The St.Petersburg publishing house "Aleteia" has published the book "The Phenomenon of Socio-Cultural Neotraditionalism" by our authors, researchers from Novosibirsk, S.A. Madyukova and Yu. V. Popkov.

The book offers a version of socio-cultural neotraditionalism which is described, on the one hand, as a characteristic feature of the change in the channels and means of inhering social experience and translation of traditions (diachronic aspect) and, on the other hand, as an important mechanism of socialization and enculturation in the process of actual social interaction (synchronic aspect). The authors show the important role of socio-cultural neotraditionalism in the processes of ethnic identification and reproduction of ethnicity in the contemporary context.

The book is addressed to sociologists, ethnologists, culture experts, social philosophers and all those who are interested in the functioning and translation of traditions in the modern world.
