The instability of the current situation and the forced search for oneself in the world of “current modernity”, by a requirement in forming in the process of socialization, authentication of personality able to be commuted from one identity to other. Target. The subject of the author’s attention will be an analysis of the dynamics of identity formation in a historical context that has gone from “We” to “I” and “I’”. Methodology and methods. The research is based on three scientific paradigms: 1) symbolic interactionism; 2) discursive approach; 3) sociology of knowledge. Results. The dynamics of identity formation in the history of mankind has gone through at least three stages, in the direction from “We”, when the problems of adaptation to the environment came to the fore. As the division of labor intensifies and the transition from polytheism to monotheism, a lot of “we” are added to the “We”-identity, associated with different spheres of society and human life, and the class structure of society rigidly fixed the subject within society and prescribed identity and led identification. New time gave a rise to “I”-identity, which was characterized by the desire to create a holistic personality, responsible for their actions. In the twentieth century, after the war, an “I’”-identity was formed, where there was no stable core, due to that the subject was in the process of transition from one self to another, and that brought a certain chaos into his life. Conclusion. The history of identity formation is a continuous process of transition from “We”-identity, based on an imitation, to “I”-identity, formed on the base of processes of educating, and “I’” identity, based on the processes of switching (transition) from one identity to other.

Problem setting. The relevance of our study is due to the excessive popularity of the concept of «socio-cultural identity» as a scientific term and tool for studying the postmodern world. As a concept of socio-humanitarian knowledge, it remains one of the most uncertain and at the same time actively used in modern research for theoretical and practical analysis and typology of socio-cultural processes. Understanding the specifics of socio-cultural identity and its formation in postmodern conditions is one of the most relevant and acute topics of modern science, which can provide a full understanding of the essence of this world. Recent research and publications analysis. Representatives of almost all humanities are involved in the discussion about identity. The fundamental development of the concept of sociocultural identity of the postmodern world is contained in the works of J. Habermas, E. Giddens, E. Erickson, A. Etzioni, M. Castells, F. Cassidy, S. Huntington, E. Smith, F. Fukuyama, W. Hesle and etc. Ukrainian researchers have also contributed to understanding the problem of identity. They have a large number of works that are directly or indirectly related to the phenomenon of identity and have such a wide variety of topics that it is not possible to present it exhaustively. A specific feature of their work is the indepth attention to everything related to the national component of socio-cultural identity. The main result of the accumulation of knowledge about socio-cultural identity by the social sciences and humanities is the understanding that adequate research of this phenomenon is possible only in an interdisciplinary space. The tendency to comprehend identity in science persists and in parallel new directions of research are developing – first of all, it is a study of the social construction of identity in the postmodern era. Paper objective. The purpose of our study is resource of the peculiarities of the transformation of socio-cultural identity as an object and subject of social construction, which has specific features in the postmodern conditions, which has specifics in Ukrainian society. Paper main body. The tendency to study identity in a socio-cultural perspective was formed at the end of the XX century, when it began to be positioned as a set of positive signs of combining oneself with a community based on a common historical past and cultural values. Socio-cultural identity has a personal, individual level and social, group and combines different modifications that depend on its basic criteria – civilization, regional, civic, political, ethnic, national and others. An indisputable sign of the times isthe active formation of a hybrid, multiple identity (national, regional, civilizational), when different criteria are used for self-identification, as well as mosaic identity, when selfdetermination criteria are quickly adjusted according to the new life situation. Postmodern is a historical epoch that begins in the XX cent. and continues to this day, increasingly acquiring such features as dynamism, nonlinearity, ephemerality and conflictgenerating development of socio-political processes, exacerbation of territorial, demographic, national, religious, environmental and other problems. Transformational processes of the ending of the XX century led to a weakening of its clarity and the formation of «soft», «fluid» identity, which is associated with the departure into the past of the classical forms of class structure of modern society. The arena of the struggle for identity is politics, various economic, political and social processes that act as mechanisms for constructing socio-cultural identity. The construction of identity is directly based on the problem of social construction of reality. The transformation of socio-cultural identity of the postmodern is due to the following features of the era: pluralization; continuous dynamism, variability that often destroys, devalues, marginalizes traditional basic spiritual values; bifurcation of cultural space; absolutization of freedom and opportunities for individual choice; high level of tolerance; formalization and virtualization of identity, its blurring. Based on this, we identify the leading features of socio-cultural identity of the postmodern: first, personalization, individualization of identity, which is seen as a personal project that allows the individual full self-expression; secondly, flexibility, plasticity, variability. Scientists have repeatedly pointed out the lack of a project of postmodern identity acceptable to Ukrainian society, the need to construct a «new» Ukrainian identity, however, understanding this problem in the context of globalization, called for the uniqueness of the Ukrainian nation. Conclusions of the research. The debate about socio-cultural identity in Ukraine is growing and gaining popularity due to social crises and constant transformations, and, in our opinion, because for a long time (after independence) identity policy was not a priority and the elite did not care about its construction.The Ukrainian elite, trying to build a sociocultural identity in postmodern society, must use the full potential of cultural space – historical and cultural attractions, language, science (especially the humanities), literature and art, education, museums – to develop a consolidated identification project. The solution to the problem of building a socio-cultural identity in Ukraine can be manifested in two directions – a radical change of identity in accordance with the complete modernization of society in post-Soviet times; – creation of non-conflict (low-conflict) socio-cultural identity on the basis of continuity and preservation of cultural tradition, which could become an effective resource for the development of society

