Current political agenda of Russian sociological journals

Abstract
The paper analyses content on socio-political topics published in contemporary Russian sociological journals: “Sociological Studies”, “Sociological Journal”, “Siberian Socium” and “Social Sciences and Humanities. Domestic and Foreign Literature. Series 11. Sociology”. The publications that were the subject of our interest were predominantly under the heading of political sociology and/or in thematically similar sections. Among the most discussed topics in the pages of the journals are the following: the domestic political agenda, primarily related to the manifestation of protest and civic activism of Russians; the role of individual political actors or institutions (state, Russian President, elite, youth, etc) in the socio-political transformations in the country; problems and outcomes of post-Soviet transformations; foreign policy issues (confrontation between Russia and Western countries, threats to national security), socio-political structure of other world powers. A small proportion of the studies in this segment focus on new concepts and theoretical and methodological approaches in political sociology, or on socio-political phenomena that have not yet been sufficiently explored. The thematic repertoire of journals depends on their genre peculiarity. General sociology journals are characterised by coverage of a wide range of political issues. In the journal “Siberian Socium”, as expected, there is a prevalence of works with a regional focus, but there are also some more general works. Abstract journal “Sociology”, due to its specificity, is primarily represented by secondary information and analytical materials (abstracts, literature reviews, book reviews), which as a rule are based on foreign-language sources of scientific literature.
