Abstract This article focuses on European migrants living in Morocco and now near retirement or retired. Using a lifecourse approach we are interested in whether their timing of migration to Morocco made a difference in terms of their motivations to settle there and subsequently with the social relationships at the destination. To this end, we conducted 36 biographical interviews with Swiss, Dutch and Belgian Flemish migrants aged 50 and older. Findings show the relevance of a lifecourse perspective for international migration studies. Early adulthood migrants to Morocco had no strong obligations in their home country and were ready to explore new affective or professional experiences in a new country. They had the time to discover and find a place in Moroccan society and to develop long-lasting social relationships with kin and non-kin. Middle-adulthood migrants moved with the intention of rapidly accessing a higher standard of living thanks to the tourism economy, with hedonistic perspectives in a setting with a better climate. Their social life is limited to interaction with business clients and a few like-minded migrants from Europe, and their communication with personnel is a daily challenge. Most late-in-life migrants experienced disruptive life events before migrating, and expected to find in Morocco a second chance to build a better life. They generally move in select circles of European expatriates.

Spirituality is the foundation of human life in the world's life activity. One of the events that happen in life is the social relationships between people. Human development begins from infants, toddlers, children, teenagers, adults to elderly. Adolescence is a transitional phase that is between phases of a child - the child towards the adult phase. Each phase of human development is influenced by several factors, one of which is a spiritual family and environmental factors. The 21st century provides the potential for a shift in adolescent emotional and social values in the negative direction, such as promiscuity conducted by adolescents. Data retrieved via PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar using keywords: spiritual, spiritual attitudes of parents, social behavior and sexual. Results from the eight articles obtained, four themes were identified, namely spiritual in social relationships, spiritual behavior and mental health of adolescents, sexual behavior based on culture and finally spiritual control in sexual behavior and education. The nature of the social values contained in the spiritual can provide an impact on the social life of adolescents. The role of the level of knowledge and application of spiritual values by parents and the environment of adolescents living is able to have an impact on adolescent social behavior. Adolescent social behavior in which there is behavior to meet biological needs, namely sexual behavior. Teenagers, whose life experiences are not many, then risk making the wrong decision to meet the needs in their lives, including social relationships. Increased understanding of spiritual values will be able to control the behavior carried out by adolescents to meet their social needs. Keywords: spiritual behavior, adolescents, adolescent sexual behavior

The article attempts to analyze the concept of gender, study philosophical preconditions of its emergence and trace the main postmodern aspects of the gender category. It proves that gender research in the postmodern era is not identical to the theories of feminism. It deals with social life of both sexes, their behavior, roles, characteristics, common and different between them, the social relationships of the sexes, considering the world from the standpoint of both socio-gender groups. The article shows that an urgent need for more purposeful development of independent women's research in the developing countries. Such research should holistically reflect and study the lives of women on the basis of the so-called women's rather than universalized man experience. The main idea of this scientific research was to emphasize that the world can be explored not only from a man perspective, but also from the standpoint of woman experience. The level of scientific study of the gender conceptual sphere is clarified, in particular, the gender concept is a multidimensional complex represented in the language, which has a certain ethnocultural specificity. The concept has an unstable structure, which is reflected in the model of the concept developed by us, in which we highlight the root and applications of the concept, the possible movement of features in the relevant semantic directions from and to the root. The unstable (mobile) structure of the concept is also characteristic of its root: during historical development, the root may change, but the semantic meaning is not lost, but only replaced by synonyms or verbal innovations relevant to today.

This chapter focuses on the role that metaphors play in the social relationships of people who use CMC. We analyze the metaphors used by contributors to three different electronic fora when they refer to the process of interaction. One of our main objectives is to show that the study of metaphors allows us to understand how CMC users reach agreement as to the nature of the social space that they inhabit and what behavior is considered to be appropriate or inappropriate in such a space. This chapter will show that metaphors facilitate the construction of social life and allow CMC users to propose norms of behaviour; they also facilitate the process of identification, generate confidence in a group, and orient users to the cultural contexts in which social action takes place.

Chapter 14 explains the factors that prevented popular response against the corruption and economic instability brought on by transitional reforms. It points out that neoliberal atomization of social experience, coupled with economic instability, made social and political activism too costly for those who lived on the knife’s edge. The chapter also shows the importance of growing religious, ethnic, and nationalist movements as forging identity groups that were resistant to internal disputes. It further explores the role of mass out-migration in giving those who were dissatisfied with the social or economic conditions in their home country a route for seeking a better life elsewhere rather than engaging in subversive political movements. The speed and severity of the shift, as well as optimistic beliefs about market capitalism, had substantial effects on individuals’ psychosocial understanding of political and social life that prevented them from engaging in alternate political movements.

