Abstract:
Rapid social, economic, technological changes in the country leave their mark on each member of the society; alter their tastes, expectations, and needs. The visitors of the Yerevan American Corner are not an exception. Thus, a necessity of a detailed analysis of the visitors’ demands and behavior arises, in order to amend or expand the realm of the service, to raise the popularity of the corner and to attract more visitors. With this purpose, we offer to conduct polls and interviews among users of the American Corner, to do a specific social analysis of programs and services. Overall, 550 people will take part in the survey. The analyses will help to understand the attitude of patrons, non-patrons and random visitors towards the Yerevan American Corner (its space, resources, activities, projects, services, technical devices, and staff). This will also help to evaluate the effectiveness of current activities and services, such as clubs, courses, public talks and various meetings.

Abstract:
AbstractAs a case study in the proliferation of global rankings, we examine the initiation, construction of, and response to the Access to Medicine Index, which ranks pharmaceutical companies according to their respective contribution to access to medicine for developing countries. Since it has served as the model for constructing global rankings in the fields of nutrition, seeds, mining, possibly in the future, oil, seafood, mobile internet, and agricultural commodities, and it serves as a blueprint for the development of corporate sustainability benchmarks in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, its significance goes well beyond public health. From an economic-sociological perspective we argue, first, that rankings can be conceived as symbolic classifications that serve predominantly as market-based coordination devices. To understand the proliferation of global rankings, we argue, secondly, that they are an integral part of the changing balance of power in the domain of global public health consisting of a historical shift from international organizations as the central mode of governance and coordination to a more decentralized and diversified global field structure. This global field is formed by an increasing number and variety of actors, but lacks a central decision-making body. The case of the Access to Medicine Index suggests that a historical-sociological field perspective has analytical advantages over both the micro-analysis of socio-technical devices and macro-level approaches to issues of governance in contemporary capitalism.

Abstract:
The text focuses on one of the elements belonging to the surveillance society – surveillance with the use of electronic tools. The authors attempt to answer the following questions. What types of negative phenomena are produced and intensified by electronic surveillance technologies? How deep is the state of the „vulnerability” of modern societies, what are the possibilities of surveillance devices? Is it possible to practically oppose them, how and what are the limits? What is the genesis of these phenomena and what future scenarios can be sketched based on the anticipation of observed trends? A set of research questions defined in this way required both sociological and technical perspectives at the same time. The authors recognize the negative phenomena associated with electronic surveillance: escalation, professionalization, institutionalization and normalization.

Abstract:
This article is devoted to the problem of modes of interaction between parents and children in conditions of using digital gadgets. The relevance of the proposed study is that in the last few years, new media technologies are being adapted to specific groups. In recent years, the use of gadgets for parents with children of different ages is spreading. These gadgets monitor the child’s physiological parameters and inform parents about them. Using the methodology of STS, we can say that the introduction of technological artifacts in the daily life of child-parent relations gives rise to the problem of disentanglement - increasing the number of technical intermediaries of interaction. These gadgets, like any other technological device, are a part of the “embodied ideology”. This means that technologies outstrip the development of the users’ interests, their attitudes, motives and practices in a particular way, direct and prescribe actions to their users. The study was funded by RFBR according to research project No. 18-011-00692 Parenthood in the era of “smart things”: a sociological analysis.

Abstract:
various higher educational establishments, in preparation for introduction of mobile technology into educational process. Therefore it permits to diagnose the status of the theme.
 Design/methodology/approaches: The applied methodology consists of the theoretical analysis of scientific literature on problems of mobile learning of students. The concept «mobile learning» was categorically characterized as a component of more general category – «educational technology». The sociological research among students of higher educational institutions was conducted and recommendations were made.
 Findings: During the theoretical analysis and the practical research it has been revealed that students use the mobile device to educational process insufficiently, considering the high level of its technical facilities. Nevertheless, almost all of the students are ready to introduction of mobile learning as the main form of education. The received results show that mobile learning effectively takes root into educational life of students.
 Originality / Value: According to the opinion of the authors, the use of smartphones and laptops in the educational process will begin to increase year by year in the nearest future and give to student an opportunity of a choice of technology of education.

