Similarities And Differences

Given the changes of the modern family, this study seeks to compare the ways in which television dramas of four East Asian societies, namely Korea, China, Japan and Taiwan, represent the family and family relationships. By analysing their similarities and differences, the study attempts to explore changes of family in these supposedly Confucian East Asian societies. Three analytic categories were proposed: the structure and form of the family as represented in dramas; family relationships; individuality and the family. The study found that the historical trajectories of East Asian countries are articulated in the different familial representations across the television dramas of the countries in the region surveyed. The common assumption that all East Asian countries have the same model of the Confucian family therefore needs to be re-examined along the more specific national conditions.

Methodological Considerations

The purpose of this article is to review and describe the psychosocial impact of divorce on children and adolescents facing divorce situations in their lives, as well as to provide psychological intervention for their emotional well- being. Recently, problems related to the family have become increasingly relevant in society. The modern family has undergone major changes: its size and number of children have decreased, the roles of the older brother and sister have not become so great, and the influence of the older generation is not unconditional. But the most important thing is that the number of divorces has increased dramatically — almost every second marriage breaks up. But divorce is a strong shock for all family members, and first of all, for children. High divorce rates recorded in Kazakhstan, especially in cities, are one of the most serious consequences of the imbalance in family relationships. Finally, some suggestions were included regarding methodological considerations in conducting prospective research.

World of children’s experiences, meanings, values, emotions is still an unexplored area for social sciences. Particularly interesting are children’s experiences of being a member of the modern family. In the literature a lot is written about transformations of the family as a social group, it’s functions, tasks, risks and emerging alternative entities in the form of non-normative family practices are analyzed. Much is said about the phenomenon of orphanhood also as a consequence of the crisis experienced by the family. In the analysis of the problem of orphanhood attention is primarily placed on social orphanhood as the most visible and verifiable in statistics expressing the number of children living in residential care or foster care family forms. Little is mentioned about emotional orphanhood. The issue of emotional orphanhood is complex, which makes it extremely difficult study it. Definitions found in the literature are often not unequivocal. Emotional orphanhood can be divided on psychological, spiritual, occult, caused by emigration. Definitions are based on different criteria: emotional rejection, narrowing or lack of realisation of parental functions, temporary disconnection of family members. The common part of them is the fact that every one of them describes a child that lives without satisfying basic emotional needs (love, intimacy, acceptance, understanding) due to weakening or destruction of emotional bonds.

Realita tersebut secara faktual menunjukkan bahwa kekerasan dalam rumah tangga terhadap istri, merupakan suatu fenomena yang terkadang dianggap lazim di lingkungan masyarakat. Anggapan lazim ini tentunya tidak terlepas dari konstruksi sosial yang berkembang di tengah masyarakat bahwa suami adalah kepala keluarga dan memiliki otoritas penuh terhadap anggota keluarga termasuk isteri. Dalam konteks itu kajian ini berupaya mengupas tentang bagaimana konsep perlindungan terhadap perempuan korban KDRT dalam hukum Islam. Dalam konteks perlindungan perempuan dalam rumah tangga,teks-teks al-Qur’an memberikan banyak jawaban yang mengharuskan perwujudan hubungan rumah tangga secara ma’ruf dalam arti setara, adil dan demokratis. Hal ini menegaskan bahwa hukum Islam membawa misi perlindungan, yaitu sebagai rahmat bagi seluruh manusia di muka bumi. Hal ini juga diharmonisasikan dengan hukum perlindungan perempuan yang berlaku di Indonesia saat ini.

Biographical Analysis

This article provides a comparative biographical analysis of V.V. Rozanov and M.O. Menshikov using materials from the latter's notebooks not previously published. Similarities and differences in the views and work of both publicists in the context of their personal and social life are revealed. The specific and the common aspects in the worldview and the work of the two publicists in the context of personal and public life are revealed. The authors come to the conclusion that for both of them their publicistic talent served as the toll of self-realization and the means to support their families. The family for both was the main value in life. The work at the “Novoye Vremya” journal made their journalistic work politically loaded, that was especially apparent in the articles that were interpreted as anti-Semitic by a part of the society in the time of the proceedings of the “Beilis case”. However, the revolutionary events led Rozanov and Menshikov to rethink their positions, including those on the Jewish question.

The article notes that each culture has its own «normative» model of the family, characterized by its defining parameters. These parameters reflect different indicators – descriptors – as attributes that determine the corresponding value and behavior in society. The types of family relationships identified by humanitarian science are revealed. It is proved that in a retrospective of the historical development of mankind, the relationships not only of the family and society, but also of the family and the individual changed, which depended on many factors. The article analyzes the negative trends of marriage and family relations, it is noted that along with the form of actual (civil) marriage, there is a tendency to the appearance of a large number of other forms of marriage unions: guest, concubinate, open marriage, business marriage, fictitious, creative union, polygyny, group marriage, same-sex cohabitation, virtual marriage (web-marriage), etc. This trend leads to a change in the content of the phenomenon of marriage, the adoption of actual marriage as a social norm. It is noted that today the semantic attitudes of a person are deformed and the concepts of the purpose and values of life are distorted, there is a noticeable turn of mass consciousness from the collectivist values of the family to the individual values of the person, which to a certain extent disorganizes both family life and social relations. It is noted that according to the results of the study, the authors of this article developed an educational module "Modern Family" for students of a different professional fields.

Relevance and problem statement. Modern unstable society is characterized by narrowing the boundaries of controlled socialization and expanding the boundaries of spontaneous socialization of a teenager based on his immersion in the question arises about the importance of the family in the process of socialization of a teenager in the conditions of expanding the space of socialization. There is a need to study the role of the family in this process, to search, develop and test research methods that allow us to reveal the phenomenon of socialization from the side of its value characteristics.

Abels), profile update reflexive processes (by S. A. Raschetina). Materials and results of the study. The study showed that for all the problems that exist in the family of the perestroika era and in the modern family, it acts for a teenager as a value and the first (main) support in the processes of socialization. The positions well known in psychology about the importance of interpersonal relations in adolescence for the formation of attitudes towards oneself as the basis of socialization are confirmed. Today, the frontiers of making friends have expanded enormously on the basis of Internet communication. The types of activities of interest to a teenager (traditional and new ones related to digitalization) are the third pillar of socialization. Conclusion. The “Ego – I” method of photo research has a wide range of possibilities for quantitative and qualitative analysis of the socialization process to identify the value Pillars of this process.