Full textAbstract:
In historical and philosophical knowledge, since antiquity, the content side of the concept of "identity" has been considered in line with the general philosophical category of "identity". In this article, the object of research is the issues of identity in relation to the socio-cultural sphere, while taking into account the understanding of identity from the standpoint of logic, ontology, sociology, anthropology, psychology, linguistics. Accordingly, the subject of this study is the phenomenon of socio-cultural identity, in particular, in the context of the construction of a new self-consciousness in a changing Russia. Identity is interpreted by the authors as the socio-psychological stability of the subjects of society from the individual to the social community at the level of an ethnic group and people. At the same time, special emphasis is placed on identifying the meanings of such components of identity as the presence of a world of spiritual values, the peculiarities of the development of the ethno-cultural factor of society and others in relation to the history and current state of Russian society. The political and legal context of the identity of modern Russian society is analyzed separately. Since language is one of the leading factors in the construction of (ethnic, social, religious, etc.) identity, the authors analyze sociolinguistic and linguoculturological processes affecting the formation of self-identification of the individual and society. In the concluding part of the article it is indicated that in the modern conditions of the development of the cultural and civilizational process, the formation of self-consciousness and socio-cultural identity become the dominant measure of the existence of modern society. Socio-cultural identity by its nature encompasses the spiritual, psychological, political, legal and moral atmosphere of society. According to the authors of the article, in relation to Russian society, the understanding of socio-cultural identity as a way of establishing one's own civilizational specificity and originality has acquired particular importance. The awareness of the Russian person of his own self as a fragment of modern civilization is acquiring a semantic expression of eventfulness today. The scientific novelty of this study consists in identifying the main characteristics of the socio-cultural identity of modern Russian society.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the problem of migrant identity transformation in the globalizing sociocultural space. Globalization has determined new social development tendencies and prospects, including the modern nomadism. International migration is caused by a set of determining factors and forms a multi-layered and multifaceted sociocultural phenomenon studied by a number of humanities. The article substantiates methodological usefulness of studying migration and its sociocultural implications within the framework of the multidisciplinary approach. The formation of the new migrant identity types is presented as a dichotomy of transnationalism and assimilation. The broadening of the lifespace due to migration practices causes replacement of the traditional national identity by new identity types, transnational identity becoming the most widespread. The uniqueness of the transnational identity lies in its universalism, ability of the agent to identify with different cultures and peoples simultaneously. Transnationalism is more characteristic for Western societies, while assimilation as a type of sociocultural adaptation typical for the countries of the East. The Eastern culture and mentality are less flexible and striving for self-preservation they assimilate foreign cultural elements, while preserving their own uniqueness and distinctiveness. A special identity type, the drifting identity, taking shape within the second generation immigrants is highlighted in the article. The socio-philosophical analysis carried out in the article makes it possible to ascertain the existence of the socio-spatial identity integrating various identity types. Keywords: migration, nomadism, identity, determinants of migration, transnationalism, assimilation, sociocultural space

The national-state identity is an integrated image of “us”, “ours”, which is a complex political, psychological and socio-cultural construct, the dynamics of which is due to both the transformation of the political system of contemporary Russia and a wide set of factors related to national history and culture. The most remarkable socio-cultural imperatives of the Russian national-state identity include the important role of the image of space as a symbol of “greatness” and the resource “potential” of Russia; personalization and the “polar” emotional attitude towards state power, internal imbalance of “image of historical time”, which has retrospective and mythological character in contemporary Russia.

