Abstract Facial recognition technology has enabled governments and private companies to have control of millions of faces in different countries around the world. This becomes dangerous since it threatens the privacy of citizens, which is why different activists demonstrate against this form of control and surveillance using different technological and aesthetic resources to prevent said recognition. This work aims at showing how face concealment can be a powerful semiotic device that can slow down or divert facial recognition technology, configuring new physiognomies. We begin by characterizing the forms of concealment of the face in the contemporary digital age, and then we analyze, from a semiotic perspective, a particular case: the different types of makeup that Adam Harvey proposes so that faces cannot be recognized. The results of the investigation show how this form of face concealment that generates new physiognomies builds political senses of resistance against advanced technology that aims to identify, monitor, and control human faces.

The article is devoted to analysis of the works of the so-called village prose (F. Abramov, V. Shukshin, V. Rasputin, A. Solzhenitsyn) in the decolonial perspective using the concept of internal colonization. The characteristics of this concept and its heuristic potential are given. The application of semiotic method - distinction of markers - allowed the authors to determine the points of divergence in the socialist realism poetics and the village prose. It is shown that the village prose plots do not fit into the soviet ideological narratives, while the key narrative of the modern thinking - progress - in the artistic world of the village text testifies to the destruction of Russian village and the Russian peasantry. It is revealed that F. Abramov's application of the deconstruction method allowed to revaluate the narratives that are important for the soviet ideology. In V. Shukshins stories we have found an opposition of modernity - traditionalism, which serves as a precondition for the comic. It allows us to identify a subordinate position of a villager-peasant, irrelevant in the world of modernity.
本文运用内部殖民化的概念，从非殖民化的角度分析了所谓的乡村散文(F. Abramov, V. Shukshin, V. Rasputin, A. Solzhenitsyn)的作品。给出了这一概念的特点及其启发式潜力。符号学方法的运用——标记的区分——使作者确定了社会主义现实主义诗学与乡村散文的分歧点。乡村散文的情节与苏联意识形态叙事格格不入，而乡村文本艺术世界中现代思维的关键叙事——进步——则证明了俄罗斯乡村和俄罗斯农民的毁灭。揭示了阿布拉莫夫对解构方法的运用使得对苏联意识形态的重要叙事得以重新评价。在舒克辛的小说中，我们发现了现代性的对立面——传统主义，这是喜剧的前提。它让我们认识到，在现代世界中，村农的从属地位是无关紧要的。

This article aims to trace the history and development of agency theory in sociology, various approaches to the content of the term and the methodology of studying the phenomenon. Through the prism of transforming agency theory, the participation of residents in governmental, regional and municipal programs of public spaces improvement can be seen as a model action-structure. A hypothesis is put forward about the reciprocal influence of both components of this model on each other as a guarantee of the effectiveness of the improvement programs implementation. This assumption is verified on the basis of the information obtained during the quantitative stage of the study of the residents attitude to the implementation of improvement programs, which is currently being carried out on the territory of the Samara city district. The study applied result will be a set of recommendations for improving the mechanisms for implementing improvement programs.

The article is devoted to the study of considering children's opinions and interests by parents when implementing the family education. The spread of the family education in modern Russia is associated with the technological progress, political and social changes in society. The family education is a "crisis" practice that allows parents to save their children from its undesirable effects during crisis. The use of family education ensures eliminating the contradictions between the education system possibilities and the parents' demand for education. Parents' motives for choosing the family education are linked to their value orientations for education and upbringing. A series of in-depth interviews with parents identified key issues in protecting the rights and supporting the interests of children in the family education. An analysis of media content created by children about their own vision of the family education benefits was carried out. The features of organizing the family educational process, which includes parents' choice of educational programmes, subjects studied, teaching aids, methods of material presentation, contributes to the development of child independence, involves the use of tutors for additional preparation for the final attestation.

The article explicates the philosophical motives of A. Dumas' trilogy about the musketeers. A comparative study of the socio-political views of A. Dumas and F. Nietzsche is carried out. The features of the trilogy poetics are analyzed. The ideological and figurative content of Dumas' novels is revealed in the context of the teachings of F. Nietzsche, O. Spengler, W. Sombart. The main motives of the Dumas trilogy and Cervantes' novel about Don Quixote are parallelized. The article substantiates the thesis that the main motive of the Dumas trilogy about the musketeers is the image of the superhuman.

