The article analyzes the complex and contradictory process of feminism in the Islamic cultural space on the example of Egypt. The author analyzes feminism as ideological and political of the movement women's equality phenomenon. We study the Genesis of the feminist movement in Egypt; reveal its social-economic causes and historical roots. In the article we consider the main problems associated with the status of Muslim women in the coverage of the largest Muslim educators and reformers of the previous century. It is proved that the movement for women emancipation in the Arab world was the movement of the upper layers of society, initiated by men. In the course of study a new historiographical material (mainly of translated character) was revealed and introduced into the scientific circulation which contributed to the study of a number of insufficiently studied problems
This article analyses the state religious policy in regard
to the Russian Orthodox Church in the first post Great
Patriotic War years. The characteristic of the religious
life during the above-mentioned period in the
Krasnodar Territory is given. The main resource of this
research was documents of the Authorized Board on
Russian Orthodox Church Affairs of the USSR
Ministerial Council in Krasnodar Territory. Some
positive changes in state- church relations took place.
New churches began to open. Revitalization of the
religious life came into being. It was shown in peoples’
participating in religious holidays, making orthodox
ceremonies. Christening was the most popular
ceremony. The less popular was the religious wedding.
In that period of time, women were active participants
of the religious life of the region. Among believers
there were soldiers demobilized from the army.
However from 1948 first signs of estrangement in state
– church relations began to appear
This article presents the results of the content analysis
of the US National Security Strategies published in the
period 1991-2010. The emphasis is on identifying the
role of non-governmental organizations in building of
the US political strategy, as well as considering the
evolutionary path of NGOs during various presidential
administrations of the United States. The conclusion is
drawn that during the considered period nongovernmental
organizations became an integral part of
the US foreign policy doctrine. NGOs have become
one of the most important instruments of the "soft
power" of the United States, primarily with regard to
the spread of democratic foundations and civil society.
The results demonstrate the difference in approaches to
the "soft power" between the democratic and
republican administrations of the United States of
America
The author carried out a research about folk motifs in
maiden headwear in the Russian north. The author
finds out that headwear is an important part of
women’s clothing that reflected aging and social
changes in the lives of Russian women. Headwear had
certain elements of the Upper world– the sun, water,
goddess outstretching their hands into the sky. The
author found out that a lot of attention was attached to
a human head in women’s headwear: it had solar
symbol on most of the embroidery (a radiant disk).
If there were five elements on maiden’s bands, it was
an indicator of a child-bearing age and often was
followed by a marriage. A decorative element with 5
beams and female bodies with outstretched hands
indicated her maidenhood, a connection with the sun
and upper gods. Seven fragments of this pattern at the
top point to child- bearing goddess; 7 pointy lines on
the top on the headwear in the Russian north.
The author also explains the meaning behind motifs
on the headwear which represents a cosmologic
system; it emphasizes the connection with the
Universe. The author concludes that those motifs also
revealed a complex nature of human outlook as helped
ward off sinister forces. The symbols are multifaceted
and require profound understanding. The structure per
se expresses in every component a complex nature of
the world
While studying the content of hypoxia-inducible factor
1-alpha and vascular endothelial growth factor in the
tumor tissue, oral fluid and peripheral blood of 141
patients with oral mucosa cancer T1-3N0-2M0, it was
shown that the development of purulent inflammatory
postoperative complications in patients with oral
mucosa cancer is associated with an increased
expression of HIF-1α in the tissue and its translocation
from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, activation of the
neoangiogenesis processes. It is informative to
determine HIF-1α factor in the blood serum, which,
for further development, can be used as a non-invasive
diagnostic marker to predict the postoperative course
in this category of patients
The article presents the possibilities of the GeoGebra dynamic geometry environment which can be used for conducting experimental research work. Computer experiment as a method of research serves to discover new knowledge, to test hypotheses, to involve students in the active process of learning new material. Freely-distributed GeoGebra's dynamic geometry environment which has a Russian version and a friendly interface that can be conveniently used both in classrooms and at home, is chosen as a computer technology for implementing a computer experiment. There are described possibilities of the tools used to implement the computer experiment. Among them are tools for detecting the metric and positional features of the object, obtaining information about the relationship between metric and positional features of objects, a parametrical task of changes of size, creation of experimental data tables. The experimental capabilities of the GeoGebra dynamic geometry environment are revealed by the examples of solving some elementary geometry problems about the simplest of polygons - a triangle that attracted the attention of both ancient scientists (Menelaus and others) and scientists who are closer to our time (Euler, Poncelet et al. ). Capabilities of the system for creating dynamic drawings, tables of experimental data and their application in conducting research work are demonstrated on the example of Menelaus' theorem presented in a more accessible form than in the textbook of geometry 10th -11th forms (authors L.S. Atanasyan, V. F. Butuzov, etc.)
The urgency of the problem of improving the
economic education of students is justified, there are
considered features of its resolution in informatics
training in the higher school. The relevance of
research on improving the economic education of
students is due to a number of factors: the need for the
development of small and medium-sized businesses in
Russia; The need to ensure the competitiveness of
graduates; The need to prevent the numerous financial
problems that arise in young people due to their
economic illiteracy, etc. In the global plan, the work to
improve the economic education of students is called
upon to contribute to the formation of a national
philosophy of "self-reliance". In many countries of the
world such work in educational institutions is carried
out both as independent subjects, and within the
framework of existing subjects studied in educational
institutions. It is asserted that the information
education of high school students can and should make
a definite contribution to the realization of each of the
social functions of economic consciousness:
enlightened, developing, educational, organizing,
aesthetic and prognostic. It is substantiated that with
information preparation it is most expedient to form
one of such functions - prognostic. It is worthwhile to
solve this problem based on the methodology of role
information modeling
This article is dedicated to the specialties of extra
English education in the frame of a non-linguistic
technical university. It can be represented by various
courses, which imply teaching from the elementary to
the advanced level. The types, contents and motivation
component are defined in the article. The material is
chosen according to the courses’ level, students’
abilities, and demands of a modern society. All types
of speech activity are worked at in these courses,
professional component and international standards of
mastering the English language are being taken into
consideration
The main structural units of the University are
departments; the results of their work influence the
quality of knowledge, skills and competence of
graduates and the image of the University. The article
reveals the reasons of unproductive interaction of the
departments with divisions, providing educational
process; it also discusses suggestions that will improve
the performance of the main indicators of assessment
of the efficiency of activities of the University. It is
shown, that a systematic approach is the basis in the
organization of work of structural divisions of the
University, but it is difficult to implement, if managers
and supervisors do not have authority. To improve the
quality of graduates and their demand in the labor
market, it requires exempting the Department from
administrative work. These functions can be redirected
to the management, departments and services with
modern electronic information processing system. To
achieve high results in training in-demand graduates is
possible when the offices and the departments will
work as a team with the lecturers, in cooperation and
understanding
The basic terms important for the linguistic and
cultural studies analysis such as "word picture of a
character" and “linguistic and cultural character type”
are described in the article altogether with the analysis
of the relationship between these concepts as
exemplified in the novel "The Godfather" by M. Puzo.
The cultural component of literary texts focuses on the
cross-cultural pragmatics, underlining the method of
linguistic and cultural character type modelling as it is
a personalized artistic concept with an intertextual
character. The research highlighted that the given
method draws excessive attention to common features
of the considered characters, therefore, partially ignoring
certain characteristics possessed by individual
characters. There are good reasons to add the research
of the word picture of the character as a part of the
individual author world picture to the method. The
article explains the rationale of a contaminated term
"linguistic and cultural image" as the best one explains
the individually expressed features of character,
ethnoculturaly determined