Abstract:
Introduction. The development and application of medical robotics, medical robotic devices, automated technical systems in the field of health care are already quite successful and have great potential. Such large-scale technological changes inevitably actualize the social roles of law, that should properly settle, protect and guide the development of nascent social relations, which until recently occurred everywhere in a kind of regulatory vacuum. Material and methods. The methodological basis of the study included general scientific methods (dialectical, logical, systemic, historical, sociological, statistical) and private scientific methods of legal science (formal-legal, historical-legal and comparative-legal). The empirical basis of the study was Russian and foreign regulatory legal acts and law enforcement practice, as well as legal doctrine. Results. Based on the comparative legal study a legal definition of the medical robots and various options for their classification, among them a special one, including surgical robots, robots used in restorative medicine, rehabilitation of immobilized patients, nursing and care robots, have been developed. Cyborgs are biological organisms containing mechanical or electronic components are allocated to a special group. Legal mechanisms for ensuring security and cybersecurity in this area are highlighted. The necessity of more flexible legal regulation of personal data concerning the health of citizens and medical confidentiality under new technological conditions is justified. Discussion. Legal regulation of the medical robots should be of a staged nature. General norms of sectoral significance can be formulated at later stages. At the moment, it is more rational to direct efforts to determine the legal regime of certain types of created artificial intelligence systems in the healthcare sector. Conclusion. The legal concept of robotics in healthcare should take a significant place in a wide range of scientific studies of the development of new technologies for the benefit, not to the detriment, of a person.

Material and methods: Because of bibliographic, epidemiological, medical-statistical, analytical methods the research has investigated the problems of healthy aging, tendencies in population health of the population of Ukraine of senior age groups during 2000-2017, features and tendencies of health of a sample contingent of urban population of elderly age according to appeals in health care facilities during 2009-2019. The use of the sociological method, the self-evaluation of elderly people of their own health, characteristics of lifestyle and medical activity are determined, the needs of older people in medical and social services were assessed. Results: Negative tendencies to increase during 2000-2017 the prevalence of pathology among the population older than working age by 22.8%, including blood diseases in 2 times, endocrine system – in 1.8 times, urogenital system – by 1.5 times, digestive organs – by 1.4 times, tumors and nervous system – by 1.3 times. Among the urban elderly population, the prevalence of sensory diseases, including ear and eye diseases, endocrine disorders, injuries and poisonings, has increased, and mental health indicators have deteriorated. The sociological survey found a low level of self-esteem (31.5±3.5 per 100 had health problems, 10.1±2.3 are significant). Self-medication was practiced by 76.4±3.2 per 100 respondents, 74.2±3.3 were not followed or they violated the doctor's recommendations. 56.2 ±3.7 per 100 respondents had physical examinations in the non-right time 29.7±3.4 had not it. There was a significant prevalence of risk factors, including hypodynamics (21.9±3.1 per 100), tobacco use (29.8±3.4), malnutrition (37.1±3.6), overweight (obesity) (32, 6±3.5), arterial hypertension (37.6±3.6), hypercholesterolemia (28.7±3.4), glucosemia 16.3±2.8). The research has discovered the needs of older people in health care and social services, inter alia in preventive counseling (65.2±3.6 per 100), the introduction of electronic technologies in health care (68.5±3.5), information educational services on health issues (67.4±3.5), provision of services in hospitals at home (66.3±3.5), in increasing the availability of rehabilitation (43.8±3.7), specialized counseling (34.3±3.6) and emergency medical care (16.2±2.8), improvement of socio-economic determinants (78.0±3.1), introduction of activities (48.3±3.7), joint training programs for older people (42.1±3.7), the development of certain skills, the use of technical means, assistive devices (67.4±3.5), the formation of a conducive to better health environment (58, 4±3.7). Conclusions: The low level of the elderly people's health, the tendency to increase the burden of disease, the prevalence of risk factors for disease and low medical activity lead to significant needs for medical and social services of preventive, treatment-diagnostic, rehabilitation, improving socio-economic determinants, measures to reduce social isolation.

