The desire of the Protecting the Future conference organizers to move the discussion of anti-Semitism and other manifestations of xenophobia from theory to practical applications is quite understandable. It is easy to predict that most speeches and projects will be dedicated to two types of proposals: first, the improvement of mass consciousness or public opinion, and, second, changes in the legal sphere. However, a significant part of such proposals, as a rule, are not feasible due to the socio- political circumstances in our country, which stipulate the nature and focus of the media’s activities, education, the legal sphere, etc. In addition, it is difficult (and sometimes impossible) to find solutions to problems created by global processes within a single country. Given the limitations of approaches of a systemic nature, I will focus only on approaches to preventing and combating xenophobia that accommodate «fair wind» – i.e., those based on existing trends that can lead to positive results. In my presentation, I will specifically address two trends that are evident in Russia, but are also related to global processes.

This shows the significance of the migration issue in the country and its topicality in the public discourse. However, the explanatory models used to analyze the perception of immigrants in Western ...

In the last few decades xenophobic and extreme right-wing political movements have become increasingly strong electoral forces in many European countries. The Nordic countries have long been viewed as among the most tolerant countries in the world, with exemplary protection of minorities. Nevertheless, in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland, xenophobic parties also moved into first ...

Xenophobia and anti-immigrant attacks rose during the COVID-19 pandemic, yet this may not be solely due to the disease
threat. According to theories of frustration and scapegoating, situational obstructions and deprivation can motivate prejudice
against outgroups. Using a global natural quasi-experimental design, this study tests whether the restrictiveness of national lockdowns can explain higher individual-level perceptions of ...

In this study, we examine Russian millennials’ attitudes toward migrants—an estimated 10 million legal and four million illegal migrants, who work in construction, service, and retail industries. More specifically, we examine the influence of various factors such as perceived fear of migrant crime, economic, and cultural competition on explaining xenophobia measured by social distance and ...

In the article, the author uses the metaphor of the "pendulum" to explore the state antisemitism of the Stalinist period as a model of Soviet national policy, whose direction was subject to constant and radical changes by virtue of the unprecedented opportunities for subjectivism and political arbitrariness in public administration. The author tests his hypothesis ...

Реформы регионального управления и их влияние на этнополитические процессы в России ( 1999-2003 гг).
Pain E. A., Центр этнополитических и региональных исследований ЦЭПРИ 2003 С. 1–38
Первые административные реформы президента Путина (изменение принципов формирования Совета Федерации, создание семи федеральных округов и института полномочных представителей президента в них) не могли не оказать влияние на этнополитические процессы. В данной главе ставится задача проверки ряда гипотез о формах и мере этого влияния.
Предположительно можно выделить два типа влияния: косвенное и непосредственное. Первое может проявляться в ...

In this article we consider the trajectory of xenophobia in Russia since the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Using survey data from 1996, 2004, and 2012, we examine Russians' negative attitudes toward seven outgroups over time. We also statistically analyze the degree to which correlates of xenophobia have changed between 1996 and 2012. We find ...

Радикальные исторические перемены, переживаемые Россией на рубеже XX-XXIвеков, обусловили высокую актуальность проблем политического транзита и модернизации. При этом год от года растет интерес исследователей к наполнению теоретических схем модернизации, во многом заимствованных, конкретным содержанием, основанном на анализе специфики российских политических преобразований в различных сферах жизни. В этой связи представляется естественной и неизбежной постановка вопроса об особенностях ...

Многоэтничный город. Проблемы и перспективы управления культурным разнообразием в крупнейших городах
Вендина О. И., Pain E. A., М.: Сектор, 2018.
В предлагаемой читателю книге город рассматривается как объект и субъект национальной политики. Авторы меняют оптику исследования межэтнических отношений, перенося главный акцент с выявления степени их конфликтности на поиск сложившихся механизмов предупреж- дения конфликтов и взаимного приспособления. В первой части монографии обосновывается необходимость корректировки российской национальной политики с учетом новой парадигмы «управление культурным разнообразием». Во втором, ...

The stranger is strange, the xenos is xenikos. What is strange, however, is captured neither by the fear of the presence of an original corruption, a non-Greek at the presumed origin of Greek philosophy, which would threaten its privilege; nor by the presence of an êthos in general that allows for hospitality towards the xenos, ...

How to explain the continued presence of the imperial legacy in the political life of Russia, and its impact on Russian nation- alism? This has been a focus of my research for more than a decade (Pain 2001, 2004, 2008, 2012). The combination of Russian nationalism and imperial consciousness is conducive to the development of ...
