Socio-cultural identity of rescue officers in the modern conditions of the region
Abstract
The research reveals the signs of sociocultural identity of rescue officers of the region on the basis of the analysis of professional culture level. The novelty of the research topic consists in the fact that social stability in the country in general and in the region particularly depends on the effectiveness of rescue services. A special role in the effectiveness of rescue services is assigned to executors involved in overcoming catastrophes and their consequences-employees of special search and rescue squads (SRS). The externality of the rescue service is widely covered in mass media, especially in emergency situations. Personal characteristics and features of interaction of participants in rescue operations, together with special knowledge and skills that form the basis of professional culture, often remain behind the scenes. The research methodology is based on institutional and structural and functional approaches to the analysis of rescuers' activities. Empirical sociological data obtained by a sociological survey of the general totality of the search and rescue squad of the General Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in the Republic of Adygeya. As a result of the research, an integrative model of a rescuer’s personality was obtained, as well as data indicating a high level of professional culture and an adequate socio-cultural identity of SRS officers. An indicator of professional culture is understanding of the value of professional training for rescue activities by workers. Most of the officers have developed a valuable attitude towards human life both in emergency situations and in the conditions of everyday life in the course of their service. Understanding the leading role of the state in ensuring effective operation of rescue services and high self-esteem of rescue services indicate the stability of the structure and effectiveness of the activities of the Emergencies Ministry.