Abstract:
The article discusses the problems that arise in connection with the crimes against state and public security committed by use of computer and network technologies. This topic is becoming relevant because some states have already experienced the effects of combat computer viruses, which can be regarded as waging war using cyber weapons. The most famous example is the attack by the Stuxnet computer virus on an Iranian uranium enrichment plant. The virus was created specifically to disable industrial control systems. The use of unmanned ground and air vehicles to carry out terrorist acts is of particular danger. The Russian military in Syria is constantly confronted with terrorist attacks: the Khmeimim aerospace forces base is regularly attacked with unmanned air vehicles - drones. Terrorist acts with the use of computer and network technologies are no less dangerous. The destructive potential of cyberterrorism is determined by the widespread computerization of state and public life, the implementation of projects to create smart cities, including smart transportation, as well as the intensive development of the Internet of things. The purpose of the article is to analyze new criminal threats to state and public security, as well as to study high-tech ways of committing crimes such as sabotage, terrorist acts, and other crimes of a terrorist nature. The cost of their consequences for society is very high, and criminals do not always need to attack social objects directly - it is enough to spread panic among the population using online media, social networks and websites of authorities of various levels, after obtaining illegal access to them. The article describes some of the techniques already used to commit crimes of sabotage and terrorism. The authors draw attention to the priority of cybersecurity both for engineers of devices with elements of artificial intelligence, and for lawmakers who should pay attention to methods of technical forecasting when developing legal norms aimed at prevention of new ways of committing such crimes. When writing the article, the authors used a wide range of Russian and foreign sources of legal, statistical, sociological and other information. The authors used such research methods as analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction, formal legal method as well as comparative legal method.

Abstract:
One function of language is to communicate substantive information, but that is not its only function—sometimes not even its primary function. The criminal and drug class adopt an argot unintelligible to law abiding citizens, and that cipher function is one of the purposes of that language. Teenagers of any era adopt a vocabulary that shows that they are hip or hep or with it or cool. Such languages are often rich in metaphor and at their root poetic. It is fascinating to investigate these elusive and protean sub-languages, because they demonstrate with modern instances how language has evolved and how it continues to evolve. Our present focus, with technical sub-languages reveals sociological functions of language that transcend mere transfer of substantive information. Technical language would seem to be at the opposite pole from criminals' argot or teenagers' cool slang. We might expect it to exhibit that so-called purer function of transferring information, little affected by sociological factors. Nonetheless, we find one sociological feature, the shibboleth, acting widely throughout technical fields. This is our current topic.

Перед группой авторов: Н.Т. Джайнакбаевым, А.Б.Альмухановой, А.К. Ахметбаевой, Н.А. Малинниковой, З.А. Лигай, Г.М. Аденовой, А.Г.Сейтжановой, А.К. Байжумановой стояла цель - оценить степень удовлетворённости персонала отделений лучевой диагностики, путём анализа проведённого социологического опроса. В исследовании участвовали сотрудники отделений лучевой диагностики государственных медицинских организаций г. Алматы, задействованных в оказании медицинской помощи больным с COVID-19. Участниками анкетирования стали граждане старше 18 лет без выборки по национальности и этнической принадлежности, а так же половым признакам, давшие своё добровольное согласие. Критерии для исключения- отсутствие согласия на анкетирование. По результатам социологического опроса сотрудников отделений были сделаны следующие выводы. В отделениях работают как опытные специалисты с большим стажем, так и молодые врачи, что обеспечивает преемственность знаний. Все сотрудники своевременно проходят курсы повышения квалификации, организацию и информативность которых высоко оценивают. Врачи и средний мед персонал регулярно читают профессиональную литературу. Рабочие места (кабинеты) соответствует установленным санитарно-гигиеническим требованиям, как до введения карантинно-ограничительных мероприятий, так и во время. Регулярно проводятся технические осмотры аппаратуры рентгенологического кабинета, КТ и МРТ, своевременно проходит радиационный контроль. Все заключения печатаются на компьютерах, заносятся в электронную базу клиник. В свою очередь следует обратить внимание на отсутствие уверенности сотрудников в уровне знаний нормативно-правовой документации (приказов, постановлений). Редкое проведение профилактического технического обслуживания аппаратов УЗД. Обеспечение кабинетов расходными материалами- не в полном объёме. Кроме того, специалистами отделений была отмечена высокая стоимость высокотехнологичных методов исследования. Низкая удовлетворенность персонала клиники организацией работы отделения лучевой диагностики, связанна с увеличением рабочей нагрузки и низкой материальной мотивацией. Полученные сведения помогут организаторам здравоохранения увидеть и обратить внимание на выявленные недостатки в организации работы отделений визуальной диагностики, что позволит найти пути оптимизации рабочих процессов, повысить удовлетворенность персонала отделения лучевой диагностики, а значит повысить результативность и производительность отделения в целом. In front of a group of authors: N.T. Dzhaynakbaev, A.B. Almukhanova, A.K. Akhmetbaeva, N.A. Malinnikova, Z.A. Ligay, G.M. Adenova, A.G. Seitzhanova, A.K. Bayzhumanova's goal was to assess the degree of satisfaction of the personnel of the departments of radiation diagnostics, by analyzing the sociological survey conducted. The study involved employees of the departments of radiation diagnostics of state medical organizations in Almaty, involved in the provision of medical care to patients with COVID-19. The survey participants were citizens over 18 years old without sampling by nationality and ethnicity, as well as gender, who gave their voluntary consent. The criteria for exclusion are the lack of consent to the survey. Based on the results of a sociological survey of employees of the departments, the following conclusions were made. Both experienced specialists with extensive experience and young doctors work in the departments, which ensures the continuity of knowledge. All employees timely undergo advanced training courses, the organization and information content of which is highly appreciated. Most of the respondents did not encounter any difficulties. Doctors and nurses regularly read professional literature. Workplaces (offices) comply with the established sanitary and hygienic requirements, both before the introduction of quarantine-restrictive measures, and during. Technical examinations of the equipment of the X-ray room, CT and MRI are regularly carried out, radiation control is carried out in a timely manner. All conclusions are printed on computers, entered into the electronic database of clinics. In turn, attention should be paid to the lack of confidence of employees in the level of knowledge of regulatory documents (orders, resolutions). Rare preventive maintenance of ultrasound devices. Provision of offices with consumables - not in full. In addition, the specialists of the departments noted the high cost of high-tech research methods. Low satisfaction of the clinic staff with the organization of the work of the radiology department, associated with an increase in the workload and low material motivation. The information obtained will help healthcare organizers to see and pay attention to the identified shortcomings in the organization of the work of the departments of visual diagnostics, which will allow finding ways to optimize work processes, increase the satisfaction of the personnel of the department of radiology diagnostics, and therefore increase the efficiency and productivity of the department as a whole.

