Gender stratification of Russian society in the social dimension

Marina Юрьевна Milovanova

The demand for an objective assessment of the stratification of Russian society in the gender dimension is dictated by the structural social changes and risks of the modern moment, the commitment of Russian society to the value of social justice, interpreted as equality of opportunities, respect for human rights and freedoms regardless of gender. The severity and urgency of the demographic problem in Russia is gender-related, and a search is underway for new foundations for regulating gender relations and involving new components of the social structure for the formation of a healthy and progressive society. The study of the gender stratification of Russian society was conducted on the basis of the analysis of information from international, Russian statistical and sociological data, the author's analysis of data from the Russian Monitoring of the Economic Situation and Public Health (HSE, 2020, N=9831) and data obtained within the framework of the RNF project “Precariat: a new phenomenon in the socio-economic structure of society” (2018-2022, N=1200). The focus of the vision on the economic living conditions of women and men, the situation at work, the combination of health and education indicators is accompanied by the presentation of sociological information on the indices of positive and negative privilege, an assessment of the nature and degree of precarisation of work in the gender aspect. The content of the modern gender agenda reveals the limitations of gender-neutral policies in solving the demographic problem and the movement in favour of gender-sensitive policies, the use of the full potential of gender communities, their combined capital. Gender stratification in Russian society has its own national cultural and historical features, features of the Soviet gender contract, and at the same time shows a new combination, defines the horizons of scientific research. Further research into the social dimension of the processes of feminisation of consumer and reproductive behaviour in the context of the crisis of the family as a social institution, the intellectualisation of the digital economy, gender representation in the elite of development, continuity and modernisation of education is promising for gender as a research programme.

Keywords: social inequality, gender stratification, gender equality, chances, opportunities, risks, precarization, precarization of life.
