“…Studying the issues of improving the quality of life of the population, N.V. Trofimova formulated the concept as follows: "The quality of life of the population is an integral socioeconomic category, which is the result of the aggregated impact of objective components reflecting the state and level of development of the social, economic and environmental spheres" [8].…”

The article analyzes the genesis of the phenomenon of comfort of living in the urban environment, the influence of objective factors and subjective needs on determining the level of comfort of residents, including in the context of the relationship with agriculture. An objective assessment is carried out on the basis of calculations of indicators of the quality of the urban environment, the provision of the population with the necessary set of services. Assessment of the quality of urban environment, as an objective indicator, demonstrates the effectiveness of public and municipal officials. For the current urban methodology to assess the quality of urban environment, the author proposed ten additional evaluation indicators. The concept of comfort is determined not only by economic welfare, but also by other indicators. Further research shows that no less significant for a full-fledged assessment of comfort is the consideration of subjective preferences of citizens. However, taking into account different historical and cultural traditions, national preferences, natural and climatic conditions and ecological situation, as well, it is difficult to quantitatively calculate a universal level of comfort. Accumulating previous studies, taking into account modern realities, the author offers an interpretation of the concept of “comfort of living”. Developing Layard’s theory, the author has developed a “Dial” of comfort of living, which takes into account the indicators “housing”, “environment” and “digital culture”. To calculate a quantitative assessment of the level of comfort of living, it is advised to use a combined method, taking into account both objectively established factors and subjective preferences of residents, as well. Thus, the issue of assessing the level of comfort of living should be further studied, taking into account the factors of housing, environment, digital communication tools and, possibly, new, emerging over time, factors of influence.

“…Thus, the estimation of migration situation at the post-Soviet space is impossible without understanding the history about new independent states, which recently were pars of the one state, and migration had in-country character [7]. Common historical roots emerged in a result of numerous personal and relative networks between inhabitants of different states, common cultural codes, keeping of unite language space, although considerably reduced, and wide diaspora of representative of nations, originating from the other parts of the former USSR [8] Russian language as an element of identity and communication resource, which unites citizens of Russia, countries of the former Soviet countries, and far abroad, plays considerable role in the statement of contemporary political, economic and educational dialogue.…”

The purpose of this article is to analyze migration activity in the post-Soviet space, changes in ethnic composition in the CIS countries and their role in peculiarities of preservation, functioning and representations about the Russian language, its main characteristics and proficiency among population from CIS countries. Empirical data was collected during the sociological research, fulfilled in 2017 in six countries members of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS): Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, n = 1400. Information-gathering methods included formal interviews in the place of residence of population aged 18 to 75 years. Several indicators were used to achieve the goal: representations about the Russian language; assessment of the role of the Russian language; main characteristics of the Russian language; Russian language proficiency. The article states that in considering principal peculiarities of functioning of Russian in the post-Soviet space demographic indicators such as number of population, number of ethnic groups, proportion of Russian and indigenous population in CIS countries, changes in number of Russians after the dissolution of the USSR, external migration indicators should be taken into account. It was concluded that the Russian language proficiency is important for its preservation and functioning on the territory of CIS countries, the Russian language is well preserved in Belarus, at the middle level in Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova and at the lowest level in Tajikistan. The popularity of Russian in respondents’ evaluations is determined by non-linguistic factors and characteristics, and associated with successful foreign policy of Russia and development of economic and trade relations of Russia with other countries. The development of the tourist sector and attractiveness of Russia for immigration are significant catalysts of interest towards the Russian language, influence of targeted programs, aimed at enhancing the positions of the Russian language and popularization of the Russian culture estimated as less significant. Attractiveness of Russia for immigration, increase of migration streams are important incentives for development and preservation of the Russian language.

“…The individual view on forming the ideas about "other some" was also developed within the framework of ethnic and social psychology (Aronson et al, 2005;Stefanenko, 2009). To analyze the data obtained by us during the study, we also studied a layer of historiography devoted to the problem of "other some" image (Zemskov, 2015;Mukha & Kurbalenko, 2014;Maksimova, 2014;Repina, 2012). A special place among these works is occupied by the works devoted to the formation of the "enemy image" (Savelyev, 2010;Senyavskiy & Senyavskaya, 2006).…”

This article reveals the main approaches and methods of forming a perception stereotype of the migrant image as "other some" in the Russian mass media. The authors of this article analyzed three federal print publications -"Rossiyskaya Gazeta", "Trud" and "Komsomolskaya Pravda", characterized as mass editions, which enabled to make the most complete coverage of several segments of the readership and to highlight the most widespread meaning of the "migrant" concept in the public consciousness. The study of the dynamics of using the "migrant" concept for the period of 2000-2013 in the Russian print media made it possible to conclude that there were shifts towards a positive assessment of "other some". If the "language of enmity" was used in the public consciousness to form the migrant image at the beginning of the period under investigation, which led to the consolidation of migrant phobia, then the situation changed by 2013 -the migrant image was more often associated with a victim of interethnic tension and corruption. The new migrant image is the image of a migrant who has not found a better life, but has adopted Russia as a second home and therefore trying to adopt new standards and living conditions and helping to solve many of the social and economic problems of Russian society.
