“…The presence of a clearly defined point of reference makes the experience of competitive-individualistic relations accumulated over thirty years in various areas of Russian public and private life a convenient object of research into the effectiveness and costs of commercializing social institutions and creative activity. (сf., Kovalevskaya, 2009;Ishchenko, 2010;Farkhatdinov, 2011;Suvalko, 2013;Golovashina, 2016;Polyakov, 2016;Popova, 2016 et al). Scientific psychology interprets the problem in terms of the dialectic of the measure and its violation: greed is seen as an exaggerated frugality and thrift, which not only does not bring happiness and satisfaction, but causes serious psychosomatic disorders; accordingly, scientific recommendations consist in keeping the passions under the control of the mind, training both thriftiness and generosity, helping the nearest and dearest as well as strangers (Shcherbatykh, 2010, pp.…”

In modern society, which is conceptualized as a society of mass consumption and consumer culture, the discussion about the balance of the positively stimulating role and costs of the consumer attitudes as the basis of social behavior does not stop. The greatest danger of consumerism for a person lies, however, not in the socio-economic, but in the ethical-psychological aspect of a person’s life. This study seeks to clarify in which categories it is possible to achieve a productive understanding of the role of greed in the development of a person’s spiritual world. A comparative analysis of the reasoning of the classics of Christian and atheistic humanistic ethics makes it possible to see the specifics of the anthropological consideration of greed and draw conclusions about the relevance of educational and pedagogical support to people who have taken the path to combat this spiritual ailment.

How does the art community evaluate contemporary art? This question is discussed based on 16 interviews with artists, gallery owners, curators, and collectors. The contemporary art market is conceptualized as a “creative industry that unites actors involved in the production, distribution, and consumption of art objects. The research methodology is based on the anthropological approach of Igor Kopytoff and the discursive psychology of Rom Harré, according to which the history of the movement of cultural objects through social space and the discourses accompanying them are sources of symbolic values. Market practices of art distribution are described: criteria for selecting artists by galleries, legal aspects of distribution and consumption of art objects, informal purchasing practices, moral and pragmatic taboos on buying art objects. Four logics of justifying the value of art objects — “commercial success,” “testimony of the times,” “intellectual development,” “emotional experience”—have been reconstructed. It is demonstrated that consumption as a collector's practice requires following the rules of a “professional approach” to be recognized in the art community.
