“…As such, it is a clear demonstration, on a national, televised scale, of certain key principles of diversity and inclusion. Specifically, if an environment is not inclusive, mere diversity might result in increased, not decreased, tension and difficulty (Coenen & Kunst, 2021; Ghazzawi & Palladini, 2016).…”

Strictly Come Dancing is a celebrity dance competition and one of the most diverse programs on British television. Nonetheless, this current research investigated whether racial bias was detectable in the pattern of celebrity contestants who were repeatedly assigned to the "dance-off" due to low levels of audience support. This study used a preregistered, cross-sectional analysis strategy on public data about celebrity contestants in Seasons 10-19 of Strictly Come Dancing, their average scores for their dances, and the number of dance-offs to which they were assigned. Moderation analyses revealed a three-way interaction between celebrity race, professional dancer race, and average dance scores. The contestants most likely to be assigned to repeated dance-offs were racial minority celebrities who were paired with racial minority professional dancers and achieved high scores from the judges. Implications for media representation, diversity, and inclusion are discussed. Public Policy Relevance StatementStrictly Come Dancing is a very popular and diverse British television show. However, racial minorities, particularly high-performers, are treated more negatively on Strictly Come Dancing (i.e., assigned to the dance-off more often). This research shows how bottom-up processes (i.e., audience participation) can lead to media that is highly diverse, but in which minorities are treated unfavorably.

“…In addition, a consolidating role in this issue is played by a common history, which makes all these steps possible. The central aspect here is the freedom of a representative of each ethnic group in the process of studying their history to get acquainted with the history of neighbouring peoples, developing an understanding of personal and ethnic involvement in the general context of a political nation (Coenen & Kunst, 2021). A feature of a successful cultural diversity in a multi-ethnic state is an adequate model of interethnic relations as a foundation for the comprehensive development of each individual, which in turn has a beneficial effect on improving the political, economic, and socio-cultural well-being of Kazakhstan.…”

The purpose of this study is to critically examine the nature of interethnic interactions in the Republic of Kazakhstan through the lens of the cultural aspect at the institutional level, as well as to identify the model of interethnic relations in Kazakhstan. As research methods, the study involved diachronic and synchronistic methods corresponding to cultural studies, which allowed considering the current state of interethnic relations in the country by aspects and systemically, considering historical-geographical, socio-economic, cultural, and linguistic contexts. The study also employed a psychological approach, which allowed considering the development of interethnic relations from the standpoint of subjective cultural mechanisms. As a result, a descriptive model of interethnic relations in the Republic of Kazakhstan was formulated, and the study identified the crisis moments affecting the full-fledged development of coexisting ethno-religious microsociums, native people and immigrants, in the multilingual and multicultural system of the republic.

Law Enforcement Review

Sweden has a long history of being a monoconfessional state. However, in the 20th – 21st centuries the composition of Swedish society has changed, leading the country into a crisis caused by the policy of ignoring the needs of ethnic and religious minorities. In recent years, multidisciplinary research works have been focused on finding a ground of the current social and political destabilization in this country caused by on-going religion- and ethic-based conflicts between its nationals. Some of them suggest that Sweden is not a secular but a clerical state, others – that there is a gap in its legislation.The author of the article offers another point of view, according to which, the Swedish law enforcer distorts the constitutional and legal meaning of the provisions on religious freedom that occurs under the influence of historical specifics of the development of Swedish law, hence the lack of uniformity in law enforcement practice for the implementation of this fundamental human right.The subject of the study is the norms of the legislation of Sweden, including historical legal acts and documents, as well as relevant court cases and key findings of domestic and foreign research works.Objective: to prove the influence of historical specifics of the development of Swedish law on the current legal enforcement practice under which the distortion of the constitutional and legal meaning by the Swedish law enforcement takes place.Methods: the author employs a combination of general (content-analysis, case-study, formal logical method, generalization etc.) and private scientific methods (formal judicial methods, concrete sociological method of studying state and legal phenomena etc).Results: The obtained results demonstrate that Swedish law enforcement has been given an opportunity for a broad interpretation of constitutional norms. The author identifies the distortion of the constitutional and legal meaning in provisions that provide a special status to followers of the evangelical faith, on the one hand, and a partial ban on religious and ethnic minorities from expressing their confessional affiliation, on the other. The analysis of specifics of the development of Swedish law demonstrates the possible ground of the existing constitutional inequality is the historically discriminatory nature of the legislation in relation to followers of other religious cults. These results can be used as a foundation for future research in the field of realization of religious liberty in multicultural states.