In recent years, the literature of Western and Russian sociology has shown a growing scientific interest in the phenomenon of religiosity, in particular, the religious component of social identity. Research on the topic of religious conversion was especially important. The problem of conversion is studied in cultural studies, sociology, psychology, social anthropology, has become a research topic of these scientific disciplines. Existing theoretical and empirical research on this topic shows that the materials are studied in detail, depending on the structure of the conversion, its gradual development and the factors of formation. However, the relationship between religious conversion and social identity is rarely considered in sociological works. The purpose of this article is to study the process of religious conversion of envelopes from Christianity to Islam. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that Islam is not a traditional religion for newcomers to their historical homeland.

Full textAbstract:
The article reconsiders the sociolinguistic basis of gender-specific vocabulary representation within the context of linguistic identity’s sociocultural transformations. The comprehension of language interaction is postulated as an indispensable precondition for understanding linguistic identity to affect their sociocultural development. It is also connected with the influence of sociocultural transformations on the features of cognitive processes. The study primarily follows selection, descriptive, and synthesis methods. The strategies of gender-specific vocabulary usage as a rate of male and female’s differentiation are essential in the study of linguistic identity. It is important in the sense that the gender category determines the psychological and social development of individuals, especially their verbal behaviour. Gender-specific vocabulary circulation in the context of the evolution of linguistic identity is the result of such sociocultural processes as a focus on gender-sensitive communication patterns, avoidance of language gender imbalance, and social dynamics. Gender-specific vocabulary may serve as a modifier of an individual’s verbal behaviour and speech internalisation processes. Such kinds of lexis may act as tools for constructing the linguistic view of the world and defining the language ontologisation options. In the context of the last years’ social and cultural changes, the development of linguistic identity explicates the idea of verbal behaviour and sociocultural processes’ interdependence. Linguistic identity has been revealed as a representative of identity in general to reflect social and cultural levels of existence which are shown through the language. Keywords: speaker, communication, social parity, verbalisation, gender, behavioural pattern.

Religious and sociocultural values play a significant role in constructing a person’s self-identity and influencing their choices. This paper explores the religious and sociocultural values depicted in Akwaeke Emezi’s The Death of Vivek Oji (2020) and the impact of those values on Vivek's life decisions. Vivek's self-identity construction is highlighted, as well as how religious and sociocultural values influence his decisions and isolate him from the world of adults in favor of spending time with peers he trusts and who show more tolerance and openness toward his choices. Through a sociocultural and textual lens, this study traces Vivek's transformation, and how his lifestyle choices impact both his appearance and the discovery of himself. This paper outlines why the choices Vivek makes do not match the sociocultural and religious values of his community, which leads him to isolate himself and choose a life he prefers, away from his family and the world of adults. His choices lead him to a tragic end, with his bewildered mother finding her son dead, rolled in colorful fabric, at her front door. Vivek's disorienting blackouts distract his parents from recognizing the shifts taking place in their son's life, beginning with changes to his appearance: long hair, interest in makeup, and women's dresses. His parents find out after his death about the life Vivek led as a homosexual, which the religious and sociocultural values of the community could not appreciate or approve of.

Introduction. The study of the basic characteristics of the sociocultural identity of a modern student as value and semantic foundations of personal development is relevant due to the cultural and moral transformations of modern society and the practical need to change the system of education in higher education.Aim. The current research aims to reveal the sociocultural characteristics by which a modern student describes himself/herself when compared with a group and to identify groups, communities, which is the subject of identification for the student.Methodology and research methods. The authors used a quantitative approach to the collection and analysis of the data obtained. This made it possible to cover a large sample and obtain statistically reliable results. The theoretical methods of research were historiographical and comparative types of analysis (allowed to formulate the initial provisions of the study); conceptual and terminological analysis of philosophical, psychological, psychological-pedagogical, socio-psychological literature (used to describe the categorical field of the problem); systematisation and conceptualisation of scientific ideas. The following empirical methods were applied: questionnaires, testing. Data processing methods: methods of mathematical statistics (descriptive statistics, Student’s T-test, one-factor analysis of variance).Results. The article contains the results of an empirical study of the sociocultural identity of students. The authors defined the foundations of the ideas of modern youth about themselves.

