection during professional contacts between teachers and students, but also to ensure the maintenance of the necessary quality of the educational process. The ambiguous influence of distance learning on the level of academic achievement of students in various EU countries is shown. The factors that hindered distance learning, including low incomes, housing and other material deprivation, belonging of students and their families to socially vulnerable segments of the population, the level of education of parents of schoolchildren and students are identified. The negative consequences of restrictive measures implemented by the EU countries in the education sector are revealed. Attention is focused on the risk of reducing the level of competitiveness of future graduates of educational institutions in the labor market due to their lack of knowledge. The reaction of the national authorities of the EU countries to the situation in the education sector, expressed in the adoption of a set of urgent measures, is investigated, including additional classes with lagging students, the preparation and active use of teaching materials, the provision of free SIM cards for an unlimited period of time to students from low-income families, providing computers and Internet access to children in need. It is stated that the education sector in the EU countries has demonstrated the necessary adaptability to the situation, having found support from the authorities.
On the inapplicability of general economic approaches to countries lagging behind in economic development
Authors: Knyazev Yuriy
Published: November 2024

For centuries, there has been a large gap in the level of economic development between the countries of the “golden billion” and the rest of the world, where, with the exception of certain states (China, the “Asian tigers”, some other countries), economic activity and living standards of the populations have been declining and deteriorating.
The purpose of the article is to prove the limited possibility of applying to lagging countries, including post-socialist states, and namely Russia, many theoretical approaches and practical guidelines that do not correspond to economic realities due to these nations’ unfavorable position in a globalizing world.
The reasons for the economic lagging of these countries, the influence of various factors on their development, and the conditions determining their stagnation are explored; some generally accepted recommendations for overcoming backwardness are critically assessed.
The unacceptability of certain postulates of mainstream economics for modern Russia is substantiated. The author sets out his vision of ways to overcome economic backwardness and scrutinizes the potential opportunities for accelerated growth of the Russian economy.
On investment strategy of the company adjusted to the state monetary policy
Authors: Lutsenko Sergey
Published: November 2024

The author examines the impact of the policy of the Bank of Russia, information asymmetry and business profitability on the investment agenda of Russian public companies. The tight monetary policy of the state is a restraining factor in the economy and is caused by a reduction in corporate investment. Faced with increased funding and external sanctions, Russian companies are forced to focus on internal sources of investment financing.
Using the analysis of panel data, the author substantiates that companies act in line with a precautionary motive, saving some money for subsequent financing of capital investments. Low information asymmetry makes debt financing a less expensive procedure.
The tangibility of assets is an indicator or hallmark when a company evaluates the cost of raising capital. The author chose a regression model with fixed effects to prove the impact of the increase in the cost of funding on the investment opportunities of the company. The unobservable individual effect may include various indicators, in particular, the quality of corporate governance, fluctuations in financial markets. Share price growth is directly related to the return on assets. An increase in the key interest rate worsens the company’s investment prospects. To save money the company can turn to debt financing in conditions of low information asymmetry. Tangible assets can serve as collateral, and debt is a fairly inexpensive financing option, even under financial constraints. To expand investment demand in the context of the main objectives of the National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation it is necessary to link the key interest rate of the Bank of Russia to profitability in key sectors of the economy.
Family in the Face of Social Challenges: Stress and Diadic Coping
Authors: Kuftyak Elena V.
Published: November 2024

The article analyzes contemporary studies of family, dyadic and financial stress, the influence of family stressors on marital relations and family functioning. The importance of analyzing stress with social consequences is emphasized, which made it possible to consider stress between partners, or spouses, as a dyadic phenomenon. A review of scientific publications has shown that financial stress has a more negative impact on family relationships, including family stability. The analysis of various studies of the influence of dyadic coping showed that the choice of adequate dyadic strategies plays an important role in maintaining long-term relationships between partners. The study of the impact of the structural characteristics of the family on the choice of dyadic strategies showed that the functionality of the family is an indicator of productive coping with difficulties.
The System-communicative Theory: Structure, Anomalies, Application
Authors: Antonovskiy Alexander Yu. , Pogozhina Natalya N.
Published: November 2024

The article provides a critical analysis of the main theoretical provisions of the system-communicative approach. As a starting point, the premise of communicative interaction is considered as a substrate of any public interactions, the foundation of social as such, which is conceptually justified in the works by N. Luhmann. It demonstrates both the methodological success of the use of system-communicative theory within a wide range of social fields of knowledge (sociology, epistemology, economics, political theory, psychology, art research, etc.), and a number of internal limitations (in legal theory, in the study of religious practices). Structure-forming developments of the conceptual apparatus of system-communicative theory are discussed, for example, the concepts of “media” and “form” proposed in the social psychology by F. Heider. The authors reconstruct the theoretical framework of the system analysis of communication on the basis of fundamental differences in act/experience, Ego/the Other and the comparison of the fields of their combinations and constellations. The empirical outcomes of the systemic view of communication are examined in detail, during which anomalies are identified — some gaps, or problem areas, or systemic inconsistencies in the course of communicative interaction within the framework of the proposed unified scheme of the ratio of combinations/constellations of distinctions. Special attention is paid to comparing and identifying the specifics of scientific and political communicative subsystems. Behind the first is approved a special type of system-communicative rationality, justifies the doubling of the binary true/false code in the application to scientific knowledge, proposes a variant for solving Gettiers paradox by system-communicative theory, and also notes the potential of system-communicative theory in ranking types of scientific knowledge, due to the evolutionary selection mechanism as part of the methodological basis of system-communicative theory. The political communication subsystem is provided by the authors for analysis in a system voltage with a scientific one, during which algorithms of rational re-entry and self-reproduction are revealed according to the means of binary oppositions and connections of actors (power, social movements, mass media, etc.).
