    Abstract

    The aim of this study is to diagnose the transformation of the structure of the public space of the Northern Avenue of Yerevan. The theoretical basis of this research is A. Lefebvre's theory of space production. The spatial triad (representations of space, representative space and spatial practice) by A. Lefebvre was used to identify the codes of social transformation of the public space of the Northern Avenue. The study was carried out using a tool developed within the framework of the methodology of narrative semiotics, which made it possible to identify the structural elements of the Northern Avenue, reflected in public experience. Methods used include observation, content analysis and traditional analysis of archival / administrative records and in-depth interviews with key informants. Diagnostics of the structure of the public space of Northern Avenue demonstrates the peculiarities of the formation of public space and the ideological transformations of the urban space of post-Soviet Yerevan.

    Tsakhkadzor: The Space оf “Other Spaces”

    Sona Saghatelyan
    View PDF
    Abstract

    The relevance and application of Foucault's concept of "heterotopy" within the framework of the sociological understanding of modern urban space is substantiated. Based on the results of applied sociological research, an attempt was made to consider the space of the resort town and the urban municipal community of Tsaghkadzor as a heterotopy or space of other spaces. This approach allows us to identify the peculiarities of the combination of incongruous elements and, consequently, life contexts in a single space, which violate the seeming continuity and order of the ordinary everyday space.

    Abstract

    The article describes a study conducted in Yerevan (Armenia) of pubs as a specific urban space formed in the post-Soviet period. The aim of the study was to identify the codes of the post-Soviet transformation. Narrative interviews with pub founders were analyzed using Greimas's narrative semiotic analysis combined with Lefebvre's theory of space production. The results of the study showed that ideological transformations such as the movement from socialism to capitalism and from conservatism to liberalism were reflected in the way the owners conceived and designed the pub space.

    Public Awareness and Participation in Local Selfgovernance in Armenia Comparative Analysis for 2015 and 2019

    Abstract

    Raising public awareness and active participation in local self-government is a key component of governance instruments, public organizations and social initiatives in Armenia aimed at achieving “good governance” and strengthening democracy. However, there is no interest in the local self-government system in the Armenian society. This study analyzes the degree of public awareness of LSG and its participation in it in a comparative perspective for 2015 and 2019. In particular, the article is aimed at identifying the structure of the Armenian society using two main dimensions: public awareness of LSG and participation in LSG. For the existing variables, public participation in LSG was impossible to measure, while the result of measuring public awareness of LSG was sufficient. One separate variable was chosen as an indicator of participation in LSG. An index of public awareness about LSG was created. The cluster analysis revealed three clusters that make up society in 2015 and four clusters for 2019. The analysis showed that the overwhelming majority of the population has a low level of knowledge about LSG and public participation both in 2015 and 2019. In 2015, only 2.4% of the population had a high level of participation and awareness of LSG, which dropped to 1.8% in 2019.

    The Techniques of Upbringing Symbolism and Their Application in Public Communication

    Anna Aleksanyan
    View PDF
    Abstract

    From a communicative point of view, modern education is a social challenge due to social interaction based on communication influences that go beyond the modern education system. In the context of changes taking place in various modern social processes that affect the formation and development of a personality, the study, identification and application of the new potential of upbringing is of particular importance. The article presents the features of education in the formal and informal educational spheres. The article discusses the methodological basis for studying the upbringing process and considers the problem that the upbringing process takes place not only in the target education system, but also spontaneously, and can be controlled voluntarily and with unpredictable consequences. Based on this, the need to study the technique of visualization of education is revealed, and the question of observing various applications of the visualization of education, especially in the field of public communication, is raised.

    Abstract

    The article is devoted to the study of family social capital. On the basis of a theoretical model, based on the conceptual developments of J. Coleman and P. Bourdieu, an analysis of empirical data obtained in the course of a sociological study conducted in the Vologda Oblast was carried out. It was found that most of the families have the resources to form their social capital and invest in it. However, it is distributed extremely unevenly. A narrow radius of trust does not promote the growth of social capital. Its deficiency can further restrict its transmission to the next generations.