The adoption of digital television broadcasting across the world has heavily affected TV market size and also shifted viewer preferences towards foreign rather than local programmes. The challenge for stakeholders is how to preserve local cultural values in the new digital platforms, where consumers decide what and how they watch. Using Moalosi's culture-orientated model, this qualitative study looks at the extraction and categorization of relevant Ghanaian sociocultural values enshrined in concepts of human dignity that translate into sociocultural values. It analysis and translates the values into brand ident (identity) design features at the early stage of design. Results indicate that fusing associated sociocultural values into TV brand channel ident design connects consumers to their traditions. TV idents creatively associated with sociocultural values make a brand unique and relevant in this multichannel era.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores a sociocultural approach to the development of moral identity, by considering the recently published autobiography of Ingo Hasselbach. Hasselbach, the founder (in 1991) of the National Alternative neo-Nazi party in East Germany, writes about his childhood and youth, how and why he embraced the neo-Nazi perspective, and how and why he ultimately repudiated the movement that he had helped to create. The analysis of Hasselbach’s story employs a “mediated action” approach to identity formation (Penuel & Wertsch, 1995; Wertsch, 1998). Such an approach entails taking human action as the starting point for the study of identity development, and understanding that mediated action, rather than an inner sense of identity, continuity, or sameness, provides the primary unit of analysis. In bringing a sociocultural perspective to bear on Hasselbach’s autobiographical narrative, this paper thus highlights the connections that emerge in his autobiography between his changing/developing sense of moral identity and his moral actions and interactions in the world. In so doing, it explores and explicates the relationship between Hasselbach’s moral identity and the sociocultural context in which it develops.

This article briefly presents the history of the Karakalpak people, provides some historical data on the origin of the Karakalpak people, their socio-cultural characteristics, human aspects and national mentality. From a sociological point of view, the daily and cultural life of the Karakalpak people was analyzed, which is reflected in the social space, its tendency towards national identity, the social nature of the Karakalpaks as the historical and socio-cultural identity of an ethnic group in interactions and relationships. The authors consider the cultural life of the Karakalpaks, which expresses the national identity of the Karakalpak people. The article also emphasizes the need for a theoretical understanding of the features of social reality due to the fact that with the development of modern society, new phenomena arise that affect the national mentality of the people, the development of civil society in the Republic of Karakalpakstan. In connection with these phenomena, there is a growing need to support multi-ethnic relations and citizenship. The authors note that the acceleration of the development of the information society, the factors of migration in the Republic of Karakalpakstan also require an in-depth analysis of the current state of development of civil society, multi-ethnic relations and the need to support citizenship. Indeed, as globalization intensifies, so does the need to preserve local identity.

This study investigates the nuanced relationship between the hijab, identity, and sociocultural influences among Muslim women in the West. Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research aims to understand the diverse meanings attached to the hijab and the sociocultural dynamics shaping its practices. The research problem stems from the necessity to explore how Muslim women in the West experience and interpret the hijab within the complex interplay of identity, sociocultural factors, and a sense of belonging. The study pursues three main objectives; to uncover the layered significance of the hijab, to analyze sociocultural influences impacting hijab practices, and to examine the intersection of identity and belonging in relation to the hijab. The novelty of this study lies in the application of the Hijab Identity Matrix framework, providing a structured approach to analyze the interplay of identity and sociocultural influences related to the hijab. The research addresses a gap in the current literature by systematically exploring the multifaceted meanings of the hijab among Muslim women in the Western context. This study opens a new avenue for future research, emphasizing the need for culturally sensitive discourse surrounding the hijab and its meanings. Qualitative data is collected through in-depth interviews with Muslim women in Western societies. Thematic analysis, a robust method for identifying patterns and themes, is applied to the collected data using NVivo 12 for management and analysis. A novel aspect of this research is the application of the Hijab Identity Matrix framework designed to encapsulate the multifaceted relationship between the hijab, identity, and sociocultural factors. Comprising three interconnected dimensions aligned with the research objectives, this framework offers a unique lens for comprehending the complex phenomenon, structuring the analysis and interpretation of qualitative data. The principal findings provide insights into the diverse meanings attributed to the hijab by Muslim women, the role of sociocultural influences in shaping these meanings, and the intersection of the hijab with identity and belonging in Western societies. This study contributes to existing literature by offering a comprehensive perspective on the hijab beyond its religious connotations, enriching our understanding of broader sociocultural dynamics.

