Objectives. The cognitive purpose of the article is to describe the stereotype of the Africans in the profiles of stereotypical perception of the Poles, created under the influence of the media and the low level of cultural competence of the Poles, as well as to identify the Poles’ attitudes towards the Africans and social problems arising in mutual relations. Background. The image of Africa and its inhabitants in the social perception of Poles is an issue still under-studied and burdened with deficit empirical knowledge. He is burdened with stereotypes created over many years by building a distorted image of Africa through the media and pop culture. An important determinant of the subjective image of the inhabitants of Africa in the perception of Poles is also their lack of cultural competence, which is based on the small population of Africans in Poland and limited contacts with them, as well as the lack of tendency of Poles to expand their knowledge about other nations. Methodology. The article is based mainly on qualitative research — on the analysis of secondary data (desk research) coming from research reports, which are supplemented by the results of quantitative research on the perception of refugees and immigrants in the opinion of the young generation of the Poles. The essence of the article is an attempt to answer the question: what is the image of Africans and Africa in Poland and to what extent is it changing? Conclusions. However, the stigmas of the past seem to be disappearing, and Polish society is also opening up to the world in terms of culture. thanks to this, changes in the perception of Poles are visible not only towards Africans but also to other nations. The increase in the population of „foreign” nationalities, including those from Africa, as well as the spatial mobility of Poles observed in Poland mean that the image of Africans is changing. It is still a slow process, but it shows change — moving away from misperception and stereotypes in favor of knowledge and openness.

The article analyzes the social fears of the young generation of a large industrial city. The appeal to media products of young people in the modern information society becomes ritualistic, since the media almost instantly reflect current events through digital communication. Almost every agenda highlights situations / events / persons that can become a source of anxiety, fears and concerns. Based on the content analysis of publications presented in the network edition "E1.RU Ekaterinburg Online" and the network city community "[TE] Typical Yekaterinburg", an analysis of the social fears of young people was carried out. In total, 438 publications / posts were analyzed that were published from September 1 to September 30, 2020. The research materials indicate that publications on the spread of COVID-19, medicine and health, as well as delinquent behavior occupy the leading positions in the structure of news stories. The repertoire of social fears includes fears for life and health; fears of getting into situations that cannot be controlled; fears of becoming a victim of a crime; global fears; fears of the state. The results of the content analysis showed that the tonality of publications and the vocabulary used act as a trigger for the formation of social fears and catastrophic consciousness. The exception is news that touches on the issue of a pandemic: information is presented in a neutral manner, vocabulary is focused on a constructive explanation of the situation, is designed to calm the audience and level moral panic. The rhetoric of publications is an effective tool both provoking social fears and shaping socially responsible behavior. An increase in the proportion of positively emotionally minded posts and texts reduces social aggression, the media become a regulator of social actions and interactions of individuals in conditions of uncertainty.

Research Goal

The young generation is often overlooked in scientific discourse, although it is the youth (students) who often play a leading role in political and social change in the country. One such case is Ukraine, where it is the young people who started the largest protests in the country's thirty-year independent history. The presented article is an attempt to characterize the Ukrainian generation of «freedom» (Marzęcki, 2020) (youth people born during the period of Ukrainian independence, that are not impact of authoritarian regime socialization) from a socio-political perspective. The main research goal of this article is an endeavour to fully understand, describe and explain the attitude of the young generation (students) towards democracy (the article also includes comparisons to polish youth). This specific objective was achieved by analysing survey data. On the other hand, specific issues and problems identified at the quantitative research stage were examined based on data collected during in-depth interviews with sixteen students in Ukraine. In this sense, a second important specific goal has been achieved, i.e. diagnosis, description and explanation of behavioural patterns (political activity) dominating the social consciousness of students, which are considered justified and effective in relation to the world of politics. Author himself, conducted qualitative (IDI – 16 respondents) and quantitative research (1043 surveys) on a representative group of youth respondents in Ukraine. Quantitative research has been conducted in fourteen universities, preserving the territorial diversification. The results contained in the summary of the article, however, are not very optimistic. It is safe to say that the democratic system is in crisis, and the revolutionary cycle is still probably not completed in Ukraine.
