The modern sociocultural situation actualizes the issue of the role and place of tradition as a criterion for the preservation and transmission of historical experience and the basis of the civic identity of society and the ethnic identity of an individual in vocational education in Russia. Russia’s entry into the world educational space, modernization of Russian education based on the competence-based approach, developed with due account for the general trends in the education development in European countries, involves not only updating the content and technologies of education. The subprogram “Vocational Education Development” of the State Program of the Russian Federation “Education Development” for the period of 2013-2020 has the purpose of increasing the contribution of vocational education to the socio-economic and cultural modernization of Russia, to increasing its global competitiveness, ensuring the demand for each student in the economy and society. Therefore, among the priority tasks of higher education is to improve the quality of training future teachers for the Russian education system at different levels, to form their readiness for pedagogical activity in modern conditions. The purpose of this article is to determine the significance of the historical and sociocultural tradition for vocational education at Russian universities by using the comparative analysis of historical-pedagogical, regulatory-legal and methodological sources. The author traces the possibilities of the impact of the university stage of education on the process of ethnocultural development and ethnic identification of a modern student in university vocational pedagogical education. The fundamental novelty of formulation and ways of solving the issue in this article is determined by taking into account the specifics of the digitalization stage in modern education and the features of university education technologies and techniques during the period of overcoming the consequences of the coronavirus epidemic.

The government plans to change the length of education for several vocational high schools (SMK) to four years to prepare fully equipped graduates with operational techniques. The purpose of this study is to explore the readers’ attitudes towards the discourse on the policy of a four-year vocational education program. This research uses secondary data collected from readers' comments on published discourses on electronic media from June 11 to June 15, 2020, completed with interviews with the local government offices, SMK, and Special Region of Yogyakarta’s Chamber of Commerce (KADIN). The content analysis techniques applied to the data resulted in the four-year education program’s discourses challenged three main things: employment, financing, and the impact on the age of graduates. These three issues can be managed if the development of SMK is appropriate and in line with the needs of business and industry (DUDI). However, the link and match process between SMK and DUDI is still not optimal due to the provincial government’s lack of role as the holder of vocational education authority in the region. Strengthening responsibility and concrete work, especially from the provincial education office, is the key to vocational education development. Without improving government performance, the goal of improving the quality of education by adding one year is futile. The government must be able to ensure graduate employment by requiring SMKs to form partnerships with DUDI, a guarantee of education funding until graduation, and skills that are equivalent to graduates’ age.AbstrakPemerintah merencanakan mengubah lama pendidikan beberapa SMK menjadi empat tahun dalam rangka mempersiapkan lulusan yang lebih menguasai teknik operasional secara utuh. Tujuan studi ini adalah mengeksplorasi sikap masyarakat terhadap wacana kebijakan program pendidikan kejuruan dari tiga menjadi empat tahun. Penelitian ini menggunakan data sekunderyang berasal dari komen pembaca terhadap pemberitaan wacana di media elektronik dari tanggal 11 s.d. 15 Juni 2020, dilengkapi dengan wawancara dengan pemerintah daerah, SMK, dan KADIN Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Berdasarkan analisis konten atas data tersebut ditemukan wacana program pendidikan empat tahun menggugat tiga hal pokok: kebekerjaan, pembiayaan, dan dampaknya terhadap usia lulusan. Ketiga isu tersebut dapat ditata jika pengembangan SMK sesuai dan sejalan dengan kebutuhan dunia usaha dan/atau dunia industri (DUDI). Namun, proses link and match SMK dengan DUDI masih belum optimal, karena kurangnya peran pemerintah provinsi sebagai pemegang kewenangan pendidikan kejuruan di daerah. Penguatan tanggung jawab dan kerja konkret terutama dari dinas pendidikan provinsi merupakan kunci pengembangan pendidikan kejuruan karena tanpa perbaikan kinerja pemerintah maka tujuan peningkatan kualitas pendidikan dengan menambah satu tahun menjadi sia-sia. Pemerintah harus mampu memastikan kebekerjaan lulusan dengan mensyaratkan SMK untuk menjalin kemitraan dengan DUDI, jaminan pembiayaan pendidikan hingga lulus, dan keterampilan yang sepadan dengan usia lulusan.