Purpose: To examine philosophical stances underpinning medical identity and assess the conceptual relationship between physician, medical practice, and culture.Argument: Medical identity is about the ideals and moral positions that physicians take when justifying themselves. Medical identity is the study of the sociocultural paragons that conceptually underlie the phenomenology of physician’s coming to take themselves as autonomous social agents. The paper relies on Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit and investigates dilemmas pertaining to first objectivist versus subjectivist views and second hedonistic versus sentimentalist approaches to medical identity. The sociocultural philosophical analysis of medical identity can shed light on what it means conceptually for a physician to harbor beliefs associated with her being taken to be an autonomous professional.Conclusion: Medical identity should be analyzed with reference to literature, philosophy, and medical practice in order for the physician to a reflective position, which is both scientifically rational and subjectively meaningful.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the sociocultural foundations of the Russian, ethnic, confessional and regional identity of the North Caucasus student youth. The influence of the formation and positivity of these identities on the nature of interethnic relations, the social distance between main ethno-confessional groups and the risks of conflicting identities is analyzed. The results of sociological survey in 2022 showed a high degree of severity and positivity of the sociocultural foundations of the Russian, ethnic and regional identity. Significant variability was found in the importance of emotional and psychological connection with the main social groups (ethnos, confession, country, region) varied from one ethnic group to another. These unifying sociocultural meanings-symbols occupy an important place in the structure of the Russian identity of young people. Among youth, attitudes towards interethnic harmony, tolerance, interaction and integration prevail. The social distance between students who identify themselves with the main ethno-confessional groups is insignificant. Respondents' assessments confirm the trend towards depoliticization of ethnicity and a decrease in the conflict nature of the main macro-group identities. At the same time, the conflictogenic potential of the sociocultural foundations of young people's self-awareness is preserved.

This article explores how issues of power and identity play out in mathematical practices and offers a perspective on how we might better understand the sociopolitical nature of teaching and learning mathematics. We present data from studies of mathematics teaching and learning in out-of-school settings, offering a sociocultural, then a sociopolitical analysis (attending to race, identity, and power), noting the value of the latter. In doing so, we develop a set of theoretical tools that move us from the sociocultural to the sociopolitical in studies of mathematics teaching and learning.

Full textAbstract:
This article is devoted to the problem of multiple identities and the specifics of their interaction in modern conditions. Plurality of identities, on the one hand, is considered a normal phenomenon that explains complex social communications and allows an individual to optimally participate in a diverse modern social life, applying to various situations. On the other hand, the authors note that in conditions of social, political, economic, and cultural mobility, the phenomenon of identity also turns out to be in an unstable state, which is aggravated by the fact that the phenomenon of identity itself is not completely static. If a few decades ago an equivalent diversity of identities implied their interaction, multicultural polyphony, where a plurality of identities could be realized as much as possible, then at the beginning of the twenty-first century, a request for hierarchization and ordering of identities arises in society. In the article, the authors attempt to determine by what criteria it is possible to build a hierarchy of identities, on which social and cultural events, accents, and preferences this hierarchy will depend, whether it will be accepted by the whole society, or whether it will require taking into account group subcultural specifics. The authors note the desire for the dominance of civil and civilizational identities based on cultural identity as a deep foundation. Civil identity in a multinational state with ethnic, cultural, and economic diversity among regions presupposes a strong consolidating resource. The needs of society for a clear definition of the civilizational vectors of modern Russia make the question of defining civilizational identity one of the most demanded. The article also examines how purposeful social and institutional formation of identities and their conscious alignment into a hierarchical pyramid is possible.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. In case of serious social upheaval, the ability of social groups to consolidate (determined by the sociocultural identity stability of group members and by the basic values that underlie this identity) is of particular importance for the preservation of society. In this regard, studying the structure of the sociocultural identity of young people not only formally but also value and meaning-wise is extremely relevant, since understanding its content allows predicting the behavior of social actors, competently organizing identity formation and correcting the problems that arise. The study aims to identify valuemeaning complexes that form the basis of the sociocultural identity of higher school students. Research materials. The study involved students of V.I. Vernadsky Crimean Federal University (Crimea). Methods: 1) projective study of associative complexes, based on the method of free associations using graphic stimulus material (200 informants); 2) psychological testing ‘Who am I?’ by M. Kuhn and T. McPartland (200 informants); 3) sociological survey (1000 respondents). Results. The study revealed that the sociocultural identity of students involves a sharp distinction between ‘near’ and ‘far’ social space. The meaning content of the images ‘state’ and ‘society’ shows that for a significant proportion of respondents these are perceived as sources of external coercion, violence and subordination (51.4% and 41.5%, respectively). The value ‘Motherland’ is closely related to family, comfort and care (15.9% of the total number of associations), making it a value of the ‘near’ social space; however, associative complexes around ‘state’ and ‘society’ can have a negative transformational impact on this socially significant value. Conclusion. The results of the study can be used by psychologists and teachers implementing educational programs in higher educational institutions and can prove useful in drawing up a general concept of educational work with the young generation at the level of an educational institution.

