The article identifies three stages in the development of sociology at BSU, reveals their content and features. It is argued that the institutionalisation of sociology on the territory of Belarus began with the opening of the Belarusian State University and the creation of the department of sociology and primitive culture, where students were given lectures on genetic sociology, issues of labour, law, cultural history, and sociology of family and marriage. After the identification of historical materialism with sociology, the teaching of sociological disciplines was excluded from the curricula of BSU. Sociology revived in the 1960s with the creation of the Problematic Research Laboratory of Sociological Studies at the BSU. In its depths, as well as in the sector of applied sociology at the department of philosophy of the humanities faculties, personnel were trained and the necessary conditions were created for the opening of the section of sociology and the department of sociology in 1989. Professor G. P. Davidyuk is rightfully considered to be the founder of modern Belarusian sociology. Currently, at BSU, centuries-old traditions in the field of sociological science and education are being developed at the Center for Sociological and Political Researches and at the department of sociology of the faculty of philosophy and social sciences. It is concluded that BSU is one of the leading universities in the post-Soviet space and it possesses everything necessary for its further development. Sociological science and scientific schools are actively developing at BSU. The university staff includes well-known specialists who provide the training of highly qualified personnel with competences to work in conditions of global instability and readiness to give an adequate respond to the new challenges of the time.

The article considers the age-old path of development of sociology at the Belarusian State University (BSU). It is argued that the institutionalization of sociology on the territory of Belarus began with the opening of the Belarusian State University and the creation of the Department of Sociology and Primitive Culture (S. Z. Katzenbogen), where students were given lectures on genetic sociology, issues of labor, law, cultural history, and sociology of family and marriage. After the identification of historical materialism with sociology, the teaching of sociological disciplines was excluded from the curricula of BSU. Sociology revived in the 1960s with the creation of the Problematic Research Laboratory of Sociological Studies at the BSU (PRLSS–BSU) (first head – Prof. I. N. Lushchitsky). In its depths, as well as in the sector of applied sociology at the Department of Philosophy of the Humanities Faculties (Prof. G. P. Davidyuk), personnel were trained and the necessary conditions were created for the opening of the Department of Sociology and the Department of Sociology in 1989 (the first head of the department was Prof. A. N. Elsukov). Professor G. P. Davidyuk is rightfully considered the founder of modern Belarusian sociology. At present, at BSU, centuries-old traditions in the field of sociological science and education are being developed at the Center for Sociological and Political Researches (headed by Prof. D. G. Rotman) and at the Department of Sociology of the Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences (headed by Prof. A. N. Danilov).

Abstract Human attitudes to various nonhuman animals have varied considerably across cultures and throughout time. While some of our responses are undoubtedly instinctive and universal—a visceral fear of large carnivores or the feeling of spontaneous warmth for creatures exhibiting high degrees of neoteny—it is clear that our attitude toward specific species is largely shaped by our innate anthropomorphism: that is, when we think about animals, we are also thinking about ourselves. There are few better examples of this than the shifting attitudes toward whales and dolphins throughout the 20th century, particularly among citizens of Western democracies. This article narrates the cultural history of this development and demonstrates how the current enchantment with whales and dolphins is primarily the result of two broad—and related—cultural developments: the modern entertainment complex, particularly cinema, television, and aquatic theme parks; and the 1960s counterculture, with its potent blend of holistic ecology, speculative neuroscience, and mysticism. The result was the creation of what we might think of as the “metaphysical whale,” a creature who has inspired the abolitionist stance toward whaling.

The article examines the origins and philosophy of the development of sociology at the Belarusian State University (BSU), which has accumulated the wisdom and socio-political thought of Belarusian thinkers of the past, absorbed the research experience of previous generations. Since the beginning of the work of BSU in 1921, the Department of Sociology and Primitive Culture was created (S.Z. Katzenbogen). The course in genetic sociology, which was taught by Professor S.Z. Katzenbogen, to a greater extent resembled a kind of fusion of philosophical and sociological thought and primitive history, was unlike modern ideas about sociological science. This period did not last long. Soon repressions broke out, the Great Patriotic War, and the post-war reconstruction took place, which significantly delayed the development of sociology as an independent science. All this time, sociology functioned in the bosom of philosophical knowledge, where the convergence of meanings and meaningful mutual enrichment took place, the difficult process of accumulating theoretical, methodological and practical experience was going on. The rticle highlights the key role of BSU in institutionalization, development of sociological science and education in Belarus. The leader of the revival of sociology at BSU was Professor G.P. Davidyuk (1923–2020). Following the example of the Belarusian State University, in the 1960s–1970s, sociological structures were created in all the leading universities of the republic; the work of the applied sociology sector of BSU contributed to the development of factory sociology. In 1989, a sociological department and a department of sociology were opened, at the end of 1996, the Center for Sociological and Political Research was established. Since 1997, the scientific and theoretical Journal of BSU. Sociology, and in 2000 the Belarusian Sociological Society began to function, a branch of the Department of Sociology of the Belarusian State University was opened at the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. The traditions of previous generations, laid down by the leaders of the Belarusian sociological school, are gradually being transformed, taking into account the development of scientific, technological and informational and communicative progress, revising curricula and training programs for modern sociologists.

