THE CULTURAL MEANING OF THE CONCEPT OF "RODINA" ("HOMELAND") PREVALENT AMONG THE YOUNGER GENERATION OF THE KRASNOYARSK TERRITORY (CENTRAL SIBERIA, RUSSIA)
Abstract
This article examines the processes in which regional, national, and ethnic identities are formed in the area of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and the city of Krasnoyarsk. In this context, great emphasis is placed on migration processes and the particular form of ongoing cultural interaction between the host population and migrants. An association experiment method that allows us to reveal and analyze consciousness-related attitudes and images combining intellectual, practical, and sensual experiences that are reflected in the semantic meanings of word-reactions among the younger generation to a set word-stimulus has been used to carry out the study. The experimental subjects included first and fourth-year students from Siberian Federal University, from the different departments, students from KrasSMU (formerly KSMI) named after Professor V. F. Voyno-Yasenetsky, and young people who recently graduated and obtained high school and higher education diplomas (the respondents aged up to 25 years). An analysis of the experimental results has been carried out within the bounds of a comparative analysis with a similar experiment conducted 5 years ago. While this study was being carried out as was done five years ago, the word "Rodina" ("Homeland") was chosen as the basic language unit and word-incentive, a concept connected with the basic meanings, socialization, and identification of individuals with their place of birth and residence. The purpose of this study is thus to formulate fundamental conclusions, according to the results of the association experiment, on the nature of the construction of image of the Rodina in the consciousness of the modern younger generation, about the particularities of the way regional and ethnic identities are formed (whether the respondents see themselves as residents of Russia, Siberia, and Krasnoyarsk Krai), and the host populations specific attitudes towards representatives of other ethnoses and religions.