This paper aims at exploring how identity is construed in children’s literature and how the powerful legitimize to identify the textbook consumers by exercising their influence. Drawing on Systemic-functional Linguistics (Halliday and Matthiessen, 2014), particularly Genre theory (Martin and Rose, 2008), it examines how English language textbooks used in Pakistan are written to construe, a project, and normalize a particular sociocultural identity. The sociocultural positioning being projected through the textbooks can be norm-conforming, contesting or can suggest otherwise. The majority of the students in Pakistan are mandated to learn state governed textbooks which serve them build up a sociopolitical identity. Therefore, underlying semiotic modalities realizing a perspective are pertinent to be explored in order to unfold discursive strategies for constructing identity. It is widely acknowledged that any educational curriculum is the most effective tool to construct and circulate a reality. Therefore, challenging any literacy pedagogy embedding particular outcomes can help transforming educational practices across the school curriculum (Martin and Rose, 2012). The data comprises Punjab English textbooks for the government schools. The findings suggest that the intriguing intricacies of textbook discourses can be successfully examined through analyzing linguistic patterns and that the textbooks construe sociocultural identity. The findings also provide insightful implications for discourse analysis based on SFL by contributing explorations of identity.

Full textAbstract:
Sociocultural narratives inextricably form people’s self-identification or the identity of a group. It is essential to learn about their History through storytelling, whether from books or oral traditions. Oral traditions can be used to track the sociocultural behaviors of the past and those of the present and their rationale. Additionally, Oral Traditions help one understand and become conscious of the context around a specific practice. In sociocultural views, narrative can serve as a starting point for identifying a suitable framework for explaining how people acquire their identity by learning about History. The media can tell societal stories through songs, movies, animations, and even other forms of storytelling. The filmmaker reveals to his audience the identity that has been forgotten or the unrecorded History behind it by making his film based on the sociocultural practices or beliefs of the specific group or individual. The present research aims to scrutinize the role of sociocultural narratives in helping individuals and groups discover their identities by illustrating the relationship between sociocultural viewpoints and oral traditions in both Literature and Media.

Full textAbstract:
The socio-cultural cross-border is a space of interaction between cultures, which results in special social, cultural, socio-anthropological changes. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the fact that the socio-cultural space in which a person is located is constantly changing, exposed to outside influences, filled with new symbols, meanings, which is expressed in the transformation of the foundations of human life, cultural values, changes in his identity and the emergence of new personality types (“a marginal person”, “a transboundary person”), in the very ontological foundations of a person, changes in the boundaries of the space of his own identification, social relationships. The essence of the problem of human identity in the cross-border area is that, on the one hand, the person himself becomes cross-border, on the other hand, the cross-border area requires him to have a multidirectional orientation in self-identification. The aim of the work is to trace the influence of a multilayer transboundary space and the corresponding factors on a person’s identity, and to identify the types of personality and corresponding identity within the transboundary. The work uses dialectical, systemic, axiological, anthropological research methods, which together allowed a comprehensive approach to the analysis of the problem. As a result of the study of the influence of cross-border areas on human identity, some of its types were identified: cross-border, marginal, and transit ones. The work draws the following conclusions. A feature of identification in a transboundary space is its possible “transit” nature, which is determined by the search for new cultural forms close to a person and the constant transition in this regard from one form to another. Axiological involvement plays an important role in the identification of a person within a transboundary space, what he is guided by, what is important for him. Value orientations as the foundations of identity can be viewed through the prism of such positions as “our own-someone else’s”, “close-alien”, “I / we-they”, etc. The similarity of material and spiritual elements of culture, shared values serve as the basis for the formation of such meaningful characteristics of the transboundary sociocultural space as identity and self-awareness.

