The constructivist paradigm, which views ethnicity primarily as a result of discursive practices and mental classifications, currently dominates the sociology of ethnicity. However, this logocentric approach often neglects the bodily and affective dimensions of ethnic experience. This article aims to bridge this gap by adopting the perspective of embodied cognition and 4E cognitive science. The theoretical framework of the study relies on a synthesis of cognitive sociology and phenomenology. The empirical basis includes qualitative data (in-depth interviews) collected among members of the Koryo-saram / Korean ethnic category in Uzbekistan. The analysis focuses on the sensorimotor and perceptual mechanisms involved in recognizing "one’s own" and "others".
The study reveals that ethnic categorization often occurs at a pre-reflective level. Three key dimensions of embodied ethnicity are identified: 1) the "ethnic radar" phenomenon – an intuitive, visceral recognition of group members prior to verbal interaction; 2) gastronomic practices, where taste and bodily reactions to food serve as community boundary markers; 3) linguistic habitus, where the perception of audio prove more significant than semantic knowledge of the language.
The author concludes that ethnicity should be conceptualized not merely as a category of consciousness, but as a bodily skill and a form of perceptual learning. Applying the optics of embodied cognition allows for rethinking ethnicity as "embodied history" rooted in the subject's sensorimotor experience, opening new perspectives for microsociological analysis.

Polarization of opinions in the group: a modeling algorithm considering the dynamics of social bonds
Chebotarev V., Andreyuk D., Elizarova Anastasiya et al., Procedia Computer Science 2022 Vol. 213 No. C P. 596–601
The dynamics of opinion in a group are of interest for a number of practical purposes. In particular, consensus helps and polarization of opinions hinders cohesive teamwork. Existing approaches for modeling opinion dynamics mostly do not take into account the dynamism of social relations in a group. This paper proposes an algorithm and a program ...

Social reality is undergoing rapid transformations, giving rise to new challenges for both social theory and practice. One of these much-discussed challenges is the so-called replicability crisis, a notion that describes the failure of the social sciences and humanities to verify established research findings with new empirical investigations. In the related debates, it is argued ...

В статье предлагается теоретическая рамка анализа научной элиты, исходящая из понимания производства знания как динамической структуры, формируемой внутренними противоречиями. Научная элита рассматривается не как совокупность выдающихся исследователей, а как структурный эффект производства знания — позиция в пространстве науки, концентрирующая максимальный объем научного капитала и задающая смысловой горизонт для всех агентов. Пространство науки трактуется как многомерное ...

Background:
Numerous studies have shown that indigenous populations experience poorer health outcomes compared to people with other backgrounds. However, the interpretation of these disparities remains challenging due to differences in living conditions and social environments, as well as by potential measurement-related biases. Little is known about whether the underlying mechanisms of mental health outcomes differ between ...
