Lecture:

Interethnic relations

Interethnic relations are called relations between different states, as well as between different nations one state.

Let's consider two tendencies of interethnic relations of the modern world. First - integration– close mutually beneficial interethnic contacts, cooperation in politics, economy, culture. In modern global world rapidly growing productive forces are crowded within the framework of one nation or one state. There is a process of broad cooperation between countries. A striking example of the economic integration of nations and states is European Union, uniting about 30 states of Europe. An example of political integration is a number of international organizations led by the UN. And an example of cultural integration is the celebration of Christmas, Halloween, etc. The integration of states contributes to the erasure of national borders and the unity of mankind. An important principle of building interethnic relations is tolerance, mutual respect of nations.

The second trend of interethnic relations is differentiation, this is the reverse integration process, when nations strive for independence, separation and confrontation. characteristic feature differentiation is, for example, the strengthening of protectionist measures in international trade, nationalistic and extremist views. The desire of nations to differentiate has led to the emergence of such socially dangerous phenomena as:

    nationalism and its extreme form of chauvinism, expressed in hatred of other nations;

    segregation- forced separation of one nation from another on any basis, for example, racial discrimination;

    genocide- the physical destruction of the nation - especially serious crime against humanity;

    separatism, which consists in the desire of the nation to separate from the state and create its own independent state entity;

    ethnic cleansing - the policy of forcible expulsion of persons of a different ethnic group from the territory of the country.

The third trend of interethnic relations is globalization(more).

Thus, there are two main forms of interethnic relations: peaceful cooperation (stable relations) and ethnic conflict (unstable relations). We are talking about peaceful cooperation when nations interact and benefit each other. The main forms of peaceful cooperation are ethnic mixing through interethnic marriages and ethnic absorption - natural or forced assimilation, in which one nation completely loses its language, culture and national identity. An ethnic conflict arises as a result of a clash of interests of different nations and often develops into an armed struggle.

Causes of ethnic conflicts and ways to resolve them


Causes of ethnic conflicts can be:

    territorial claims;

    struggle for political power or political independence;

    disparity in possession material resources and blessings;

    infringement of the rights, values, interests of the ethnic group;

    ethnocentrism - the excellent views of the ethnic group towards their own culture and the rejection of another culture;

    deterioration of the ecological situation on the territory of one ethnic group due to the actions of another and others.

Ethnic conflicts lead to severe consequences people are dying, cultural values ​​are being destroyed. The settlement of ethnic conflicts, on the one hand, depends on the activities of international organizations (primarily the UN) and commissions, which must take into account the interests of each of the conflicting parties. On the other hand, it depends on the internal attitudes of the person himself. It is very important that every person does not allow violence, adheres to humanistic views in resolving ethnic issues and supports tolerant interethnic relations.

Maintaining stable interethnic relations is the main goal of the national policy of any state. Its main areas are:

    ensuring the equality of all nations living in the state, for example, the laws of the Russian Federation guarantee the right of every citizen to determine their nationality;

    creating conditions for the preservation of ethnic culture, for example, teaching the native language in schools;

    organization of events that bring nations together and expand cultural ties, for example, holding international song and dance festivals;

    preventive measures aimed at promoting an intolerant attitude towards nationalism and chauvinism.

The basis of interethnic cooperation is the principles equality, mutual assistance and respect for the national dignity of peoples, their interests and traditions. non-compliance these principles lead to ethnic conflicts which is a difficult task to overcome. In the modern world, there are several ways to resolve it: negotiations, mutual concessions of the parties, mediation by a third party or the UN.

Interethnic relations ... This term in recent times quite often comes from the radio and television screens, and those who are interested in hot news can also meet it on the pages of modern periodicals or popular Internet resources. Sometimes in a good context, but more often, you will agree, nevertheless in a sad or disturbing one. Unfortunately…

In my article, I propose to consider this term in more detail, define it, look into history and give some typical examples.

International relations. Concept definition

Interethnic relations are a set of individually experienced relations between people who either belong to different nationalities, or are representatives of different This concept studied by two general psychology and ethnopsychology.

How do these relationships arise?

Yes, as a matter of fact, they develop gradually, in the process of labor or also arise from family, life, friendship and any other informal communication.

Depending on the historical past of a particular country, the socio-political situation, economic, cultural and living conditions, the nature of such relationships can change and take on friendly, neutral or (at the very least) negative forms. In addition, it can be significantly influenced by personal interest in communication.

International relations. Their varieties and forms

Such relations can arise between representatives of different nationalities at the level of one state, and, of course, they can also develop between different states or nations.

Scientists managed to identify two main forms of interethnic relations:

    ethnic or national conflict;

    peaceful cooperation, which includes several subspecies at once:

Ethnic mix. It occurs when various groups, spontaneously mixing with each other, after a certain number of years begin to form one nation. As a rule, this happens through. If you delve into history, you can find out that it was in this way that Latin Americans once appeared, in whose traditions to this day the customs of Spaniards, Portuguese, African slaves, and local Aborigines are mixed.

Ethnic assimilation or absorption. It happens when one people is almost completely dissolved in another or even several at the same time. This can happen both in peacetime and in wartime. For example, without bloodshed and enslavement, the United States managed to form. But in ancient times, everything was much tougher, and as an example, we can cite the conflict between Assyria and Rome.

