The Sociocultural Communication within the Framework of a Peasant Community in the Second Half of the XIX - Early XX Century (Using an Example of Eastern Siberia)
The sociocultural communication within the framework of the peasant community is considered on the basis of an interdisciplinary approach. The process of the sociocultural communication is defined as a combination of means of transmitting social information and the basis of its characteristics, as exemplified by a peasant community in Eastern Siberia. It gives theoretical provisions of cultural studies on the types of communication distinguished by the nature of subjects, forms, levels, and types of communication (innovative, orientational, stimulating correlation). To analyze the problem, general provisions of sociology on the purpose of communication are used. As a result of a new discourse on the analysis of historical and ethnographic sources, which were mainly already put into circulation by researchers of a peasant community, it was concluded that communication in the peasant community proceeded at the level of everyday culture, the non-verbal form of communication prevailed within the frame-work of personal-group communication. All the main types of communication were present in the community, however, the most significant types were orientational and correlation. The stimulative type of communication was also of certain importance, since its purpose, along with the cognitive one (dissemination and acquisition of new knowledge and skills), was also motivating (stimulating other people to take any action). Among the forms of communicative action, imitation and control prevailed.
