This sociological research studies how fashion editors, art directors, and photographers make the fluidity of gender more visible within an industry established on the binary womenswear/menswear. It addresses gender fluid practices as a questioning of the conditions in which relations between body and dress are made systematic. The research has identified some of the restrictions faced when producing gender fluid fashion imagery, and highlighted the alternative solutions that originate from these limitations. This paper proposes to apply live and inventive methodological approaches to fashion studies. The design of my methodology was concerned with its capacity to study a subject still mostly understood through a binary ontology. Consequently, the “Diagrammatic Manifestos” is a research method attentive to the conditions in which relations can be made different, rather than identical, to dominant gender ideals. Throughout the series of interviews, diagrams were operated as analytical devices to graphically reorganize transcripts into manifestos. The diagrams’ forms were made responsive to the differences in each participants’ narrative and reveal how their individual experiences of gender affect the images they produce.

Few studies focus on how ideas circulate during community-based innovation contests. This research studies a contest employing two creativity methods: the hybrid and the speedstorming. Participants initially ideated individually, then ideated in pairs, and finally selected ideas for development. A novel research method that permits to track the “life” of ideas is settled. We found that final ideas are moderately original in comparison to the remainder of ideas submitted. We also found that participants did not reveal their most original ideas. Finally, we show that the final ideas were not co-created by the participants but came from solitary individuals.

This article deals with the concept of class and class analysis in sociological research in the last few decades in Slovenia. It reveals the specific reasons for the relatively marginal role of this sort of analysis before and especially after 1990. First, it lists a selection of the key class and stratification studies during the communist era. Second, it describes the class and stratification studies that occurred before and around the regime change (1980–1991). Third, it describes a number of stratification research studies after 1991 (to the present), with many international components. The research efforts of a few influential research groups in Slovenia that have engaged in class and stratification studies, following special approaches, are presented and commented on: the Marxist tradition, a Bourdieuian approach focusing on symbolic discourse, and a structurally based labor process approach. In the conclusion, both a substantive and methodological account of relative achievements in the field are offered.

In the course of sociological research about the Internet, an accompanying range of new methodological approaches have been developed to investigate usage, communication, processes of appropriation, and the virtuality of the Internet. However, the exploration of the Internet as a technological and material object as well as the question of how it is involved in human practices are seen more rarely. This paper presents a methodology of software-based recording and an analysis of the interactions between humans and the Internet, which are visible on the screen. Adding methods of usability and market research to sociological Internet research, this enables us to “move closer” to the technology and to get a detailed view of human practices and Internet “actions” on the interface; therewith, it will be possible to investigate how social practices proceed when Internet technologies are involved, how users handle the Internet and to what extent it enables, facilitates, limits, or hinders practices.

The article analyzes approaches to understanding the role of the peasantry as the basis of the Russian nation and culture and a special social community. The ideas of M. M. Kovalevsky, S. N. Yuzhakov, P. A. Sorokin, A.V. Chayanov and T. Shanin are presented. The conclusion is made about the relevance and methodological value of the approaches of representatives of Russian sociology to this issue. The article states that today, among the priority areas of agricultural sociology, the most popular is the study of family farming as a subject of the informal economy sector of the production of environmentally friendly products for the population interested in the development of bio-agriculture and innovative food networks that reduce the distance between food producers and consumers. It is this urgency of the problem that makes peasant studies the most promising direction of agrarian sociology. Taking into account the practical significance of this problem, relying on methodological approaches and developments of domestic and foreign sociologists, the research group of the Ural Agrarian University, based on the network interaction of universities of the Ural region and India, developed a program of initiative cross-cultural sociological research on the topic "Culture of farm labor", the purpose of which is to analyze the value bases of economic behavior of representatives of this social group for designing an effective agricultural policy.