The aphorisms of the journalist, publicist, physician August Osipovich Rosenthal (18301891) are introduced into scientific discourse. In 1855 Rosenthal raised an uprising that became part of the peasant uprisings of the mid-1850s. He was arrested and exiled to Siberia, later reinstated. In 1880 he emigrated: the published aphorisms refer to the overseas period of Rosenthal's life. The preamble to the text specifies biographical information based on archival sources from Rosenthal's personal fund (Manuscript Department of the IRLI (the Pushkin House) RAS, F. 258).The published aphorisms are reflections on the moral nature of the human being and society. Distinctive features of Rosenthal's collection are a combination of didactics, humor and adherence to the knowledge scientific paradigm, openness to dialogue with the reader and declarative interactivity.
新闻记者、公关人员、医生奥古斯特·奥西波维奇·罗森塔尔(18301891)的格言被引入科学论述。1855年，罗森塔尔发动了一场起义，成为19世纪50年代中期农民起义的一部分。他被逮捕并流放到西伯利亚，后来又复职。1880年，他移居国外:出版的格言指的是罗森塔尔生活的海外时期。正文的序言详细说明了基于罗森塔尔个人基金(IRLI(普希金之家)手稿部RAS, F. 258)的档案来源的传记信息。出版的格言是对人类和社会道德本质的反思。罗森塔尔作品集的特点是教学、幽默和对知识科学范式的坚持、与读者对话的开放性和陈述性互动的结合。

This article is another attempt to comprehend such a phenomenon as the "Volga text". The image of the Volga have been repeatedly studied, but there is still no total research that gives a full and complete reply to the question: What is the Volga text? Especially it concerns A.K. Goldebaevs creative heritage, who remains a little-known or unknown writer for the literary world. In addition, the very phenomenon of the Samara text (the Volga text is its important part) has not been fully studied. All this indicates the undoubted relevance and novelty of the study, the purpose of which is to consider the features of the Volga image functioning in the plots of the works by Goldebaev, M. Gorky, S.G. Petrov and F.D. Kryukov. The leading research methods have been synchronic, diachronic, comparative and structural ones. The empirical material comprised such works as "Foma Gordeev", "Through the Line", "Without Fire", "Summer Vacation". The choice of these texts is reasoned by the fact that Goldebaevs documents, stored in the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art, have been found to have extracts, made from them, containing description of the Volga only. And Goldebaevs story is the only work known to the author of the article, which contains a description of the Volga. The article concludes that it is not entirely correct to define Goldebaev's story as a Volga text: the Volga just locates the plot there and hardly participates in the construction.
本文是理解“伏尔加文本”这一现象的又一尝试。伏尔加河的形象已经被反复研究，但仍然没有一个完整的研究给出一个完整的回答这个问题:伏尔加河的文本是什么?特别是关于A.K.戈尔德巴耶夫的创作遗产，他仍然是文学界鲜为人知或不为人知的作家。此外，萨马拉文本(伏尔加文本是其重要组成部分)的现象尚未得到充分研究。所有这些都表明了这项研究的相关性和新见性，其目的是考虑伏尔加形象在戈尔德巴耶夫、M.高尔基、S.G.彼得罗夫和F.D.克鲁科夫作品情节中的功能特征。主要的研究方法有共时法、历时法、比较法和结构法。实证材料包括《Foma Gordeev》、《Through The Line》、《Without Fire》、《Summer Vacation》等作品。选择这些文本的理由是，存放在俄罗斯国家文学和艺术档案馆的戈尔德巴耶夫的文件被发现有摘录，其中只包含对伏尔加河的描述。这篇文章的作者只知道戈尔德巴耶夫的故事，这篇文章包含了对伏尔加河的描述。文章的结论是，将戈尔德巴耶夫的故事定义为伏尔加文本并不完全正确:伏尔加只是将情节定位在那里，几乎没有参与建设。

The purpose of the article is to outline the approaches to the comprehension of the travelogue genre dynamics by exploring the modification ways of some conventional features in the latest samples of the genre. So, the lack of analytical procedures in this field of literary theory is filled. Structural-analytical, hermeneutical methods, and the method of motivic analysis were used. A. Ulanovs essays as an empirical material represent a trend towards aesthetic and intellectual search in the modern literature. The number and dispersion of loci described in the essays, as well as the similarity of style and theme, create the effect of a wide coverage of the space. The realias that the traveller sees and describes in other cities, countries and continents is not perceived as the alien, since the author has prior knowledge about it and ponders deeply and non-trivially on what he sees, presenting it in original forms. Reflection generated by the authors experience of exploring space does not dominate over a close look at the world and the Other. The subjectivity of multifaceted observations and reasoning is built up due to particular aesthetic fullness. An important role in this regard is played by the images of stone and water, which lead to the theme of time and memory, perceived as a touch to the past. The rejection of the de-individualized practice of visiting attractions and the tourist/traveller dichotomy are clearly visible. There is a postmodern irony towards historical reconstruction, the possibility of touching the past is developed through subjective peering and reflection.

The aim of this article is to explore the discrediting influence on individuals and conceptualize the notion of "discreditation". The author argues that discreditation is a primary phenomenon preceding discrimination and is particularly relevant in terms of the development of Deepfake technologies. The article examines the genealogy of the concept of discreditation, its emergence theological and economic conditions, as well as the psychoanalytic and philosophical teachings of J. Lacan and L. Althusser on interpellation and discourses. The author shows that desacralized discreditation precedes discrimination and is subject to paradoxes. The conclusion is drawn that a subject, increasingly vulnerable to discreditation, needs strategies for possible and subsequent accreditation.
