This paper presents an empirical study of representations of Russian and Mongolian youth about a happy family. The research featured 120 young Russian and Mongolian people (age: 18–30). The results were obtained using Charles Osgood’s semantic differential method, Sacks and Levy’s sentence completion test, and various questionnaires. Factorial, cluster, and qualitative analyses were used to process the results. The study revealed some ethnic and gender differences regarding the concept of "happy family". Russian and Mongolian youth appear to follow different ideal models. For Mongolian youth, a happy family was a "large family" and "parental family". For Russian women, a happy family was one with few children, while for Russian men demonstrated opposite views. Therefore, in contrast to Mongolia, the family institution in Russia is developing modern ideas about a happy family life. Mongolian youth use their parents’ family as a model to follow, while Russian young people follow the role models promoted by the media. However, the romantic ideas about marriage were quite similar in both groups.
The article discusses the need to study the organizational culture of internal affairs bodies from the perspective of an institutional approach. Based on the results of a theoretical analysis of domestic and foreign studies of organizational culture in commercial and state budgetary organizations, the author focuses on the fact that despite the many studies conducted, the question remains what functions are general and which are specific, what are the differences in the content of functions. It is pointed out that in scientific works devoted to the problems of the organizational and cultural functioning of IAB as a state and social institution, these concepts are not clearly determined, although the very existence of these definitions suggests a distinction between the phenomenology they are based on. The analysis shows that from the point of view of the institutional approach, the specificity of the organizational culture of the internal affairs bodies has not yet been considered and remains insufficiently studied, that may complicate the implementation of measures to develop the organizational culture of the internal affairs bodies of Russia.