The article considers the history of formation of qualitative and quantitative methodological approaches in sociology. The  historical reconstruction of the fundamental ideas of representatives of these areas makes it possible to better understand their relationship, to determine the possibilities of their interaction in the study of social reality. In this regard, the article analyses the qualitative and quantitative strategy of sociological research taking into account their ontological, epistemological, axiological and methodological principles. A meaningful analysis of the three «waves», the stages of sociological cognition makes it possible to understand the specifics of the development of sociological knowledge, determine central ideas and values, and better understand the dynamics of the interaction of existing approaches and paradigms. Qualitative and quantitative methodological approaches in social sciences arose almost simultaneously, but their further development was extremely uneven, and their use to study and explain social reality for a long time was not based on the principles of parity interaction. The expansion of the practice of sociological research in a situation of high dynamics of social processes made it possible to increase the level of research culture, the understanding of values and cognitive differences in qualitative and quantitative methodologies made it possible and necessary to use them together. The basis for combining qualitative and quantitative methodological approaches is their functional additionality, which is expressed in the ability to most fully represent various aspects of the study of the same subject area. We are talking about methodological, conceptual triangulation as a strategy for the interaction of qualitative and quantitative approaches in the study of social problems using qualitative and quantitative methods for collecting and analysing sociological information. Such a technique increases the completeness and reliability of the received information, expands research capabilities.

The essay displays youth society in T?r?kszentmikl?s, the center of a small area located in the Big Plateau, in the first decade of this century. We started the research because we think that without innovative and opened youth society for modernization processes no territory or county can have future in the beginning of the 21st century. The future is endangered by the existential and moral crisis of the growing generation. Forming the research method, the specific deviant examples and of the newly graduated population migration played the main role. .

<p><em>The existence of a number of ancient Megalithic and Hindu artifacts in five districts in Kebumen Regency is still lacking in assessment, especially from a sociological perspective. Its existence is dominated by a number of narratives that are mythological rather than historical and sociological. The research method used in this study is qualitative with an exploratory and descriptive approach. This study was analyzed using Structural Functional Theory. The research results show that the ancient Kebumen area is home to several layers of older people who lived in the Megalithic era marked by the presence of a number of terraces and andesite stone structures. The next layer of society is the ancient Hindu era of Shiva worshipers, which is marked by the presence of a number of Lingga and Yoni and Ganesha. Although minus documentary data regarding the existence of people who left behind the legacy of ancient Megalithic and Hinduism, but through the analysis of material social facts the existence of artifacts and analysis of religious symbols, a number of initial conclusions were formed which became the basis for subsequent sociological research. Based on available data it can be concluded that various ancient socio-religious layers have contributed to shaping the socio-cultural life of the Kebumen community today.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong><strong> </strong><em>Megalithic</em><em>;</em><em> Hinduism</em><em>;</em><em> Shivaism</em><em>;</em><em> Social Layer</em><em>;</em><em> Religious Systems</em><em>;</em><em> Social Facts</em><em>;</em><em> Social Stratification</em><em>;</em><em> </em><em>G</em><em>emeinschaft</em><em>;</em><em> </em><em>G</em><em>eselsch</em><em>a</em><em>ft</em><em>.</em><strong></strong></p><h2> </h2><p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Keberadaan sejumlah sebaran artefak Megalitik dan Hindu kuno di lima kecamatan di Kabupeten Kebumen masih minim pengkajian khususnya dari perspektif sosiologis.

Online   learning   is   one   of   the   alternative solutions set by the government in an effort to carry out an educational climate during the Covid-19 pandemic. Online learning patterns at least require teachers to try to find ways to make distance learning fun and can meet the needs of students for scientific material. The combination of voice notes and mind mapping is an alternative that can be used as a means and media for online learning. The assumption is that most of the participants currently have a WhatsApp application so that it will not make it difficult for them with regards to devices or quotas. Meanwhile, for making mind mapping students can make their versions according to their respective versions so that they will get the sensation of learning while playing. Therefore, the problems of this article are Indonesian language learning technical with a combination of voice notes and mind mapping; and strengths and weaknesses of the implementation of learning Indonesian with a combination of voice notes and mind mapping. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with content analysis. The result of the research is that a combination of voice notes and mind mapping can be used for learning Indonesian online by following the proper technical implementation. The combination of the two has a positive and negative impact on learning. Keywords: Voice Note, Mind Mapping, Indonesian Language Learning