Abstract:
What is the problem? • Lack of culture and legal grounds for providing open and full access to information on biomedical research (BMR) conducted in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. • Lack of a unified on-line platform that provides the ability to search for specified parameters and extract information in full-text format and in an accessible language about completed and ongoing BMRs. • Low availability of information about BMR held in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan for the scientific and professional medical community, health policy makers and the population. Policy options Option 1. Creation of a legal basis for registration of BMR in a unified national register, providing open and full access to information about BMR held on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan, by: o Securing the requirement for mandatory registration of BMR in the National BMR Register in the regulatory legal acts, which determine the procedure for conducting BMR, preclinical trials (PCT) and clinical trials (CT) of drugs and medical devices; o Inclusion of the requirement for mandatory registration in the National BMR Register in contracts concluded with scientific, sociological and analytical performers in the field of health care; o The conclusion by the Ministry of Health of an agreement with the editors of scientific journals published in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan that all published results of BMR can be published when the BMR data is included in the National BMR Register and (or) an authoritative international register. o Elaboration of mechanisms for retrospective filling of the National BMR Register by organizations that conducted BMR in the last 10 years. Option 2. Development and launch of an online resource of the National BMR Register, which provides access for various groups of users and provides automation of the processes of registering BMR, search and analysis of information contained in the register by: o Creation of an online resource of the National BMR Register in accordance with the recommendations of the ICMJE, with filling in all data included in the authoritative registers of the CT (for example, ClinicalTrials.gov), PCT (for example, PreclinicalTrials.eu) and other registers of the BMR providing free (on state, Russian, English) and full-text access to all registered BMR; o Development of instructions for maintaining the National BMR Register, training modules on working with the register, conducting a wide information campaign among all interested parties; o Development of on-line platform for the Unified system for submitting applications for CT in integration with the National BMR Register (functioning on the principle of a “single window” for licensing procedures, information support, reporting, etc.); o The institutionalization of the mechanism of the Unified system for submitting applications for CTs by forming a Coordination Center for Clinical Trials and fixing a new mechanism for accepting applications in the Rules for conducting clinical trials of medicines and medical devices. • Option 3. Development of international cooperation in the field of BMR registration, by: o Submission of an application for the inclusion of the National BMR Register as a primary register in ICTRP (sending to WHO a profile and technical questionnaire, letters of support from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan); o Ensuring regular transmission of data from the National BMR Register to ICTRP; o Development of the practice of registration of BMRs conducted on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan in international registries (ClinicalTrials.gov, PreclinicalTrials.eu, etc.). Vision on the implementation of policy options In assessing the feasibility of implementing the proposed policy options, taking into account the existing barriers and opportunities, we conclude that all three policy options complement each other. However, given the differences in options in the direction of actions, the resources and methods used, these policy options can give a more significant achievement of the goal of increasing the availability and openness of information on the conducted BMR in the Republic of Kazakhstan when they are combined.