Training Of Personnel

The weak motivation of young people to scientific and pedagogical activity, the shortcomings of the system of training highly qualified personnel, the decline in the interest of postgraduate graduates in professional scientific and pedagogical activity and many other factors lead to the aging of scientific and pedagogical personnel of Russian universities. In the last few years, universities have been actively searching for approaches to improving the systems of reproduction of scientific and pedagogical personnel. The analysis of programs aimed at rejuvenation of personnel and building up the scientific potential of the university, carried out in the article, allowed us to identify the key features of practical tools used in universities. The most promising mechanism can be considered contract training, since it allows you to secure young promising personnel at the university for at least several years. At the same time, this practice is not systematized, has no theoretical and methodological justification, in addition, there are no conceptual developments of the model of the contract training of scientific and pedagogical personnel. The purpose of this article is to develop a conceptual model of the contract training of highly qualified scientific and pedagogical personnel and to analyze the implemented model. The methodology of this work is based on a systematic approach, in which both special methods were used: comparative analysis, content analysis of documents, morphological analysis, and general scientific research methods. To achieve stated goal, the practice of implementing a model of contract training of personnel is revealed on the example of the Vladivostok State University of Economics and Service. The program of reproduction of scientific and pedagogical personnel based on the system of targeted contract training has been implemented at the university for several years and already has certain results. The scientific novelty of this work consists in the formation of conceptual approach to the development and implementation of a system of the contract training of scientific and pedagogical personnel for universities. The article may be useful for researchers and university managers dealing with the issues of training highly qualified personnel, rejuvenation of the personnel structure and personnel management of the university in general.

Innovative scientific and technological centers make it possible to achieve accelerated rates of development of the country’s economy, provide preconditions for accelerating growth of the country’s GDP, retain highly qualified personnel in the country and ensure the introduction of new technologies created on the territory of the ISTC. The article uses a generalization of a significant number of normative, empirical and theoretical sources. The closest in terms of the form of organization of technological and innovative infrastructure abroad are territorial clusters («Silicon Valley»), science cities («Tsukuba») and technology parks («Biopolis»). Analyzing the innovative territorial clusters and science cities, the authors identified their main structural components also used when creating an ISTC in Russia. Regulatory documents for the creation of the ISTC in Russia are at the stage of the preparation since 2017, the process of establishing ISTC in Russia began in 2019. As for 2021 – three ISTC are being created in Russia and eleven are at the stage of creation. Achieving budgetary and commercial efficiency is an urgent task when creating an ISTC in Russia. The purpose of the article is to determine the indicators of budgetary and commercial efficiency when creating an ISTC in Russia. The authors proposed the composition and qualitative characteristics of indicators of the commercial and budgetary efficiency of projects for the creation of the ISTC, the sequence of the accounting and analytical process and the range values. The composition of indicators of the commercial and budgetary efficiency of ISTC projects is reduced to the characteristics of economic turnover, expenditure obligations, absolute and relative economic benefits of financial investments. Among the main indicators of the efficiency of investments in the ISTC are highlighted: revenue, profit, cash flow and payback period of investments, net present value and internal rate of return. The measurement of budgetary efficiency is proposed as a result of comparing budgetary funds for the creation of the ISTC and tax funds received by the state excluding the amount of shortfalls of the Russian Federation.

In recent years, there has been an active revival of the movement of Student detachments. The authors, using the example of the Chelyabinsk Institute of Railway Transport — branch of the Ural State University of Railway Transport, share their experience in organizing student teams. Questions are raised about the potential of student detachments in solving modern problems related to the training of future specialists. By organizing student detachments in an educational institution, it is possible to carry out real practical training of students for future professional activities. Student detachments helps to establish mutually beneficial cooperation between the university and the future employer interested in obtaining highly qualified personnel for the industry. The role of construction detachments in the formation of personality and worldview of modern students, motivation of their behavior is described. The tendencies of the development of detachment life during the period of academic semesters are shown: creative festivals, sports days, intellectual contests, charity events. The work of students in the construction detachments makes it possible to prepare not only a highly qualified specialist, but also to bring up a harmonious personality. Prospects for the development of the student detachments in Russia are considered. The development and support of the student detachment movement is one of the most important vectors in modern life, it is strategically important, it educates student youth in the right direction, it is the popularization of labor as a means to ensure a reliable future for oneself, the education of patriotism.