If the assimilation scenario is violent, then the larger and stronger nation forbids the second, for example, to use their own language or adhere to their own customs and traditions.

Ways to resolve conflicts

According to modern sociologists and political scientists, if relations between nations have reached an impasse and any attempts to get out of this situation, in the end, led to its even greater aggravation, there are several real ways to influence this conflict:

    Recognize the existence of transnational problems and solve them with the help of national policy methods.

    At the level of the nation, to realize the unacceptability of violence and the mastery of the culture of another people. Allow any nationality to exercise its freedoms and rights, respect its identity, language and customs, without showing any hostility or distrust.

    To normalize the ethno-political situation, use various levers of the economy.

    To create in those regions that are characterized by a mixed national composition, various kinds of cultural infrastructure. For example, national centers, schools with the opportunity to attend lessons in their native language, as well as give the opportunity to comply with all national traditions and customs.

    Organize special international commissions, councils or other structures that will deal with the peaceful resolution of all emerging national disputes.

The problem of interethnic relations arises, first of all, where people do not hear each other and do not even want to try to negotiate peacefully.

National relations find their expression in public actions, which largely depend on the individual motivation and behavior of the subjects of society.

National relations can be friendly and mutually respectful, or vice versa - hostile and conflict.

The concept of ethnic communities

Ethnic communities are associations of people based on a common historical past, which provokes identity in their worldview, in cultural and spiritual traditions.

The main feature of ethnic communities is their common historical region of residence.

Today, there are several thousand ethnic communities in the world, modern geography their distribution is very diverse.

ethnic conflicts and interethnic cooperation

International conflicts are a kind social conflicts that occur between members of different ethnic communities. In many scientific works, varieties of political, civil confrontation are indicated as the basis of interethnic conflicts.

Ethnic conflicts often exist in two forms: in the form of political competition and in the form of armed confrontations. Often the formation of the image of the enemy in the person of another nation occurs on a historical basis.

Interethnic cooperation is the interaction between representatives of different ethnic groups, which is reflected in economic, political and cultural social relations. The main principle of interethnic cooperation is mutual assistance, as well as respect for representatives of other peoples.



Culture of interethnic relations

The culture of interethnic relations is the level of relations between people and ethnic groups of different nationalities, which is based on moral principles, legal norms, as well as norms of mutual trust and respect.

A low level of culture of interethnic relations provokes the emergence of interethnic conflicts, a high level contributes to the development of interethnic cooperation.

National politics

National policy is component parts activities of any state that regulates interethnic relations of citizens in various types public interaction.

The essence of national policy directly depends on the general vectors public policy. At the heart of the national policy of legal democratic states is the principle of respect for people belonging to any ethnic communities. The task of national policy is to bring peoples closer together and establish the most favorable cooperation between their representatives.

Topic18. Family and life

The family is one of the most ancient forms of social associations. The history of the family as a social institution has more than 4 millennia.

Family as a social institution

The family is the first step of social interaction, it is because of this that the family is often called the unit of society. Like other social institutions (for example, the state), the family is subject to social laws society.

Based on the history of the development of the institution of the family, we see that no society could do without this social group.

Moreover, the family is this moment the only social institution which provides education and preparation for the socialization of the new generation.

Family and life, domestic relations

Domestic relations develop between family members in the process of daily life. Household relations are a system of non-production relations that are aimed at meeting primary needs (the need for housing, food and clothing).

Household relations in the family should be perceived in two aspects - depending on the time that each family member spends on living together, and also depending on how responsibilities are divided between spouses and children.

One of the most important moral foundations for a favorable family life is mutual assistance in housekeeping. In many families, children are actively involved in helping in everyday matters.

According to statistics, only women are involved in solving family household issues.

Consent in everyday relationships is no less important component of a happy family than mutual understanding between spouses and spiritual closeness. The vast majority of divorces are caused by disagreements between spouses in domestic relations.

family in modern society

The community has a huge impact on family life. In different historical times, the institution of the family experienced different qualitative transformations.

In modern society, the family is also undergoing some changes. They are mainly associated with such processes as urbanization and industrialization. Of no small importance in the life of a modern family is the onset of the information age: all the innovations that come to society are reflected in the traditions and nature of intra-family interaction.

Recently, we can also observe cardinal changes in the social roles of family members.

So, if at the beginning of the 20th century only men were in charge of the family budget, today, the family budget is predominantly under the control of women, which indicates a gradual transformation of the traditional patriarchal family model.

Topic19. Youth in modern society

Youth is a large socio-demographic group that unites individuals on the basis of socio-psychological, age, economic characteristics.

Youth in modern society

From a psychological point of view, youth is a period of formation of self-awareness, a stable system of values, as well as social status. Young people represent the most valuable and at the same time the most problematic part of society.

The value of the younger generation lies in the fact that, as a rule, its representatives have an increased sense of purpose, the ability to assimilate large amounts of information, originality and critical thinking.

However, these advantages give rise to certain problems of the implementation and existence of young people in society. So critical thinking is often directed not to the search for truth, but to the categorical rejection of already existing norms and dogmas that guide other members of society.

Today's youth are also characterized by new negative qualities that were absent from their predecessors, in particular, detachment from the outside world, unwillingness to work, increased negativism.