Abstract:
The paper considers immersive technologies in education. Augmented reality classifications are provided depending on the data presentation methods, the type of AR devices, according to the type of information provided by the augmented reality, and the areas of use. The importance of augmented reality in education, in particular for the support and development of STEAM education in school, is determined. An example of a STEAM project for a secondary school using augmented reality is given. Formulation of the problem. The need for research due to various factors impact on education, namely increased requirements for competitive youth, pandemic caused COVID-19, increasing the role of distance and online learning, digitalization of various human activities, giving special importance to digital literacy, inquiry-based science education, project-based learning, challenge-based learning, etc. A significant problem arises in the process of organizing practical and laboratory classes in non-humanities, where the formation of competencies takes place in the process of using laboratory equipment and inter-action with technical facilities. Therefore, the main task of our study is to replace real laboratory equipment with virtual, which is implemented by virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR) and is one of the possible approaches in terms of distance learning, STEAM education approach and quarantine. Materials and methods. To achieve the purpose of our study we used the following methods: a systematic and comparative analysis of pedagogical, psychological, philosophical, sociological findings, methodological and specialized literature; analysis of the pedagogical experience of using the AR for STEAM approach in school; synthesis and generalization to formulate the main points of the study; interviews and questionnaires of teachers about their understanding and attitude to augmented reality as a means of supporting STEAM education in school; interpretation of the research results. Results. Teachers were interviewed about their attitudes and understanding of AR to support STEAM education and to identify the main augmented reality functions in conducting STEAM projects in schools. Conclusions are made on the attitude of teachers to the use of augmented reality to support and develop STEAM education and the main augmented reality functions, which teachers consider the most important for students to implement STEAM projects. Conclusions. AR applications can enhance the learning process, learning motivation and effectiveness; help teachers to overlay information, visuals, and different forms of content on an ordinary chalkboard, providing contextual and relevant results, to enhance learning; improve student performance, help focus the user's attention on specific tasks. AR bring significant specifics to the teachers' professional activities and student learning, to the transformation of the content of education. AR provide the formation and development of a new information method of presentation and assimilation of material, are high-tech didactic tools. Our further research is the creation of algorithms for the use of AR for lessons and projects using the STEAM approach, which will improve the quality of education at general education institutions.

Abstract:
Based on the analysis of various theoretical positions in the framework of modern sociological theory, the article attempts to identify and describe the most important features of modern society. These features result from scientific and technical innovations of the first two decades of the 21st century, which are unprecedented in their scale and speed. The first part of the article discusses the factors that determine peculiarities of the observed social trends and changes. Further, within the Triple Revolution concept, these factors receive a sociological interpretation. It is concluded that modernity can be read through its basic characteristics such as: growing complexity of the social system, mobility, network expansion, increased connectedness and digitalization. These characteristics of modernity demonstrate the onset of the era of digital society.

Abstract:
Railway traffic control is performed by the man with the use of specific technical means. Technical development and wide functionality of railway traffic control systems contribute to the fact that one deals with many types of devices, created with the help of various technologies. That is why the maintenance of the devices and systems presents a big challenge for railway infrastructure administrators, and it needs to be supported by technical diagnostics. The need for diagnostics of railway traffic control devices results from their destruction process which is related to their lifespan, use intensity, technical service quality or operation quality level. Gathered in the diagnostics process information concerning changes of the technical condition of the devices allow effective restoring to their original state thanks to regeneration. That is why academic research is being carried out and actions connected to implementing new diagnostic methods in the railway traffic control area are taken. The article presents chosen railway traffic control devices diagnostic systems.

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to describe new technical devices for differential application of fertilizers taking into account heterogeneity of the thickness of the humus horizon. Modern fertilizer application technologies are based on information obtained from agrochemical soil surveys, space monitoring data and the NDVI index. At the same time, all these technologies do not take into account physical and mechanical properties of the soil which influence soil fertility and productivity. The article presents data on the relationship between soil hardness and thickness of the humus horizon which have a strong inverse correlation of the -0.7-0.85 order. Based on these data, technical devices used for differential fertilizer application were designed taking into account power of the humus horizon.

