The article is focused on the issue of determining the key ideological prerequisites and means of forming social consciousness, which cultural policy is based on. The article argues that one of the means that forms the worldview of a society and individuals’ activity in terms of understanding cultural policy is cultural worldview, which acts as a «mediator» and a channel of communication between the state, the scientific community and public consciousness. It has been analyzed that the most important task on the way to achieving the main goals of the state cultural policy is not only broad information about the essence of cultural policy but understanding this essence. As a result, a tendency: «cultural policy – intercultural communication, as an object of cultural policy – cultural worldview, as a means of intercultural communication» has been revealed at the present stage of socio-cultural development. Moreover, it has been substantiated that the patterns of intercultural communication reflect the relations between cultural systems, indicate their internal connections and relationships (the structure of cultural reality) and, thereby, form cultural worldview

This book investigates how culture, particularly national culture, in Indonesia has been shaped by the government policies from the Dutch colonial period in 1900s to the Reformation era in 2000s. It is an attempt to show the relationship between the state and culture around the process of production, circulation, regulation and reception of cultural policy through different regimes. Although this book discusses government policy, the author has realized that the book needs to overcome contradictions and confusions of cultural discourse by incorporating people as explanatory element. Many aspect of culturality may be influenced by the state, but according to Jones, “it is a field that is not stable and easy to shift that facilitates resistance, and is able to turn against the state, market and other institutions” (p. 31). Jones employs two postcolonial cultural policy tools to review the history of cultural policy in Indonesia: authoritarian cultural policy and command culture. The first means that the state has assumption if majority of citizen do not have capability to inspirit a responsible citizenship and need a state’s direction in the choice of their culture. On the contrary, command culture shows that the cultural idea that is planned in fact always been placing the state as center in planning, creating policy and revising cultural practice.

Chapter 3 shows how ideas of art as a greater good have been translated into Turkish and German cultural policies. It begins with a general overview of cultural policy as a domain of statecraft rooted in modernist notions of aesthetic education as essential for modern personhood and then turns to the fundamental contradictions that characterize the interlocution of art and administration. It revisits and retells major debates and turning points in Turkish and German arts policies of the twentieth century by examining forgotten episodes of this history that allow for re-evaluating the present. These include the heated discussions on the relationship between art and politics in the early Turkish republic that resulted in a constant reshuffling of the administrative units in charge of the arts, and the fact that engagements abroad, including arts initiatives in the Ottoman Empire, were formative for Imperial Germany’s domestic cultural policy. Analyzing the tension between art as a supposedly functionless good and the many ways in which the state mobilizes different understandings of art for its own purposes, the chapter shows how the critical potential of art always also presents a risk that the state needs to contend with.

Drawing on a literature review of over two hundred items, this commentary describes what drove the English cultural sector’s interest in the social sciences from the 1980s, and the social sciences’ interest in the cultural sector. The social sciences offered the cultural sector the means to evidence and advocate its assertions of social and economic impact in line with government requirements. Their economic valuations and sociological analyses of its patterns of employment were both written on commission and independently. But despite the potential for complementary collaborations, the relationship between the social sciences and the cultural sector has been subject to the conflicting interests of the various constituencies involved. Various economists have commented on the costs of financial value being held in higher regard than human value. Perhaps this will mark a moment when cultural policy and those activities that the state-supports will become more unequivocally celebrated for adding value to society.

The work is devoted to the study of forms, models and principles of the organization of intercultural communication, as well as the peculiarities of their functioning in dialogical statements. The relevance of the topic is due to the need to develop problems of typologization of the principles of intercultural communication (IC) and the conditions for their speech implementation interest in which is dictated by changes in society, the expansion of interaction between cultures and peoples. The problems of cultural identity, cultural differences and mutual understanding are especially relevant. The subject of the research is intercultural communication in Ukrainian and English linguistic cultures. The object of the research is the typology of models, forms and principles of the organization of intercultural communication, their speech realization in the analyzed linguocultures. The aim of the study is to analyze scientific data on the problems of typologizing models, forms and principles of intercultural communication, to generalize its semantics and pragmatics in each of the studied linguocultures, to determine the typology of models, forms and principles of organizing intercultural communication. The definition of intercultural communication is obvious from the term itself: it is the communication of people representing different cultures. We adhere to the following definition: "Intercultural communication is an adequate understanding of two participants in a communicative act belonging to different national cultures." Intercultural communication as a social phenomenon was brought to life by the practical needs of the post-war world, which were supported by changes in public consciousness, in recognition of absolute value of the diversity of world cultures in the rejection of the colonial cultural policy, in the awareness of the fragility of existence and the threat of destruction of most traditional cultures and languages. Currently, there are various approaches to describing the intercultural and intracultural interaction of people in society, but the study of linguistic and semiotic models of communication is not given due attention either in domestic or foreign linguistic knowledge. The Western communication models described in the work do not meet contemporary requirements. Acquaintance with the works of Western scientists allows us to assert: used methods and approaches do not cover and do not describe all aspects of intercultural communication. IC can be explored either at the group level or at the individual level. Most of the research carried out at the group level was of an anthropological and sociological nature. They were based on two methodological approaches: 1) "understanding of cultures as cognitive systems", which is described by V. Gudenaf; 2) understanding of culture as a "symbolic system" the opposite approach of K. Geertz. The state of contemporary society, in which one of the main problems is the problem of intercultural interaction, has led to a heightened interest in the research of cultural anthropologists who have developed a new understanding of the foundations of the existence of culture. Historically, contemporary communicative linguistics, continuing the traditions of F. Schleiermacher and his "general" hermeneutics, which studied the process of understanding and its regularities, focused on the conditions for only successful communication. At the heart of any process of understanding is precisely the principle of interaction between parts and the whole, which is a prerequisite for the application of the systemic method in each specific area of research. In this way, an understanding of both the behavior of people and the products of their cultural and historical activities occurs.

The article considers the general state of affairs in the field of state and regional cultural policy implemented in the Irkutsk region. It is impossible to consider the impact of state policy on culture, without taking into account the specifics of the region. It should be taken into account that the regions of Siberia, to which the Irkutsk Region belongs, are strategically important subjects in the general policy of the state and represent a promising resource for the revival of the spiritual and cultural potential of the country. According to the author, Siberian regions are in fact an integral "donor" of the country, which dictates its own conditions for building a cultural policy. In Siberian regions, the prospects for the development of cultural policy must be built up, observing the necessary conditions for ensuring sustainable socio-economic and cultural development of the regions.

The current study proposes and refines the Appraisals in Personality (AIP) model in a multilevel investigation of whether appraisal dimensions of emotion predict differences in state neuroticism and extraversion. University students (N = 151) completed a five-factor measure of trait personality, and retrospectively reported seven situations from the previous week, giving state personality and appraisal ratings for each situation. Results indicated that: (a) trait neuroticism and extraversion predicted average levels of state neuroticism and extraversion respectively, and (b) five of the examined appraisal dimensions predicted one, or both of the state neuroticism and extraversion personality domains. However, trait personality did not moderate the relationship between appraisals and state personality. It is concluded that appraisal dimensions of emotion may provide a useful taxonomy for quantifying and comparing situations, and predicting state personality.
