Global Economic Crisis and How it Influences the Processes of Forming Civic Identity
P. 423–432.
The paper is concerned with questions of civic values and civic identity as they are experienced by Russian people in the context of global economic crisis 2008-2010. Empirical findings from Russian Public Opinion Research Center, Levada-Center, Edelman Trust Barometer surveys are used to outline how tensions, distrust and civic irresponsibility expressed by respondents in the context of financial instability may amplify understandings of “citizenship” and “civic identity”. Several trends characterizing the impact of economic crisis on civic identity in Russian society are discussed: the transformation of the common sense of “we-ness” in case of individualism’s growth and increasing reduction of trust to economic and law institutions; the problem of new political values formation; the specifics of citizens’ emigration intentions; the “status level” of citizenship; the effect of mental inertia.

The article presents an analysis of ideas about citizenship among young social activists of St. Petersburg. The authors analyse this issue using the case of young leaders of socially oriented initiatives of St. Petersburg. The empirical base of the study was 19 in-depth interviews with the creators of social projects. The key meaning of civic participation by young activists is the production of public goods, which they articulate in the categories of “inclusion”, “safe social environment”, “creation of community”, “educational activities”. Young people try to set their own vector of understanding social problems and ways to solve them. The narratives of informants show that young people perceive their participation in the field of citizenship not only as a personal gain, but also as an opportunity to promote egalitarian and humanistic values. This is reflected in three key meanings of citizenship – “Creating opportunities for self-development”, “Creating a field for self-realization”, “Creating a significant contribution to social development”. Young people are actively developing their own projects, while paying attention to issues that usually escape the dominant social discourse. ...