Abstract:
This paper draws upon the sociological tradition of language analysis, specifically Sacks’ work on membership categorisation devices. The paper argues that processes of evaluating and assigning membership of categories within given collectivities may be identified as operating across diverse social contexts. The contexts selected for analysis here include a formal written text, an interview, and a cabaret performance. The participants range from senior University academics to drag queens. It is concluded that the maintenance of social identity boundaries is not just dependent on ‘knowing’ the status of one’s own category membership, but upon accomplishing this membership through the interactional work of hierarchical categorisations in writing and talk.

Abstract:
Special Devices for Regional Anaesthesia The rapid growth of regional anaesthesia in the last 20 years has resulted in an increasing number of technical devices. Technical resources play a very considerable role in modern regional anaesthesia and they are being introduced to facilitate the quality performance of this type of anaesthesia. The task of this survey is to summarise the most important technical devices currently utilised for regional anaesthesia and to provide a review of the history of their introduction. Technical devices for performing regional anaesthesia could be divided in seven groups: 1) neurostimulation and simple needles and catheters; 2) neurostimulator with transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TENS); 3) ultrasonograph with a device to fix the probe; 4) devices for injection of local anaesthetics, such as perfusors, patient controlled analgesia systems and elastomeric infusion systems; 5) arm, leg and instruments supports; 6) regional anaesthesia injection monitor and data register devices, and 7) catheter fastenings and auxiliary materials. It is recommended that all of the apparatus applied should be classified to make it easier to acquire more immediate and understanding, and be easy to add this knowledge to the overall checklist before starting anaesthesia. The history of the introduction of technical equipment shows how much time was necessary for the development of modern regional anaesthesia methods.

Abstract:
Background. In this article we have studied the results of a sociological survey of young people living in Omsk, users of modern electronic devices and their impact on the organs and systems of the human body.
 Objectives ― to study the frequency of using electronic devices in various spheres of life of Omsk residents; to assess the influence of electromagnetic radiation of a personal computer on the human body; establish the frequency of visits to the dentist for the purpose of a preventive examination.
 Methods. An electronic survey (Google Form) of 318 people was conducted in order to study issues related to electronic devices, general and dental health. The questionnaire consists of 25 questions, conventionally divided into 4 thematic groups.
 Results. Out of 318 people 80% of survey participants work on a personal computer every day for 2-3 hours without a break. 95% of respondents are aware of the negative effects of electromagnetic radiation from electronic devices. 52.5% of the respondents do not comply with the recommendations regulated by the Russian Federation when working on a PC; 11% have no information about their existence. 80.8% of respondents visit a dentist 1-2 times a year for a preventive examination.
 Conclusions. According to the results of a sociological survey in the format of a questionnaire, the majority of respondents work on a personal computer every day, not observing hygiene recommendations. It has been proven that a long stay at a personal computer is unsafe for human organs and systems. It is necessary to develop dental recommendations for the prevention of the negative impact of electromagnetic radiation from a personal computer on the state of the oral cavity.

Abstract:
AbstractTechnically assisted rehabilitation of mobility after stroke has been well established for several years. There is good evidence for the use of end-effector devices, exoskeletons and treadmill training with and without body weight support. New developments provide the possibility for functional training during mobilization, even in intensive care units. Mobile exoskeleton devices have been developed, but their clinical effects need still to be evaluated. All devices should not only focus on increasing the number of repetitions, but also include motivational aspects such as virtual reality environments. Hygienic aspects impose a special challenge. All devices should be integrated into a rational and clearly-defined therapy concept.

Abstract:
The article considers the long path of the development of sociology of culture as a special sociological theory within the system of Russian sociological knowledge. The author describes the fifty-year period of the empirical enrichment of sociology of culture; identifies main research issues within cultural and educational activities (clubs, museums, parks, groups of artistic and technical creativity in cities and villages); provides an overview of key achievements in the sociological study of theater, cinema and the media in the 1970-1980s. It was during this period that the basic directions of the sociological study of cultural life were formed and consolidated the efforts of sociologists: planning, forecasting and managing various types of cultural institutions; scientific planning of cultural development of the city, village, and region; forecasting the development of art and its different types; social indicators of the development and management of artistic culture; economy of culture - improvement of its material and technical base, pricing, efficiency; interaction of different types and forms of artistic culture, their relationship with art; analysis of the cultural life of different social-demographic groups; development of the theoretical-methodological foundations of sociology of culture, its self-determination as a special sociological theory. The author also considers such aspects of the spiritual life as musical culture and features of leisure activities and describes the multicultural state of the contemporary Russian society.