The paper interprets phenomenon of identity as a process of conscious and unconscious acceptance and understanding by a person of oneself, one’s own characteristics, beliefs, values, role in society, as well as recognition of one’s belonging to a particular community on ethnic, national, religious, gender grounds. Sociocultural identity comes as a result of personality development, formation of completeness and integrity of one’s image, it has a temporary characteristic, changes and develops during a person’s life under the influence of experience, education, cultural context and other factors. In general, identity acts as a mechanism for the formation of a sense of identity of the individual to oneself in the course of analysis and assessment of the image of ‘I’. The process can be caused by both external socio-cultural factors, such as migration, cultural assimilation, changes in social and cultural values and traditions, and internal factors, generated by immaturity, infantilism, insufficient integrity of the personality, its internal contradictions, conflicts, doubts. The intrapersonal conflict that arises in this case can be expressed in the form of various symptoms and emotional states: depression, anxiety, sense of loss, psychological tension, internal contradictions and doubts that a person experiences in relation to one’s own personality, one’s values, worldview or life path. Identity deformations are one of the main reasons giving rise to intrapersonal conflict, as a special state characterized by the presence of polar positions in a person, indicating a struggle of motives, meanings, values in relation to understanding and accepting one’s own image of the ‘I’.

The article examines the traditions of the students' identity analyzing in the process of learning a second language in the psychological and sociocultural schools. The psychological school emphasizes the positive role of learning a second language in the development of cultural identity, recognizes the decisive influence of stable psychological characteristics and social factors on the students' identity and relies on sociocultural approaches in the study of identity. The sociocultural school pays more attention to the influence of the social context and its interaction with students in the process of learning a second language. In the psychological school, the term “self-identity” is often used as a “non-linguistic result” parallel to the “linguistic result” of learning. Learning a second language affects the self-identity of students, demonstrates the positive role of the influence of the appropriate culture, as well as the influence of stable psychological characteristics and social factors on the students' identity. Sociocultural school often uses the term “social identity” and similar terms. At the same time, it is believed that identity is neither the result of the influence of a social situation nor the product of personal internal intentions, but is a multidimensional and changeable process in social, cultural and historical conditions, as well as in situations of interpersonal interaction. The psychological school focuses on the individual psychological characteristics of people learning a second language, and the sociocultural school focuses on the impact of social situations on students and the features of their interaction. The two research schools complement each other, while they have in common attention to the personality as a whole and recognition of the diversity and variability of recorded personal changes.

Abstract This article examines the role of critical reading in a racial literacy-focused composition curriculum. The author draws on student-produced data to demonstrate how the racial literacy curriculum prepares students to explore the situatedness of language, how individual positionalities influence the construction and interpretation of text, and how sociocultural ideologies are represented and disseminated through seemingly innocuous or objective reporting. Broadly, this article offers strategies for teaching critical reading to help teachers of writing improve students’ rhetorical awareness and engage them more fully as participants in a textually mediated society.

This paper aims at exploring the evolution of religion and its relevance in contemporary society. It focuses on the journey of Sanatana Dharma, popularly known as Hinduism: how misbalance in religious and sociocultural life led it to divisive nature, and becoming a victim of hypocrisy and blind faith resulting in repulsion; how it became a strong political tool; how it affects identity of people; and why people prefer to be called humanists instead of being its followers in order to transcend their religious identity. The theories of the origin of religion have been explored along with some religious scriptures and their cultural significance in order to better understand the present relevance of religion.

Questions regarding bilingual education are examined through the lens of Canada’s experience in the Province of Quebec, with particular emphasis on the social group (majority, minority) of the children and the schooling context. Several distinct approaches to bilingual education are identified and discussed, varying from an assimilation approach to a multicultural one. Early immersion in a second language is seen to have positive effects on school achievement as well as on mastery of the language. Canada’s experience may have important implications for other bilingual and multilingual-multicultural societies such as Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, and a number of African countries with a history of colonialism.
