RELIGIOUS, RACIAL, ETHNIC CONFLICTS
With the development and complication of society and social relations, communication channels and spheres of influence increase. The isolation and integrity of any social group or community is violated. Culture is integrated and becomes international, all modern society is involved in the process of globalization. All the described phenomena increase the likelihood of ethnic, racial and religious conflicts in society.
The unification of ethnic groups or races sometimes occurs democratically and naturally, but more often it causes social tension and clashes. After all, any community strives to preserve its unique culture and history and actively fights for its territory and identity.
Depending on the level of self-awareness, an ethnic group can react differently to social changes. Ethnocentric groups are the most conflict-prone. In their struggle they can use religious principles and attitudes, and therefore involve new participants in a conflict situation.
The main groups of causes of ethnic, religious and racial conflicts are distinguished:
▪ reasons for the ethnopsychological factor;
▪ political factors;
▪ socio-economic reasons;
▪ sociocultural factors and differences.
The destruction of the habitual way of social and cultural life of an ethnos causes a defensive or protective reaction of this ethnos. Since the loss of former values unambiguously presupposes the dominance of new introduced values and norms, the assimilated ethnic group perceives its culture as secondary and suppressed. This explains ethnopsychological factors and the conflicts that arise from them.
The emergence of a new ethnic group or religious movement contributes to the creation of new political leaders - political factors. Socio-economic status of a particular social group or ethnic group in a particular historical period affects the general position of the group in intergroup relations or causes tension, and the poor economic situation negatively affects the perception by the ethnic group of any actions directed at it, or the nature of relations with other ethnic groups and social groups projects the existing discrimination that creates the conditions for conflict to flare up.
Conflicts arising due to sociocultural differences, the most acute and long-lasting, as they occur as a result of the violent destruction of cultural differences. Religious, linguistic and other cultural norms are assimilated and destroyed. All this disintegrates the ethnos and therefore encounters resistance.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven
09.05.2024
Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship
08.05.2024
Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Liquid crystal current transmission cable
08.10.2019
Researchers from the Institute of Organic Chemistry at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (JGU, Germany) have synthesized new liquid crystals that can serve as a material for a liquid crystal "cable" and provide targeted transmission of electricity in electronic components.
Liquid crystals are a phase state of a substance that occupies an intermediate position between the solid and liquid states. In a liquid, the molecules "float" randomly, and in liquid crystals they are arranged in a certain order, as in ordinary crystal lattices, but the material still remains liquid. Such crystals are used in TV screens, smartphones and calculators.
Researchers from the Institute of Organic Chemistry at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz have found another use for this liquid crystal substance - the transmission of current.
“If you cool our liquid crystal materials slowly, the molecules will self-assemble into columns,” explained Professor Heiner Detert of JGU. “We can think of these columns as many layers stacked one on top of the other. that these columns conduct electrical energy along their entire length." While most materials conduct positive charges, liquid crystal molecules conduct electrons. An additional advantage of the liquid crystal "cable" is that if it breaks, it will fully recover on its own.
The researchers found a particularly interesting effect that appears in their synthesized molecules: if one molecule is exposed to ultraviolet light, it begins to glow in response. If you add a few more to it, the effect disappears, and reappears when the number of molecules continues to increase. If the molecules are suspended in a solvent (that is, made into a liquid mixture with solid particles evenly distributed in the liquid) or placed on a film, they will glow in different colors when exposed to ultraviolet light.