Abstract:
The article examines the interaction between humans and complex digital technology; the relationship between humans and modern technologies. The peculiarity of the approach is that technical devices are taken not at the stage of their development, production or sale but as an element of the man-made environment surrounding a person (“technohabitus”, sharedspace of the “smart” environment of a modern person). Neutral technical characteristics of the device are manifested in the system of specific human needs, lifestyle, social and professional factors - in the user's existence. Optimal interaction of a technical device with a user presupposes the removal of a specific alienation between man and technology. Technical characteristics are reduced to specific ways of entering the device into the digital environment of human existence. On the other hand, the reduction of the living mind to countable, algorithmic schemes is inevitable. It is not about the degradation of reason, but about its hybrid connection with the logic of engineering devices and objects. The physical substrate (das Gestell) of consciousness expands beyond the human body, uniting with the dense “technohabitus” that surrounds the individual as his personal noosphere. This issue unfolds in the article towards the philosophical and methodological problems of the highest forms of digital devices - cobots, chatbots, service robots (Robo-Helfer), cyborgs, etc. The author's particular attention is drawn to the methodology of "field research" of such a technique. Gradually, the possibility of a single hybrid phenomenon arises - a localized rational sphere extending from the habitat of the individual and his social chronotope to the free movement of semantic flows on the Internet.

Abstract:
This article intends to establish a comparison between technical analog objects—which were the objects of the epoch when the French philosopher Gilbert Simondon elaborated his philosophical reflection—and digital devices that emerged in the last few decades of the 1900s. First, I define the main features of Simondon’s technical objects in order to understand what the necessary conditions are for there to be technical progress, which is based on what he called the process of concretization. Then, I analyze the relationship between digital objects—as understood by Yuk Hui—and digital devices that take over from analog objects, without necessarily presenting continuity in an evolutionary process. Finally, I intend to expose the role that both analog objects and digital devices play as mediators with the world in a digital era, and to address the question of technical culture nowadays.

Abstract:
In many circumstances within the water industry, project managers act as the gatekeepers for new infrastructure and water projects by way of determining, or at least providing, an assessment of whether to proceed with the project. Their assessments, which are considerably based on risk, disproportionately assume a technical, rational approach. Psychological, sociological and cultural risk approaches provide a comprehensive guide into how risks are assessed, highlighting areas that are not considered by the traditional technical risk approach. This article provides a review of these approaches, and in so doing contends that existing risk assessments in the water industry ignore sociological and psychological contexts in situations, leading to an assessment that may not be reliable.

The article outlines a modified sociological principle for analyzing the economy. This principle conceptualizes economic behavior as a particular form of social action, and the economy as a constituent of society. For convenience the principle is termed “sociologics” in order to convey and stress the inherently social nature, structure and dynamics of the economy. After defining sociologics, the main part of the article identifies the (primarily) sociological reasons for the presence and salience of social variables in economic behavior. Such sociological reasons are identified as social-structural, sociopsychological and sociocultural, and are conjoined with an additional category of cognitive-technical factors.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to introduce a new thought process and associated predictive tool to assist designers of infrastructure for unfamiliar rural societies in understanding the specific non-engineering influences that can lead to greater effectiveness of engineered infrastructure. Design/methodology/approach Using sociological principles, a simple checklist tool has been designed to assess specific societal conditions that may influence intervention outcomes. The tool, when weighted by regional predispositions, allows the designer to incorporate five non-engineering influences into technical design of engineered infrastructure. Findings Early deployment of the tool indicates that the predictive process helps to adapt technical designs to societal contexts. It also enhances consultant understanding of the client’s values and needs to achieve a collaborative technical solution. Research limitations/implications Long-term outcomes have not been assessed, so additional time is needed to confirm the value of context in design performance. Further evaluations will refine the technical guideline process as well. Practical implications Merging sociological understanding with technical design allows engineers to assimilate client values and indigenous beliefs into an infrastructure, preventing rejection due to incompatibility with local context. Originality/value The concept of contextual engineering, which melds technical approach with societal influences, is the original contribution of the author, as is the predictive tool.
