Class and Conjuncture in Television, Cinema and Literature
L. :
Routledge, 2026.
This book presents a critical examination of how cultural forms, ranging from cinema and TV to literature, address class within the overarching context of a crisis conjuncture, specifically the period following the 2008 financial crash. It demonstrates how culture serves as a crucial site for capturing the contemporary "structure of feeling", publicly mediating the period's pervasive social anxieties. Through its dissection of both major and minor works across genres (such as satire, horror and autofiction) produced in the centres and peripheries of global capitalism, the book highlights how class experiences like privilege, precarity and ressentiment are narrativized.

Norms are fundamental to social life, but basic questions about how they are affected by social context remain. Specifically, how do normative constraints depend on the presence and status of observers, and how do such relational contingencies vary across cultures? Using data from more than 25,000 individuals across 90 societies, we test several hypotheses linking ...

Статья посвящена анализу образовательной деятельности университетских музеев России. Актуальность исследования обусловлена противоречием между высоким
образовательным потенциалом музеев и фрагментарностью его реализации, а также отсутствием в литературе системного анализа условий интеграции музеев в учебный процесс высшей школы. Несмотря на признание музеев важными центрами сохранения наследия и популяризации науки, вопрос об их реальной включённости в повседневную образовательную жизнь

При всей кажущейся ясности и недвусмысленности понятия «свобода» дать ему исчерпывающую научную дефиницию весьма затруднительно. У каждой отрасли знания свой подход к трактовке этого многоаспектного понятия. В ходе обсуждения, материалы которого вошли в настоящий сборник, свобода рассматривается с позиций философии, социологии, юриспруденции, психологии, нейрофизиологии и т.д.
Участники дискуссии рассуждают о границах свободы воли и субъектности человека, о соотношении свободы и ...

Sociological texts on zombies are mostly interested in human problems (capitalism, pop culture, etc), not in zombies as such. Zombies as a specific form of (non) life remain a blindspot for sociologists. Scientists of other disciplines, like epidemiology and neurosciences, have already declared their ways for studying zombies. Our task is to outline the concepts ...

В статье рассматривается актуальная проблема появления «библиографических конфабуляций» (галлюцинаций) в списках литературы, созданных с помощью генеративного искусственного интеллекта. Автор анализирует механизмы возникновения таких ошибок, объясняя их способностью больших языковых моделей генерировать статистически правдоподобный, но фактически недостоверный текст, не обращаясь к реальным базам данных. Предложена системная типология библиографических искажений: полная фабрикация, «химеры» (гибридные ссылки из фрагментов ...