Rights And Interests

The article looks into current state of legal protection of family, the rights and interests of minors within provisions of the PenalCode Special Part. It is noted that after the Penal Code 2001 Special Part took effect the legislator placed criminal offences against fa -mily, the rights and interests of minors in different Penal Code sections with different generic objects, same as the Penal Code 1960.Such an approach is defined as inappropriate as it doesn’t ensure required level of legal protection of family and minors, as social relationshipsin terms of family relations are defacto at stake including relationships that ensure the rights and interests of minors. The artic -le draws attention to the fact that the Ukrainian legislator recently has only improved some legal provisions that criminalise infringementof family and minors, the legislator however has never systematised criminal offences against family and minors within the PenalCode Special Part based on uniformity (similarity) of social relationships. The article quotes substantiated proposals repeatedly madeby scientists in criminal law in which they say that criminal offences against family and minors have still not been systematised in theprovisions of the Penal Code Special Part. The article gives arguments that family relations create an independent social life area inwhich legal relations are established (relations within family and raising minors) and represent an independent kind of relations withown structure and specificities. The article provides evidence that family, minors (children), family relations represent a single bloc ofsocial relationships, the social relationships being united, interconnected and mutually reinforcing each other. In terms of axiologicalapproach family relations as social value have particular importance for the state, society and person providing that the relations arebased on love, care, understanding, loyalty, respect, support, sincerity, trust, harmony, responsibility, etc. The author defends necessityof integral legal protection of family, the rights and interests of minors in an independent section of the Penal Code Special Part whichwould criminalise socially dangerous infringements that harm above relationships.

Demographic Processes

This article presents a scientific analysis of the problems of the socio-economic way of life and demographic processes of the population of the Kashkadarya and Surkhandarya oases and their features in the late 19th centuries. The administrative centers experienced an increase in population and ethnic composition, but in rural areas their standard of living was significantly higher. An analysis of demographic processes shows that the population of this southern region accelerated the transition to a more sedentary lifestyle during this period. As a result of these factors, the population of the cities, which were the administrative centers in the southern oases, gradually increased, and gradually commercial and industrial enterprises appeared. In conclusion, it is concluded that there were still many problems in the demographic processes of the social life of the population in the principalities of the southern oases.

Critical Link

Abstract This article explores a critical link between two concepts which are central to the social sciences: the idea of liminarity, engendered by the anthropological tradition of self-centred and self-referred monographic studies; and the idea of individuality, a key concept within the classical tradition of the socio-historical studies of great civilizations (as well as being the crucial and familiar category of our civil and political universe). The author seeks to show how a bridge can be established between these two concepts, which may at first appear distant, by focusing on certain under-discussed aspects of rites of passage. He argues that the ‘liminal’ phase of rites of passage is tied to the ambiguity brought about through the isolation and individualization of the initiate. It is thus the experience of being ‘outside-the-world’ that brings forth and characterises liminal states, not the other way around - in short, it is individuality that engenders liminarity. Rites of passage transform this experience into complementarity, into an immersion within a network of social relationships, which the ordeals, in contrast, establish as a model for the plenitude of social life.

The Social

The concept of sociality in respect to journalism and mass media has not been studied in detail. Meanwhile, it is a significant and detached characteristic which deserves targeted studying. In social science, sociality is determined as interaction between people based on shared values. The author correlates this definition with academic views on the social function of journalism, as well as tries to find the balance between IT factors and social factors in the current period of evolution of journalism. Special attention is given to the integrative role of journalism in everyday life. In the context of of sociality, journalism and mass media are considered societal phenomena, taking into account all clarifications of typological features of certain mass media and other communication channels. The article provides a review of research papers on the topic, including national and foreign publications. The aim is to study the content and determine trends in the development of sociality of journalism and mass media. The key methodology applied by the author is a combination of institutional and socio-cultural approaches to studying socialtity. The first one emphasizes orderliness of social relationships, whereas the second focuses on particular attributes of people’s community that make up the content of social life. The socio-cultural view on sociality helps to identify peculiarities of journalism culture in a country, namely, in Russia, where it derives from the social diversity and multi-cultural environment. The research enables the author to make certain inferences regarding the growing influence of journalism and mass media on the way social interaction is organized.
