Problemy integratsii religioznykh men'shinstv: keysy Evropeyskogo Soyuza i Rossiyskoy Federatsii = The challenges of the integration of religious minorities: case studies in the EU and Russian Federation

This article provides a critical examination and comparison of the contemporary position of three religious minorities: the Muslims in Glasgow; the Sikhs in Novellara and the Kryashens in Tatarstan. This is initially accomplished through an overview of the socio-economic, cultural and political impact of the religious minorities as three important case studies and through their relationship with the dominant form of religion and religious identity. The article will then analyse this information and these relationships using two lenses. First, we will use the four types of claims for recognition proposed by Koenig (2015): (1) claims for recognition of difference (2); claims for more autonomy in public spheres (3); claims for tolerance and (4) call for greater recognition for equal participation in organization of the state. Second, we will use the four acculturation strategies proposed by Berry (1997): (1) integration; (2) assimilation; (3) separation; and (4) marginalisation. The article will conclude with some final comments on gender and youth

The Influence of Employee Competency in Small and Medium Business Brazil and Brics and Jair Bolsonaro’s 1st Year of Presidency

This study aims to look at employee competency with job satisfaction as an intervening variable at small and medium business (SMB) by consdring the Brazil politics. The political stage in Brazil changed course towards the “right” on 1 January 2019 when the anti-globalist former army officer Jair Bolsonaro was inaugurated as the 38th President of the Republic. That was an abrupt change of ideologies for a country leaded by the “left” (Workers’ Party) in the last 13 years. Scholars made contradictory assumptions about the future of BRICS: one of the most significant economic organisations on the international arena nowadays, within the new Brazilian background. In the beginning of 2019 the opportunity for Braxit was not excluded, although there was no immediate call for it. However, the most common opinion came from pragmatists like N. Muhandiram: they affirmed that the union would keep functioning but it would meet multiple challenges. This article gives an answer to the question why the “right” turn in Brazil affects the relations between the biggest Latin American democracy and BRICS.

La inmigración se ha convertido en una parte integral de la realidad rusa y uno de los factores más importantes en su desarrollo. De hecho, la inmigración es el destino de la sociedad rusa.

La parte de estos riesgos está justificada y el resto es más el resultado de los estereotipos y prejuicios existentes. El artículo tiene como objetivo destacar los principales escenarios relacionados con la evaluación de los riesgos de la inmigración, así como analizar la razonabilidad de las ideas mencionadas. El artículo formula algunas recomendaciones que pueden reducir el grado potencial de conflicto en los flujos migratorios y así disminuir la importancia de algunos estereotipos y prejuicios en la sociedad rusa moderna