The relevance of linking the concept of sustainable development and the security discourse reveals the possibility of believing that education is a prerequisite for ensuring that “sustainable development” goals become a reality. The university has a twofold task: first, to produce knowledge that meets the demands of our time, i.e. technical knowledge, and second, to form human capital, to train specialists capable of the practical application of instrumental knowledge. The initial orientation of the concept of “sustainable development” towards a global perspective: the representation of reality in an economic paradigm, i.e., totally determined by the “logic of capital”, “monocausal economic logic”, determines the criteria by which the quality of human capital, its price, and efficiency of production of a standardized product are evaluated, the production of which is undertaken by the university-corporation that has replaced the classical “university of reason”, whose ontic foundations - the “Hegelian science”, the romantic “education of humanity” - are no longer valid in what is called modernity. The article demonstrates how modernity, constituted concerning a certain self-representation of the New European subject and presented in the liberal economic paradigm, predetermines both the goal-setting in determined by its representation of the development and the content and methods of the reform of the university. It is concluded that “sustainable development”, “security” and “university-corporation” are essentially connected with the representation of reality in the liberal version of the economic paradigm.

Background The Västerbotten intervention program (VIP), is a public health promotion program in northern Sweden with the aim of preventing cardiovascular disease. Positive effects have been reported although the evidence is not unequivocal. Since only historical controls have been used, effects from other sources than the program have largely been uncontrolled for and health related quality of life (HRQoL) has not been evaluated. Purpose By using the neighbouring county of Norrbotten (NB) as the reference population, we compare HRQoL in Västerbotten (VB) and in NB. Methods In 2014 the Northern Sweden survey, Monitoring of Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease (MONICA), examined a random sample from the two counties. HRQoL was measured with the EQ-5D-3L. In total, 1112 subjects aged 40–74 years participated, 516 in VB and 594 in NB. Differences in mean QoL between VB and NB were analysed via Student’s t-test and the Pearson chi-square test. Results Average HRQoL measured by the EQ-5D-index was 0.798 in VB and 0.811 in NB, a difference of 0.013 (p = 0.2, CI -0.009 to 0.036). For subjects aged 45–54 years, the HRQoL was lower in VB than in NB, a difference of 0.048 (p = 0.041; CI 0.002 to 0.0094). Men had higher HRQoL than women, and university educated had higher HRQoL than those without university education. EQ-VAS showed similar results. Subjects from NB and from VB did not differ regarding age, gender and level of education. In NB, HRQoL decrease with age, a pattern not seen in VB. Conclusions We found similar levels of HRQoL in VB and in NB.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the impact of three determinants of organizational identification (OID) on employee performance (EP) in the context of private business institutions. Design/methodology/approach A sample of 175 permanent faculty members from four top universities in Karachi, Pakistan, was interviewed using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire. The data were inserted in SPSS 22 and SmartPLS v 3.2 for performing the analysis. Findings Results of the study showed a significant effect in perceived supervisor support on OID; OID; job satisfaction and EP; and mediating relationship. Conversely, an insignificant effect was observed in workplace incivility. Research limitations/implications It is highly recommended that organizations work on the areas that lead to enhancing their employees’ performance. Also, human resource should create a healthy culture that promotes initiatives, open-door policies and discourages power distance. Lastly, one of the key responsibilities of management is to strengthen their OID because employees are more likely to identify with their supervisors if they invest in the organizations they work for. Practical implications This study will help strengthen the relationship between supervisors and university employees. It will guide the supervisors to acknowledge and appreciate the efforts of their subordinates and develop recreational policies and employee engagement activities. In addition, it will help develop a conducive environment and enhance the quality of education in the university and the society. Originality/value Understanding the determinants of OID on EP in the educational context is very important as it enhances the quality of EP and the overall quality of education of the institution.
